Steel Fruit Cage with Bird Netting | Heavy Duty Fruit Protection Cage for Blueberries, Raspberries, Gooseberries & Currants | Powder-Coated Steel Frame | Easy Assembly | 100 x 100 x 150cm

Not the cheapest but not too expensive either. Quite think coated steel tubing so may not last more than half doz years (I silicone sealant filled the joints before making them to try to give it a bit more weather protection). Netting also lightweight (the blackbirds can nudge it to get at some of the outermost fruit). However, very easy to assemble and a decent size too - taller than I expected. The netting you have to carefully expand and lay around or you'll rip it (line an edge up with an upright and then walk it round using the clips as you go). Use the ground pegs too as it will blow over in a strong wind, although they're best just put halfway in the ground.

Good frame easy to assemble, and pretty sturdy the only let down is the netting is just slightly too small for the frame once attached with clips it tears easily but overall a good buy. No birds will eat my crop this year hopefully

This fruit cage protects my blueberries from the birds, was easy to assemble and looks quite attractive. It's just to the left in the photo. I find it substantial and it stays put with the pegs pushed into the ground. The clips that hold the netting in place are easy to remove for picking the berries and replace without damaging the net. Once my early blueberry bush has finished, I will cover my second blueberry bush with it, but sadly it's not big enough to accommodate the third-fruiting blueberry bush (which is quite large). I don't quite know what 'thickness' refers to in the review categories?

Liked- Compact Packaging. Disliked - mixture of coatings on steel parts. Plastic Tees and Crosses were not push fit with steel parts and kept falling apart. Not enough net clamps

I put this together in less than half an hour, and it has effectively guarded my strawberry plants against the thieving pigeons all summer. For ease of harvesting and watering, I made a second opening in the netting (opposite the existing opening), and improvised a few fasteners using velcro strips. Definitely intend to purchase more of these next spring to protect other plants.

We have a crop of gooseberries this year. Great bush saver! No pidgeons got in. It was harder to get in the ground partly because ground so hard. Took us longer to get it up than hoped but worth the end result Why did you choose this product over others?: Great job

Assembly of the frame is as simple as described. However there is absolutely no advise on how to fit the netting which is the most important part. I think it is better value to buy a roll of netting and bamboo canes.

Now that it's in use I am very happy with the appearance and functionality of this cage. It was a little bit tricky to construct single handedly because bits kept coming undone, but the end result is reasonably robust (tip: make sure the rods are pushed into the sockets as far as they will go). One star lost due to the clips provided being insufficient in both quality and quantity to tauten the net, which is essential to prevent birds becoming caught up in it. I had to use my own clips plus a few clothes pegs to achieve this.
