Automatic Bird Feeding Seed Container

I really wanted this feeder to work out. When I received the box it was packaged well and very sturdy. The attachment bolts for the hooks were made in a way that did not leave sharp edges inside the feeder. The hooks feel strong and overall it seemed like a decent product. As a first time bird owner I didn't think about the ease of cleaning the feeder or the ability to refill it. I was not too impressed once we started using it. In order to clean the box, you will need to completely remove it and turn it over to dump the old seed out. There is no way to remove the top or sides as it is all glued together. You can reach in, but not super easy to clean. To refill the box you need to pour the seed in the back from the front as the top is not removeable. I could have lived with this. The final issue that prompted me to return it was that the opening is wider than the door for my finch cage. Three of my four birds managed to finally figure out how to get in the feeder, all at different times, but then ended up not figuring out how to get back out. I'm not sure if this was because the box is totally clear or that my finches are just a little on the not so smart end. What resulted was massive amounts of bird panic and having to stand in front of the box with my hands on either side to get them to move toward the exit. During this I was concerned they would injure themselves with the amount of panic and fluttering happening. This ended with them being terrified of even going near the thing and making it pointless for us to have. Ultimately this is a nice product if you don't mind a little work to clean it and if your bird(s) are a little smarter about which way the exit is, but didn't work out for us.
