I just ordered an additional three of these hummingbird feeders. In the past I had used several other hummingbird feeders -- until I discovered this one. The GLASS bottle holds a lot, is easily cleaned, & is practically indestructible! (Mine has even survived a black bear "attack," though the plastic bottom was not as fortunate.) I would highly recommend it.

I have to say this is a nice looking feeder and the hummingbirds seem to be attracted to it but we are having two problems with it. First off, when the wind blows-and it blows nearly every day here- the feeder rocks back and forth and will empty itself in one day without a bird ever landing on it. The other problem that we have with it is the plastic wrapped wire that it uses to hold the feeder. It will unwrap itself slowly and if you do not keep a close eye on it will completely unwind and crash to the ground. Ours has done this twice in the short time we have used it and has had to be glued back together after crashing on a landscape block of concrete. If this piece of wire was lengthened we could tie a knot in it but there is not enough length to do that. If these two things were remedied it would be a much better feeder.
