My bee house arrived and the front was covered in some sort of webs right out of the box. Unsure whether I will return it, but it is currently residing in a plastic bag in my freezer. Yuk.

I was super excited about getting this bee hotel in the forest green color, but when it came the color was not only much lighter, but the paint job was really inconsistent. I understand that paint can absorb into wood, but it looked really sloppy and uneven. If the pictures had shown that, fine, but they looked to be colored all over. Lastly, the roof was made with multiple pieces of wood that looked bad. You'll see in the first and second picture that the roof is haphazardly put together with…

need suggestions on best place to hang. I hung according to instructions, but not one bee in trap after 2 months! Suggestions please!

I have lots of flowering plants, so the idea of a bee house was intriguing to be. I love this product! It is pretty and well made and is a welcome addition to my garden. And, after just a few days, I’ve seen bees buzzing around it. I definitely would recommend this bee house.

I love this - it's very pretty hanging on my fence in the middle of my butterfly and bee garden. I don't have any residents yet (this is my first bee house), but I'm hoping I do soon. If successful, I'll definitely buy a couple of more for around the rest of the yard.

I agree with others that the quality is sub par. Wood panels consist of multiple strips stapled together with small gaps showing (I will seal these up before mounting). Time will tell if it last 1 or 2 seasons. I have some scrap aluminum flashing that I may cover the roof with. It's not bad for my first bee house, will see how popular it is with the bees here.UPDATE:I ended up returning the Mason Bee House. Purchased other ones from LOWE'S for less and are larger and much nicer quality. (Some…

I ordered two of them. The craftsmanship on each one definitely could be better. One bee house had one nail sticking out between the roof and side and the other house had 3 nails sticking out. These look like they were made on Friday night after a few beers.

Very well made and beautiful. I have placement at my garden entrance. The company is amazing to deal with and goes above and beyond with their customer service

It's the perfect trial size to see if it attracts bees! It's heavy, real wood, and overall seems durable. All of my bamboo was in place upon opening, as I had seen some reviews complain of that. Overall, it was quick delivery, and I'm excited to see results over time!

It appears to be very well built, sturdy and capable of lasting for many years. It will be a cute addition to my garden in the spring. At that point, we will see how truly functional it is. It appears to be well designed for it's task - assuring the presence and reproduction of mason bees in my yard.

I love this adorable bee house! Can't wait for the bees to come in. So cool that 1 mason bee pollinates as much as 100 honey bees! Our garden will be happy :DGetting my family some for Christmas too.

Seriously cute and looks good in the garden. Already attracted local Mason Bees and appear to have a number of sealed tubes - hopefully from bees. You will not be disappointed with this. We have tough weather but I project these will serve well for years

It looks really cute. I have placed it where there are lots of boring bees. Not one of them has moved into the bee house. I was in hopes that it would be a solution because I don't want to kill polllenators. Who knows, maybe next year they will gravitate to it.

I've had mason bee houses before and wanted to add one to my backyard. I've never had one with various sizes of tubes before so it will be interesting if the bees prefer some sizes over the others. I'm a little late to the game this year but expect our bees to find this house by fall and for sure by next summer.

The house is adorable and well built. We even painted some flowers on it. Unfortunately our carpenter bees have no interest in moving in.Update: Sadly, the bees still have not moved in. I would put this product in the decor catagory.

Unfortunately many of the bamboo pieces have only tiny holes that NO mason bee can fit through. I had to personally drill out about 1/4 of all the pieces. Furthermore, many of the larger rods have openings only 1 - 1 .5 inched deep. Mason bees need to lay their eggs 4-5 inches deep. The bamboo rods are not secured in the house. Many fell out as the house was tipped forward. It does not include a hook for hanging, rather there is a wire loop on the back that can be placed on a hook. This item is

The mason bee house arrived quickly. It's what I expected. I haven't yet decided where to hang the house. Therefore, I can't really comment too much as yet. I bought this to hopefully inspire some 'worker' bees to hang around and help pollinate our garden. Including our blueberries that had very few blueberries last year.

Seems to be well made, bought 2 of them and was hoping to have bees in them by now, but so far no luck. Might have to adjust placement closer to flowering plants.

great item, built well and ceramic so will take elements longer. Fast delivery, would definitely buy again . Kudos That's my review.

I bought this as a gift after I received one . I love it. Don’t give up. It can take awhile for the bees to find it! The bee house may be too heavy or bulky to move around easily!
