764 customers mention537 positive227 negative

Customers like the quality of the pet feeder. They mention that it's a great feeder, reliable, and effective as a cat or small dog feeder. The conveyor feed is great, and it helps keep the boys on a consistent feeding schedule.

"...Its easier than me fillin bowl and keeps a smaller fresher amt!Ive changed settings over time no prob..." Read more

"...The best part is the conveyor feed. We have a larger dog so I was concerned with the rotary conveyance mechanisms on other devices...." Read more

"...This is thing seems to be cat proof - between the solid construction and dispensing mechanism, I don't believe they'll be able to "steal"..." Read more

1,272 customers mention634 positive638 negative

Customers are mixed about the ease of assembly of the pet feeder. Some mention that it isn't hard to set up, and is totally reliable. The instructions are clear and readable, and the product is reliable. It is easy to adjust the feeding schedule and has the versatility of programming different times and amounts for each feeding. However, some customers say that the programming is not simple or intuitive.

"...Resetting was Easy.. id hilighted steps that matter Its a lot of up or down and right like settin an alarm clock When i got to meals i..." Read more

"...Programing not simple or intuitive..." Read more

"...Well thought out disassembly and re-asembly guides. Keep the instructions for a reminder of the set-up and assembly...." Read more

"...Second, programming it is a bear. I always have to refer to the instructions and it’s not at all intuitive...." Read more

430 customers mention297 positive133 negative

Customers are mixed about the amount of the pet feeder. Some mention that it does its job, consistent with the meal size & time they have chosen, and its capacity. The hopper size is large, and the food portion options are massive, from 1/8 cup to 2 cups per cat. However, others say that the results that their cat is being fed far too much every time, it runs out of food on occasion, and there is no option to change the food quantity.

"This works reliably and is a great way to control portion size and meal frequency for a cat...." Read more

"...It is more robust, easier to clean, the buttons respond well and all the options - including the quantity of food delivered (exact amount) - work..." Read more

"...Runs out of food on occasion and has no warning feature (although cat seems to come equipped with no food warning device)..." Read more

"...My cats always knocked it off trying to steal food. But this is a nice large bowl, sits in a ring below the dispenser.4. The display...." Read more

383 customers mention225 positive158 negative

Customers are mixed about the value of the pet feeder. Some mention that it's worth the money for the benefits, while others say that it is ridiculously expensive in time and money. The cup serving it is, again, pretty useless and does not do a very integral part of its job.

"...The programming was prob the most difficult, but its so worth it for the benefits! Now it find it fairly easy!..." Read more

"...and because it is very pricey for what it is ($129.99)..." Read more

"...Worth every penny." Read more

"...I fully expect this thing to be worth the money. And it only took two days before he learned not to bug us for food!" Read more

291 customers mention145 positive146 negative

Customers are mixed about the size of the pet feeder. Some mention that the holder is really large and can hold a lot of food, while others say that the minimum portion size is too big. They like that the feeder has a smaller output size, 1/8 cup, while other say that they dislike the meal size selections, which are not continuous, but are in 14 cup increments. They also note that the bowl it comes with is enormous.

"...the least negative / i can do up to 12- 1/8 cup feedings / it holds a good amt / it has a power cord available to purchase and battery backup / its..." Read more

"...The feeder will not fit through that so where it went was a mystery...." Read more

"...The hopper is huge, looks like it would hold most of a regular sized bag of cat food...." Read more

"...The food my cats like doesn't really fit well and the portions were not consistent. Portions are now consistent...." Read more

275 customers mention180 positive95 negative

Customers are mixed about the battery life of the pet feeder. Some mention that it's good if using batteries, while others say that the batteries got low very quickly, and the low battery warning light was not always on. Some say that when re-programming, they have to take the batteries out and then put them back in. Some customers also say that it chews through batteries like nobody's business.

