Feeder constantly leaks
May 1, 2025
Bought this feeder last fall and used for the first time this spring This product constantly leaks. Stick mess underneath the feeder. Never have had the problem before, I will have to use the old one.
Will have to look for other brands of feeders.

This is the first Perky Pet hummingbird feeder that I’ve been disappointed in. It leaks whether it’s in the sun or shade. When the ambient temperature is in the 80s or higher the liquid expands and overflows. It seems like the floral feeders are not at the correct angle, perhaps that would change the outcome. Luckily I still had my older feeder for backup. I wouldn’t recommend this product to fellow bird lovers.
Disappointing! Thin Plastic Cracks Easily.

Disappointing! Plastic base on all 4 feeders cracked open between 9-11 months. I am careful not to over tighten onto the glass. The thin plastic appears to be a design flaw.

Have had many of your feeders for years & love them. But this newer type perch on this seems easy to break off. It’s not very thick & flimsy. The small woodpeckers seem to like to hang off it to try to feed!! Perches need to be more sturdy. No problem of course with the hummingbirds. I see no replacements. Will see if the other three perches will hold up…I hope!! At least I have those yet. Downy, hairy & orioles love to go to hummingbird feeders even when I hang up one made for them!! Go figure!! The older perches on other style have not been a problem. Like older style.
If I could replace the ...bottoms.

If I could replace the molded plastic screw bottoms that inevitably split out, it would be perfect. I would even pay for them. But I can't find them. I have too many without to keep buying more complete feeders. I'll go to something else first.

Wings down our birds absolute favorite feeder. They fly by the others and swarm these! We have only had a problem with one (the base cracked). The others are easy to clean and basically problem free. We just wish they made one with the same large flower feeding ports and a larger higher capacity GLASS container

I ordered a 2 pack of these glass hummingbird feeders and after using them for a few weeks, overall I'm disappointed with the yellow petal design. It says it's bee-proof, however where I live there are smaller stingless bees that swarm all over them and prevent the hummingbirds from accessing the nectar. The glass cleans well but the petal design is not great. I paid a pretty penny for them which is even more disappointing.

I love them, but after three weeks, two gentle cleaning (I was worried about the hinges), two of the yellow protector hinges broke apart when i opened it for cleaning. Won't stay put anymore. Any guarantee? Or replacement parts? Thank you.
It leaks constantly!

It leaks out of the feeding ports all-of-the-time! Wind, no wind doesn't matter. It hangs from a hook and connects to the hook on top, so it is always perpendicular to the roof. It leaks! It leaks. It leaks.

We are sorry to hear that your feeder is leaking. When filling a feeder, it is important to ensure that the base and bottle are tightened so they are snug. We also suggest hanging the feeder in a shaded location, free of wind and direct sunlight. As the sun warms up the nectar inside the bottle, the liquid will expand, which can cause some to leak. If the area is overly windy, the feeder will tilt, disrupting the vacuum inside the feeder, allowing the nectar to pour out. The feeder has a one year replacement policy. Reach out to us via the Contact Us page for additional assistance.
