Product Description
Brome 1015 Squirrel Buster Classic. The patented Squirrel Buster technology is truly squirrel proof. Thousands of delighted bird lovers have confirmed it. The Squirrel Buster Classic has openings in the wire grid that align with the seed ports and provide birds access to the seed. When a squirrel climbs onto the feeder, its weight automatically forces the grid down, closing access to the seed ports. Squirrels and many large birds are foiled but not harmed in any way.

 Squirrels are smarter than the makers of this feeder. August 26, 2007

No, maybe squirrels can't get inside the feeder, but they don't have to. All they have to do is shake it or set it to swinging, and seed goes all over the place. Then they take what seeds they want out of the resulting mess and leave the rest to rot. They can trash a feeder's worth of seed within a week. I'll be looking for yet another feeder as soon as I can afford it.
 Doesn't Work July 16, 2007

I have a problem with red squirrels and chipmunks. It keeps the fatter squirrel off the feeder, but the skinnier two just snake their hands in and snatch out the seeds. It doesn't stop the chipmunks at all; they're too small to trigger the weight limit. The fat squirrel sits at the bottom eating the seeds knocked down by the two smaller ones having to work so hard.
Worse, because it takes the squirrels more effort to get the seeds, they spend twice as much time working at the feeder. The seed doesn't go down as quickly but there's no chance for birds to come feed.
This might work for heavier gray squirrels but it's a total bust for red squirrels and chipmunks.
 Finally, a durable squirrel buster May 31, 2007

I finally found a bird feeder that is both squirrel 'proof' and durable meaning that it will last more than a season. I purchased two and, unlike other feeders I tried, this one withstood the assault of the most ambitious and agressive squirrels.
This is a must buy.

This is truly a squirrel proof feeder. I have two of these. Only complaint is that the spring mechanism broke on one of them while cleaning and it's toast. Just treat it gently when cleaning. I am getting another one since it's the only feeder I have seen that keeps squirrels off. As for the critters swinging the feeder around to disperse seeds, this is a very small "squirrel tax" to pay. Put some seed on the ground for our bushy tailed friends and be thankful they are not ON the feeder.

This product is great. Without hurting the squirrels, except mentally, it prevents them from robbing birdseed from the birds, while allowing most birds to continue feeding. I don't know about the rest of you, but I have found squirrels to be pretty clever at getting around most barriers, but this device works just as advertised. After two or three failed attempts to get seeds out of it, the squirrels have stopped trying. Surprisingly, we even get woodpeckers taking sunflower seeds from this feeder.
