"This is the second time I purchased this and the birds absolutely love it you can’t go wrong with this birdfeeder because it’s easy all you have to do is hang it and it’s ready to go. Now to grab my coffee and wait to see the beautiful birds. I received cash back for the purchase of this item ..."

"Hung this up and did not attract any birds. Broke it up and put on sock hanger and that did not work. Finally threw it out and replaced with the previous sock hanger that I had. Disappointed."

Bottom Line

If your goal is to attract a variety of birds, consider other alternatives. The bar itself is easy to use and clean, but it's effectiveness in attracting birds. This might be a good try, but for best results remember birds might need some time to figure out the new feeder.
