Top RATED Hummingbird feeders

One way to determine a high quality hummingbird feeder, is of course to judge feeders on their ratings, in which you'll be sure to find on my list.

Top rated hummingbird feeders listed are made in glass or plastic with up to 10 port holes for many birds to feed at one time - and a 8 to 40 ounce sugar-water capacity. Way to locate each feeder relies upon a s-hook at various lengths. Easy to open with ant moat or bee guard feature available to buy.

While there's no reasoning behind the order of my top rated hummingbird feeders, quality or design wise - it does take into consideration highest rated first.

Remember, that is not to say one is better than the other as all rate at 4 and a half stars.

In putting together this list, I've come to know customers have no preference material wise, so there's no better plastic or glass hummingbird feeder according to most people.

However, glass style feeders are on the higher end price wise, while to choose a plastic hummingbird feeder may be more within budget.

What featured feeders have in common is they all must be hung, so do come with an s-hook or additional fixings - in which I'll be sure to mention if you need to buy extra.

Incredibly, only the one feeder doesn't come with a perch, but that's OK as hummingbirds don't seem to mind.

Capacity varies but the glass or plastic bottle, or reservoir as its called - only needs to be unscrewed to access the interior.

Listed Hummingbird feeders table

As I've only taken the liberty of listing top rated hummingbird feeders with a 4 and a half rating out of 5 only - there's no need for me to list it, but its worth remembering.

Material is in reference to what the bottle for holding the nectar is made in; as you can tell its a fair split between plastic and glass if you refer to the above table.

Large capacity in ounces would correlate to a bigger feeder, along with more feeding ports - but be warned that is not always the case.

First Nature: Plastic Hummingbird Feeder

Cheapest plastic bottle hummingbird feeder, so no surprise to know then that more customers have rated this one over any other on Amazon.

First up on my list is this basic yet one of the best types of hummingbird feeders you can buy, that stands to last well outdoors, with its durable plastic build.

Made for hanging using a s-hook design for hooking over a bracket of choice.

To open this feeder for replenishing, it simply screws open at the saucer shape base, where the sugar water is stored similar to a cereal bowl.

Generous capacity but with the ten feeding ports made available, this feeder is best reserved for only backyards busy with hummers.

More Birds: Big Gulp Hummingbird Feeder

No surprises price wise when purchased on Amazon, and you'd be safe in the hands knowing its been rated well many times over.

Subtle, elegant shape to this Big Gulp branded, best of its kind glass hummingbird feeder with a lovely curve in the glass bottle for holding liquid.

Glass bottle fits beautifully in the hand so is an easy feeder to manage. All seven feeding ports are affixed with a perch.

However, this small s-hook would need an additional hanger for hooking over larger brackets, but its a solid metal one if anything else.

When its time to replenish or for cleaning out, that is done by simply tipping the feeder upside down - as to allow you to unscrew the wide red base in a clockwise direction.

Largest capacity feeder on my list by far, so unless you are visited be many hummers on a daily basis, this big capacity would go to waste.

Perky-Pet: Antique Glass Hummingbird Feeder

Medium size, glass style hummer feeder costs about twenty-five bucks on Amazon, and so this one is inline with that price range.

No doubt about it, promoted as an antique hummer feeder and that is actually what it is, along with a green glass bottle hummingbird feeder this time.

Seven feeding ports imitate blooming nectar flowers, and by far the most beautiful feature of this feeder.

Can sit on the palm of your hand so is quite a petite, delicate feeder; overall strength is solid despite the real glass build.

Green glass bottle is similar to any hummingbird feeding bottle, so to unscrew it at its narrowest point would reveal a bottle-top like opening - of which this is where you pour in your sugar water mixture.

Feeder allows for only 4 port holes for feeding, so this feeder would be ideal for less busy yards, with fewer hummingbirds feeding at one time.

No perches included so at least it can be made more difficult for other birds, such as Orioles to land and be an hassle to the hummers.

Perky-Pet: Pinch-Waist Glass Hummingbird Feeder, Set of 2

Small feeder but with many features, it cost more because its the glass style, and to buy on Amazon its rated thousands of times.

Hummingbird feeder that makes quite the statement, and that is due to the big replica blooming nectar flower feeding ports.

Corresponding to these ports is a perch which hummingbirds use if they are allowed enough time to settle without disturbance.

