Why it may suit you
- Keeps squirrels off and holds 5.1 lb of sunflower; the spring adjusts so heavier birds can still feed.
- Comes apart without tools for cleaning.
- Squirrels: weight-activated shroud closes access to ports; spring threshold is adjustable.
- Holds 5.1 lb, so refills come less often.
- Brome offers a limited lifetime warranty against defects.
Know before you buy
- Skip it if you cannot keep at least 18 inches clear around the feeder.
- Pole installation needs the separate Plus adapter and a pole no larger than one inch outside diameter.
- The ports close under a squirrel’s weight; larger animals such as raccoons or bears need a baffle, a different spot or a feeder taken in at night.

Before it goes outside
Check the exact mount and any required adapters, the loaded weight, and whether you can safely reach the feeder for cleaning. Keep included parts visible on your shopping list so you do not buy them twice.
Keep the food dry, remove spoiled seed and debris, and choose a compartment you can clean thoroughly.
