Product Description:
Designed to bring hummingbirds right to a window for close observation, this feeder mounts quickly on glass with two suction cups and remains secure. It's made of tempered glass to resist scratching, has a capacity of 14 ounces, and slides on and off the mounting bracket for simple, easy refilling. (Nectar not included.) There are two plastic flower-blossom feeding stations with bee guards and perches. The feeder weighs 1-1/2 pounds, sticks out 3-1/4 inches from a window, and is 8-1/2 inches high.

Content: This feeder is ok. My only complaint on this one is the plastic that encases the suction cups. You can't grip the suction cups because of the plastic around them and the plastic sticks out away from the feeder itself so you can push in to make the suction cups grip. I did get them to grip, but one time it didn't grip well like i thought and the feeder fell off the window. I like the other window feeders better that only have 1 suction cup at the top with no plastic around it.

Content: I needed a part for my Perky Pet window mount feeder; now that's a piece of junk. They wanted to charge me $6 for the part and $10 shipping. So I bought this Opus feeder instead and now I'm buying another one because it is ten times better than the Perky Pet Plastic Junk. If you follow the instructions for mounting the feeder to your window, you will have no problem keeping it there. I put mine up immediately and it's been there ever since. The photo doesn't do the feeder justice. It's very detailed and provides a more realistic flower for the birds to poke at. And there is absolutely no leaking, which is always an issue with the junkier Perky Pet feeder. But then I won't be buying that brand anymore when I can get a higher quality OPUS product for the same price.
Summary: Exceptionally FINE & STURDY

Content: I was hesitant to buy this feeder, having read several reviews stating the difficulty in getting it to attach and stay attached to the window. All I can say is that if you can read and follow simple instructions this is no problem at all. This item is well constructed and holds fast to my window. The bracket that some reviewers have complained interferes with adherence, actually helps stabilize the feeder so it won't wobble on the suction cups. The trick is to clean the cups well and to remove the feeder from the bracket from the bracket before attaching the bracket. This is a simple and sensible method. The bottle is easy to detach and reattach. My hummingbirds found the feeder within 3 hours of mounting it. They found it despite the fact that I had previously had no feeder at our house. I bought it because I noticed them searching around the house looking for food. I would not hesitate to buy another and actually might do so for the other side of our home.
Summary: Great Feeder - Read the Instructions!

Content: I am changing my feedback to 4 stars instead of 1 after reading another feedback left here on Amazon...I could not get both of my suction cups to stick to the window. But, I also did not remove the bracket and simply tried to hang the entire feeder. After reading another feedback here, I removed the bottle from the bracket and pressed on both suction cups from inside the bracket -- it worked! I still feel the bottle may be too heavy, so I will avoid filling it completely. But, my hummers really like it and use it regularly. I just hope it does not fall off and kill a bird as written in other feedback left here. Make sure to read quite a few reviews on this feeder before deciding.
*Note: it is much easier to fill any hummingbird feeder using a funnel!
Summary: Tricky, but nice.

Content: This feeder has allowed me to finally attract hummingbirds to my office window! (I'd tried numerous other models.) It's very nice, heavy-duty quality, which made me a little concerned about how well it would adhere to the window. It has stayed on just fine and refilling the glass cannister is so easy... you just slide the bottle out and back in (no need to disturb the suction cups). I would highly recommend this feeder to others!
Summary: Nice quality, easy-to-use hummingbird feeder!
