When I got this for my parakeets and placed it in their cage, they just ignored it. They never played with it. I guess it depends on your birds personality to see if they would like it or not, but mine sure didn't.

I got this for the parakeet I had before he died and the one I have now. None of them used it, mostly because they don't like to swing. I guess not all keets enjoy swinging....The carabeiner screw thingy on the one I got always gets stuck and it is impossible to unscrew. It is the right size for a parakeet though.

i dont have my love bird anymore, but i can remember me and my mother buying her this same swing. We would get a new one about every 6 months because the wood wears out. Sunshine (my love bird) loved it! she would swing back and forth really hard to catch wind and fly up. I recommend this swing!!
Pros: durable, price, Keeps Nails Trimmed, easy to clean

My budgies are very active. They climb, they dance, they hang, they fly and they love to swing. Swings seem to be the cliche toy for birds (like Tweety from Bugs Bunny). But budgies really love them. I have two budgies, and they sometimes fight over swing rights (very cute). Their cage has a lot of room, allowing them to swing upside down for a bit, then letting go and twirling into flight. It also acts as a good place for them to sleep. Birds love being at the highest perch, so this is great for them
Pros: fun, quiet, easy

When ever my lovebird Hawk is feeling comfortable he jemps on his swing and plays with his bead/bell toy. It swings really well and Hawk loves it.
Pros: good swing

I like this b/c it's simple and doesnt take up alot of room. My 2 parakeets dont really use it but 1 of them sometimes likes to go on it at night. Its a great product but I think it depends on your birds personality.
Pros: built well, doesn't take up alot of room
Cons: birds kinda ignore it
