Reply from Vivara Ireland

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We’re sorry to hear that the feeder didn’t feel as sturdy as you expected. Different designs and materials suit different gardens and bird species, so sometimes what works well in one setting can feel less robust in another. If you’d like to contact our team, we can help you with this further.
