A bowl that could have been really practical. But having 5 adjustable times for 6 compartments just makes everything confusing. In fact, despite several attempts, the numbered compartment never matches the programmed time. There’s always a mismatch, even when taking the '0' compartment without a set time into account. Very complicated for meals with medication that need to be taken at more or less regular times...

Totally unsuitable for wet food. Everything goes bad. Programming is really easy and the compartments open at the set times. Since we're going on holiday and the cat sitter shouldn't have to come up so often, I bought this device. Unfortunately, it's completely pointless.

The feeder is really nice and practical, easy to program and clean, and my cat quickly picked up on the sound of the trays switching. Unfortunately, the feeder breaks down quite quickly. The tray-moving mechanism or electronics just fail on their own. Sometimes it works, then it won’t move at all or only partially. The first time this happened, it was still under warranty and I got a new one – which was fine, but after a while, that one broke in exactly the same way. I bought a third one – same story, but this time just after the warranty expired.
