Reviews:

“Very happy with this feeder. Easy programming and seems reliable so far. It holds enough for a few days of food and the price is very good. The feeding dish locks on to the bottom to prevent tipping so I also purchased the stainless dish that fits this to make it easier to feed. Good low price as well.”

“Many options for feeding schedules. Easy to program. Works great! Battery back-up gives piece of mind when away for extended periods of time that food will still dispense even if there’s a power outage. Well designed and sturdy.”

“Absolutely the best and easiest to use. I tried those with the tiny instructions. Geez you needed to be a rocket scientist to figure that out. Easy to set for multiple feedings. I bought 2 for my cats. If you buy anything else you’re wasting your money.”

“This was an excellent purchase for my cat. When I need to be away for the day I know he’s getting the right portion of his dry food at the right time. It was very easy to set up. He now knows when he hears the dry food hit the pan, it’s time to eat. The aluminum pan that lifts out is very easy to clean to keep it sanitary.”

Reviews

“This automatic, battery-powered, five compartment pet feeder is top notch. Allowing me to use reusable ice packs, reusable batteries, and DIY pet food to keep my cats better fed and safer in my home during the busy weekday hours. As despite working-from-home, I am often working for hours upon end writing. This feeder allows me to prep my feeder at night, add compartments during the morning, and be ensured my cats, Boo Radley, Clementine, and Asher, are well feed each and every single day. It’s a must-have for pet owners at home!

“Works well for managing family cat’s weight loss journey! It can also be used to feed him when no one is home to do so. The alloted space for portion sizing seems appropriate. Cat was intrigued and the feeder would get his attention. Wish it came in more color combinations though.”

Reviews

“This is a must have for the automatic feeder. Easy to clean and so much more sanitary.”

“Overall I’m very happy with the feeder. It does exactly what we need. We have a cat that can only eat a prescription wet food and must do so in 4 smaller meals per day. This feeder allows us to feed him the early breakfast he wants (he doesn’t wake us up anymore) and lunch while we’re still at work.“
