I bought the smaller one of these for my guinea pigs run as they kept tipping over a normal bowl. This is very easy to fill and use. My piggies haven't managed to tip it over even though they have tried. 5 stars

Not one of the best products I have puchased. Has a few design flaws that need tweeking. Have finally worked out that to stop the dispenser losing most of it's water you have to make sure that the longest lip of the water holder needs to be at the front so that it sits in the bottom dish. This way you do not lose as much water as it fills the bowl much more slowly. On the plus side it does hold a large amount of water per dispenser so you do not have to constantly keep having to refil bowls all day. Good if you have cats/dogs that drink lots

I brought 2 of these for the rabbits and they are brilliant. I have no problems filling them, I dont spill any water at all most of the time now. As long as the top is the right way round, my dad found that one out!

easy to fill with water and there is 3 days supply for one cat. Food gets stuck so I just leave a large bowl of kibble.

Bought this for "our" second cat (comes in from next door...). The only niggles are that when I've used it for dry food I have to give it a bit of a shake or tap to get it to flow out of the main part,, and I find it a bit hard to not spill the water when I put filled container onto the base again.

Our cats used to play with the water in an open bowl and we often found the kitchen more or less flooded, but this dispenser solved the problem and even made them to drink more often than before. Besides, the water stays fresher in the container than in an open bowl. However, the bowl of the dispenser is a little too small for our 7kg male ragdoll (his cheeks touch the rim when he drinks) - but until now he has been ok with it. And yes, as far as drinking and eating are concerned, I would normally prefer ceramics or glass to plastic, but this dispenser seems to be resistant to scratching etc.

I found this to work quite well, except that the biscuits do tend to get stuck inside sometimes, however, my cat soon lets me know loudly if that happens. The top does seem to come off too easily though, resulting in a whole fill of food all over the floor, but a couple of thick elastic bands do the trick of holding it on. Overall a good buy.

Hi all, we bought one of these for our kitten the filling upside down and turning over technique means that the top has some empty space, however there is still more than enough for a couple of days without refilling. If you are going away for longer and want to utilise the full capacity, fill the sink with water and fill the tub and turn it over under water. You will have a full tub that will provide a weeks water for our little kitten, great product for the price

I have the large one of the 2 sizes, is fine for water, I have had no problems filling it (upside down for those who aren't sure!) pop the dish part on and then flip it over. No leaks, No problem. Not using it for food but my 3 cats use this fine. Lasts a couple of days before need to refill. really good value I think.

We now have 4 of these and will send for one more. For several years our Cairn who is diabetic & losing the sight in one eye, has oushed her normal bowl causing pools of water on the kitchen floor. Not even putting it in a large roasting tin & using absorbant mats made her stop! ONE Dog Fountain in the kitchen has done just this. No more pools on the tiles. And she loves the others outside. So do I as I now have only to fill them once a day! Allen Tipton

I bought four of these for my two cats while we are on holiday . Putting water in them is quite tricky but once mastered it's fine although I've found when you put dry food in , the biscuits take a little persaution to spill out. I'm a little worried now that the cats are going to find it hard to get the food out when they are hungry. On the whole a good idea but not quite sure how practical it is.

I got this for my toy poodle as he has a tendency to upturn his regular water bowl. I bought the small size. The amount of liquid it can hold is great, but I found the drinking area is very small. If I was buying again, I would go for the larger size. I don't think either size would be big enough for a medium to large dog. I found it easy enough to fill, just fill upturned reservoir to the rim, place tray/bowl on top and turn it upright slowly. Works every time.

I bought one for water (works great once you get the wrist flip mechanism down) and a larger one for dried food as i sometimes am away over night. The food really doesn't seem to work as the "gravity" mechanism doesn't get the food coming out the bottom once the kittens have eaten what's in the bowl. There is a slight slope in the storage bowl end but even so the food doesn't "slide down"

I bought this for my two kittens and it works great. You have to be quick to flip it over (the first time the water went everywhere!) and I've started filling it with mostly ice cubes to stop the water stagnating which seems to be working well.

Easier to use than some of the reviews may lead to believe - simply turn the filled container upside down, put the dish on top and tip back the right way up. My cats are very happy to eat & drink from these dispensers so I recommend.

This works on the same principle as a water feeder you would use for a budgie, it's a great invention but a little trickier to fill, I found filling the container to the rim then while holding the full container upside down, placing the base on with the tray the cats will drink from facing toward you, then slowly tilting away from you so that the tray is facing up before leveling out, allows the water to fill slowly into the tray without spilling, my kittens love it so it's worth the patience and practice to master filling it.

Works a charm and the kittens took to it rigt away! Just fill it up while holding it upside down, press the base in to place and then turn it the right way up! Voila!

This does exactly what it's supposed to, nice design and doesn't take up much room. I bought it for my persian kittens as they tend to dip their whole face into the water. This is ideal as it only lets out a shallow pool of water at any one time but will provide them with enough water throughout the day! With a little pratice it's easy to fill (turn upside down) without spilling!

I love this! It has the advantages of both a bowl and water bottle. It is easy to clean, fill up and does not take up much space at all!

There IS no opening on the top which, i've discovered, is due to physics & water. A top opening would let air through & the water level in the container would never be higher than the level in the bowl defeating the object of having a feeder of this kind. This does not apply to food. I have the purpose built one for food only which CAN be re-filled from the top. Once the physics is clear it is a simple but sturdy product. The container separates easily from the bowl & its easy to clean.
