Review: Very Effective Squirrel-Proof Feeder, Though Earlier Version Was Built Better - I’m still giving this Perky-Pet Squirrel-Be-Gone feeder five stars overall because it absolutely does what it’s meant to do, but there are some noticeable differences between units purchased months apart that are worth mentioning. Functionally, it works great. From a build and design standpoint, the older version was better. The squirrel-proof design is the main reason to buy this feeder, and it works extremely well. The weight-activated perches do exactly what they’re supposed to. Birds can feed comfortably, but the moment a squirrel tries to climb on, the ports shut down. That alone makes this feeder a win, especially if squirrels have been a constant problem. In real use, it has dramatically reduced wasted seed and squirrel activity. Bird activity has been excellent. Once birds figure it out, they come back regularly and feed without issue. It attracts a good variety of birds, and the 2-pound capacity is a nice balance between size and refill frequency. It holds enough seed to last without being overly bulky or heavy when hanging. That said, there are clear differences between the first feeder I bought and the second one purchased a few months later. The first one felt more solid overall. The area where the birds perch felt thicker and sturdier. On the newer one, that same area feels thinner and cheaper by comparison. It still works, but it doesn’t inspire the same long-term confidence as the earlier version. Another noticeable change is the hanging area. The original feeder had a better, more robust hanging design that felt secure and well thought out. The newer version has been changed, and while it still functions, it doesn’t feel as well built or as refined. It’s not a deal breaker, but it’s definitely a step backward in terms of quality. Despite those changes, the feeder still performs very well where it matters most. It keeps squirrels out, feeds birds reliably, and holds up outdoors. It hasn’t failed, broken, or stopped working, and that’s why it still earns five stars. The design changes don’t make it bad, just not quite as good as it used to be. Overall, this is still one of the better squirrel-proof bird feeders available. If you’ve never owned the older version, you’ll probably be very happy with it. If you have, you may notice the same differences I did. Even so, the effectiveness against squirrels and steady bird activity make it a strong, worthwhile feeder that I’d still recommend.
Review: The design change is good! - This a a great feeder that actually keeps squirrels off! Their comical antics trying to get in is fun to watch. I’ve had 2 of these feeders for several years. On unboxing this one, I note that the design has changed. The perches are now lighter weight and hinged, and the hanger is of a different design, not as portrayed in the picture. I’m concerned that it is of a lighter weight overall and may be not be as durable. I will give it a try for a week or two, but if it doesn’t perform as well as the earlier design, I may sadly return it. For now, I have retracted one star. **** UPDATE **** The design change proved to be a plus. Still no squirrels in the feeder, even if they get on it, they can’t access any birdseed. They have to settle for ground feeding. Increased from 4 to 5 stars.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Birds rejecting feeder. Changed seeds - no results -  No squirrels - no birds?? Why?**
A: Save yourself some money and buy safflower seeds. The have all the nutrition of a sunflower seeds, all song birds (including woodpeckers) love them AND THE SQUIRRELS WON'T TOUCH THEM! I wish someone would have clued me in before I spent $$$$ on squirrel proof feeders ( I had a weight triggered one like this and the squirrels eventually broke the springs). You can buy a 50 lb. bag of safflower seeds on Amazon for about $53 with free shipping. That's about $1.06 a pound. Get any feeder and your problems are solved!

**Q: The darn squirrels are jumping on this and the springs are detaching. Has anyone else had and solved this problem?**
A: The springs should be reattached, if this problem persists, please contact our Consumer Relations Team at 1-855-PERKYPET (1-855-737-5973) for assistance.

**Q: Can I buy a replacement for the plastic insert? The squirrels chewed it to pieces!**
A: We apologize, but replacement parts are not available. The feeder is covered by a 30-day satisfaction guarantee and a one-year replacement warranty. Feel free to contact our Consumer Relations Team at 1-855-PERKYPET (1-855-737-5973) for further assistance.

**Q: How to fil feeder with food perky-pet 337**
A: I just buy regular bird food. I left up the top of the bird feeder and put it in. Then I put the top back down on it. I then take a piece of black electrical tape and put it around the bottom of the top. I do this because I have watched squirrels push the top of it up and over so they can get food from the top. I hope this helps you out some.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not perfect at keeping squirrels out unless combined with a baffle
*by J***K on May 22, 2020*

I had one of these feeders for about 6 years before the inner plastic casing started cracking apart. Because it was effective at keeping the squirrels frustrated as they tried repeatedly to climb onto and get the food, I decided to get another one. This isn’t quite a perfect solution though as sometimes, the spring can get jammed, requiring playing with it to get to spring back as well as persistent squirrels can sometimes figure out a way to get in, depending on your setup. I try to keep the feeder on a pole away from any trees or other areas that they can jump on. I also use a squirrel baffle on the pole. Also, if you put too much food into the feeder, especially in a humid climate like here, mold can build up on the inside of the plastic. I suggest not filling the feeder all the way to avoid those issues. The biggest weakness of the feeder is the plastic casing on the inside. Even though the metal frame has held up well over the years, the plastic inside eventually cracked and broke apart until it was no longer usable. The springs can also get weak over time too, but these held up for the most part ok. All in all, I can’t complain about the life I got out of the old one, I just hope this new one holds up as well. 4 stars
