Sturdy and strong, well laid out, nice feature in the garden.
We really liked this bird feeder station, not just because of the practicality of feeding the birds, but it actually looks nice as a feature in our garden. The construction is strong and durable and it was very easy to assemble. The multiple arms allow us to hang many different types of food to attract different kind of birds. Having it all on one pole does reduce the number of cat and rat visitors/climbers, which also gives greater safety for the visiting birds. This was better than expected and so very happy with this feeding station.
Tall thick bird feede
This was easy to assemble, the poles screw together so can be made to the height you like. The handing hooks slot and screw in with supplied bolts. The pole is hollow but thick. A good tall feeder when assembled. Stands firmly upright by putting the four prongs on the end of the pole firmly into the ground. Looks really nice
Good quality but birds won't care
Don’t be put off with the high price, this bird feeder pole is excellent quality and will last years. Easy to put together without any issues as the poles screw into each other. It is really stable when in the ground and won’t bend or break easily.
Quality is excellent and would recommend.
Fantastic quality for the price!!
Picked this up for my mother to watch the birds in the garden.
Assembly very straight forward with no issues. Simply screw the pieces together, done!
The bottom prongs which dig into the earth are big enough to provide a very sturdy foundation. Poles are coated in thick black paint which feels like it should withstand harsh weather. Only had it up a few weeks, so hard to tell at this point but it’s looking positive.
I would buy another of these if this one failed. Very good quality for the price and came packaged securely.
A sturdy, well-made feeding station. Stabilisers work best in soft ground. Lacks trays
This is a superior version of the familiar style of feeding station where separate feeders and loose food and water can be accommodated on a range of hooks and trays. We already have a single-piece pole and another made up from four socketed sections. The latter is a a pain to move, because the parts separate when it is pulled out of the ground. It is also harder to insert into the ground due to the way the point is made. The tubing is flattened and chamfered, unliike the single-piece one, which has a proper formed point.
This iBorn feeder has a sectional pole, but it screws together, and is of larger-diameter tubing. The finial is made of rubber, as I hope all are these days, but the point is of the flattened and chamfered type, unfortunately. There are, though two wire outriggers near the base, which can help in pushing the pole into the ground and in stabilising it. The four wire points can be pressed in with a foot. This works best in soft ground free of stones. A simple sharp point would be more versatile.
The pole comes in an attractive cardboard box, and requires minimal simple assembly. The two wire arms, each with a loop at the outer end for a hanging feeder slot into fixed positions at the top of the pole. The two lower ones can be slid to any height and angle and secured with a wing-screw though the fixing sleeve. There are no tray holders with this kit.
This feeding station is quite fairly priced at 27.99 considering its build quality, but I have deducted a star for the rather blunt point and the lack of trays.
Decent quality bird feeder pole/hooks
I’m always slightly horrified by the prices of these poles and hooks at the garden center which are essentially a bit of tubular steel and some twisty brackets. This bird feeder pole was a bit cheaper than most and so of course quality was now a concern. Well, so far it’s proved to be perfectly adequate, nicely finished, easy to put together and looks smart. It came well packed and the main section simply screwed together to make a solid vertical pole. The ground spikes didn’t deform when pushed into the ground and the hooks attached easily with the ability to adjust the position and height of 2 of them (the top 2 are fixed and just slot into place). I like that it’s not fussy with lot’s of scrolls and twists and I’m also sure the birds don’t care either so long as we keep it well stocked. See no reason why this won’t last well.
Really good sturdy bird feeding statio
Got birds? Need a feeder?
This is the iBorn Store Bird Feeding Station. 4 Hooks And Measures from 43.7 or 58.2 or 72.8 x 1″ And Made From Metal.
This feeding station is really good, we have not long purchased a new one but it it is really short. This one isn’t, it can be adjusted up to 72″ high, with four hooks to hang feeders off too, superb.
I like how sturdy this is too, as you have a 5 pronged base to ensure it doesn’t topple over. The pole is really thick and all screws in real easy.
Overall I’d recommend this bird feeding station, as it is high, sturdy and has four hooks for feeders. Tweeting brilliant!
