Aesthetically very pleasing and modern looking. Deep blue is a very pretty color. Feeder has been popular with fledging blue birds as well as finches, chickadees, and nuthatches. Swapped this feeder for another established one and birds started using it within a day. Retains seeds well, relatively easy to clean. Would be easier to clean if bottom removable but using larger seeds like shelled sunflowers and mealworms makes it easier rinse with garden hose.
