Perky-Pet® Diamond Wine Top-Fill Glass Hummingbird Feeder

Do not buy this feeder. I wish I could give this less than one star. The liquid leaks out of the feeding ports. It’s hard to get apart to clean properly.

Excellent feeder. Glass, so it's handwashable for keeping birds safe from disease as long as you clean frequently. Filling from the top is super easy. None of my perky pet feeders leak.

Bought 3 Top fill glass Hummingbird feeders. All 3 leak and you cannot get replacement seals. Just called them and Perky Pet does not make them and you cannot get them. They said “sorry”.

I live in northwest Washington state about 50 miles north of Seattle. I have about twenty hummingbird feeders. And have counted over 50 Anna hummingbirds at the same time on my front deck. The Perky Pet purple wine colored feeders are the birds, and my favorite. I have about a dozen hanging all year. One important point is that unlike those pictured, the flowers on all my feeders have perches. Perky Pet use to sell perches that attach to each individual flower on cards of six. I have found that perches are essential to attracting and keeping hummingbirds. They do not have to hover but can rest and feed. The top fill feature is also essential. It does more than just making filling the feeder easy and messy free. Particularly If you make your own nectar and pay attention to how much your birds consume in a day, you can fill the feeder only as full as needed for one day and keep the rest in the fridge so that it stays fresh longer. You cannot do that with a feeder that you have to disassemble to fill. The top fill feature is both has both a feature that is both genus and also capable of causing trouble if you don't understand how it works in the bottom of the feeder. When you remove the glass to of the feeder from the base, which you have to occasionally in order to clean it, examine it carefully. In the base there is a large round disk. That disk is a float that lets nectar into the bottom where the birds feed on it. When the base is full the float rises and stops more liquid from entering. If the float isn't working properly it will allow liquid to flow into the base and overflow out of the flowers. Remember that the float lives in sugar water. It can get sticky and not float freely. Your feeder isn't broken, you just need to Unscrew the glass top from the base and rinse it out. I am pretty sure all the top feeders work that way.
