I had been looking for a purple Martin house and found this one. It was even marked down. I now know why. It was bent when we opened the box and it looks more like a jigsaw puzzle than a bird house. The instructions are terrible and don't address how to connect the two floors. The metal is also flimsy. And don't even think of getting this if you have big hands. Small, tight spaces need small hands to put nuts on. Too much work was put into it to send it back.
