Review on PAWISE Automatic Pet Feeder With Timer For Cats And Dogs - 1 Meal Auto Dog Dry Food Dispenser by Aaron Guy

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Affordable and gets the job done

It's affordable(did not want to spend $70-100 for my dog's food bowl), and it works! I typically set the dial timer to 6 hours before leaving for work so that my dog can eat around 1PM. As I see the footage from my home monitoring camera, it seems to work every time. This is important for me as my dog sometimes throws up if he doesn't get fed for 6-9 hours depending on his condition. I feed my 55lb dog about 1-1.5 cups for each meal, which is about the max capacity for this container. I assume that if your dog eats more food, you may need a bigger container. Personally, I don't need to set the timer beyond 12, 24. 48 hours. so it's not necessary for me to have that much range. I'd rather have up to 12-18 hours or so and have more detailed control(which this one lacks if you want precise control like 5 hours, 7, etc). Lastly, this bowl seems to always make ticking noise like a loud clock even when it is not in use. It would be good for it to have a on/off switch. When it opens, as it releases the spring, it does make a loud noise. In a way, it's good as it alerts my dog to pay attention immediately and eat it at the precise moment! I recommend this product without hesitation.

Pros
  • Reduces mess by eliminating the need for multiple bowls and containers
Cons
  • May cause the pet to overeat
