Review Rate It does not leakI really like this feeder. The first time I took it apart, it was hard to figure out how to put it back together. Now no problem. In Tucson's summer it does not leak like most other ones with the temperature swings. I am ordering more to replace the other ones.
-
Review Rate Am ordering 2 more!Does NOT leak. Must insure proper reassembling after cleaning which should be done regularly as with any other feeder. I have 4 such feeders and a top filler is only way to go. Am in a desert community and flowers dried out of course. Did hummers care? Not at all!
-
Review Rate Rubbery flowers are easy on tongues but prefer shade.I like the soft, rubbery flowers. They must be easier on a Hummingbird's tongue than the hard plastic or metel. I have not experienced the leaking problems mentioned by others. My feeder sits under the overhang of our roof (outside of a picture window) so the sun does not affect the flowers which have remained soft and rubbery. -
Review Rate The best feeder!This is my favorite feeder because it easily comes completely apart for cleaning. I have 3 and have given 4 as gifts. It does not leak if it has been reassembled correctly. I have Rufous and Anna’s hummingbirds and they were easily attracted to the feeders. I have to clean and refill every two days. I use 1 cup of sugar to 4cups of water, bring to a boil then let cool.
I do wish there were replaceable flowers. -
Review Rate Mess on floorFilled reservoir first time and the sugar water flowed immediately and freely onto my kitchen floor. Put in trash.
Purchased feeder without top fill subsequently. -
Review Rate Prefer the glass feedersIt doesn't seem to attract the hummers as much as my other 3 feeders. I'm hoping it'll be OK if the winds don't get too violent.
-
Review Rate Love it.I love my feeder. Actually bought it at Walmart. No leaking issues. I've had fir for a few years. Tried to buy another one, but sadly Walmart hasn't had this same brand. I would rather not buy online and pay double the price than I paid at Walmart, but I really like this particular feeder. I agree about the flowers. After a while they fall apart from being in the sun. I just replaced mine with fake flowers from the dollar store.
-
Review Rate I need an upgrade to a glass hobnail feeder.I had the same problems as other reviewers. It's very hard to prevent the feeder from dripping sweetness all over the place... When I finally succeeded in staunching the drips, the hummers stoped coming. Apparently, if you stop the dripping, you also block the flow. This product is much more trouble than it is worth.

Review Rate I would like to return this item.This feeder doesn't seem to attract hummingbirds. I have another feeder that is their choice. I wonder if the syrup is not being released into the bowl where the "flowers" are located.

Review Rate A LeakerLEAKS all over! Needs a gasket between the two bottom pieces. I did like the wide mouth feature for easy cleaning but an emptying leaking mess is not a good trade off. The hummers are not happy with me.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: This is my first Top Fill Hummingbird feeder, what are some good tips to filling and cleaning my new feeder?
A: Follow the steps on the chart for best filling and cleaning tips.
Q: I typically get a lot of ants around my hummingbird feeders, what can I do to prevent them from getting to the nectar?
A: No worries, with this top fill feeder - it has a built in ant moat right in the lid of the feeder. After filling your feeder and hanging, simply pour a small amount of water in the top of the lid.
Q: What criteria should I use when selecting a hummingbird feeder?
A: Make sure it is one that will be easy to clean and fill, especially since you will need to clean the feeder every few days. If you are worried about bees and wasps or ants invading the feeder, purchase a hummingbird feeder with bee guards, such as the Perky-Pet® model #203CP or ant guards, Perky-Pet® model #242.
Q: How do I clean my hummingbird feeders?
A: Hummingbird feeders need to be cleaned every 1-2 weeks. Use hot water and a bottle brush, along with mild soap; be sure to rinse thoroughly. The Perky-Pet® cleaning mop is specifically designed for the purpose of cleaning hummingbird feeders, and is very convenient to use. This cleaning mop can also be used on seed feeders and oriole feeders for those small, tight spaces that are difficult to reach.
Q: What is the importance of providing water for hummingbirds?
A. Hummingbirds need fresh, clean water just as much as they need nectar. Hummingbirds stay healthy by using water not just for drinking, but also bathing, cleaning their feathers and to remove parasites. Waterers are better options than bird baths because they provide hummingbirds with fresh, clean water that prevents dirt and debris from contaminating it. In hotter climates or seasons, providing water for hummingbirds makes it easy for them to have access to a water source and retain their energy.
