I absolutely love this! Perfect addition atop my garage. Excellent craftsmanship, wonderful customer service! Beautiful & graceful - I highly recommend Good Directions!
I have to wait until spring to actually use it, but it has a nice look. I look forward to using it when the weather warms up.
This is the answer to the quandary of what bird bath to use in freezing weather! My latest birdbath had plastic tab attachment points that became brittle and shattered. The design on *this birdbath* is nothing short of brilliant: the bowl simply lifts off the top for easy cleaning, and the rubber coated support points on the base keep it from moving around. I did add a 70W dual electric heater/fountain which fits perfectly in the bowl and keeps the water moving.
I also appreciate the heft of this birdbath- I expect that it will be fine through the heaviest of winds, yet it's not so heavy that it can't be moved with ease.
Finally, I love that the bowl is solid copper (we'll see if that helps with algae grown in the summer) but I'm glad I got the one with the pewter finish. In this area, copper items are often stolen due to the cash value at scrap yards.
In short, this is the birdbath that I wish I had found a long time ago. And the price is fantastic deal for such a solidly made, high quality product from a small business.
This birdbath is absolutely stunning! I can't wait to put it out for our feathered friends. It arrived in a timely fashion and very well packaged.
We looked at so many weathervanes for our pavilion and chose this mermaid. She is beautiful and we love how the sun reflects on her. This was the perfect choice and receive many compliments. She arrived quickly and was packaged securely. My husband couldn’t wait until our pavilion was finished to put her on the cupola!
I live on the Oregon coast with lots of wind and storms. This weathervane has worked great for the last three years, its big and very showy.
I received the cupola via motor freight. It was well packaged. It looks very nice. I have it unpacked and stored waiting for help installing it. I will update evaluation after it is installed.
Looks like a million bucks—wish more people felt that way.
I ordered the blue heron weathervane in blue verde copper. Not only is the quality outstanding, but the company's customer service is exceptional, as well. I had a small issue so left a voice message at the number provided in the box. They got back to me in only a few hours. Matt was friendly and efficient in helping me completely resolve my issue. I'll definitely be ordering more products from Good Directions in the near future.
I love the color and the size for my unwieldy garden hose. I hope/think it will last for years and years.
GREAT CRAFTMANSHIP!!!!! EASY INSTALLATION!!!!!! LOVE HOW IT LOOKS ON THE GARAGE ROOF!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS FAMILY-OWNED COMPANY
The birdhouse was beautiful. I emailed a photo of how it looks like for our client's house. The delivery was so quick. Thank you!
LOOKS GREAT ON CUPOLA AND REALLY SHOWS UP AND A GREAT FINISH PIECE FOR CUPOLA.
Thank you for sending the additional rods at no extra cost to me. The weathervane looks so good on my post, and I enjoy looking at it from my window.
I like to look out my window, and see the weathervane "at work". Hope to have many years of enjoyment!
I ordered the bird house and it was charged on the day of order. It was weeks before I received it. I should never have been charged until it was sent out.
Great product . Should’ve gotten a bigger one. But we love it.
We recently built a new car garage and placed a cupola on the roof and just had the workers attach the hummingbird weathervane. It looks great but haven’t had a chance to see if it is doing the job of changing direction, etc.. Thanks again for your promptness in the delivery.
I bought this to replace a cheap plastic basin that came with a nice ground birdbath. The beaded copper basin is excellent quality and it fit inside my ground feeder perfectly. The birds and squirrels we watched use it the first day seemed hesitant since it was different and from the squirrels reaction we suspect he could see his reflection in the copper which is funny. We love it and can tell it will last a long time. Thank you for making such a top quality product.
LOVE THE TWO BIRD BATHS AND I WAS EXTREMELY IMPRESSED WITH HOW
WELL THE SHIPPING BOXES WERE PACKAGED.
