Schrodt FGHF-R Ruby Faceted Glass Hummingbird Feeder

Beautiful when new. Real copper bottom, and very easy to clean. However I thought it was red glass. It's clear glass, covered by red cellophane which starts peeling off soon after purchase. I'm going to attempt to get my money back.

I would have been 100% satisfied had the glass actually been red. It's clear glass with red paint, and the two I own started to flake within a month. Isn't it common knowledge that paint does not stick to glass well?? Why would you make a product like this? I've had mine for 8 months and I'm left with blotchy feeders that I paid over $30 for, thanks Schrody...

I do have a couple positives things to say about the feeder. I like the capacity and the copper plate on the base. The capacity is small, but I like that because it helps me keep the food fresh. I love that the plate is actually copper, and not plated or coated with anything, so it actually changes color instead of rusting like so many other feeders on the market do. If they were to fix the problem with the painted bottle, they would have a good product worth the price. Until then, I would not recommend this to my friends.

Since I was paying about 3 times the price of a regular feeder, I thought it would be of superior quality. Not really. The glass isn't stained. It's a cheap red coating which will peal off after about 3 washings. Nice looking -- for about a week.
