Cherry Valley Coach Lamp Bird Feeder Model 6200

Good product. Did not get deep enough into ground and blew over and broke plastic feed container. Maybe stronger plastic would be better.

I love the way the feeder looks. Feeder itself is plastic, but has held up well under constant squirrel bombardment, and it was very easy to put together. Only complaint I have is that the top of the pole got deformed when I was pounding it in to the ground, which made it difficult to attach the feeder. But it would probably have been OK if I had used a rubber mallet. You'll want to get a squirrel baffle, as the buggers can get right up the pole and eat you out of house and home. We are getting a new feeder because the squirrels can just jump to it from the fence, but if you have space to put it away from their launch points, and if you get a squirrel baffle, this is a great (and cute) feeder for the money.

The Cherry Valley Coach Lamp Bird Feeder looks nice in the picture but in person its not as nice, and it has a really, really bad design in my opinion. The one I received was actually broken (the plastic top part of the hopper was broken, while this did not really affect the integrity or functionality of the feeder, it just proves its not very durable plastic and not likely to withstand our seasonal extremes of hot and cold here in NJ).The Cherry Valley Coach Lamp Bird Feeder ships in multiple pieces. You have to assemble the hopper/ feeder with a long rod that screws the top and the bottom of the hopper to the feeder to keep it in place (I already trashed the feeder, so I do not know the length of the rod but I want to say it is about 10-12 inches long). I ordered a preowned one and the screw did not fit end to end, well, it did but it made the part that you twist open to put the seed in a little too snug, actually it was so snug that I could barely twist it to open it and fill it.The stake attaches to the feeder once you are done with assembling the feeder itself. Overall it is about 6 feet in length, and the stake is not one solid stake like a Shepard hook is, its actually 4 hollow metal sections. You have to use a rubber mallet to connect each section from end to end and then place the feeder on the top of the stake. You have to sink it down into the ground at least 8" according to the instructions so the feeder stands a little over 5 feet above ground. The stake is single pronged and not double pronged for those who are wondering.Overall it is a nice looking feeder and looks like it would hold A LOT of seed. I am glad I purchased a preowned one, although its been thrown away since Amazon was nice enough to issue a refund for the damaged feeder, after seeing what it looks like, and learning its assembly, I can't say I wish to reorder this particular feeder. Definitely not worth $30+ in my opinion. Considering it is cheap plastic that broke in transit, I dont think this feeder would last very long due to its clear lack of durability. Plus we get a lot of squirrels who love to invade feeders, I doubt this feeder would survive their daily invasions!

Love this bird feeder. I was worried that at this price point, it would be flimsy. It's not. It's very durable and easy to put together. The only thing I was dissapointed in is that squirrels can still climb up the pole. I had hoped it would be slippery enough that they couldn't.. they must have those NFL sticky gloves. I do like that the ledge around the feeder allows some larger birds to sit there. On our hanging feeders, the larger birds end up eating from the spillage on the ground. All in all, great produce. I'm thinking of getting second one.

Cheap but still looks good. Doesn't stay up straight because the poles aren't that strong. Maybe if I didn't fill it all the way, it could support the feeder better. Food for thought....

I bought this for an odd reason. I have almost no space in our sitting room for a Christmas tree. I put feeder in a heavy pot, wrapped the pole with greenery garland and added lights to the greenery. I also put a string of lights in the feeder. I added Christmas balls to the greenery and put a bow on top of the feeder and had a faux Christmas tree that took up very little space. I can't speak to its durability as an outside bird feeder but it seems well made.

Cheaply made. Scratched up. Bought as a gift but decided not to give after seeing it.

I love this feeder. It looks cute in my yard, the squirrels have a hard time getting to it, but that also has to do with placement in my yard, and the birds seems to enjoy it. The only things I wasn't to happy about was installation, it is still slightly loose on the top but if you tighten it anymore you are unable to swivel the lid over the opening where the seed goes in. Also, I wish there was a locking mechanism that connects the top of the "light" to the post in the ground. It just gets pushed onto the top during installation and is slightly wobbly. Hasn't fallen off YET but I'm anticipating it if strong winds come through.

I am able to feed so many types of birds!! I love watching them. It's very easy to set up and fill with seed

Thrown out packed so badly that cracked and shattered. Only pole was not damaged.

not worth the money

When the parcel was first opened, really liked the look of the bird feeder, but on closer examination , found it had a large crack. Decided to send it back, but couldn't fit the feeder back into the box, so glued up the crack and decided to keep it. It was a disappointment, but I'll use it.

This feeder is difficult to fill. It's on this pole and you have to reach up and turn the top and pour seed in a hole. I get just as much down my shirt as I do in feeder. Haha it does look nice.
