PetSafe Healthy Pet Water Filter, 2 pack

I definitely appreciate that this company aims to provide safe water to animals, however, I think this could be achieved in different ways. I have a water filter at home, which I can easily use to fill up my kittens' bowl. However, this was advertised with the large gravity-refill water dish I purchased. My main issue is that my kittens often get their water bowl dirty, which makes this product essentially useless in the long run. Luckily, this filter doesn't make much sound while filtering so it doesn't deter my cats from drinking their water.

I’ve been using these for over a year now I think and I’m not sure how people are having issues with residue. I soak it shake it and rinse it and haven’t ever had any problems I have water bowls for my dogs and cats and they all drink so much more water since using the filters

Bought this to use with the self water dish and this caused the water dish to airlock and not let the water fill the bowl. I would not recommend this to anyone!!!

Even after rinsing for more than five minutes, the filters STILL had black residue coming out. So much so, that when I put it in a glass of water, black particles began floating in the water. I was not comfortable putting the filter in my cat’s water for this reason.

I saw that these came FILTHY with black carbon and immediately got concerned. I saw you were supposed to rinse them in cold water for 1-2 minutes and shake them to remove this. HA. I washed it for 5 or so minutes, even rinsing water down the sides and all around. All it did was make it worse. I kept rinsing and rinsing and it never came clean and kept FLOODING with black. Eventually I just wiped as much as I could off with a paper towel and thought "okay, maybe this stuff wont actually feed into the water cuz it's on the outside and the water has to filter through the inside first and will catch it and stop it" NOPE. The bowl immediately had SO MUCH gunk in it and the filter itself was covered I saw that these came FILTHY with black carbon and immediately got concerned.

We'll just keep buying jugs of water I guess, because this made the water AWFUL. I bought 2 boxes so I'd be stocked up for a while. All 4 filters had this problem. … more

everything has been great so far with these filters. Very easy to set up, to install, and it works perfectly so far. Did not have any of the black dust issue that others have complained about. The only thing keeping this from five stars is because I've only been using it for a couple of weeks and want to make sure the excellent performance is maintained.

I really like these filters. I read some reviews before buying. Some people were complaining about having some black oily stuff floating around in the water. You have to rinse the filter in the sink for like 2 minutes. It has carbon on it and when you rinse it you'll get all that off. Black stuff came off of mine at first. I just rinsed it for two to three minutes and have had no issue. Also some people were complaining about it getting stuck and having to bang on the top of the waterer to get it to flow with water again. I have not had this issue either. The waterer has worked great from the get go and the filter has been fine too. I defaintly recommend this product to anyone.

Another great way to make sure my cat gets enough water.

After multiple tries and assemblies, it will fill the water bowl once then once he finishes what’s in there, does not get refilled and I have to shake it to get it to release more water everytime. I took the plug out as directed just will not work.

Easy to install, easy to use. I’m told that I must whitter along for more characters, even though, I’ve already said what is important,. Done.