Good and strong
There are so many bird feeders that are flimsy out there and that quickly rust and break but this isn’t one of them! It is extremely sturdy and has some weight to it. You screw the posts together very easily and it has long staking posts on it to erect it.
You get the 4 shepherd hooks to attach your feeders to, these are not included, and this allows for you to pick which type of feeders you need for your particular garden.
This feeder is much higher than others that I’ve owned so benefits from the 5 prong spikes that hold it in the ground. It really is of robust construction and I think will last some years.
Happy to recommend at what I think is a super price for this.
Significant improvement on my previous bird feeder pole
If you have issues with your current bird feeder pole feeling flimsy, this is a good option to upgrade to. It has 2 top hooks and 2 adjustable hooks, although with the length of the pole it would have been nice to have 2 more adjustable hooks for further down.
The poles diameter is 1-inch thick which is double what my previous pole was and makes a significant difference in terms of durability and effectiveness. Installation is simple, just screw the parts together and then push into the grass.
The prongs that go into the ground are 30cms deep and offer further improved stability. Despite being an upgrade on my previous bird feeder pole, I feel the RRP is on the high side and so for a strong recommendation (but a recommendation nonetheless).
High quality Pole.
Arrived as described, as pictured, safe and sound. I’ve been quite impressed with the bird feeder pole, so impressed I’ve decided to go to the effort of properly mounting/setting this in concrete rather than just rely on the metal stakes, I had intended in doing a straight swap with an existing feeder that has gone rusty in the three years it’s been outdoors.
When they say this is heavy duty, they’re not wrong, this is built more like a washing line pole rather than a bird feeder, it’s easily twice the size (thickness) and over twice as high as the feeder this will replace, it also screws together rather than being a push fit assembly which adds to its sturdiness. A tip to increase the life of this, oil or preferably grease the threads at the ends of each section of pipe, the threaded union (which is removable) and also smear some grease around the joints once assembled as this will help prevent or at least slow down corrosion at the most vulnerable points.
Build quality wise it’s excellent, it’s nicely finished in a powder coated black, two of the feeder arms are fixed, two are adjustable, a slide fit secured in place with a wing nut.
One thing to note, this is quite tall, close to 8 feet I imagine and I suspect, if you have issues with drainage and or soggy soil the mounting stakes might not be enough to keep this upright, especially when loaded down with feeders so I would be very careful where you install this or go down the route of a couple of bags of ready-mix concrete just to be safe.
Highly recommended.
Bird feeder pole.
This bird feeding frame is reasonably well made.
The kit includes a powder coated inch thick main pole, two hooks that slot into the fixed slots, two adjustable hooks; and a five pronged stabiliser, but doesn’t include any feeders or water bowls, which will add an extra cost.
It is really tall, standing approximately 7 feet above the ground, and the arms are just over a foot long.
I managed to assemble most of it myself and called husband as an extra pair of hands to balance it and the ground stabilisers were really easy to push in.
This is a nice feeder just wished they had included a water bowl and feeders.
Good desig
So far I can’ fault this. It is very easy to erect and assemble. The overlapping prongs at the bottom give it good stability and the simple but flexible design allows one to choose the heights and positions of the feeder stations. I got 5 sections plus extra screws in my package so when up it’s quite high but again easy to miss one or even two out but watch out for those cats. Very pleased.
Really good quality and strong pole.
This is fantastic quality, the tubes are really thick and strong. It easily holds the weight of my 4 feeders plus a couple of flutter butter holders which I have fixed to the pole using jubilee clips.
In terms of assembly it couldn’t really be and more straightforward, just screw the poles together – but remember to put the free moving hangers on before you fix the base on.
I’d highly recommend this if you looking for a quality feeder pole. I can’t really find anything to fault it for.
Good quality feeder pole
This is a good quality bird feeder pole – it does not include the bird feeders. iBorn also have some lovely looking bird feeders in their Amazon store which I’m tempted to get!