"...It also has a nice battery display so you can easily tell the life of the batteries.5...." Read more

"...Doesn’t rely on WiFi or an app.Battery life is quite long (but I mainly used the power cord)..." Read more

"...the buttons they said till i heard it run then i decided since it didnt run very long that it might take 2 days of cycles to work but to my surprise..." Read more

"Pro:* Long battery life* Reliable operation*..." Read more

252 customers mention105 positive147 negative

Customers are mixed about the clock. Some mention that the feeder has a "slow feed" option, where it dispenses food more slowly. The Bad: Others say that the clock seems to run slow, and loses time.

"...Will sometimes be slow to load or will freeze. However, this does not affect the feeding functionality as far as i can tell...." Read more

"...Ive never changed batteries yet..Its Never missed a meal!Its easier than me fillin bowl and keeps a smaller fresher amt!..." Read more

"...The only negative thing I have to say about it is that the internal clock is a bit slow, and we noticed after a few weeks it was off by several..." Read more

"...Has a slow feeder option, so if your pet’s meal has multiple portions (is bigger than 1/8 cup) it will automatically space out the portions instead..." Read more

OR DUMP EXCESS FOOD BACK IN !! ( in fact since i chose an amount thats too high ive been dumping some back in till i get it how i want it-------------------------------i currently use blue buffalo chicken rice although i am starting to mix in science diet active after having a tech tell me that they have several bb users with crystals wich bummed me out.. i may go to a blend of that and a uti preventative food ( i could be wrong but i think the way it works is the rx food dissolves crystals and isnt to be used in cats who dont have the problem but the non rx ut formulas may slowly dissolve but at least dont cause them.. i think this could be ok but since im not sure im thinking a mix of science diet and some uti preventative might work for all.. I DID READ THAT YOU SHOULDNT REALLY USE AN ACIDIFYER WITH RX CUZ IT MIGHT BE TOO MUCH ACIDIFICATION but i did see in reviews that many were able to use it with the otc ut maintenance or reg foods instead of rx.. I talked a long time with the company that makes uromaxx and im now thinking if i had dosed her higher right away i might have avoided all the vet madness but 1- i was worried shed detect too much of it in the food 2- i though she was 11 lb but shes 16! So if i had it to do over i would give her 2 ml a day wheras i was barely using 1 ( up to 10 lb is 1.. 10-15 is 1.5 .. over 16 is 2.5 .. so the guy i talked to said to give her 2. And my go to to be sure she gets it all is tuna juice ( people kind).. so while not good to give all the time i would give her that at least 5 days straight to be sure she was dosed.. right now since shes been ok i do that about every third day.. and in between if she doesnt finish all her canned food in am i bump her next meal dose a little to compensate..* i will always use canned food and in bigger amts ( the dry is low in moisture and all the plant material in it creates alkaline urine wich promotes crystals)* ill always add in a few drops of water to canned to add extra moisture* ill ALWAYS KEEP UROMAXX AND SOME TUNA on hand* most cats dont like water near food.. we put bowls all over house.. they also like something plastic floating in it so they can judge depth* stress ( in our case a relative passed and we made a downstairs apt for his cats) can actually cause cystitis in high strung cats and can help form crystals!.. so feliway ( also on amazon) helps a lot.. they make a diffuser but i like to spray it on multiple clothy surfaces like right now our tablecloth and i hang a towel on basement door.. ive used it off n on for years.. i think my mistake was thinking she was handling it ok and waiting to use it ( btw dont use near food water or litter)SO RIGHT NOW IM VERY PLEASED WITH MY PURCHASE AND HOPING IT LASTS A LONG TIME AND I THINK WHEN WE GO AWAY I MAY BUY A SECOND ONE SO IF SOMETHING BIZARRE HAPPENED THE OTHER WOULD BE OK ( we do have people check on m every few days too)I will definitely update!!

