We have gone through a lot of dog bowls. Plastic ones chewed, ceramic ones broken, metal ones that are noisy and smell bad. These bowls are great. Looked at at similar brand name bowls and the price is too hard to swallow for me, then I found these at 1/2 the price. They are smaller than their old bowls but I've found the dogs actually don't eat all of their food immediately in these bowls, I'm guessing they think it looks fuller so they are calm that there is plenty for later. Dogs love them, tSee full review
