This review is from: Perky Pet 50153 The Lodge Cedar Feeder, 8 lb capacity (Lawn & Patio) Simple design but has a flaw that you may not notice unless pointed out. If you don't mind excessive amounts of uneaten seed all around your feeder this isn't even a flaw. If you look at the picture where the chickadee's are you may notice that where the seed falls out is a trough of sorts. The trough is basically the outer edge of the bottom board of the feeder. The board has "trim" that makes a lip so the seed doesn't spill out immediately. What they forgot was a lip on either end by the suet feeder. I simply cut a 2"x2" pressure treated board I had laying around and made two end pieces to finish the lip all the way around the feeder. Just that 1/2 lip on each end keep 80% off the feed in the feeder which is where I prefer to view my birds.
Otherwise good product and great shipping. 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful: Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Perky Pet 50153 The Lodge Cedar Feeder, 8 lb capacity (Lawn & Patio) I looked at many stores to try and find a wooden feeder that had a large capacity, easy filling, and a descent "lip" so the food didn't just fall out. After striking out at all of the local stores - I found this one, and after receiving it I'm very pleased with the purchase. It has a decent capacity and is very easy to fill. 9 of 9 people found the following review helpful: Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Perky Pet 50153 The Lodge Cedar Feeder, 8 lb capacity (Lawn & Patio) This feeder has a large capacity, so you don't have to fill it constantly.
It looks good and it's well constructed. I put a few coats of thompsons water seal on it for good measure. I would guess that we will enjoy watching the birds at this feeder for years to come. (not to mention the squirrels) |
