Note: It has come to our attention that the Colorful Birdhouses do not meet our quality standards under certain conditions. So, we're offering these at a greatly reduced price (the original retail was $120.00). The possible quality issues are paint fading when exposed to prolonged sunlight, and paint peeling and glue failure in wet weather. We recommend placing these birdhouses in a protected location. Sold as is.

I sent a set to my sister and her family; they liked these initially but the houses all fell apart in less than a year.

I put these together with my 7 year old son. My father is a big birder and he really liked them and the fact that they were reasonably priced AND easy to clean out. He now owns 3 himself!

Comments about Colorful Birdhouses, Set of 3, Factory Seconds:
I purchased 3 of these birdhouses last year. The instructions specify to coat the birdhouses with polyurethane if they are going to be outside. Now although that sounds problematic, before I put them in my garden I sprayed the entire thing - houses and poles twice. Now that spring is almost here again, the bird houses still look great. I intend to spray them again this year before the birds come. If you apply protectant as advised in the instructions, you should not have a problem and now that they are considered seconds the price is great. They are so colorful and brighten my yard. If I had more room, I would buy another set. Also, I set them in cement to make them sturdier than just sticking them in the ground. This was not hard to do with quick cement mix.

I bought these for my mother for mother's day last year. The poles bent while putting them up and by the end of summer the roofs all fell apart and the paint came off.I would not recommend them, I thought this company sold quality products.

Got these as a gift and was delighted!
Put them in the backyard and they looked so cute.
One month later the paint was peeling, the different parts were separating
and they were basically falling apart.
Birds moved into all three houses almost immediately, so that wasn't a problem.
These were pretty expensive and I'm now hesitating to purchase anything else from Gardener's Supply. Too bad.

I received all 3 houses for Christmas last year; put them up this Spring. Had to have a pole replaced as it broke before I got it up. Now I am taking them down for winter and the orange with the purpose roof is falling apart. Its in real bad shape. They were all placed in the same location. Also, no birds used them - but they used the drab brown ones in the same location. A lot of money to pay for something that doesn't last one season!
