Hollow gurgling noises

Functions well once you get a proper seal and I'm very happy with the quality. However, the water creates an echo in the ceramic bowl as it hits the bottom so while the pump is extremely quiet there is still a lot of noise! Now it's a more pleasant noise than the usual water pump noise from other cat fountains, but I'm not sure I'll be able to have it just outside the bedroom door as I had planned!

Fontánka

It only worked for a very short time. We tried changing the filter, various adjustments, cleaning, etc., but we couldn't get it working again.

Perfect

So yes, the suction cup doesn’t stick when it’s dry like the other review says, but you don’t need it to because with water the effect works and it’s perfect. My cat’s been using it for 4 months already and everything works perfectly – the water stays fresh and it’s easy to clean.

příslušenství: náhradní pumpa

Beautiful but impractical

The fountain is really beautiful. Plus, it's easy to clean and the ceramic surface is a big plus for me. Unfortunately, the pump and filter are only attached with suction cups, so you need to fiddle with it a bit to get them positioned correctly with the lid. A major downside, and the reason I ended up not using the fountain and got a different one, is the very unstable stream. It splashes everywhere, so when the cats tried to drink, it usually just went up their noses and then they were scared to try again. So I bought a fountain with a 'tap' and it's much better.

Satisfied

This one is completely silent, super easy to assemble and disassemble, very easy to clean (not many nooks and crannies), and it looks really nice. The only downside is that the water can spill over if your floor is a bit uneven (because the edges aren’t higher than the surface the water runs on), but I solved this by putting a silicone mat with edges underneath.

Cute, small and functional

I have this fountain next to my sink on the kitchen counter, so my cats can easily drink running water. On the first day, they didn’t quite understand what it was, but soon enough they started using it a lot. It’s easy to clean—I also have a stainless steel fountain, which I find less easy to clean. I thought it would stand out and be annoying, but it actually fits well with my interior and I’m really happy with it.

The best fountain

Our cats have tried several fountains, but this is the only one they really enjoy and absolutely love!

Simply a great product

I saw this drinking fountain and instantly fell in love with its design. When I unpacked the box and set it up, my cat was already helping me out ;). She took to it from the very first minute. It’s quiet and encourages her to drink. I would definitely recommend this product.

Pump is nothing but trouble

The drinking fountain is not recommended at all. The pump barely works, if at all, and hardly any water comes out at the top. The setup of the pump is really strange too. The pump and filter don’t even reach the opening where the water is supposed to come out. We had to improvise and put a stone underneath just to get it working at all. The only positive thing about this drinking fountain is that it looks nice, but it’s completely impractical. It causes more problems than it solves.

So much fun!

I ordered the drinking fountain a few months ago from somewhere else, but I'm really happy with it. And now I'm especially glad that I can order the filters and everything here 😊

Does exactly what it should

The fountain arrived really well packaged and in perfect condition. The only downside is that the pump is really powerful. The slider is very loose, and even when it’s barely open, the fountain still shoots up quite strongly. The lid sits on top in such a way that there’s a risk of it overflowing. We ended up cutting up some anti-slip pads and putting them on the edge, so now the water can flow back into the fountain again.

Really fun

It’s a nice-looking water bowl and all the cats drink from it really well. So far, I can hardly hear the motor. The only downside is that it’s a bit tricky to lift the lid with the whale on it when it’s wet.

Not worth the hassle

The product doesn’t work properly, and it’s a hassle to connect the water pump to the lid so the water comes out of the whale – and this happens every time it needs to be refilled. I have a kitten that drinks a lot, so I have to struggle with it quite often. The design is really cute, but unfortunately, I don’t think it’s worth the trouble.

Difficult setup and refilling

The product is a bit tricky to get working. The suction cup and the lid don’t quite fit together and don’t reach the bottom, so it’s difficult and takes some time to get the whale to spray. It’s a hassle every time you need to refill it with water.

Cute design, but doesn’t work perfectly

It really is a cute design and the idea behind it is also very good. But unfortunately, the product falls short—the motor part with the suction cup isn’t built so it can reach from the bottom to the whale section. The suction cup also can’t stick to the lid. So you have to get a bit creative yourself to make it work. The motor itself isn’t strong enough either to pump the water for long; once the water level drops by about a quarter of a litre, it can’t pump the water up anymore.

Poor design

Fountain unusable because the suction cup on the filter doesn’t stick at all to the “lid”. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Cute but has flaws

Cute fountain and hygienic, plus easy to clean. However, the pump isn’t strong enough to pump the water out. We put a thin card under the pump. Even then, you have to get the angle just right so the water comes out, but not too much. It’s quiet and not disturbing :)

Good product

The fountain does what it’s supposed to. It arrived in great packaging that protected it from any damage. The only downside is that the pump is quite powerful for such a small fountain, and the slider to adjust it is a bit loose, so it takes a few tries to get the pump to stop spraying too much. Other than that, the fountain makes a really good impression, especially for the price!
