When you remove the bowl from the feeder, is there a molded plastic base or does it just have an open hole?

It is an open hole. The rim on the bowl is larger than the hole, so it is held up by the way it rests on the rim.

The bowls just sit in empty holes. They are larger than average bowls and the whole unit is easy to clean. It is also lightweight, it's perfect height for a 65 lb and 85 lb Aussie Sheperds.

Yes, it comes w/ 2 properly fitting bowls. We like it a lot because there are hole cut outs underneath the bowls. Previous tall feeders we've had are solidly molded underneath & water, etc. collect & can become unsanitary if not checked daily. This one is easy to keep clean. Happy feeding!

There isn't a bowl there is just a round tray divided into for compartments that are marked 1 thru 4 and it is plastic. I didn't want my kitten eating out of a plastic tray so I bought her 4 little ceramic dishes that fit nicely into the tray area. I have also used small aluminum round bowls as well. There is a compartment for where you put a cold pack in you have to remove the top and it reveals a square compartment, but I only use mine for dry food, so not sure how it would work for wet food. Some people have actually put there wet food in freezer trays and let it freeze over night then put them in the trays with the cold pack in place and said it worked ok.

To the left of one of the handles there is a triangular raised mark (about 1/8" in size). On the lid there are dimples in the outer side of the rim, two in one location and one on a location diametrically opposite the first two. To either side of the one lone dimple, there is a small hole through the rim. Rotate the lid relative to the bowl such that the lone dimple is aligned with the triangular mark. Then pull the lid directly off of the bowl without further rotation(s).

No if you remove the bowls the food is not exposed because the bowls rest on what could be considered a lid for the system. It is not difficult to remove the top to fill, but I would advise you remove the top when you have little to no food/water in the bowls.

It is a molded in plastic catch. I pried mine and it finally gave away. I have two of the units and one is still tight to open, the other, which is the one I pried open still works but is not as tight at the other.

My unit has no hole in the feeder where the hook is located. On mine the auger is slid into the hopper. When the hopper is placed on the feeder the hook is picked up by a plastic tang and engages.

The poles are metal. Every other part is good quality plastic. The base is plastic and hollow to put sand or rock in. I used rocks I found in the yard. P. S. It is a wonderful feeder!

It's plastic where the seeds go. It seems to be metal on the top and bottom. It's also very easy to fill & the birds use it.

The bowl is separate from the base. The only problem that we have with it is that deer sometimes come by and tip the bowl off.And, of course, the units is very attractive too.

There is no hole opening on the feeder. It can be attached to a pole with included bracket hardware whch will work with a pole anywhere up to maybe 1-1/2" dia. The included bracket will also allow the feeder to be mounted on a wooden post. We hang ours on a shepherds hook type post which works very well also.

There is a plastic baffle. I have two of these feeders. They're fine for something as small as sunflower chips but when I use millet for the buntings, it does have a tendency to overflow - I can't put in more than an a few inches of millet at a time.

The hole is slight less than an inch. It's the same size as the plug in bottom of feeder

I hope the answer below is helpful, because I have been unable to find a replacement bowl - and I have tried. I really like this particular birdbath, so I ordered another one for this winter. This past summer I used the old base to place a very large hanging basket on.

There is an opening in two sides. It's really neat and my cats love it. Before they got it big, they would crawl inside where the hole is and hide there! It's a great toy!

Metal and plastic. I took mine down after a couple of weeks......food everywhere! Whenever a bird flies from it, it swings and all the food goes on the ground. I would not recommend this feeder unless you pole mount it.

No holes in the outer plastic bowel. There are holes on the lid allowing you to pour the water out while the top/lid is still attached.
