Brome Squirrel Buster Classic Squirrel Proof Bird Feeder 1015

Birds love itSquirrels can’t use itBut rats can :/

Works great, just as advertised. Our resident squirrel can't get to the food, except what falls on the ground. The chipmunks still try, but mostly they eat on the ground too. The birds love it.

I hope the company offers my money back. This squirrel buster is a joke. Yes more than 70% drops on the floor and the squirrels are enjoying it from the bottom. I was wondering why my black sunflower seeds were emptying in 2-3 days. I decided to check the grass below the feeder, and almost all the seeds are on the ground. I wish I listened to the reviewer who mentioned this. This feeder doesn't deserve a high rating. I regret buying it. I threw the box. I don't know what to do with this. Waste of money and waste of seeds. Look at the pictures. Too many seeds on the soil some are germinated and had to remove them. Too much!

Works great, goldfinches and purple finches love it. Cardinals, too. Easy to fill. Haven't had any squirrels attempt it, so I don't know how squirrel-proof it is, but it's been a happy sight for birds.

Forget squirrels, a hungry bear could not reach the seed.    Recommend 100%

Squirrels have not bothered to try and get to it so everything is 'for the birds'!

Perfect feeder for small birds. Very frustrating for the squirrels : )

I bought this years ago and it's been a pretty good feeder but it eventually rusted on the outside and deteriorated inside at the bottom.

I really wanted this to work, but I must have Ninja squirrels in my neighborhood because the little buggers chewed right through the thing!If I used Safflower seeds they only knocked it to the ground but left it alone once they realized they did not like these kinds of seeds. But when I took a chance and filled it with Sunflower seeds (Yum says the squirrels!) they gnawed through the plastic and it was on the ground within 24 hours, and the precious seeds were gobbled up.Also, it did not hold much, I had to refill often and they seeds spilled out during filling.I will not spend the money for another, I will just stick with Safflower seeds and a simpler bird feeder, sigh...

This is the ultimate bird feeder. Truly is the best feeder to ONLY feed birds! squirrels will definitely try but fail to get any food.

No squirrels hung under the eve of the house. Many different birds use this feeder with a nut and berry seed mix. Easy to load the seed.

They tried, but they couldn’t bust the Squirrel Buster! I highly recommend this feeder!

We've liked our birdfeeder well enough...but hadn't had a chance to see it in action till recently. As you can see, it worked like a charm!

This works great for birds, and they seem to enjoy feeding from it. I can attest that it is squirrel-and-large-bird-proof. The problem I have is that it isn't deer-proof. Deer walk right up to it, stick their tongue into the feeding holes and clear out the feeder in one sitting (see my picture). I ended up buying a less expensive feeder with squirrel-proof feeding holes that the deer avoid.If you are in an area with no deer, or you can hang the feeder where deer can't reach it, then this feeder will probably work great for you.

I love this bird feeder; the birds love it and the squirrels cannot get any seeds no matter how hard they try.

Have had this up for one day. Easy to assemble. So far no squirrels attempted to get to the feeder. Time will tell. But overall, satisfied with this feeder!

I've tried several squirrel proof feeders from the local stores and it took them about 2 days to figures it out. They would empty the feeder in a day. But this feeder actually works and now the food will last almost 2 weeks. The squirrels will still occasionally try but the most they can do is cause a little to shake out on the ground. This year I have had Painted Buntings feeding from the feeder almost every day. I'm so happy I found this feeder and plan to buy another.

The feeder worked well, until the squirrels pried the green ports away from the clear cylinder. Once they did that, then the feeding freenzy began.I've seen on other feeders where the ports are connected by a solid bar. These appear to be just glued on allowing a persistent squirrel to break the feeder. I've contacted Brome and asked for a replacement.Brome is sending a replacement cylinder with new ports at no cost. I've added an additional star to the review.

Lasted a little over one year - and definitely not squirrel proof. Squirrels -1, plastic parts - 0. I would normally give the review 1 star - however, true to their promise, the company sent me replacement parts at no charge so maybe next time plastic parts -1, squirrels-0.

This squirrel proof feeder actually works!! I’ve tried many feeders that were reported to be squirrel proof ... this is the only one that actually closed for squirrels and still fed the birds. So far cardinals, tufted titmouse, chickadees, Carolina wrenches, and even a blue jay have feed from my feeder without a single seed going to the greedy little tree rats!!

Excellent feeder. The squirrels haven’t attempted it which is great. It took the birds a few weeks to warm up to the feeder, but once they did we have had loads of them each day. The cardinals, especially, line up in the yard to take their turn.

This feeder is amazing! It alsmost seems that the squirrels are already familiar with this feeder and don't even try. And the one squirrel that hasn't given up yet is so entertaining to watch try (and fail) to get the seeds. The birds took a couple weeks to discover it but had no problem mastering it. The feeder is large enough that I only fill it 2x per week. Would definitely buy this again.
