Just received and looks acceptable and feels sturdy. But, the "perches" - where the birds sit - don't stay in and slide right out by just tipping the feeder a wee bit. Certainly any moderate wind would throw the perches right out. I had to use Elmers Glue to glue all the perches into place. I was looking for a feeder that didn't drop seed all over the gravel below. In this feeder, there is no "lip" at the bottom of each feeder hole to prevent seed from dropping out. We just had our yard landscaped and our old bird feeders, although they had "troughs" around the perimeter, still dropped seed on the gravel. As a result we now have sprouts of green coming through the gravel below our bird feeders. So, looks like we're back to square one.
