I bought 3 of these boings to replace his old ones. The first one went on his gym on our screened in porch to replace the year old one that was getting frayed. The bell came off after a couple days but otherwise it is OK. He spends a little 15 - 30 minutes out there each day when it is warm enough.
Right before Christmas I replaced the boing in his cage (>1 year old) with the second one and the bell also came off within a couple days, Even worse, the rope was coming off the wire at the bottom of the boing making this hazardous. I called up Bird.com and they told me there was only a short (maybe 5 days) defective period and I had exceeded that. After talking to a supervisor they gave me credit for it.
I threw that one away the day I noteced the problem and put the third one in his cage yesterday. Today I noticed that both the top and bottom were coming unraveled. I took it out of his cage and found that the rope is only secured to the wire by a 1/8" mini wire tie.
I have an Eclectus. This species does not have a strong beak for their size. His wooden toys last for many months. These boings might be suitable for a Green Cheek Conure but they are not durable enough for Amazon sized birds. I feel certain that an Amazon or African Grey, with their much stronger beaks than Eclectus, would quickly remove the wire ties.

This is the best deal on bird.com! It really is a great toy! It holds its shape well, wont unravel, and even has wooden balls and a bell at the bottom. My sun conure loves it. I just ordered two more because he gets so mad when I take it out to wash it! Buy a couple of these for all of your birds! CANT BEAT THE PRICE!

I only ordered 3 because I did not know what size bird it would be suited for. I plan to buy many more because it can be used for conures up to med to large macaws. My blue and gold loves it. It is a must for all cockatoos and I have goffins to mollucans and they ALL enjoy this toy. This is the BEST price anywhere with great quality and you can get your birds well stocked up.
