Side by Side Comparison of: Nature Anywhere vs Furniture Creations

Five Star Product: Sturdy, very well-designed, easy to clean and FUN, our Nature Anywhere window bird feeder is the most fun of any feeder we've used. It opens up a whole new dimension to bird watching. We got it two months ago at Xmas. It's added cheer, interest and a lot of enjoyment to every day.

Quality: It's made of high-quality, relatively thick and sturdy plexiglass, unlike other brands of cheap plastic which tend to easily scratch and break.

Design: It has a large round opening (approx 4.5 inch) for better viewing and unobstructed photography. The feeding tray slides out like a drawer, for quick refills. The perch and shallow depth (from perch to window glass) works great for small birds, but keeps large birds like magpies away, so seed lasts longer. Hung away from branches and high enough off the ground, it's squirrel-proof! So far, we've only used black-oil sunflower seeds and hearts, tho this feeder would work for anything (need to get thistle).

Entertainment Value: We fill the feeder 2-3x per day and chickadees get excited when they see me coming to refill. I've had great fun photographing feeding birds from inches away, and making slow-motion videos of them landing and taking off, unobstructed by anything but clean window glass. Once the house finches found the feeder it got really busy. Our house finches are not as bold as the chickadees. Chickadees hang around waiting to swoop in and feed when I'm close by, bustling about the window inside, washing dishes, making tea, etc., as this makes house finches grow wary.

Easy to Clean: with suction cups firmly attached to window glass, it's easy to lift the feeder up off the suction cups and away from the window for hand washing indoors, and then clean the window glass with windex or, in very cold weather, alcohol (which doesn't freeze).

Connects Us with Nature: Besides the super-charismatic, semi-tame chickadees, other species we've seen so far on the feeder include American goldfinch, red crossbill and evening grosbeak.

Bottom Line: We highly recommend the Nature Anywhere feeder. It is well worth the investment.

This is one of the very best items I have purchased on Amazon. Not only is it extremely well-made, sturdy, and attractive (you hardly notice it, so it does not distract from your view outside), the seller is the best I've encountered. He sent a thank you email for the order! I replied and he personally responded again! Anyone interested in this feeder should have absolutely no hesitations. It's easy to install, easy to fill, and easy to clean! Plus the design shields the food from precipitation and lets air flow through the tray to help resist mold. What more could you ask for in a bird feeder?? All my feathered friends (so far bluebirds, Carolina wrens, and cardinals) and I are absolutely loving it!

I had a question that I asked of the site and they got back tome the next day,(Sunday) and that is a rarity in today’s business world and I do appreciate that kind of response. I got the feeder as promised,it was easy to set it up, and it was on my kitchen window in less than 15 minutes, and I had birds using it the next day. It is a very good looking and sturdy feeder, and a lot better than some others that I have seen. I know we will enjoy watching the birds on the feeder!!

5/5 stars from me. I actually bought two - I got one for my mother who loves her garden birds but now spends almost all her time in bed. It took a few weeks until the birds learned to trust the feeder but now my mother can birdwatch from inside her room. This gives her great joy during her day. It was such a success that I got another one for my kids. I love the mornings - my kids eat cornflakes and watch the birds eating seeds.

This feeder is worth every cent!
I have had a wide variety of feeders in my home. Some were average, some were just terribly built pieces of plastic. This is one of the best feeders I have ever had.
There are a few details that put this feeder way above the rest:
1. The sliding tray - one of those "how come no-one else thought of it" features that we love. I can let my kids refill the tray and they do a great job.
2. Double compartment tray - we use 2 different types of feed at our house and this feeder lets us use both simultaneously without mess. Love it.
3. Huge feeder. I recently purchased a feeder that was to small for our Cardinals to feed. I had to actually set a flower pot next to the feeder so that they can stand on it. This feeder is big enough to feed all our garden birds, yet not too big to be intrusive.
4. Great suction cups. Really strong. Think well before you press these onto your window. They stick tight!
I would definitely recommend this feeder above others for anyone looking to buy a window feeder. Great product.

Super cute bird house. Love the details and workmanship. I'm glad I bought it.

Nice bird house ! My mother Loved it !!

