I will say that I'm 100% impressed with the quality of the speeder. I have always fed the birds and had different feeders for them, lots of which which broke quickly. This one is amazing! It's the perfect size and made extremely well for me to feel confident that it will last for a long time.  The bottom part is a mesh to allow know any moisture to go through but extremely high quality. Definitely recommend this. Anyone looking for a new bird feeder?.