The pole comes well boxed with nice clear instructions and it is apparent as you take it out the box that it is a quality item. It is very easy to put together. The only thing I will point out is that the top of the feeder looks to me to be made of black plastic, whereas the poles themselves are metal (see photo)
I would be a bit worried about the stability of the pole if we start to get high winds but if there is an issue I could always remove one of the poles and make it shorter and sturdier. It gives good options for every type of garden. Just remember to keep a good distance away from fences and trees due to those pesky cats!
Great looking, tall bird feede
This is really good, though I do wonder if it is sturdy enough. It comes in bits but is very easy to put together without tools. The 5 feet at the bottom give it reasonable stability when pushed into the ground. It is really tall which is good, but I think this works against its stability making it look a shaky. I’m sure the birds won’t mind though! Once in position it looks great and I like that you can position 2 of the arms at any height you like and in fact, you don’t have to have it 6 or 7ft tall, just don’t put all the poles in. Time will tell if it survives strong winds and stormy weather. What would have been really good is if it had the feeders included in the kit but even so, it’s good.
Sturdy & robust | Goes together easily | Non-obtrusive desig
This is a very well made and sturdy pole-type bird feeder – which surprised me a little because pole-type feeders can be rickety and/or flimsy, quick-to-rust & corrode etc. From the first feeling of a weighty package upon delivery to opening and seeing nicely powdercoated rigid poles with screwfits, my initially low expectations were instantly exceeded.
I feel confident that this feeding station will last, but I am disappointed that I now need to seek a flat plate feeder/water bowlat separate and additional cost. The inclusion of flat plates with rims and/or a ring hoop for placing feeder plates or bowls into would make this a complete feeding station and justify the price being north of 25. As is, because I need to look at addtional flat plate/bowl holders I have marked this down a star.
Please be clear, I know & knew no filled feeders or feed tubes would be included. I speak of the practicality that even a single metal hoop would do to really enhance what is otherwise a very sturdy unit, well made and designed with simplicity and non-obtrusiveness in mind.
A good idea, well implemented.
We have a similar (but older) pole bird feeder – with appropriate feeders) which has been used for a number of years but now the pole has rusted at the mid section joint and needed replacing. Those poles were of a “slot in”, not screw in, design. They did allow a bowl shaped anti squirrel baffle (which has an adjustable mid bowl hole diameter) to be fitted
So we like the overall design of the new feeder pole with 6 x 15″ possible screw in sections, the option for four feeders and note that a base stabiliser is included (we had to buy one separately before).
We normally (SW UK) put out 3 feeders — sunflower heart seed, peanuts and nyjer or fatballs. A 4 hook system will allow 4 different foods at once. In our part of the uK the sunflower heart seeds seem to attract the most small birds and the like of woodpeckers and the great / blue tits go for the peanuts. Whilst nyjer is there for the goldfinches , here, they prefer the sunflower heart seeds, and being messy eaters, drop a lot which attracts the ground feeders of seeds ( pigeons, chaffinches). One observation about location – in our area having tress and a fence nearby provides protection for the smaller birds from the occasional predators like sparrowhawks, the downside is that squirrels can now make amazing leaps onto the op of the squirrel baffle
Well made, far better than the usual...
A definite step up from the ‘standard’ stuff out there.
Far more rugged, better poles (screw-in instead of slot-in), and with a 1″ diameter it’s far more likely to stand up to wind/rain… and basically just general wear and tear.
Right at the begining of this month, I finally pulled out of the ground the last remnants of our existing feeder, the thin slot-in type bought from a well known outlet a while ago now. In fairness it has done the job pretty well for the time its’ been erected, but when you put your foot on it to bend it/break it up before chucking out, you do wonder how it managed to survive at all.
This iBorn is in a different league, and like chalk and cheese frankly.
It doesn’t come with any feeders so you’ll have to supply your own. Fortunately I’ve got several already, stored after the original pole finally bit the dust.
Good stuff, and can’t fault it for the price.
On a quality/value-for-money basis… 5-Stars.
Sturdy pole but a little wobbly at full heigh
First of all, this is significantly better than the existing one I use. They are each approx the same height I do like the fact you can screw in the poles individually so you do have an option to vary the height which is ideal if you are placing it on a raised bed.
