Amazon.com Review
The sounds of nature are sweet, but the music of chirping birds, chattering squirrels, and rustling leaves is even sweeter when accompanied by Woodstock's computer-tuned wind chimes. Made in the USA from nonendangered hardwoods, these chimes feature a charming painted hummingbird and aluminum tubing and are treated to endure season after season of outdoor use. Company founder Garry Kvistad has developed an advanced method of tuning used on every Woodstock chime: each tube is analyzed digitally with a microphone under the tube measuring the frequency, and cutters are instructed to remove just the right amount of material to produce the most precise tuning possible. The result is a purer, more harmonious sound. Woodstock prides itself on being a socially responsible company, explaining that "through the sale of our chimes we proudly support the arts, as well as many environmental and humanitarian causes." Add some harmony to your yard or garden while contributing to the harmony of the earth.

 Delightful! August 17, 2007

What a delightful addition to our lanai! The hummingbird floats around with a gentle, melodic tinkling of the chimes as a breeze passes through. Lovely to look at and listen to!

Even though this is a small windchime, the sound is beautiful. It seems to be well-made and sturdy enough for outdoor use.

I purchased this for a gift to a dear friend and when she unwrapped it the look was enough. I found the item to be rather insignificant in size. The hummingbird seemed to be the largest piece of the entire windchime and I was embarrassed by the rather tiny size of this chime. Once we hung it outside the wind never did move the chime nor did it play a sound though it was quite a bit windy. Sounded ok when we walked outside and it was moving in our hands.

I bought two of these chimes for my grandmothers, both of whom love to watch hummingbirds. With the below exception of a damaged item, the chimes were very nice. I usually don't care for the high-pitch of small chimes, but these actually have a lovely sound for such short bells. The bird was also well crafted and painted but very fragile. I would only recommend hanging this chime on a porch with limited wind exposure; it would not last long in a windy area.
As previously mentioned, one of the chimes arrived broken. The bird is wooden and has a long, thin beak, which had broken off of the bird's head. Fortunately, we contacted Amazon right away, and they immediately sent a replacement item without even waiting to receive our damaged chime. Their customer service was exceptional, and the exchange of products was very easy.

When I received the chimes they were smaller than I thought they would be, probably my mistake for not reading the dimensions carefully. They are of excellent quality. Although, I do not have any musical background, I felt they were perfectly tuned within a certain range. High pitch. (but not the aggravating high pitch, very appealing) If you are looking for deep baritones, try looking at the Woodstock Percussion BWS Bali - (Silver) available on Amazon for [$$]. I find having a range of sizes and tones gives a very nice blended sound.
