The Big Easy Seed Feeder...Worth Every Penny

Here at Brinvale, we pride ourselves on offering high-quality feeders to keep the nation's birds well-fed and thriving. One of our star products is the Big Easy Seed Feeder, which recently underwent a thorough test by one of our loyal customers as part of the Brinvale Tester program. Here's what they had to say about their experience.

Quick Attraction for Birds

One of the standout aspects of the Big Easy Seed Feeder is how quickly it attracts birds. Our customer noted, "The feeder was put out about 3pm and there were birds eating from it by the next morning, which is great." This fast adoption by local birds, including plenty of blue tits and great tits, speaks volumes about the feeder’s design and appeal.

Effortless Filling with No Mess

One of the biggest frustrations with some bird feeders is the difficulty of filling them without spilling seed everywhere. The Big Easy has solved this problem brilliantly with its wide top, making refilling a breeze. Our customer commented: "Loved the super wide top, really easy to fill without making a mess."

Thoughtful Design for Cleaning & Seed Preservation

Cleaning feeders can often be a chore, but the Big Easy ensures that every part is accessible for easy maintenance. "I haven’t cleaned it yet but everything comes apart so there shouldn’t be any annoying parts you can’t clean properly," our tester shared. Additionally, the feeder's ventilation system ensures that seed stays fresh for longer, a key feature that will be especially useful as wetter weather approaches.

Solid Build and Easy to Hang

The Big Easy is not just functional, but durable too. It’s built to last with solid metal components, including the base and perches. According to our tester: "The feeder is quite weighty and feels really solid. Bottom and perches are metal and the build is good. Loop at the top makes it easy to hang." Durability is crucial, especially when a feeder needs to withstand harsh UK weather and enthusiastic bird activity.

Compact, Yet Wide Design

Our customer also appreciated the feeder’s dimensions: "Being quite wide, it is also short which I liked as it didn’t hang too low." The balance of width and height makes this feeder suitable for various locations, without taking up too much space or hanging too low, which could attract unwanted guests like squirrels.

A Minor Quirk

While most of the feedback was glowing, there was one small design quirk that was noted: "For whatever reason the manufacturers made the ventilation bit bright yellow so it stands out a bit but it’s not a big deal." Though a minor detail, it’s worth mentioning for those who prefer their feeders to blend seamlessly into their garden environment.

Is It Worth the Price?

Though the Big Easy Seed Feeder comes with a slightly higher price tag, our tester felt it was more than justified, particularly with our company’s lifetime warranty on replacing any broken parts. As they said, "It is quite pricey but the company offer a lifetime warranty on replacing any bits that get broken so you should never have to replace it, making it a great price overall."

Final Verdict: A Definite Must-Have

In summary, the feedback from our tester is overwhelmingly positive. They finished their review with, "Yes, I absolutely would recommend this feeder! Fabulous item from a great brand." It’s clear that the Big Easy Seed Feeder delivers on both functionality and durability, making it an excellent investment for any bird lover.

If you’re looking for a bird feeder that’s easy to fill, easy to clean, and built to last, the Big Easy Seed Feeder is definitely worth considering. With its thoughtful design and a lifetime warranty, it's a purchase that promises to pay off for many years to come.
