We used 2 of these for years. They worked very well to keep squirrels out, but a bear finally discovered them and demolished them!

Excellent quality and sturdiness from top to bottom. Anchoring system, foot poles and seed weight have held this feeder in place through 20-25 mph winds. Within one week birds visiting this feeder include: House Finches, Chickadees, Titmice, Nuthatches, Gold Finches, Juncos, Cardinals, Downy WPs and BLUEBIRDS! Blue Jays and Mourning Doves are feeding below from spilled seed left on the ground. Yes, as I've mixed dried meal worms with the seed, a pair of mated Bluebirds visits regularly. Be advised however, the meal worms do NOT slide through the seed ports and instead clog the port openings. This is expected as the feeder's design is for seed. It is not an issue to simply unclog the port openings with your finger or a wire once every couple of days. If the seed ports were just a half inch bigger, there would be no such issue. IT IS ABSOLUTELY SQUIRREL PROOF when ground mount! This feeder has had a number of pole climbing squirrels get frustrated as they cannot climb up and around the bottom seed tray of the feeder. My only criticism is that it is difficult for birds to land onto this feeder's seed tray. It is a relatively slippery and smooth clear plastic that birds cannot easily grip onto when attempting to land. This condition becomes worse when the seed tray is wet. Multiple birds instead simply land onto the seed and sit in the seed trough while feeding. The birds are learning how to master the landing on the plastic itself, but I've seen many flutter aimlessly to no avail whenever they attempt to get a foot hold. A method of roughening the seed tray surface or adding a rubber grip tape strip for easier bird landing success would have given this feeder a 5 star rating. A one day attempt was made to add an additional tube feeder to the top of the Jagunda as described by the company. Functionality was good, but sturdiness was diminished. Also, my personal opinion, the aesthetics of the tube feeder on top is not preferred. The tube feeder was removed and is awaiting installation elsewhere in the yard on a separate DY pole system.

Very frustrating for the squirrels; wonderful for the birds and me. Just ordered a second Jagunda for my garden.

I've had this feeder for years. It is squirrel proof and easy to clean and fill. I'm moving and ordering one for the new home.

Just ordered the jagunda on a service call about a tube feeder. Have had droll yankee feeders for many years and occasionally need repair. No problem with droll yankee. These folks take care of their customers!
