Excellent product!! I bought this for mounting a bird feeder that my wife had made that was to be set in an area in our back lawn. I quickly put the kit together, got the pole set firmly in the ground with the twist anchor and then mounted the bird feeder platform on the top metal platform of the pole. It was easy to do and gave us a very sturdy feeder holder which has now lasted for over a year, surviving all the typical weather we see from icy winters to hot summers. Very reasonable price as well considering what comparable quality products are available in the marketplace.
