Petmate Pearl Replendish Feeder With Microban

I just got it, and put it in the dishwasher to wash before I used it. The instructions said to rinse before using, but did not warn that it was not dishwasher save. The reservoir melted. I don't see anywhere where I can order just a replacement reservoir, so I guess this is going in the trash. I don't prefer a dish that I can't sterilize occasionally in the dishwasher, so I'm not going to buy another one just to see if it works out otherwise.

I should have paid attention to the reviews. I bought this to replace an older gravity feeder. We need this to feed our cat when we are on a 2 week vacation. Fortunately, we tried it before we left, or the cat would have starved! This is TERRIBLE! The food only falls into the bowl if you jiggle the contraption. This IS NOT gravity! Now I need to figure out how or if it is worth returning!

We literally bought this to make feeding her easier have to constantly refill a small bowl is annoying and we like giving her the freedom to eat when she wants rather than waiting on us to feed her during the day or while we’re away. This holds an enormous amount of food 18lbs to be exact the top pops off so there’s no needing to unscrew the basin from the actual bowl unless you need to clean it this is the best gravity feeder we’ve ever gotten her

I can picture this feeder working when a dog sticks his snout in the bowl to eat, but when my cats ate near the edge, it did not allow the food to be dispensed, since there was no movement from them. I needed to tap the side occasionally for the food to move down, which defeated the whole purpose. But, if you have a dog, I think it would work great.

The size of the feeder is perfect for vacations and overall feeding, however the feeder has to be shaken for the food to fall. My cat's food morsels are small, if they were larger there would be a greater chance to get caught up in the dispenser.

I love this product, it's prefect for a small dog or cat. I have 3 digs and thought I ordered a large size. But I love filling the food from the top. It's way easier and cleaner.

Bought this for the cats so they could be on their own a couple days with food from the feeder, but the food does not come out without tilting the container. Good thing I tried it out first.

Excellent product. The feeder does exactly what you need it to do. I will be going on vacation worry free knowing that my Sunshine is well feed and hydrated.

Item is as described and would work well for large dog but when using large chunk dog food for a large breed dog the food does not automatically slide/come out of the feeder into the dish. You have to shake it or use your hand to force the food out of the storage container into the bowl. Therefore, it doesn’t work as intended.

Could dispense more quickly, but I trust in an emergency if I had to go away, my kitties would get their food. Peacock blue is very pretty. Product seems sturdy.