Ok..2 years later update.. Mine has been on a cord w batteries for backup for 2 years!.. Ive never changed batteries yet..
Its Never missed a meal!
Its easier than me fillin bowl and keeps a smaller fresher amt!
Ive changed settings over time no prob

Like anyone she wasnt raised with.. And shes a fattie so now that we dont have a kd cat i can again downsize her portions and hopefully downsize her!

I just bought the ladies one.. Now its 99 not 140 so im very pleased!

Very happy.. Ordered on prime..here in one day Yay!

😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸😸

Update 5 months
Still love it.. and thats sayin somethin cuz our male cat is in kidney failure and lost weight so because of that we have to keep a bowl full all the time ( and for a cat that doesnt want to eat his bowl hasta b full cuz he doesnt wanna chase an eigth of a cup around wich is great for the fatties!) so it makess the timed thing kinda pointless but prior it did help them all lose weight!

It dispenses exactly the right amt every time, on time and although he has an endlessly filled bowl nearby the ladies like the tall bowl i set up with this and since it holds so much i can forget about it and just make sure his is full..

So now that i dont really have a reason to have a timed feeder, am i sorry i got it? Nope, its still a nice way to store and dispence the majority of food..
We keep b buf aging/ reg in it and just aging in the boys bowl.. hadta take urinary out cuz it is too acidic for a kd cat

This unit worked great with big fat kidney food as well as tiny bb

Resetting was Easy.. id hilighted steps that matter
Its a lot of up or down and right like settin an alarm clock
When i got to meals i only had to scroll thru till amt cuz i kept same times... and the blank meals i just scrolled thru leaving unchanged
Then hit enter button 5 seconds and good to go!

Its really much easier than i expected from reviews!

Cats seem fine with less food since its not really empty and theres multiple feed times..

I will update again : )

-------------------------------
Negatives
*Price!!
*A little daunting to program at first but read directions then go back through and should be fine
( i highlighted key parts so next time i can go through faster)
* if someone barrels into it at high speed its possible it could tip ( id suggest next to a cabinet or something if your worried about that)
* it is annoying it doesnt have a reset and that you have to take batteries out to do that..😓😓😓IM AN IDIOT AND SOOO BELIEVED THIS BECAUSE ID READ IT SO MANY TIMES IN REVIEWS, THAT I FAILED TO READ ALLLL THE INSTRUCTIONS.. SO FOR 2 YEARS IVE BEEN USING MY PATENTED COUNTERTOP TRICK TO KEEP UPRIGHT AND POP OUT BATTERIES TO MAKE CHANGES WHEN IT TELLS YOU RIGHT THERE IN BLACK N WHITE HOW TO RESET..UGGGHHHH.. SO ITS TOTALLY EASY TO CHANGE TIME AND FEEDINGS!!
------------------------------
Positives!
* although directions seemed confusing i followed them and it was fine ( wasnt sure if i could skip setting the remaining 9 meals so i just followed directions.. left them all as 12 am default and with no amt selected and its fine)
* it works as promised
*it allows me to keep a small amount of food in bowl so no one freaks out that its empty
*its fun to watch their faces when it dispenses
---------------------------
why i chose it..
* cat with uti prob ( i did get an antibiotic in case, not that im a fan of them but it was my one chance with this wild beast and we couldnt afford ( and she wouldnt allow)extraction /cultures .. so we xrayed to be sure no blocks.. gave antibiotic shot that lasts 2-3 weeks ( no pills yay) and because we saw faint grit in bladder are pretty sure has some crystals so instead of splitting a small can once a day and a whole bowl of kibble around.. they now split 2 large cans twice a day and i purchased this to keep her from gorging or from freaking at a empty bowl..
I also used uromaxx here on amazon wich i highly recommend.. although the vet wasnt familiar with it we went over ingredients and decided that it should be able to acidify her urine like the rx food would ( a better option for me because 1- she likes it in wet food and 2- its not recommended for the other cats to be on that food unless they too have crystals 3- at under 30 a bottle, more economical)
* i chose this one because after reaing thousands of reviews i liked that it proportionately had the least negative / i can do up to 12- 1/8 cup feedings / it holds a good amt / it has a power cord available to purchase and battery backup / its black so it goes with the decor of kitchen
----------------------------
some things ive noticed..
* with 3 cats sharing the canned food.. my setting of 3/8 3 times a day is a little more than i need Since they get canned twice

