Petmate Pearl Replendish Waterer with Microban

I've had a small version of this same waterer for my cats for several years and love it. I was so happy to find Chewy had the large one for dogs. A full jug dispenses fresh water to my two 55 lb dogs for almost a week, instead of me having to fill 2 water bowls several times per day. They both took right to it. It is comforting to know my pets always have fresh water, even when I'm not there. I don't understand the negative reviews because this is a functional, quality product. You should rinse the filter the first time before using it. The water dispenses slowly, but be patient and the bowl will fill to at least 3/4 of the way, which I think is perfect.

If you put the cap on properly and remember to twist the bowl onto the jug, it does not leak. My 2 girls have been using this for 3 weeks and we have had none of the issues others complain of. … more

I’m not sure if mine is defective or if this is an issue with the design but this thing does not dispense water regularly. About 70% of the time I go check it and the bowl is empty but the tank is full. I have to hit it and tilt it to get the water to start dispensing. It really defeats the purpose of buying this kind of water “dispenser” when it doesn’t dispense water most of the time.

I'm so disappointed i had one of these i used for years but it finally broke so we got this and now my dogs are back to drinking out of the toilet! Its extremely difficult to get in or out of place just right and when you manage to get it screwed on it just tinkles out about 1/4th of an inch of water and I have Standard poodles they drink a lot of water! Awful waste of money!

I actually got 2 of these. The largest for our dog, and a smaller one for our cats. We've had them about a week and they've been great. The larger one does get pretty heavy when filled, but it was still easy to carry and flip onto the bowl. I also love that the reservoir screws on. We had a different waterer for a cats a while back but they kept knocking off the reservoir and making a mess. No issues like that with these.

We used this bowl for just under a year when it developed a leak at the fusion in the plastic base. Otherwise we really liked the item. I’m torn on what replacement to order that will be more durable. We use it for our rabbit and it’s a nice size for him.

For whatever reason, the 2.5 gallon size does not dispense water. At least it didn't for me. The jug was completely full, and the bowl was dry. When I did get it to flow out by tipping it back a little, only about 1/4" of water was in the bottom of the bowl. I've had this brand before, but it was the largest version. When I informed Chewy of the issue, they sent me the largest one and that one works perfectly!

I wouldn't even give it one star. My dog has started drinking out of the toilet because this replendish water bowl does not work. The most that comes into the bowl is about 1/4 of an inch. I tried taking out the filter but that did not improve the water flow. Do not waste your money. Maybe the smaller version works but they should take the larger capacity bowl off this site.

I did not realize how much 4 gallons was! It's great, it doesn't get dirty like the water bowl did, we clean it between refills (2 weeks with one dog, but we brought a new one home and they're both going through it in a week!) It's great!

We are very disappointed in this product. Hard to remove the top portion from the bottom. The rim around the top cracked and broke off causing 5 gals of water to leak out over night all over our floor.

We have the smaller one and it’s worked very well for our indoor outdoor kitty. We’ve had it for 6 months and have had no issues. Really love it and it’s much easier to handle than the large one we used to use.