It is a little wobbly at the bottom but that can be countered with with rocks or in our case, an upturned half whisky barrel and the barrel itself catches food that escapes from the feeders.
Do take note, this is just the shepherds hooks and pole, there are no feeders included but that is accurately mentioned on the item description.
Despite the slight wobble mentioned, in our case and base support it works absolutely perfectly, I have already had crows and other corvids land on the feeders and no issues whatsoever.
Recommended.
Thick and long bird feeding pole.
Described as being heavy duty this aluminium stand I can verify is rigid, strong and quite heavy.
It is painted black. The paintwork is very smooth and well finished however any of the included wing bolts that are used to grip the shaft will leave marks.
The stand is made up of short sections that screw together easily to produce a very long stand. As long as a sign post!
The base has a central ground spike and two pairs of additional spikes that rotate and screw in place for added stability.
The top section has a fixed finial and two sets of very rigid hangers. Some slot and others and can be rotated and screwed in place but they cannot be positioned exactly at the same height as each other if thinking of fixing all four at the top.
Although intended for bird feeding I am tempted to hang some solar lights, balloons or other too.
A good bird feeder pole.
If you don’t have any trees in your garden then this bird feeder pole is ideal, as it can be used pretty much anywhere there’s a bit of ground for it to be stuck into.
It’s quick and easy to set up and is relatively secure in the ground once set up as long as it’s left be.
It’s a good height at 195cm and has four separate hooks for bird feeder or decorations/lights/ornaments.
Time will tell how well it withstands the elements over the years, but so far, so good.
All in all, it’s a good bird feeder pole for the garden.
Tall, Solid Metal Bird Feeding Station with Four Hooks for Feeders
I am trying hard to encourage more wildlife into my garden, and this feeding station is going to be perfect for attracting small birds. I really like that it’s tall, because predators such as cats can’t reach the feeders and the birds will feel safe to come and visit. It arrived in a very nice cardboard box which can go on my compost pile. It was very easy to simply screw the pole together and attach the hooks with the butterfly screws. It took minutes to erect.
The stabilisers at the base are very good at penetrating the ground, which is hard sand here so I stood on them until they were forced down. They keep the pole upright. It wasn’t difficult to push the spike at the end of the pole into the ground either, it cuts into the soil. It feels very strong and secure once erected. We get some strong winds here and this pole does not feel like it would get blown or pushed over. I’m more than pleased with it. It’s considerably better than the rusted pole it has replaced. Fingers crossed I’ll get some goldfinches and great tits using it soon. It looks great!
Feeders Not Included
Nestled somewhere between bird bliss and back garden bewilderment stands the Bird Feeding Station Pole, an accessory that promises a feathered paradise but delivers a mixed bag of chirps and challenges. Let’s set the stage, shall we? Picture this: a sturdy 5-pronged pole stabilizer, not one, not two, but 4 shepherd hooks elegantly poised, ready to host a feast for our avian friends. Sounds like a symphony for the senses, right? Well, hold onto your binoculars, folks!
First off, the aesthetics are on point — a sleek, black design that complements any garden dcor effortlessly. The versatility of the shepherd hooks allows for a variety of feeders, adding a touch of whimsy to your outdoor oasis. It’s like a bird buffet waiting to happen! However, the harmonious melody hits a sour note when it comes to durability. The material feels flimsy, struggling to withstand the elements and the weight of multiple feeders.
Despite its initial allure, the functionality falters in the face of windy days and rambunctious bird visitors. The stability, or lack thereof, raises concerns about long-term use. The last thing we want is a bird feeding fiasco in our own backyard!
To remedy this avian conundrum, reinforcing the pole with a more robust material could be the key to soaring success. Strengthening the foundation to weather the storm of birdy banquets would elevate this product from a fleeting fancy to a backyard staple.
In conclusion, the Bird Feeding Station Pole with its 4 Shepherd Hooks and 5-pronged Pole Stabilizer dances delicately on the line between promise and practicality. While its charm and design are undeniable, the fragility of its construction leaves a lingering question mark. With a little reinforcement, this bird feeder setup could tweet its way to the top of the pecking order. Until then, it remains a charming yet cautious addition to your feathered friend’s paradise.
