## Description

ASPECTS 281 Tube Top Clear Protective Weather Dome Made from UV Stabilized Polycarbonate, 12 inch Diameter

Review: Works Well In Winter - Trying to save some money, I tried a metal cover but it caught the wind and flipped the whole feeder off the hook. This is what I wanted in the first place - light, clear, protects feeder and birds from inclement weather. I did have to rework the plastic hanger on the feeder because it wouldn't fit comfortably through the opening on the clear dome. Despite the adjustment needed, this is what I was looking for and the plastic feels durable. I was considering buying a plastic bowl or using a cake lid and trying to adapt them as feeder covers but this is designed for the purpose. I do wish it was priced a bit more accessibly but it works well, especially for ice and snow.
Review: well made - Fits tube feeders and works really well. I have bought other ones but this one does not need the feeder to be attached to another ring. These fit right over and use the one on the feeder so it is more secure and easier to hang.

## Features

- Measures 12" in diameter which covers the feeder and area around it
- Protects all aspects 2-3/4 tubes from inclement weather
- Attaches to the feeder easily without extra hardware
- Made from molded UV stabilized, super-tough polycarbonate

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Have a similar bird feeder about same size, but its rectangular & wire it hangs from loops about  6 - 8 inches up to hanger.  Will this work?**
A: The Aspects shield will sit on the top of the feeder tube itself.  The slit in the top is about 3 inches long.  If your wires are not farther apart than this, it should work.  However, I made the mistake of using it on 'squirrel proof' tube feeders.  The weight of the plastic shield on top was enough to push the food portals down away from the perches (like it's supposed to do if a squirrel gets on top).  I will use mine on other type of small feeders.

**Q: How long is the slit exactly?**
A: The slit is 3 3/8" long.

**Q: What is the diameter of the hole in the center?**
A: The length of the slot in the center is about 3.25 inches. Then the diameter of the small hole in center of slot is about 1” dia. HTH.

**Q: Why is it so expensive?**
A: The shipping cost that is built into the price.  
If you go to UPS to ship it on to a friend it will cost you about $20.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Keeps the birdseed and birds a little drier on rainy days
*by D***E on January 11, 2019*

Got this product for our squirrel proof birdfeeder to help keep the birdseed and feeder more dry in the rain. Although not made for our particular feeder we were able to adapt it to fit by using some small bubble wrap to fill the spaces on either side and some wire to help keep in place. Would have preferred a rain top made for our particular feeder but could not find one so this one will serve the purpose of helping to keep the birdseed drier and also the little birds that visit our birdfeeder. Wanted it mostly to help keep the seed dry though because it can get moldy if it gets wet. In a heavy downpour of rain we still hang the feeder underneath of the eaves of our house though, because this rain-guard works best in light rain because it does not give a broad enough cover for heavy driving rains that sometimes hit the feeder sideways.