Only plastic this one may be but with this feeder you get an all important bee guard, in which can be removed if not needed - or when its time for cleaning the feeder.

Access the feeder by simply screwing off the clear glass bottle that comes away from the red base.

Red base is in contrast to the white feeding holes, so can be a draw for hummingbirds.

ShinyArt: Blue Phoenix Hummingbird Feeder

Buy on Amazon for around twenty-five bucks for what is a magnificently designed, colorful feeder.

Any wonder this feeder rates so well by customers is because the stunning yet obvious glass blown blue bottle is finished in a floral design unlike any other feeder available.

Metal base is fixed with four feed port holes with a red base that is used to hold liquid.

Hoop on top of glass bottle is used to hold the included s-hook, plus a corresponding hanger - along with a decorative hemp style rope if needed.

Simply unscrew the bulky blue glass bottle away from the base to clean or refill.

More Birds: Vintage Hummingbird Feeder

You'd be hard pressed to buy this feeder under thirty bucks, but to buy on Amazon its rated very well.

Earlier on in my list I featured an antique hummingbird feeder, and while not quite as elegant in the glass bottle area, this feeder is still a stylish vintage style feeder similar to that one.

Green glass bottle so no need to add dye to mixture, though it can be brightened up more if you use green food dye as an alternative.

Ports holes can be positioned without restrictions but any difficult or if the hummingbirds require a rest, can do so on the matching perches.

To hang is a little different to all listed feeders, but its one that makes life a little easier on you as it uses a single large metal hanger.

First Nature: Hummingbird Feeder

Bare bones feeder that comes at a reasonable price on Amazon, and that's only because it lacks design or a glass feature.

Basic as can be top rated hummingbird feeder but the quality holds well as it does actually what its suppose to do - that is feed hummers with ease.

Number of hummingbirds that can feed at one time is ten, with a 16 ounce capacity clear plastic bottle.

Perch surround offers just the right distance to the port holes making it a comfortable experience for the hummers.

Ideally you'd want to hook it off a small metal bracket mounted to a wall or fence, but to hang it off a bracket that is too wide would need a special extension hanger.

While the bottle for holding the nectar is screwed off the base, this base can then be screwed off again on the bottom section, which is where the liquid is stored.

Juegoal: Hanging Hummingbird Feeder

Not bad for the price to buy on Amazon but does come with a trusted by customer's Amazon Choice badge.

Not quite what you would be used to seeing on my list so its only a matter of time before I throw a different, but in someway a more practical hummer feeder your way.

Disk shape but can be called a saucer type feeder, and because of this unique design it allows for unrestricted flight for hummers, along with better views for you.

Unscrew the red base section away from the clear plastic liquid reservoir to clean or refill.

To hang it comes with a detachable metal hook that has plenty of length to create more clearing between feeder and bracket its hanging off above.

Hovering hummingbirds would have no trouble but there's an option to land on a complete perch surround.

Aspects: HummZinger HighView Hummingbird Feeder

Buy it on Amazon for under twenty-five dollars, and appears to be the most rated feeder of all, but not necessary best rated I might add.

What you would call a saucer type of bird feeder that is flat with no above inverted liquid reservoir, to which this design has its benefits.

Benefit being this type of hummingbird feeder is less prone to leakages.

Of course with no big bottle fixed in the center, this give you, the hummer watcher - unrestricted views as hummingbirds feed.

Central to this the feeder has a long metal hanger with a hook on the end for hanging off a thin bar bracket of any kind.

Low capacity feeder of 10 ounces only with four ports present.

Surrounding the base is a full perch attachment for hummers to land on or have no difficulty hovering above it thanks to the curve of the feeder.

First Nature: Hummingbird Flower Feeder

Available to buy on Amazon for a little under 10 bucks.

Not the most stunning hummingbird feeder for sure, but its certainly an option to get you off the ground at a more affordable price.

Made with a wide plastic bottle that is used to hold the liquid, while the reservoir can be accessed by simply unscrewing the container off its base.

Large capacity feeder so of course there's room for ten port holes, and you must know that if you know many hummingbirds will feed at one time in your backyard.

No individual perches but a more simplified halo style perch that is surrounding the base.

Metal hook for hanging but an additional hang chain or rope may be needed, if the object you intend to hang this feeder off is too thick for the hook to grab onto.
