Although attractive, this horrible product trapped a tiny little chickadee as it tried to perch on the stand (I ground-mounted it). We discovered him after he had nearly pecked his own leg off trying to escape. I was able to free him by prying the bars of the mounting stand apart, all the while scaring the poor creature closer to death, and he was finally able to fly off where I'm certain he will die, either from trauma or an infection. I'm terribly disappointed with this product. Please be aware of this awful flaw and don't use the stand to mount the bowl.

I used the metal base to set the bird bath in the ground. On two separate occasions, a gold finch became trapped in the metal bars of the stand by its wings. The first time it happened, I figured it was some kind of weird freak occurrence. The second time, I immediately took the bird bath down. Thankfully both times I was able to gently release the bird with no obvious damage. Please don't use this product with the metal gound stand.

Run! Rust spots within weeks (the brass/copper finish is about a micron thick), rust HOLES within a year. Virtually impossible to install on the stand. This product is junk, junk, junk!

I'm disappointed in the product because rust spots started appearing in the bottom within the first month to six weeks .

This was a huge disappointment. This basin is not "sparkling copper" as stated in the description...it is more like a dull, flat, terracotta color. I highly doubt it is even copper...it looks more like a painted metal bowl. Or maybe it is made of some sort of "Chinese copper" that I've never seen before.

The photo of this item looks great -- actually looks like a copper basin. This is not what I received, however. The Nature's Room representative explained that in order to save money, the manufacturer "thinned" the copper a little so that is why it looks different. I feel like an idiot for ordering this. I will definitely be returning it.
