St. John Black Cast Aluminum Bird Bath

I could not recommend this to a friend because putting it together as instructed resulted in a VERY lopsided birdbath. It required metal filing of leg pieces plus adding washers to the top of two of the legs to get the birdbath reasonably level. Then the nuts, bolts & washers had to be spray painted. My husband is very 'handy' at making something go together and turn out decently. Unless you too can work with this item, I don't recommend it.

I found the bird bath easy enough to assemble. It really looks great in the yard; however all the cardinals, robins and even a redheaded woodpecker that I've been hanging a seed basket for, will not go near it. I've seen only doves and sparrows drinking from it. The red birds I would guess find the black birds threatening???????

I sent this as a gift to my mother-in-law. She loves it and put it in a place outside where she can see if often.

Easy to assemble, good looking, just not as big as I thought it was going to be. It looks great in my back yard and the birds love it. I will be getting a bigger one and moving this one out front. I would reccomend this to anyone with a small area that they want the birds to come to. Again, the only reason I did not give it a five is because it is a little small for my needs.
