+ The feeder was shipped fast & it well packed,It was in good condition when I received it.
+It is well constructed,should last a long time.
+ It will collapse for easy storage in the off season.
+ It is easy to hang from a sturdy handle that makes it easy to carry.
+It is easy to fill from the top with a large opening.
It has a nice perch but it's too close to the feeder for large birds .
The ad said it was made for corn,I'm useing milo,so it will work ok with smaller seed than corn.
-The weather cover is too small to reach around the feeder I had to improvise to make it work.I have not contacted the Co. because I think it might strech with time.
- To fill the feeder two wing nuts must be removed,they are small & easy to lose.I dropped one in the leaves in the woods & had to replace.
It needs a hinge type lid with a latch,whitch I plan to install myself.
Over all it's a good feeder,it just needs to be fine tuned.

Awesome product, I bought one and tried it and had to get another one. Just make sure you have the camo cover on the feeder before you fill it full of corn, the feeder will swell out quite a bit.
My first feeder has been in the woods for 3 months running on the first set of batteries and hasn't quit yet. The deer just keep coming back!

if you are looking for a feeder that is cheap (not made cheap) this is a good starter feeder. I wanted a feeder that was easy to setup and if stolen easy (cheap) to replace. I'm happy with it and I look forward to using it again next year.

great product, simple to use, very portable, easily concealed and set up was a snap, highly recommend this product.

Put the corn in, took it to the woods, thing would not work. Sent it back. Can't get another one. Looks like a good Idea but needs a lot more quality.

Prompt shipment, item packaged well. Great item at a great price. Have only had it up a couple of days The Hive Automatic Wildlife Feederand haven't seen my first deer but I know they are out there. Am very pleased and will order from The Sportsman's Guide thru Amazon again.

I bought one of these feeders 2 years ago and very pleased on how long the 2 (9 volt) bateries would last. It feeds twice a day and clock keeps feeding times almost to the minute. When i saw these 2 for sale i had to buy!
Hold 50lbs.of corn and can be concealed and weatherproofed. Also throw wheel can be adjusted for more or less corn dispensed at each feeding. You cant go wrong with this feeder!!
