This is a good buy for someone purchasing their first bird feeder. The pole which is enclosed is rather flimsy and not that tall, so for security you really need to replace it. By all means, purchase a squirrel guard, because if squirrels get up on the feeder, which they will, they not only eat all the seed but they also severely gouge the bottom tray and seed falls out more easily. If you're really serious about a bird feeder, then I would try one that is sturdier.

I purchased this after our platform feeder finally turned into too big of a mess to deal with. The birds LOVED it, and flocked to it, so I was a little hesitant about replacing it with a "normal" feeder but decided to give it a go.
This Gazebo feeder is VERY substantial and well-made. It is plastic, but much sturdier than some wood bird feeders we have. We *don't* have squirrels here in Southwest Florida so I can't tell you if it's squirrel-proof or not.
I was going to have my husband mount the bird feeder on a pole, but it came with sturdy materials for hanging (including a bracket and thick coated wire), so we decided to hang it by one of our front windows and see if the birds would still come. I was a little concerned about it being battered around by the heavy storms we have here in the summer, but after seeing the hanging materials, and feeling the heft of the feeder when filled with seed (it holds a TON of seed!), I felt more confident.
Within a few hours, the birds were all back, including the cardinals. Another reviewer mentioned that the white color might deter birds from coming, but they don't seem to mind- the majority of the feeder is the color of the seed you put inside. And they aren't able to jimmy the plexiglass panels holding the seed up to get more out, like they do with our wood bird feeder in the backyard (they figured out a way to prop the panels open so a gush of seed pours out onto the ground.
The doves can't balance on the edge of the feeder, so that's sort of a downfall, but they enjoy sitting below and waiting for leftovers. Another downfall is the opening to refill the feeder is sort of small, but it holds so much seed that refilling won't be a regular exercise.
I really love this feeder. It's sturdy, the birds like it, it's really pretty to look at, holds a ton of seed, keeps that seed very well protected from the elements. I'll be interested to see how it does throughout SW Florida's stormy and scorching summer, but so far, I couldn't be happier.

The multi-section pole is extremely flimsy and is not capable of supporting the loaded feeder in anything other than calm weather conditions. The feeder housing is 100% light plastic. This is a classic case of "you get what you pay for". I find it hard to believe that it was made in America. If this unit were to be manufactured with a more solid post attachment base piece with the buyer responsible for providing the actual post the feeder would easily rate at least three stars.