This birdhouse is one of my favorites at our campsite. It is tall and slender with two attached side houses. It actually measures 13 inches and is well made. The house itself sits on a wooden oval platform and has a set of stairs in the front. The decorations are scarce but I will be added some more. The trim work is scalloped and stained. The roofing is either palm or bamboo and there is a very sturdy metal ring as a hanger. It will sit atop a fence post and hopefully welcome some new neighbors.

What a wonderful birdhouse!!! Beautifully constructed. There are 4 openings, but the center 2 are nor separated inside. So you could technically only house 3 families. I do not think the 2 side areas are prob not big enough to house birds but I'm not sure. I had a sparrow move into the center the first day. I was so pleased with this house that I bought a couple more as gifts. I am very pleased with my purchases.

I received the birdhouse today and it is perfect.Looks great hanging on our old apple tree !It was very well packaged and was completely in tactand very well made.

Bought this for my girlfriend, who has 3-4 bird feeders going at the same time, but didnt have a birdhouse. It looks amazingly pretty, and as an ornament I rate it highly. Not sure how well it would do as a birdhouse as it hasnt gone out yet.

Very cute product. The only problems are 1) that you're going to potentially attract rodents (mice, squirrels and rats) right near your house to pick up any errant seeds the birds knock off 2) the birds are going to paint your window.

After a few days the birds don't seem to mind if I stand right near by and take pictures

Product was what it appeared to be and it was packaged well, I might get a larger one next time. My only concern is the suction cups holding up. I live in a place where winter gets cold and it will be south-facing so I assume they will take abuse. I bought an extra set from the hardware store just in case.

The only reason I am giving this feeder four stars instead of five is because no birds have shown up yet. The feeder is well built, the suction is great and I love the pull out tray, which my previous feeder did not have. Delivery was very quick. My previous feeder was a more open design and I think the birds just haven't figured out the new design yet.

I was so excited to get this for my cats' entertainment and my own enjoyment as I sit and work in my home office. I looked at other brands and this seemed the best choice in terms of strength and design. I love that it's not too large and doesn't overwhelm the window and it's great that the seed bin slides in and out. Suction is strong, no problem with it staying on the window through rain and cold. I put some seed on the window sill and have seen a few birds, but it's been up for over 2 weeks and the birds have not yet made the connection between the sill seed and the seed in the feeder. It might be the fact that it's almost winter in NY... we'll see if Spring brings the birds.

I like the concept of this bird feeder. However, I live on a wooded lot, but have not had many visitors to the feeder. I'm wondering if cardinals are a little too skittish to be that close to the window? I have see a few chickadees in the feeder, but that is about it.

12/22/2015 I felt that I MUST update this review because I now have Cardinals eating out of this feeder. It is so fun to get a "birds eye view" of the magnificent creatures at my feeder! I highly recommend!

Now, if only the birds would make it their home!

Nice looking birdie townhouse. I added a partition between the upper and lower mid-section so there'd be two nesting spots behind the larger holes. I also added a small peg for a perch under the upper opening. I sprayed it with a satin varnish to help it resist the weather and mounted it on a cedar stump. It's the beginning of nesting season. Let's see who moves in.

Nice. Well built for a birdhouse. The middle section is just one large/tall section with two holes in it...not two different sections. The holes on the two side sections are quite small so it would have to be tiny birds. There is a clean out in the back that opens so you can clean out the center section

This birdhouse is even cuter in person than in the pic. It appears to be very sturdy and well put together.It exceeded expectations for detail and quality.I bought it for a gift and the recipient was thrilled. She said she wasn't sure she'd put it out forthe birds, but might display it indoors. I would have given 5 stars except for not knowing how itwill hold up outdoors--but for indoors, it's 5 STARS!I would definitely recommend!

product is exactly as picture i knocked a star off because one of the flower beds under a window feel off as soon as i removed it from the box had to glue it back on its not built to last but im using mine for looks hung out doors if you are wanting it to last you a little while i would recommend spraying a coat or 2 of lacquer to protect it from the elements

I ordered this for my father who is in his 70's. He loves it. He says its well built and the birds took to it right away.

I bought this as a Christmas gift and despite the reviews the suction cups won't stay to the glass! I love the idea of the product but if it was actually effective it would've gotten a five star rating.

Love how it looks and fits on the windows. But note the size stated.... much smaller that the photo shows. Still have had one bird yet but it can takes months before they find. I am hopeful!!!!

