“We have a lot of birds in our neighborhood and our backyard looks like a squirrel super highway. We have an Asian pear tree that we can never get fruit from because the squirrels steal every single pear. Our cats are indoor only so we wanted a bird feeder outside so they can watch the birds for entertainment, we call it Cat TV but didn't want the squirrels to abscond with all the bird feed. This feeder is awesome. The pools come in multiple sections so we could make it taller or shorter. We wanted it tall so we could see it out of our windows more easily. We had watered the night before, so our ground was pretty soft. I got a 2x4 and put it on top of the pole section that would go into the ground and then hammered onto the wood so I didn't ruin the metal pole. After a few good solid hits, the pole was about 6 inches into the ground, making it really stable for the feeder way at the top with lots of bird activity (hopefully). We have big birds in our neighborhood so we went with sunflower hearts and the whole thing has been a hit with birds of all sizes. Birds will grip the little perches and eat the seed, and we were right, the cats love it. I come out in the morning to see them watching intently while the birds feed. I have seen squirrels on the ground at the foot of the feeder, but unable to reach the goodies inside.
This has been a winner!”
“1. Very easy assembly and very easy installation. It took under 15 min for the whole setup.
2. Simple mechanism and very effective
3. Well built and solid construction.
4. It has a huge capacity
5. Instead of plastic, they could have used glass for the transparent part of the feeder since plastic May eventually degrade due to UV radiation.”
“This feeder is the perfect addition to our yard. It is definitely very well made and sturdy. It is squirrel proof, and it's big and holds a lot of feed. So the upkeep on it is low. Which that's a huge plus for us also. We like it!!”
“I love watching the birds feed and I have several feeders, however the squirrels get most of the feed from those! The Bird Choice feeder allows me to feed only the birds and I don't have to fill it so often.”
“This Birds Choice feeder is a great product. It is very easy to put together to install. The feeder is very large and holds a ton of seed. The cover is powder-coated steel so that will be durable. The reservoir is plastic which seems well constructed. I would prefer if it were glass since the Texas sun can be tough on plastic but it is holding up great so far. Our squirrels have not been able to get onto the feeder and so it is quite effective!”
“The pole allows you to place it directly into the ground and is also thick and solid. It is not bendy at all. I needed a wide flat hammer to get it into the ground, and the feeder is placed on top. The top of the feeder comes off to fill with a wide opening, so easy to fill. It rocks, so making it a lot harder for squirrels to get into it. So far we have only seen birds feeding from it, which is awesome. Since the feeder lifts off the pole, it will be a breeze to bring in when a spring storm rolls. Can't find any negatives. It really exceeded my expectations!”
“I'm excited to set up and use my new bird feeder! It's the Squirrel-proof pole mounted classic feeder made by Birds choice. It holds 5lbs of bird seed, which should last about a week in my yard. I've had a problem in the past with the squirrels getting into my bird feeders and ruining them, so I hope this product does as it claims!”
“I have several bird feeders that claim to be squirrel proof. This one actually is! I’ve watched it for several days now and not one little critter has been able to get to the bird seed! That a win for the birds and me!! Very happy with my selection.”
