We’ve tested this feeder ourselves, and guarantee this is the Fort Knox of squirrel-proof birdfeeders. Made of powder-coated galvanized steel, it has an adjustable weight-sensitive perch that completely seals off the feeding port when a squirrel or large bird lands on it. Feeder includes both a hanger and a 58" mounting pole.

Comments about Absolute Squirrel-Proof Feeder:

This is my second absolute feeder. My first lasted over 15 years. The squirrels finally loosened the top so they could get it open. Also the dowel broke that the birds landed on.

Comments about Absolute Squirrel-Proof Feeder:

Placed it outside my kitchen window. Had it set for smaller birds and am seeing so many varieties. It has added to my enjoyment working in the kitchen. Have already taken photos through the window and look forward to spring when I can have the window open - photos will be sharper clarity. Thoroughly enjoying the addition to my garden.

I had my old absolute for 15 years, so when I saw it on sale, I bought a new one. This is a great feeder for smaller birds and it is fun to watch the squirrels try to get on it.

Comments about Absolute Squirrel-Proof Feeder:

I have purchased "squirrelproof" feeders in the past that were destroyed within weeks. This is the first and only feeder that has confounded the aggressive squirrel population in my yard. The best thing is, small birds that were frightened away in the past are now congregating on this feeder because the squirrels can't get to them. And because the feeder holds so much food, I don't have to refill so often.

Great gift for your birdlover!!!!

Pros:

Good Value

Cons:

Post too short

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Absolute Squirrel-Proof Feeder:

The feeder seems robust and lives up to promises. The post is shorter then ideal and not quite as thick and sturdy as we'd like.
