Product Description
This high quality, hand crafted bird pavilion provides plenty of space for a secure picnic for your feathered guests. Designed for windy and rainy areas this feeder features perforated plastic floors – closely placed holes to keep millet from falling through-yet drain easily. Smooth surface will brush out or dump out easily, but is part of the feeder and will not blow or fall out. Probably the best use of perforated plastic flooring to easily drain rain and snow from a fly-thru feeder. Concealed galvanized steel hopper and gravity tube makes an all day attraction. 12 to 15-pound mixed seed capacity. 17-inch w by 15-inch h by 20-inch l. Stovall products feature all cedar construction, stainless steel and dichromate plated screws, washers, hooks and chains, hand sanded, assembled with screws, many products coated with wood protector which accents the wood grain and the natural warmth of cedar. Environmentally green practices – hand sorted down graded lumber. The Shop is heated with scrap wood, cooled with natural shade and insulation, nestled in a glen among 25+ acres of beech/maple/oak forest. Rumored staffing of woodland gnomes with a payroll of nuts and berries is still not factual.Stovall 6FP Pavilion Feeder with Perforated Plastic Bottom Review
This is my 2nd Stovall Pavilion Feeder. The first lasted in the elements almost six years. I opened and closed the lid almost every day to ensure that the seed in the hopper was moving into the clear column shoot. In the end the hinges at the top wore out. My 1st Stovall had the wood bottom, not the perforated plastic bottom. I live in Oregon, and the seed began to stick and get gooey in the bottom unless I cleaned and scraped the bottom fairly frequently. The cleaning and scraping also wore out the screen covers for the holes in the floor, so I had to change those screens a few times a year as well. I got the perforated plastic bottom this time in the hope that it would not need so much cleaning, and so far that appears to be the case. This one is much better for a rainy climate.The only negative was that there was a crack in one side of the roof when the feeder arrived. It happened when the assembler screwed the top down. We had to make sure to fill the crack with wood filler and glue thoroughly, or else the rain would have definitely gotten into the hopper and ruined the feed. Quality control missed the crack before sending, but the rest of the feeder is so well constructed that I think the crack was an aberration.