Ok couldn't get it to stay on the window but otherwise decent quality.

We don't have birds feeding from it, but, it has only been up a few days, It often takes time for birds to feel safe with a new feeder. However, the feeder is nicely constructed and it has stayed in place with no hitches. I would give it a 5 if birds were already using it.

The birds don't use it even I put food in it. Color Faded really fast but cute decorations

It is cute, but for outside with the weather I'm not sure how well it will hold up. The roof already looks a little shabby.

It's a nice looking bird house but really doubt that 2 of the dwellings will get used, the holes are just to small. Still like it as a decoration

Was a present. I believe my friend who received the present tried to make it clear to me that the thing is more suitable for indoor use and not actually robust enough as actual bird residence or feeder station.

I thought that it will fit more birds for winter time. What I do not lie is that the opening in the upper middle area is useless as it opens straight down to the lower opening. I was looking for a reasonable price birdhouse with as much space I can get.

Had to glue new moss on it. The original moss was dried out, sparse and not attached well. After some imagination, and hot glue it looked fine. It's very plain, I added twigs and dried berries.

It's a cute feeder, with a convenient removable tray, but no birds ever took notice of it in the weeks that it sat (full of bird food) outside my window. If you don't have trees in your yard and haven't noticed a ton of birds, this feeder isn't necessarily going to attract birds. The seller allowed a return, so I'm pleased with the customer service.

Great idea and style. Became squirrel lodging. Our cat went crazy trying to consume natural bird food group.

No birds ever come.

This is sturdy and seems well made. But it's small and certainly not worth $30+ dollars. It comes with 3 suction cups that I would not trust to hang something this expensive. It looks like it would break if it hit the ground.

The birds and squirrels loved it. I was so pleased when I put it up and the cardinals were using it on the first day and then the squirrels came. I do not have any windows in which I have ten feet away overhands and my house is stucco. I actually had a squirrels hurt himself getting some seeds from the feeder. It will work if you have a huge window .

I like the design but it literally came off of its foundation the moment we took it out of the box.

Sloppy work. Hot glue globs everywhere. Not as elaborately decorated as photo.

Delivery time was awesome. The picture of it was beautiful but needs to be returned due to poor construction. Hook to hang was bent and if I tried to bend it it would snap off. I will shop for something better from a store.

Not worth the money. Very poor construction.

This is a very charming decorative birdhouse. I don't think it's intended for use as an actual bird nesting box though. It wouldn't last long outside in the elements. You could put it under an eve or on a covered porch so it would last longer but I'm not sure you'd want the mess that comes with the birds all over your porch. Some of the holes will need to be covered if you intend to actually let birds nest in it. If I were looking to use this simply as decoration I would have given it all five stars.

This is cheaply made and very lightweight. My mother has had this sitting on display in her house and she has had several different pieces fall off.

The clear plastic and lack of a better area to land does not attract birds.

No birds .

I purchased this feeder for my mother based on the positive reviews. Within just a couple of days the squirrels were having a heyday INSIDE the feeder. She removed any props that might be assisting their access and they still get in! They jump from the roof to the feeder. So unless you have 30 feet clearance N,S,E,W from the feeder don't both purchasing.

Construction is excellent. Very solid suction cups. Even included a spare! Excellent vendor to work with.

Additional update:
The suctions gave out and it crashed down and broke in 3 pieces. I would not recommend it if you want more than 1.5 years out of it. Disappointed. But, while it stayed up, it was fun to have. 1.5 years isn't bad, but I wanted to leave the manufacturer a message of feedback.

Requesting a refund. Although it seemed like it was very well stuck to the window, it fell off a few minutes later and broke. Too flimsy

Nice bird house. Very attractive. The 40 birds that visit my yard daily for food hate it. I've had it for awhile and a bird has never made it their home. A spider did though. ew.

This birdhouse is very cute. Unfortunately, it was hanging on an outside tree for less than a week and fell apart. Thank goodness no birds took up residence. It is now in the trash.

Birdhouses are made of cheap material. Houses will fall apart easily if not installed with care.

This is a decorative piece. It is not a real birdhouse. A little rain and wind with sun or snow and ice and that will the end of this china made thing.

I don't think the birds can get into it like the other house I had, This is more for looks than function!

I had the understanding that this item was a kit and not preassembled. I would like to return thisitem.
