5.0 out of 5 stars The Hummers Love It, September 9, 2009

We bought 2 feeders, one for each side of the house. We hung them from a chain so they are 5' above the ground. The birds swarm to them 3 or 4 at at time at different times of the day. We have tried other feeders and the H828 and prefer this model because it is easy to assemble and reload with nectar and,of course, the birds seem to like them too. They will tilt slightly to one side if the nectar level gets low but this is a good indicator that it is time to refill. This feeder is worth the few extra dollars it might cost over cheaper models.

We feed about 100 hummers in the winter, 150 in the summer, and have for 40 years (98% are Annas and Allens); and always have 9 or 10 of these up and running. We have tried most of the feeders on the market, discussed others with those who have them, and this is clearly the best. It's little pricy, only lasts a decade or so in our mild NorCal climate (!), and is not very easy to clean--get a bottle-cleaning brush and a tiny nozzle brush for that. But it never spills over in hot weather if you don't overfill it, unlike all the gravitational feed feeders, it feeds 8 birds at a time (for a long time), and it's easy to keep bees off--at worst, a tiny sideways spray with flying insect spray will keep them off, without any going into the feeding tubes, or any bee fatalities. On the best evening fill-up times, we have at least 12 birds circling or on each feeder, and the noise of the wings is up there with massive duck raft take-offs; so the customers approve! Many of them would not get through the cold spells--freezing and snow--we get occasionally without this battery.

This hummingbird feeder works great. I have had no tilting problems at all. If hung properly (chain, etc.)it should hang level.
Hummingbirds started using it the first day it was out. Cleaning is easy if you remove the nectar guard tips and use the small
brush that comes with it to clean them and flowers. I have had many Droll Yankee products and all have worked great.
