    I purchased these items for my butterfly garden. The bottoms fell out after a rainstorm, making these butterfly houses useless as anything other than a decoration.

    It looks nice but had I looked at it closer I would have noticed the
    poor construction, the materials are very bad, fiberboard base with
    metal bottom. Right there weigh is an issue.

    Comments about Butterfly Shelter:

    I bought this for my mother, and she loved it. Although it's the wrong season yet for butterflies, she put it out in the garden because she liked the look. I does brighten things up in the grey days of winter. I expect it will be worth the price even if the butterflies don't like it, but we are both hoping that the butterflies do find it useful in the spring and summer! We did not notice any of the problems other reviewers had with the bottom panel--ours seemed very sturdy.

    I had alot of butterflies in my garden this year as I have in past year's but none went near their supposed shelter. It look's cute hanging there, a waste of money though. I should have put my investment in another plant that feed's the lovely creatures.

    Comments about Butterfly Shelter:

    Although it is asthetically pleasing, for the cost
    It is defintely not well made and not durable.
    I have resently seen other butterfly respites at
    other stores and for the cost they are very durable.
    I happy with the appearance and I am hoping that
    it will endure the seasons of spring and summer.

    Comments about Butterfly Shelter:

    I have had my shelter for over 2 years and have never had a problem with it. However, I do place it under the eaves so it is mostly sheltered from the elements. I don't see a lot of butterflys around so don't know if it really works as a shelter. It does look very pretty though.

    Comments about Butterfly Shelter:

    Love the item. Disappointed in construction as bottom fell off shortly after we hung it in the yard. Have super-glued it back and fingers crossed it holds. Is this a common complaint? Did I get a "lemon" ?? It isn't getting heavy use and we are in a moderate climate.
    Hope your other products are more durable. Not sure I will buy your line again.

    Comments about Butterfly Shelter:

    I was extremely disappointed in this product. The bottom of the box fell off after being in the garden for only one week. It apparently was glued on and did not hold up. I would send it back but do not want to incur any more expense. I considered trying to glue back but the bottom does not match up well with the box and I don't think it would work. A lesson learned for me.

    I bought this as a close-out item on sale, and it is very cute. However within 4-6 weeks I had to ask to have it replaced because the base was pulling away from the sides. [...]This may be ok for dry climates but not for the rainy NE.

    Comments about Butterfly Shelter:

    Looks very attractive hanging near one of my butterfly bushes. However, I'm not sure if any butterflies actually are using it since I've never spotted any entering or leaving! Since our property has been designated by the National Wildlife Federation as a wildlife habitat, this little butterfly house adds another opportunity for us to offer these beautiful specimens a place to shelter.

    Comments about Butterfly Shelter:

    I bought the Bittersweet Butterfly Shelter for my brother-in-law, who keeps a lovely backyard garden here in Michigan. None of the family had ever seen a butterfly "house"...so it was an instant hit. Add to that the very, very high quality of the product, and the gift was "over the top." My brother-in-law was very impressed, and as such, I, the gift-giver, scored high marks. He's looking forward to Spring so he can set it up and watch butterflies visit their new home. I love the uniqueness, price, and quality of this product, and I will certainly buy from Gardeners Supply again!

    Comments about Butterfly Shelter:

    Don't know about attracting butterflies nor how long it will last, but for now it looks great hanging from the shepherds hook. Melds perfectly with fall colors. Entire construction is tin (?) so shouldn't disintegrate in rain like fiberboard does. Hook for clean out door doesn't work but I'll be happy if that becomes a problem.

    It looks wonderful in my yard which no longer has grass, but has a lot of flowers and other plants. My friends like it as well. I live in Florida so can enjoy it year round.

    Comments about Butterfly Shelter:

    This was a pretty accent hanging in my butterfly garden. After a few weeks the bottom fell out onto the ground. I thought it was just fitted onto the main box but the bottom had been glued to a narrow strip of the wood and just gave way with no bad weather or rain or wind being a factor. Don't know why it would have been made that way. I hope I can glue it back so it stays. It looked great until it fell apart.

    Very pretty but mine must have been defective. Put it up early summer and lasted until the end of August, warped and fell apart.

    I gave this as a gift to my daughter who lives in a townhouse. It looks beautiful on her front porch. Even if it doesn't attract the proper animal it is still an attractive addition to her porch.
