Bought the Perky-Pet Daisey vase ...
Aug 3, 2026
Bought the Perky-Pet Daisey vase vintage glass feeder, model # 8133-2, several years ago. I bought it specifically becasue it was mostly glass and metal. Unfortunately, the metal cover that the birds feed from has begun to rust. And of course it started rusting the second or third season after we purchased it. The fact that you only warranty your products for one year speaks volumes to the lack of quality in your manufacturing process. And NOT making available replacement parts speaks to your throw away corporate philosophy. I am now researching different humming bird feeders and WILL NOT consider purchasing any Perky-Pet products!

We're sorry to hear about the rusting on your Perky-Pet® Daisy Vase Vintage Glass Hummingbird Feeder, model #8133-2. To help prevent rust on metal feeder components, we recommend washing them regularly with mild soap and water, rinsing thoroughly, and allowing all metal parts to dry completely before reassembling the feeder. Avoid leaving the feeder submerged or allowing water to remain on the metal components for extended periods. We appreciate your feedback regarding the durability of the metal cover and replacement parts, and we'll share your comments with our team.
Our wire that holds it ...

Our wire that holds it up the feeder rusted through and broke. I called and was told they discontinued selling parts and then she had the nerve to ask if I would like to buy a new one? From a company that won't help service their product, even though I was willing to pay. I'd say that the likelihood of that is somewhere between fat and no chance.
I see in the comments that several others have had similar experiences.

The hummingbirds love this feeder, ...

The hummingbirds love this feeder, and choose it over others. However it rusts:(. I clean it weekly with mild soapy water, so the suggestion from the manufacturer of cleaning it every 2 weeks does not make a difference. If you offered replacement bases, I would definitely purchase them. The threading on the glass of these does not match any other bases I’ve found.
Can't find the replacement gasket ...

Can't find the replacement gasket (SKU #HB GASKET) anymore for my hummingbird feeder. Is it still available for purchase?
I have repaired the gasket several times with glue, it's finally finished. Feeder leaks without the gasket.
Rust at the base

Same problem, rusted fast, not the first one I’ve purchased that has done this. Their feeders should be a non corrosive metal that safe for birds and doesn’t rust.
This product sucks

I have experienced the same issues of the feeder rusting. I bought it thinking it was more durable than previously purchased feeders. The response from Perky-Pet is consistently to clean it every two weeks... that's bull. I clean and refill mine every week but it didn't prevent it from rusting. I will NEVER purchase another product from them!
Need a new gasket; apparently not available???

I bought this feeder a couple of years ago, and it has been fine EXCEPT that by last year the gasket between the two parts of the bottom had worn out. Now the feeder leaks constantly, and I was unable to find a replacement gasket. Do you sell replacement gaskets?

Horrible product - rust a known issue
Nov 17, 2019
I have the Daisy Vase Vintage 18 oz feeder. Within two months the top with metal flowers has rusted. The hummers will no longer use it - thankfully so, as the rust is very toxic. I do not save receipts for items such as this as I expect it to last. From reviews, many others are experiencing the rust problem. I clean my feeder and refill every three days as I do not want to endanger the hummers, so keeping it clean is not the answer. Very disappointing product and very disappointing that you are not willing to do anything regarding the rust issue!!! Birds are being endangered.
