Dogit Design Alfresco Outdoor Drinking Plastic Fountain, 338-oz

I have had this fountain for a year. The thing that sold me on it was the size and price. It was on sale for only 60 dollars. I can honestly say it's an okay fountain, the reason being is at first when I bought it I was saddened to see that the pump didn't even reach the bottom of the bowl. Meaning that yeah it holds so much but once it is only about 1/3 full it stops pumping water...... Also now that time had passed and I can see how well it fairs. I can definitely say unless it's just temporary. I would not buy this bowl again. It has a fancy light feature that was cool at first, but as time goes on it actually started to rust. This is not acceptable to me. I should never have to worry about I have had this fountain for a year. The thing that sold me on it was the size and price. It was on sale for only 60 dollars.

Leaving black specs here and there. So in my opinion if your picky about how clean your dogs water is. Which I can only assume you are since your looking at filter bowls, move on. The only plus was the size and even then it disappointed me with it's inability to pump water from the bottom upward. There are better filter bowls out there. Don't waste your money. … more

My dog Willow LOVES this fountain. She’s a Great Pyrenees so she drinks a lot and slobbers into her water a LOT. I ended up getting this fountain to filter that slobber out and have enough water for her so I don’t have to replace it every hour. It’s amazing! It worked great until the pump went out, but I contacted Chewy when it did and they’re sending me a new one! Chewy has AMAZING customer service! This is a great fountain and I’d recommend it for anyone who has big dogs especially.

I bought this probably over a year ago and it’s since become more of a decoration. It’s beautiful and with the light it’s even more pretty at night. However the quality on the outside doesn’t reflect the quality on the inside. The first few washes got most of the clumps of glue out and most of the black flakes that would come off. It’s kind of a rough material so it’s difficult to get clean. The filter only really stops fur so it gets really slimy really quick. I was washing it every couple of hours when I was using it. The pump hangs about half way down so you can’t use all of the water and have to keep it pretty full so you don’t mess up the pump. My German Shepard wouldn’t even use it because I bought this probably over a year ago and it’s since become more of a decoration. It’s beautiful and with the light it’s even more pretty at night.

For how expensive it was it was really more of a hassle to deal with. If you do get one please be mindful of the flakes and debris that come out and wash it well first … more

Bought 2 of these a couple years ago for 1/3 of the price. Black flaking inside never stops. Can only use half the water inside because pump only hangs halfway down. I love Chewy, just not this product.

Looked beautiful in picture, very zen vs having eyesore bowls laying around, but upon unboxing was immediately disappointed in the craftsmanship. Globs of glue/caulk held the super short hose in permanent place in the output hole. it looked like a toddler painted it, all streaky in places with clumps of too much in others, and "out of the lines" all over the place. The chemical smell was overpowering and nauseating. The hose is very short, as mentioned, but connects to the pump and holds it suspended in the basin; causing a good amount of water to be left in the bottom, which defeats the entire purpose of having the large capacity basin.

All things that I was ok with looking past since, otherwise, it essentially should've been perfect for our needs. Used it for less than 2 months and the pets stopped using it, and I'm talking to the point they would rather thirst to death than drink from it, because it would become super slimy and apparently the coating was coming off and little black flakes were floating around in it. These pictures are from not even a week after cleaning and refilling it the time before that, and after the third time over during this cleaning because the slimyness and floating black debris was so bad and just never ending. So disappointed with this. … more

Pretty water fountain while it worked but that has only been a month and it is barely running

Love this fountain. Not only is it beautiful and the light at night is wonderful, my dogs LOVE drinking out of it. They tend to prefer "fresh" water and so are choosing to drink from this as opposed to their old style water bowl. I also want to include that I appreciate the height as well. My big guys finally have a fresh, running water bowl that is at their appropriate height and no longer have to bend their necks to reach the ground. I would purchase multiple ones if I had more rooms to put them in!

We keep this inside and it dresses up an otherwise unsightly water bowl. Looks ing a water fountain!

I had seen this item before but didn't purchase it from another provider. So finally decided this would help with our summer algi growing situation, so I sought it out and found CHEWY to have it and at a better price than before. However, our dog is a little affair of it and I cannot seem to get him to use it. I have left it out there hoping he would get use to it and use it, but he has not. The goal of no algi growing seems to be achieved since the water supply is in the black base and little to no sunlight can get to it. So a plus there. Didn't return it as I will keep for future dogs and will start them out early on it. Liked that CHEWY had replacement filter available on auto ship.

It’s okay but they need to have this 3D printed because the quality and fiber glass interior structure of it is worrisome. I love the light and idea but needs to improved.
