Product Description

By entering your model number, you can make sure that this fits.
When fully assembled, this system is made of 16 gauge steel with a durable powder coat finish and stands approximately eight feet tall.
The pole assembly is made of tubular steel with a diameter of two inches and four arms that can support up to eight different bird feeders or other hanging items like bird baths or flower baskets.
The squirrel-stopper baffle on the pole is shaped like an inverted cone and is spring-loaded, allowing it to move up and down as well as side to side.
A ground auger is built into the pole's bottom section, making installation simple and secure.
The system is simple to put together and has a nice, Victorian look when finished.

Questions & Answers

Is anyone familiar with the "new bronze textured color"? I'm curious if that's a better product in light of the rust complaints. ?

The bronze one has been in my possession for over a year. There isn't even a trace of rust! The squirrels have never been able to defeat it, which makes it the best purchase ever!

Is this a product from Duncraft?

This isn't one of Duncraft's creations. I used the Duncraft product, which was very light and low-profile. metal of a high quality This is a very serious, heavy-handed piece. standing in the line of duty

Is it possible to compare the quality of this pole system to Wild Birds Unlimited's pole and baffle?

Yes, you are correct. There are no parallels to be made. The squirrel deterrent is effective. The most important thing is to keep it at least 6 feet away from any trees or bushes from which the squirrels could jump; otherwise, they will not be able to climb the pole. You can also add various types of feeders, as well as attractive hanging plants and a hanging bird bath. As a result, it's quite lovely and decorative, and I like it so much that I have one in my front yard and bought a second one for my back yard last fall. Excellent product when properly placed!

Please let me know the diameter of the pole and the baffle. Raccoons would be deterred as well. Thank you very much. ?

The pole is 2" in diameter, and the baffle is 8" wide at its widest point on top and about 4" wide at the bottom. I don't see why the baffle wouldn't deter raccoons, who are climbers rather than jumpers, and would be thrown off by the baffle. But there are some really smart critters out there so I wouldn t 100% guarantee that a raccoon couldn not figure out how to get above the baffle but I would think%

Selected User Reviews For Squirrel Stopper Deluxe Squirrel Proof Pole System with Baffle - Ultimate Bird Feeder Garden Pole - Holds up to 8 Bird Feeders, Bird Houses, Windchimes and More - Antique Pewter

It's fantastic! THIS IS AMAZING! So, I was hesitant to spend so much money, but I'd been reading reviews for a year and was torn between this one and the one at wild birds unlimited
5/5

I finally had enough of the raccoon stealing the bird feeders and making a mess of my yard, as well as the squirrels dumping seeds on the ground, and decided to take action. br>I read a lot of reviews and saw that spraying the pieces with rustoleum was recommended, so I did that right away when it arrived. It's easiest if you have somewhere to hang the poles to dry (I used shepherd hooks I already had outside), and the only piece that's difficult to spray is the one that holds the squirrel stopper. br>Once it was dry, I was able to put it together on my own, and the instructions were simple and easy to follow. You'll want to keep an eye on the level of the post that goes into the ground. Make sure you have a leveler with you because the first time I twisted it into the ground, it went slightly skewed and I didn't realize it until I attached the next pole. br>The hooks are well-placed and look great. The brackets provide good support for the poles, and it can hold some of my heavier feeders. If the weight isn't evenly distributed on both sides, the table will lean slightly. br>My complaint stems from a misunderstanding on my part; I failed to consider that, while it can accommodate a large number of feeders, the type of feeder has a significant impact on how they can be hung. For example, I couldn't hang two larger traditional feeders (like those with roofs) next to each other because they'd collide. A traditional tube feeder with a long tube would be better for me. I ended up using a combination of suet and tube feeders in addition to traditional feeders so that I could see all of the birds. I couldn't believe how many birds I was seeing. I had birds trying to land while hanging the feeders. br>As for its stopping power. I've sat and watched squirrels try and fail to get up the stopper over and over again. I discovered some surface scratches on the stopper that are too large for a squirrel, so it appears the raccoon tried and failed at some point. So far, the rustoleum has held up well, and the parts have not rusted despite the Florida rains.

It's a Squirrel Test! (1) It is a sturdy pole; Make sure it's screwed into the ground as far (or as far) as the pole's label - It's quite tall, so despite my 5'7" height, I'll have to settle for a 1-
4/5

To refill the feeders, you'll need a two-step stool. (2) The two arms could have been longer to prevent the inside feeders from being so tightly packed together - I'll need to get some thinner feeders for those areas. It's too jumbled with eight people in such a small space. I might end up with only four feeders (which defeats the purpose of getting one that can hold eight). br>(3) The hangers' eight tiny hooks are extremely fragile - I'm not sure how long they'll last; they could be thicker - stronger. (4) The baffle pole simply rests on top of the pole beneath it, and the pole above it rests on top of the baffle pole - There are no screws holding them in place to keep them secure. Anyone could easily raise and lower a pole without difficulty - This does not appear to be a good thing - It wouldn't have taken much to secure the poles (the baffle works with springs inside, so it wouldn't have made a difference if the poles were more securely fastened). (5) The slim baffle is far more appealing than the large round baffles - This is a plus!br>(6) When adding feeders, make sure to balance the weight on all sides, starting with the heaviest ones. br>(7) This is a large feeder pole that is very attractive, and the curious squirrels haven't found a way to get to the feeders yet. br>(8) It's pricey, but if it solves my problems with squirrels jumping on the feeders and preventing birds from eating, it'll be worth it. I'll tell my friends and neighbors about it because it's well worth it.

Stopper for Squirrels - Caution: This is a rusted warning
3/5

When it arrived, it made me very happy. It appeared to be well-made and sturdy. It is nearly rusted through after only six months. Due to the rust, the sliding portion of the slider at the connecting point to the dome (the top part of the slider) is nearly severed; I do not recommend this product, especially in a humid or wet environment. At the age of one year, the photograph is attached.

It was tweaked to make it more suitable for people of shorter stature
5/5

Finally, the raccoon was defeated. I had a shepherd's hook on hand. The raccoon would shake it until it dislodged the feeder. He then bent the pole to lower the feeder to his reach after I clamped it. I would straighten the pole every day, and he would bend it down every night. br>Squirrels are defeated by the squirrel stopper's baffle design, while raccoons are defeated by the hefty pole design. I've finally gotten to the point where all I do now is feed birds. br>br>As I was using the auger, I hit a rock, so it's not quite at the recommended depth (making it even taller). Because my wife and I are both short, I didn't want to hang the feeders as low as we wanted because the squirrels can jump. I can't use a step stool because of an injury. So I made a flag pole out of it. I drilled a hole in the main pole near the lower crossbar and inserted a 1/4 x 3 1/2" eye bolt. I drilled a hole and then drilled another just above the baffle (see photo 3). Then I ran 1/8" black nylon cord from the lower eye bolt to the upper, out the arms through existing eye bolts, and down to a small carabiner to attach the feeders. We can raise the feeder by pulling down on the nylon cord just below the upper eye bolt, then clipping the snap clip into the lower eye bolt to keep it in place. Unhook the clip and let the feeder drop until the end of the cord is reached to fill the feeder. Feeders can be seen in both positions in the photos.
