I bought this feeder for my outdoor cat, who is blind and can’t travel or be kenneled (she panics outside her known environment). I intended to create a critter proof enclosure, but while testing the feeder I left it out overnight. Sure enough, a raccoon found it. I watched him on video the next morning as he overturned it, unplugging it in the process, rolled it off the porch and down the steps, and disappeared into the night. Two days later I found it down a steep slope, against a fence, unbroken. He had 3 nights with the thing and he not only could not get into it, he couldn’t even break it. It’s scratched up but still works perfectly. Not only that, it survived a heavy thunderstorm with 20 minutes of marble sized hail. I’m impressed. A previous feeder was ripped to pieces by raccoons. Now to create a raccoon-proof enclosure for it so he can’t roll it away.

I have a dog has a timer built in. This took care of it all. 4 meals a day measured out and on her personal timer. I could not be happier.

This thing is awesome. I have two adult cats and I fill the feeder once per week, and my cats are set to go! I never have to think about feeding them unless its a special treat. There are a couple things that could make this product even better though. First, if youre dispensing portions for more than one animal at a time, or for a larger animal, you likely need to set it for multiple portions but theres no guidance on what the portion size measures out to be. This would be helpful. Second, when dispensing multiple portions the feeder frequently backs up and doesnt dispense all the food. Easy fix to just reach down and coax the food down into the bowl, but perhaps a deeper base/bowl would allow more vertical space for the food to fall. All things considered though I highly recommend this! Especially if youre someone who occasionally goes out of town for a day or two but dont want to fuss with someone watching your animals.

I like the voice recording feature. The cat comes running as soon as he hears it. The replacement filters are a bit pricey for what they are, but if you don’t live in a humid area they really don’t need to be changed all that often. Portion size can vary, but this is not a high dollar machine. It does what I need and it’s simple.

This is super stylish but is functionally poor. We have it set to P1 portion size for every feeding but the machine is inconsistent and gives anything between 0 and 12 pieces of food. This is not great, since we need to specifically portion our cats meals so he doesnt throw up every day. We actually measured this food kibble before we bought this machine and made sure the kibble was no more than 15mm on average, and all pieces are pretty much the same size, so that doesnt seem to be the issue . Also, the programmed feeding times dont seem to work, the machine just realeases whatever amount it wants and whatever time it chooses. Which unfortunately makes it useless for us.

I’m a first time pet owner and I find this very useful

Figuring out the portion size took a little bit but after that it’s been AMAZING!

Needs to have a better UI, sometimes the food doesn’t spit out all the way into the bowl and sits on the little ramp the food comes out of. Other than these 2 things this is a great product

i had heard that these dont work but this one sure helps when gone on vacation. the only negative is the voice messages cant be heard...not loud enough.

Bought this because my cat needs to lose weight but whenever you feed her she thinks she has to eat all of it right away. I like that this can be set to feed 6 times a day, so although her portion sizes are small she only has to wait 4 hours for more. Very sleek and modern looking and fairly easy to set once you get the hang of it. Now I dont have to feel like a bad mom when Lucy wants to be fed. I just tell her the machine says its not time yet.
