This feeder is a great little feeder for the money. I especially love the twist on/off top. It makes filling so easy and you can count on the fact that the feeder won't tip and spill half of the seed you just put in. The light green color is also nice, as it doesn't show sun fade. I will probably be buying more of this item.

I purchased this for my mom to watch the birds from her window. It was easy to attach to her window and easy to fill. When she checked to see why not a single bird was visiting --she noticed water (rain) entered into the feeding holes and froze the seed solid! She emptied it and tried again and it happened again. Maybe it would work in a covered area, but not in an area exposed to wet conditions.

I have both this and the larger EZ fill feeder. While I think all the First Flight feeders are better than most feeders out there (durbable, inexpensive, looks nice), this one, unlike the larger EZ fill, seems to spill a lot of seeds. A larger feeder like the EZ fill also doesn't have to be filled as often.

This is a very good product. Birds have no problem feeding; food does not fall out

This is an easy to fill, attractive bird feeder. It is not of high quality materials - the plastic of the body of the bird feeder is only slight better quality than a two-liter soda bottle. But for the price, I think it is fine. The lid screws on tightly and has a good seal. At first I was a bit disappointed that it just has a small eyehole for hanging it - I pondered over what to use to hang it. But then I unscrewed the lid and discovered there is a small S hook taped inside the lid. It will be very adequate for hanging on a (slender) shepherd's hook or small branch.

I rate it five stars based on what you get for the price. If it cost $20, I would NOT have rated it 5 stars. There are certainly better quality bird feeders out there if you are willing to spend more money. But if your price point is around $6, then this is a 5 star product in that price range.

Birds love this feeder, starting with south florida summer we have sparrows, bluejays, black birds, cardinals, all have a different way to feed.

Sparrows are about the only birds around here that can feed from this bird feeder. I also have robins and doves that nest near here but they can't seem to stand on the feeder and feed. It is easy to load but the local sparrows can eat a full load of bird seed in a couple of hours.

Very nice feeder love watching the birds gather to eat at the feeder near my balcony

As soon as it rains, the food gets wet and molds. I suppose it would be ok in a covered area...

I purchased these feeders to attract more than just hummingbirds to our garden. Birds are natural insect repellents, so attracting them to our organic garden was already in the planning phase! This feeder was incredibly easy to install, is not easily accessed by squirrels or other critters, and attracts a wide variety of beautiful birds to our garden area. I have one in the front and one in the backyard, and love sitting on the patio watching our winged visitors come and go from the yard.
