Is This the World’s Best Hummingbird Feeder?
Love My Birds Hummingbird Feeder
Hummingbird feeders come in a variety of shapes and sizes, but for years the fundamental designs fall into 3 basic concepts; saucer shaped, inverted bottle feeders, and globe shaped feeders. No matter how fancy or plain the model you choose, there haven’t been any significant improvements in the basic design of hummingbird feeders for a long time. Until now.
Now there’s the Hum Sweet Hum hummingbird feeder, a completely re-engineered feeder that has significantly raised the bar for quality in hummingbird feeders. Created by a small company in the Mid-West, the Hum Sweet Hum is the Mercedes Benz of hummingbird feeders; great looking, beautifully engineered and packed with intelligent, practical features that make this the most hummingbird-friendly and easiest to use of any hummingbird feeder we’ve seen.
At first glance, the Hum Sweet Hum looks like a conventional saucer shaped hummingbird feeder. But on closer inspection, you notice that instead of the usual few feeding ports around the perimeter of conventional saucer feeders, the Hum Sweet Hum has 54 raised, faceted ports in a geometric array on the top of the feeder. This design simulates living flowers that are the hummingbirds’ natural feeding environment and helps attract more birds. The raised ports also keep rain from entering the reservoir and diluting the nectar and also help discourage insects from getting at the hummingbird nectar. The feeder includes a built in 4 oz. ant moat and perches for the birds surround the feeder.
The Hum Sweet Hum’s thoughtful design makes filling the 16 ounce reservoir a breeze and offers you two ways of doing it. To fill the feeder, you remove the top. Once that’s done, You can either add sugar directly into a built-in measuring unit in the feeder, add water to the specified level and mix the nectar right in the feeder reservoir or you can pour nectar you’ve pre-mixed directly into the feeder. When the hummingbirds have emptied the feeder, regular cleaning – which is so important with hummingbird feeders – is as easy as running the feeder through the dishwasher since the Hum Sweet Hum is dishwasher safe.
This hummingbird feeder is designed to be either hung or pole mounted and the manufacturer’s eye for detail even extends to the hanging hook (included) which has an extra large diameter to make it easier to hang anywhere. The feeder is available as a single feeder and also as a two tiered feeder and three tiered feeder. Heavy duty construction and the tough UV resistant polycarbonate materials make this an extremely durable hummingbird feeder that will last a lifetime and attract lots of hummingbirds to your garden. Hum Sweet Hum is designed and manufactured in the U.S and carries a lifetime guarantee.
There may be hummingbird feeders that are more decorative, and there may be some that are cheaper, but we haven’t seen one that is more thoughtfully designed, more ruggedly engineered or that gives better value for the price than the Hum Sweet Hum. If you are serious about feeding hummingbirds, without a doubt this is the hummingbird feeder to have.
