Aspects 395 Quick-Clean Seed Tube Bird Feeder - Medium Size in Antique Brass - Perfect for Backyard Bird Watching & Garden Decoration

Wow! This feeder is impressive. Very sturdy. The bottom opens up easily for cleaning that bottom area that is so hard to clean on tube feeders. I also ordered the optional seed tray for the doves that frequent our feeder. It attached easily with no tools.Love how easy it is to remove the base. I bought this to replace an old D.Y. tube feeder that was too hard to clean. Birds tried this one within 30 minutes of filling and hanging it, and after a day it became their favorite feeder (I have several). I think the feeding ports are a little low for birds the size of red-winged blackbirds although they manage. It's just right for sparrows, finches, nuthatches, chickadees and downy woodpeckers. But some birds such as cardinals and the larger woodpeckers have never shown an interest in tube feeders.I'm old and I've been feeding birds a long time. I've used dozens and dozens of different birdfeeders. Aspect stands out as one of the best ever. Sturdy. Easy to fill. Easier to clean than most. Worth the extra price.Very sturdyHave had these bird feeders before and they are definitely a good value but it is amazing they made it undamaged. Vendor needs to improve their packing. Wish I had took a picture.Very sturdy. Totally worth the investment. Beautiful and functional.What's great about Aspects feeders is in the name: Quick-Clean. I love being able to just push in the buttons and pull out the bottom of the feeder. Then I just clean the bottom parts and the tube, let it dry and easily reassemble.Not as efficient as our other feeder, of about the same size, but we can’t find that anymore. It came from England at least 20 years ago and has a double tube arrangement, which still works. The outer tube supplies seed to the top 3 perches, and the inner tube supplies the bottom 3 perches. In this way, the tubes being the same volume, all feeding stations run out at about the same time. With the Aspects it’s a simpler design so we are finding it necessary to refill more often if the top stations are to always have seed available. Still it seems to be nice feeder considering what else is out there. Very little seed spills onto the floor below, though this could be something desirable if you have a lot of birds visiting. Its weakest feature may be the tube wall, it's quite thin, I would estimate 0.05 thick, and doesn't look like it will withstand much abuse. In the heat and dryness of the High Desert where we live plastic this fragile doesn't usually do very well. Update... We are finding that the lower ports soon get starved of seed, even after giving it a good shake these do not fill. And it’s very puzzling but for some reason, perhaps due to a restricted seed flow the birds, house finches mostly, are not attracted to this feeder much at all, but still use the English version out back. We don’t understand it but for now have resorted to an open tray out front, which unfortunately attracts pigeons, at least until a replacement tube feeder is found which works for us. A couple of the plastic sleeves on the perches themselves have been chewed off, go figure, it’s not by squirrels, but we can’t locate any replacements.Excellent feeder. Aspects makes great feeders that you can easily remove bottom and clean. By pressing in the sides and removing bottom. Then it clicks back in. Very good quality.very good! please note the tube is plastic, I suppose it is glass at the time of purchase, but it is fine. It is a bit small if you plan to feed a lot of bird. I feed a full load and birds finish it in less than one week.Very, very well made feeder. At first I thought it seemed somewhat small and I feared having to fill it often; however the circumference is bigger than another taller one that I have. As soon as I put this feeder up, I had chickadees and cardinals feeding from it.Great birdfeeder, durable.Aspects is a quality birdfeeder in everyway. Very easy to keep clean . The only downside is the 2 perches ( which I was aware of when I bought). If you have lots of birds, you definitely need a medium to large feeder.
