I bought this with some apprehension and can say honestly it was a BIG surprise and relief to see it in action! The set up was a little tricky (mostly because I hate reading directions) but ultimately it is a GREAT feeder. Perfect for cats who eat smaller portions or need food control for those chubbier kitties. I love that I got to record a message when it's feeding time. They know when momma calls its time for food, so keeping in that tradition I thought was awesome! With regard to size, look etc., for those concerned with the esthetic of their home décor, I am a freak about that and it really is not an eye sore at all! Small, sleek, really nice!!!

This auto feeder is exactly what you're looking for if you want an easy solution to feeding your pet in those early mornings you don't exactly want to wake up for, haha! Hopper holds enough for my cat for several weeks, so if you have a water fountain and decent litter, you will be able to leave for a weekend and feel secure leaving your cat.

The feeder seems to do its job. There are few times when I am not home when it dispenses, but I get worried it didn't dispense. Trying to decide if my cats were just hungry or of I over think.

I used the backcountry cat food brand, which has large chunks (and small chunks) that got stuck and broke the small plastic turning mechanisms. Now it only spits out using gravity (so almost nothing) even though I’m using smaller kibble now.

I've had this feeder now for a few weeks and it's worked as expected. It dumps out around 1/8 of a cup of purina one cat food with each feeding. I took the bowl out and just let the food fall out onto a silicone feeding mat my cats prefer to the included bowl. I wish it had more scheduled feeding times a day and the ability to drop less food per feeding since I would prefer to let my cats graze small amounts throughout the day but no feeder seems to do smaller portions, and the floor space this one takes up is much smaller than other feeders that offer more daily feedings. Programming it is tedious, but not difficult and once it's set up you shouldn't have to do it again since there is a I've had this feeder now for a few weeks and it's worked as expected.

Overall very pleased with this feeder. … more

Worked for 6 months, and then it began to dispense food intermittently, and now it has stopped dispensing food at all. It still tells time and I can adjust the settings, it just doesn't want to release food anymore.

It works very well, according to my granddaughter to whom I gave it as a gift. The cats took to it after a few minutes of being leery of the noise of the food dropping. She works so she can control it from her phone.

I love that you can program portions at 4 separate feeding times. I like that you can record your voice if needed—cute feature! The tray is the widest I’ve seen on automatic feeders which is good for my cat because she’s a little chubbo and doesn’t like her whiskers to touch bowl edges. This normally makes her take a mouthful of food and drop it on the ground to eat. With the tray being wide and flattish, she no longer does this so there’s no leftover food bits on the floor anymore. My one recommendation that I think would elevate this product to god-tier would be if you could choose to manual feed a portion while having the feed times scheduled.

Right now if you have anything scheduled, you can push the button for a quick snack allotment. Overall 10/10 fo sho, would purchase again (but doubt I’d need to, the quality of materials and electrical components feels pretty high). … more

First time owner of an automatic feeder and it has been working great so far. I only wish the feeder could handle larger size food.

I bought it in September and now it doesn't work in December. the schedule is erased and the portions are smaller.
