Good news, bad news.
The good news: Yes, It is aromatic cedar wood.
The bad news: It's assembled in China with staples which tend to split the wood. The floor is of 1/8" lauan plywood material (a little stronger than paste board). The dimensions are totally wrong and misleading. The actual size of the bird house is 6.5" tall x 6.75" wide x 7.5" deep (that's measuring the roof, the actual house is 4.75" x 5.75")
Shipping: It is shipped with very little packing. Mine arrived with the top cracked down the middle from being crushed.
BUYER BEWARE!

this item was exactly as described- we would have been happier with it if it had been packed better for shipping. It moved in the shipping box and the top split in half so it needed gluing before we could use the house for our little feathered friends!

The price was right - right for a birdhouse with a cracked roof. The birdhouse was shipped with a staple holding the roof together over the crack. You get what you pay for and this was very cheap.

I ordered one wren house, and when it arrived, I thought it was well made, and a reasonable price. I ordered two more. The houses are sturdy, the entrance hole is exactly the right size, and the style is appealing. Now, we have to see if the wrens agree.

Although this birdhouse was inexpensive, it should not be advertised as a wren house. The entry hole is too big. A wren doesn't have a chance as the sparrows will definitely take residence first.

This is a cute little bird house, but the hole is way too large for wrens. I will try to find something to put in the circle to make it smaller.

Very cute, all right, but came with a gouge (not so cute) in the roof!

I am pleased with this birdhouse, although I don't know yet if the birds will agree. It's sturdy, aromatic, adequate ventilation, has a strong hanger, and the roof lifts up for inspection or easy cleaning. And you simply will not find a better price for a good sized bird house. Hoping the birds will agree and if they do, I'll definitely be back for more.

because of the vents on either side, the wind just blows right through. I think because of this no birds made a nest here. this was an amazon purchase.

I bought this for my Dad who loves to bird watch.

The wrens seem to like it as they set up a little home pretty quick.

It is a pretty plain birdhouse, but that is exactly what my dad wanted.

The construction isn't great (staples) but it does the job. Easy to hang too.

I didn't have any problem with the shipping. Came to me in good shape. I also didn't care to much about the specifications being a little off.
