Customer Reviews
I am very happy with my wind chime. It was made well, and is a decent size. It doesn't make much noise, but that's okay with me. I wanted it for decoration. If you are wanting to hear the classic wind chime sound, this product isn't for you. It has more of a low, hollow sound because of the bamboo it's made from. It must be made pretty well, because it survived a storm that took out our neighbor's huge maple tree. Pretty impressive.
I bought this for my mother's birthday and she loves it! The glue on the construction was a little poorly done, but overall this was a great buy!
I ordered this product for my mother's birthday. It's really cute. Yes, a small bird can use the birdhouse. The only issue I had was how the product was packaged for delivery. I feel lucky that the product wasn't ruined while in route to me. Besides that I would recommend this birdhouse wind chime.
I just had 3 baby Carolina wrens leave my bamboo birdhouse chimes! So yes birds can use it if they choose to.

I bought this for my mom for Mother's Day -- she absolutely loved it! I'd give this more than four stars, but the delivery took a day longer than what was scheduled. But Mom's happy, so it's all good! :)
