Le Petit Chalet Newel Post for Bird Houses and Feeders Review

If you are going to keep this birdhouse on your deck or patio I might recommend this product, but otherwise it's not really made for in the dirt applications.Actually, come to think of it, the stand is not very sturdy so it will easily tip in the wind even if you did mount it on a deck or patio.So I suppose I would not recommend it at all unless you are keeping it inside for decretive purposes.

I bought this stand to go with my expensive new birdhouse and the holes were not drilled in the right spots (birdhouse holes were 4.5" apart, stand was 5" apart) so I had to improvise.Then I had to wrap it in plastic, dig a hole and bury it in the dirt.Why you ask?Because the whole thing is made of wood which will rot, and there are no mounting spikes or ties that come with it for in the dirt applications - which I imagine has got to be like 90% of their market.I suppose I expected that by looking at the picture, but I chose this anyway because it was good looking with my birdhouse from le petit chalet.That's the reason for not giving it one star.

Product Description:
The architectural detail of Le Petit Chalet's birdhouses and feeders add unique beauty to any home. Reminiscent of quaint country cottages, Victorian houses, chapels and other charming buildings, Le Petit Chalet uses real wood, exterior water-based paint, with UV protection, and galvanized screws and nails for top-quality construction and long-lasting beauty. Le Petit Chalet birdhouses and feeders are also built with attention to the needs of birds with details like breathing and drainage holes, bird hole openings, space inside and distance from hole to floor researched and incorporated on every model. Climate and the elements will weather the house and change its appearance over time; however, weathering will add to the item's natural charm without compromising its function. Should you want to preserve the finish (paint), it is recommended to cover it with two to three coats of a water-based semi-gloss outdoor wood finish. You should expect that once left outside, the product will weather and require refinishing.
