“Quick delivery. Wide top means I can fill it with seed scoop without spilling any seed. The seed lasts longer now that squirrels jackdaws and pigeons can’t get any.
It would be nice to have similarly designed peanut feeder.”
“We never got the bird feeder due to the incompetence of the delivery company. So can not comment! After failing to deliver on two consecutive agreed days with no explanation they agreed to leave with a neighbour on day 3 but still didn’t deliver. Day 4 ( Friday) it still did not arrive so we asked Vine House what was happening. They arranged redelivery for Monday 3 days later. Not Vine House’s fault but we cancelled our order.”
Thank you for your review, we are so sorry to hear of your experience with the delivery company, we hope we have the chance for you to have a better experience next time!
“At last I've found a feeder that has defeated the squirrels and rats. Easy to fill and clean and keeps the seed dry in wet weather. Vine House Farm should make more of the rat deterrent features of this feeder as they have become as much of a problem as squirrels.”
“I have the original Squirrel Buster feeder but wanted one with a bigger food capacity so chose the Evolution. It’s ok but has two drawbacks: 1 there is no adjustment to the spring tension and Starlings can manage to get their beaks into the half closed feeder holes to gobble lots of food; 2 unlike the originalSB feeder my normal garden birds are not keen to use the Evolution and will use a suet ball feeder and other feeders I’ve put alongside to test out my observations”
“Am very pleased with this new squirrel proof bird feeder. It is far better than my previous one as the seeds are much better protected from getting wet. It took a few days for the birds to adapt to it but now the seeds are disappearing rapidly!!!!”
“Whilst I have purchased 2 'top of the range' Squirrel Buster Plus Bird Seed Feeders over the years, they have all eventually developed a fault. The last one, which came from the RSPB didn't last very long, with the clear plastic main tube cracking at the base and ultimately failing. It had never been dropped or mishandled, so I can only assume that it was sun exposure that led to the plastic tube failing. I bought the Evolution which seems to be of a much better design, with less chance of seed clogging at the bottom of the feeder and much easier to clean. However, though it's been in the garden for 3 weeks only a very small amount of seeds have been eaten. Maybe this will increase as the temperature falls. Goldfinches in particular seem to not be able to use the feeder for some reason and I watch them fluttering around, apparently not able or confident to land. We'll see. But I hope they will eventually get used to this new 'object 'in the garden.”
