Moultrie 30-Gallon Deer Feeder Tripod Quick-Lock Hopper System - Digital Timer Control - 200 lb Feed Capacity - Durable Polymer Build - Metal Spin Plate

good product

I bought this when I moved in three years ago to keep the deer entertained away from my bird feeders. It also works well to keep them in a huntable area of the property. I've changed the battery once in that time frame. I feed twice a day, so I think the battery life has been excellent. As noted, you will need to adjust the feeding schedule occasionally to compensate for daylight patterns. I did have some creature attempt to chew it's way in through the lid on top but it never got in and gave up. Overall I have nothing bad to say about this. I bought the Pro 2 model. I was initially skeptical about the durability of the plastic spinner but it has held up well. The only issue I get is that it occasionally gets clogged at the gravity feed nozzle. I quick jostle and it's back functional again. I think this has more to do with corn quality though than the actual feeder. Hope this helps you make your decision. I am one who investigates things ad nauseum before making a purchase and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

We went on a trip and needed a trustworthy way to feed our dog. I had purchased an automatic dog feeder in the past but found that if the dog knocked into it or a cat decided to jump on it, the weight would reset and the feeder would no longer go off. We invested in this product and are so happy we did. I ended up buying puppy chow because the bits were smaller than the dog food our pupper normally ate. It worked wonderfully. We did fashion a “surround” for it using zip ties and screen so the food wouldn’t go flying far (that would just be mean!). I’m sure our dog would’ve been up to the challenge of finding all the pieces, but we had it fall just below the unit in a relatively nice pile.The unit was very easy to assemble, had no missing parts, and it looks good even right next to the house. The feeder is a great size and you can adjust the height of the legs as desired. It is very windy where we live and the unit didn’t tip over. It operates off of AA batteries and is extremely easy to program. There is also a “key” or “legend”, if you will, on the lid to the battery/setting compartment so you do not have to hold onto any instructions or look up how much food is dispensed in “X” number of seconds. I highly recommend either for use as a deer feeder or dog food feeder. :)

First time set up was easy and looks great and strong...would of given 5 stars but had to go out and buy more stuff to get it running....battery, solar charger, just to finish the setup. Would of been happy if this was all Included for the price it was....Academy Sports has it 20 dollars cheaper..FYI

Great feeder however the deer and elk will lick the bottom of the feeder and it drops feed all day long. If you cut a coffee can bottom out it fits perfectly between the tank and spreader preventing all you can eat buffet.

Love this. Set up in my parents yard to try out before taking back into the woods. Parents would pull into drive at night and see 8 to 12 deer eating under it.

I ordered the Ultimate, which should include enough leg sections to adjust the height from 5.5’ to 8.5’ which includes feet to go on the bottom of the legs. The product only came with enough legs sections to get to 5.5’ and no feet. Amazon service directs me to the manufacture to replace missing or broken parts. When I called Moultrie, they were confused why Amazon was doing this. They are NOT affiliated with this store and only service order directly from them, NOT Amazon. When I contacted Amazon service, they offered a partial refund that would cover only half the cost of the missing parts. Unfortunately this thing is assembled and the box is not in good shape, so returning it was hardly an option. Fortunately for me, Moultrie is actually a reputable company and offered to send me the parts. Which is probably why Amazon takes advantage of them and includes them on the customer service page. So let my lesson learned be a warning to those purchasing from Amazon.

good deal
