Product Description

Product Description

Brome 1024 Squirrel Buster Plus Wild Bird Feeder with Cardinal Perch Ring. This posigrip ring system has been specifically designed to attract cardinals. These perennial favorites have two very distinct features: small necks and big feet. They prefer gripping a thicktextured perch and facing their food source directly. Cardinals dislike turning their heads to feed. The Squirrel Buster Plus Cardinal Ring perch system allows them to eat facing the seed while providing a secure and comfortable perch. These cardinalfriendly feeding features combined with a bush level location make Squirrel Buster Plus very inviting to cardinals. The seed ports close automatically when a squirrel climbs onto the feeder. Birdwatch America's Best New Product Award. Seed capacity: 3 quarts.

Blue Jays too smart for this dumb feeder

Rating: 1 (2008-11-28)

This feeder worked fine for about two weeks, until the blue jays realized that they could perch IN THE FOOD HOLES and eat out of adjacent holes, thereby foiling the perch weighting mechanism.

Brome had better go back to the drawing board; this feeder just is not clever enough for certain species.

Just a great, durable bird feeder

We have had this bird feeder for years but unfortunately, it was just pulled down and destroyed by black bears when we left it out overnight accidentally. The quality has been great, it hardly weathered at all over the years. It does a perfect job of keeping the squirrels and larger birds off of it. Another benefit is that the seed stays inside the unit so when it rains, the seed stays dry. I've given this bird feeder to a family member as a Christmas gift idea for us to replace the one recently destroyed because we liked it so much and want to have another!

works good

Only had the bird feeder up a week or so. So far the small birds love it. We have had a blue jay on and it only partly closed down but did hinder the bird some what for feeding. Have not had any squirrels try it out yet. Feel it was a worth while investment.

Great Bird Feeder if set up right

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R1JBUQ883HRRO7 Overall, I am pleased with this feeder. The construction is excellent and I've been enjoying the return of my titmice. You've got to hang the feeder, though, where squirrls can't hang from a branch and hold down the ring and get to the seed. Squirrels must be very smart. I'm still trying to find the right location. I'll probably buy another. 5 stars!

Frustrate the squirrels

Rating: 5 (2008-09-25)

We got our feeder about a week ago, and it took only a couple of days to realize it really does work -- the squirrels quit trying after a day! One night we came home and found the feeder on the ground -- it is normally mounted on the deck about 10 feet above the ground. The cardinal ring was off and a perch was bent. The perch screws out, so I was able to straighten it in my vice -- well-designed product. All is OK now; the is feeder hung so that the critters will need pliers to get it off. A couple nites ago we heard a noise on the deck. Turned out to be a raccoon trying to get into the feeder. He/she was totally frustrated and finally ambled off the deck and into the woods. Over the years we have had a variety of squirrel-proof feeders; this is the first one I would say really is squirrel-proof.
