Product Description
Squirrel Buster Classic The patented Squirrel Buster technology is truly squirrel proof. Thousands of delighted bird lovers have confirmed it. The new Classic has openings in the wire grid that align with the seed ports and provide birds access to the seed. When a squirrel climbs onto the feeder, its weight automatically forces the grid down, closing access to the seed ports. All squirrels and many large birds are foiled but not harmed in any way.

 Durable, Squirrel Proof June 14, 2008
I've had this feeder for a few months now and it works perfectly. I live in the Puget Sound WA area and maybe my gray squirrels are not that bright, but they have not figured out a way to get the seed other than waiting on the ground for the birds to drop it.
 Shipping price was sky high May 30, 2008

I ordered a Squirrel Buster bird feeder for about $30.00 and the shipping was about $17.00 which I believe is excessive. I have written this review at least 4 times and you keep sending me messages for my comments. Please do not sent me any more messages.

Great for squirrels, but not raccoons... April 12, 2008

I live in an area with a lot of old oak trees, so the community has a huge squirrel population. I have had problems with the little furry guys before - they can literally empty an entire feeder in an hour. I have purchased more expensive models before, but the squirrels figured out a way to hang upside down and raid the seed. This product works extremely well - it doesn't stop the squirrels from trying, but they get discouraged after awhile and jump down, leaving the seed alone.
One morning I woke up to find the shepherds hook I had the bird feeder hanging on bent to the ground and the feeder in the middle of the yard on its side. We had a windstorm during the night, so I figured it blew down. The next day I woke up to the same thing - and the feeder was completely empty.
In addition to a large squirrel colony, we also have a large raccoon colony. The raccoons managed to push the pole to the ground, remove the feeder from the hook, and placed the feeder on its side, so that the levers that close off the seed when the weight of a squirrel lands on it were not operational....and proceeded to empty the contents of the feeder.
I have been able to overcome this problem by greasing the pole the feeder is on....the raccoons can't get a grip on the pole to push it to the ground.
Overall, this product is great for what it sets out to do... keep squirrels from hogging all the seed....just watch out for raccoons!
The birds don't stop coming! December 14, 2007

I got this for my birthday and I was a bit skeptical at first. It took about 8-9 days for the birds to figure out that the feeder was even here. Once the first bird came, it took only a few hours and we had a whole myriad of different birds. They love the feeder, so I love the feeder too. I just use a mixed blend bird seed and they seem to like it a lot. The feeder itself is easy to use. You just twist the top part off, fill it with seeds and hang it up. I would advice filling it outside because the seeds can spill out of the holes a little bit. As far as being squirrel proof, we have not had any squirrels bother it yet.

This is truly a squirrel proof feeder. I have two of these. Only complaint is that the spring mechanism broke on one of them while cleaning and it's toast. Just treat it gently when cleaning. I am getting another one since it's the only feeder I have seen that keeps squirrels off. As for the critters swinging the feeder around to disperse seeds, this is a very small "squirrel tax" to pay. Put some seed on the ground for our bushy tailed friends and be thankful they are not ON the feeder.
