I have purchased this feeder about a week ago and I just love it. I'm back here to purchase 2 more. I live on 3 acres of wooded land and I have a ton of squirrels that have defeated every feeder I have ever tried. After a week they are still trying but they have not been able to beat this feeder! Easy to assemble, easy to fill and holds a lot of seed. After a week of heavy activity I still have 3/4 of the feeder still full.
My woodpeckers are back and goldfinches which were a rarity are now a common site several times a day! I'm using the same high quality seed, but they just seem to like this feeder better. I thought they might be able to chew through the cylinder but so far so good. That this is covered for life makes it a worthwhile investment. I just wish I would have gotten one sooner...I would have saved a fortune in bird seed.
I've never been cheap on my feeders...always getting the best of what I thought was available and this feeder is actually less expensive then the last one they destroyed so I feel it is well worth the money. I have yet to take it apart, clean it and put it back together...I only do that once a month. If I find any issues with that I will update and lower my stars.
I plan I purchasing several more for holiday gifts.
UPDATE: I've had the feeder for about 4 months now. The squirrels gave up after about a month and don't go near it anymore. I found that as long as I clean the feeders every month or so, the seed stays dry even though I don't keep the feeder in a covered area like an overhang. CLEANING: it's important to clean these feeders or else mold will accumulate by the feeding holes and can harm the birds. I found disassembling the unit very easy and although it can go in the dishwasher, it cleans so fast with hot water I just do it by hand. I know this next warning is wasted on the guys but I will say it anyway: GO TO THE YOU TUBE VIDEO on how to disassemble before you try to clean this or I promise you will regret it. Even though I had watched the video once I still forgot the trick about sticking your fingers in the feeding holes to release the tube for cleaning (when you see the video you'll understand). Once taken apart it is a snap to clean and very easy to put back together. Just go the the Brome site or do a youtube seach on "How to clean a Brome birdfeeder". I can say I am more than happy with the money spent on this feeder, it was more than worth the price tag and I highly recommend it.
UPDATE: well I've had the bird feeders for over a year now and they continue to work wonderfully. The squirrels have given up on them although occasionally they pop by to try to foil them but are unsuccessful. The birdfeeders remain in good working order and they are very easy to clean. These feeders are worth every penny I paid for them.

TRULY SQUIRREL-PROOF FEEDERS BUILT TO LAST!

CLEANING YOUR FEEDER
· Frequency of cleaning varies according to climate.
· Heavy bird traffic can increase the frequency of cleaning.
· Washing by Hand. Wear Gloves!
· Dismantle and discard any accumulation of wild bird food.
· Wash by hand in warm soapy water and/or in 1/10 bleach solution.
· Make sure all components are completely dry before assembling.
· Warning: Bird droppings contain contaminants. Avoid skin contact.
HOW IT WORKS
Openings in the shroud align with the feeding ports, providing birds access to the food. When a squirrel climbs onto the feeder, its weight automatically forces the shroud down, closing access to the ports. Squirrels and some large birds are foiled but not harmed in any way.
PERCHING OPTIONS
Posi Grip Perch System
Thick, adjustable-length perches with textured surfaces provide a secure and comfortable grip for birds. Attract small birds such as Chickadees and Finches (while deterring some larger birds) by shortening the perches. Perches can also be extended just enough to attract medium-sized birds including Grosbeaks and Woodpeckers.
Cardinal Ring System
Cardinals prefer to face their food source as they have difficulty turning their heads to feed. The custom grip profile of our patented Cardinal Ring System allows them to perch
securely and feed comfortably.

WHERE TO LOCATE YOUR PLUSPosition your feeder wherever you like to get great close-up views of your favorite birds. Hang it over a window, in a tree, on a deck, from a fence, in your garden, on the side of your house, from a rain trough or over sliding doors. Use brackets, extension hooks and tree hooks to hang your feeder at the 18-inch (47 cm) recommended clearance. |
NEED FOR CLEARANCERemember it’s a squirrel’s weight that triggers the closing mechanism. If a squirrel can reach over from a nearby foothold and avoid placing its weight on the feeder, it can access the birdseed. To overcome this problem, allow for at least 18 in/47 cm of clearance around the feeder. This will force the squirrel to climb onto the feeder and trigger the closing mechanism. |
DETACHABLE COMPONENT SYSTEMSquirrel Buster Plus is designed to be dismantled by hand into individual components without the use of tools. This allows for easy cleaning and maintenance. |

Great squirrel proof bird feeder
We’ve really enjoyed this bird feeder! We have it in front of our window, and we get to see so many beautiful birds! AND, no squirrels! The squirrels tried, but finally gave up. As soon as they stand on it, the feeder holes close. Squirrels don’t visit at all now. We’ve had it for several years, leave it out 12 months a year, and it still looks brand new. It’s durable, easy to clean, and the green color blends in with our bushes. We have it hanging on a hook, and it works great! I highly recommend!
