Pros & Cons
Pros
Easy to assemble. Very sturdy. Everything works as advertised.
Feeder is always busy with all kind of birds, even wood peckers. Shield the birds while eating on rainy/snowy days.
A rubber grommet separates them so any critter sliding down the rod will be zapped when touching the cover plate. There is an audible signal to let you know it is armed when you flip the on/off switch.
Cons
Heavy dew or light rain causes the static charge process to not work. The replacement is no better; it, too, only works intermittently. The faq says 3-4 months on a fresh battery.
The hook penetrates the green cap through a rubber grommet that, i suppose, was supposed to keep out the weather.
Price of this item is exorbitant for the value. Do not be fooled.
This feeder is a poor design all around. Not popular with the birds and is not an effective deterrence against the squirrels. The second is a design flaw. This defeats the purpose of having a squirrel proof feeder.
Highlights
Quality
I was skeptical at first but my sisterinlaw said she had had great success with this product
Debated with the idea of the 12 vs 8 feeder size
Maybe they have done upgrades with the latest models in response to those commenters who have said theres quit working after a rain

This is one bird feeder they stay away from

Now maybe for others when they checked it may have had dampness near the electrical circuits and one just needs to leave it alone so it can dry out
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Once mine is dry about 24 or 36 hours after a rain i turn it off and then back on
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It would be great if we could to turn it off before it rains but our schedules make it impossible
