"It really reduces featherseed and everything else in the cage and off the floor."

— Sharon

"This is the dumbest thing I've seen in a long time! ... There is no zipper or buttons. The material is beyond sub par and by the looks of this, there's no way this is going to help with the mess of all the seeds being flung around. Totally not what I expected, and this is nothing but a piece of junk..."
