 The BEST hummingbird feeder! Aug 19, 2007
By Sara Ann
This style of feeder is the easiest to clean, fill, clean, enjoy, and....did I mention CLEAN?? Through the years, I have tried nearly every style of hummingbird feeder, and though some may be more attractive, if you have several feeders to maintain, convenience is important! Plop these into hot soapy water. You can get your sponge inside the whole feeder, and within all of 60 seconds, it is clean, rinsed and ready to fill. (Tip: despite warnings, you CAN use a little bleach with hot water to clean the black mildew around the feeder ports. Just rinse well and allow to air dry.) For those of you who think this feeder is too large for your needs......you don't have to completely fill it! But with the six feeding ports, you will probably find that this feeder attracts many more hummers. Get one and enjoy!!

 NOT MY FAVORITE FEEDER Jul 29, 2008
By Snow White
"The pressure's on...let's cook something!"
For a feeder to be this size, it needs to be more sturdily constructed. Perky Pet has some fine products. This is not one of them. The container is easy to clean, but it's made of plastic that does not hold up over time. The "connectors" which hold the resovoir to the base become brittle and crack, or break off, rendering the product useless. The little feeder perches are a real joke. They broke off before one season was over. What is the point of the larger container? Despite its size, there are still only 6 feeder ports. For just a little more than price of this one feeder, you can purchase 2 30-oz feeders, double the number of ports, and increase the liquid offering by about 20%.
I do not recommend this feeder. However the Perky Pet's 30-oz glass feeder is a very good product.

Grand Master Hummingbird Feeder Jul 15, 2007
By Vic & Carla
"Koko's Mom & Dad"
We have 4 of these feeders for 4 years now and I would highly recommend this feeder. The flowers snap in and then are turned to lock in the base. I chose the 48 oz feeder as we have lots of hummingbirds and I can get by 2 days before re-filling them.

 Our hummingbirds love it! Aug 15, 2007
By Yvanka, sensualist.
I haven't tried any other styles of hummingbird feeders to compare with this one however this one works pretty well. I like the 48oz size of the bottle since we are fortunate to have many visitors at one time and they can empty it in a day. It's great that the flower ports are removable since the hole does seem to accumulate black muck over time. The feeder base is the one bone of contention because it is not very easy to thoroughly clean out.

Good feeder but requires repair - REVISED REVIEW Sep 05, 2008
By Donna J. Lucas
"Bird Lover"
Perky Pet 220 is one of the better large hummingbird feeders. It is well made and should last for many years. The top screws onto the center container so will hold up over time. It's fairly easy to keep clean. The center holder is very easily washed. The bottom portion will require periodic bleach spraying or soaking to prevent fungus growth. Two of my three feeders have developed leaks in the base after several months of usage. I've had to put silicon sealer surrounding the six ribs around the perimeter of the bottom of the base to eliminate the leaking. (Put base only on paper towels, fill with water to cover the bottom but below the feeding holes to determine leakage.) It's a good feeder but repairs may be required. If I could, I'd change my rating to four stars rather than five. Also another reviewer said the flowers don't stay in. I found that you need to snap into place and then turn to secure them. They probably should provide some instructions. I don't regret the purchase but they did require repair.
