Birds loved it a little too much and the black birds added too much weight and tipped my stand over after 3 days
Prevention: You may put the stand is really strong.
The lid doesnβt even come close to fitting bottom. One of the posts is taller and impossible to made lid fit on straight. VERY disappointed in quality of this feeder. Going to have to order something different as this one is VERY poorly made
Prevention: You may need to select a different feeds, then may install the stand.