-----------------------------
final thoughts
YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW DIRECTION TO PRIME IT . . I hit the buttons they said till i heard it run then i decided since it didnt run very long that it might take 2 days of cycles to work but to my surprise it worked very first timed feed!
YOU HAVE TO MAKE SURE TO REALLY FOLLOW DIRECTIONS AND DONT SELECT default dog or cat!
*it wont do slow on 1/8 setting since each cup in conveyer is an eigth ( though ive noticed they dont really run n gobble since theres always food in bowl and they eat canned)
* MY PERSONAL FAVE IS THE NITPICKY COMPLAINTS about holding a meal or getting next meal soonerIT TAKES 2 SECONDS TO OPEN THE TOP SO YOU CAN GRAB A HANDFUL OUT.. OR DUMP EXCESS FOOD BACK IN !! ( in fact since i chose an amount thats too high ive been dumping some back in till i get it how i want it
-------------------------------
i currently use blue buffalo chicken rice although i am starting to mix in science diet active after having a tech tell me that they have several bb users with crystals wich bummed me out.. i may go to a blend of that and a uti preventative food ( i could be wrong but i think the way it works is the rx food dissolves crystals and isnt to be used in cats who dont have the problem but the non rx ut formulas may slowly dissolve but at least dont cause them.. i think this could be ok but since im not sure im thinking a mix of science diet and some uti preventative might work for all..

I DID READ THAT YOU SHOULDNT REALLY USE AN ACIDIFYER WITH RX CUZ IT MIGHT BE TOO MUCH ACIDIFICATION but i did see in reviews that many were able to use it with the otc ut maintenance or reg foods instead of rx..

I talked a long time with the company that makes uromaxx and im now thinking if i had dosed her higher right away i might have avoided all the vet madness but 1- i was worried shed detect too much of it in the food 2- i though she was 11 lb but shes 16! So if i had it to do over i would give her 2 ml a day wheras i was barely using 1 ( up to 10 lb is 1.. 10-15 is 1.5 .. over 16 is 2.5 .. so the guy i talked to said to give her 2.

And my go to to be sure she gets it all is tuna juice ( people kind).. so while not good to give all the time i would give her that at least 5 days straight to be sure she was dosed.. right now since shes been ok i do that about every third day.. and in between if she doesnt finish all her canned food in am i bump her next meal dose a little to compensate..

* i will always use canned food and in bigger amts ( the dry is low in moisture and all the plant material in it creates alkaline urine wich promotes crystals)
* ill always add in a few drops of water to canned to add extra moisture
* ill ALWAYS KEEP UROMAXX AND SOME TUNA on hand

* most cats dont like water near food.. we put bowls all over house.. they also like something plastic floating in it so they can judge depth

* stress ( in our case a relative passed and we made a downstairs apt for his cats) can actually cause cystitis in high strung cats and can help form crystals!.. so feliway ( also on amazon) helps a lot.. they make a diffuser but i like to spray it on multiple clothy surfaces like right now our tablecloth and i hang a towel on basement door.. ive used it off n on for years.. i think my mistake was thinking she was handling it ok and waiting to use it ( btw dont use near food water or litter)

SO RIGHT NOW IM VERY PLEASED WITH MY PURCHASE AND HOPING IT LASTS A LONG TIME AND I THINK WHEN WE GO AWAY I MAY BUY A SECOND ONE SO IF SOMETHING BIZARRE HAPPENED THE OTHER WOULD BE OK ( we do have people check on m every few days too)
I will definitely update!!
