Small Elevated Pet Feeder

UPDATED REVIEW:I originally received an earlier edition of this product, in which there were only 1.5 cup bowls. As my dog is a grazer and we put 2 cups of food in his food bowl, I was disappointed by what I felt was a misleading product description.I contacted Pawfect Pets, who were lovely and responsive. They explained the understandable issue of me receiving an earlier edition of the product, and sent two 2.5 cup bowls to me via priority shipping.The elevated pet feeder is now set up in my kitchen and both my dog and I my love it! It is aesthetically pleasing to the eye without being flashy; the bamboo structure is well constructed and sturdy. I originally looked at the metal frame feeders, but am very happy that I went with this feeder due to both look and spill-protection. My dog is a somewhat messy drinker (I had no idea the extent of this until there is no longer water all around his bowl) and the feeder's rim around the bowl has stopped the water from getting on the floor. I highly recommend this product.ORIGINAL REVIEW: [I apologize for it being a little rant-y]After looking at many different elevated water bowls for my dogs, the deciding factor for me choosing this elevated dog feeder was that despite being relatively small and inconspicuous, it came with bowls 2.5" deep. ("The four included bowls hold 1.5 cups and 2.5 cups which measure 1.5” and 2.5" deep respectively. Bowls can be interchanged for ones of your choosing as long as the inside diameter is 5.25" or less.") However, all 4 bowls I received were the same size. Yes, I could buy two additional dog bowls, but at that point the product would no longer be cost efficient.The part of me that is annoyed at the misinformation, especially given that the stated depth was one of the deciding factors for me choosing this dog bowl feeding over others, wants to give this product 1 star.I ultimately gave this product 2 stars in the interest of fairness. The elevated feeder itself is not tacky at all (versus some other elevated feeders online) and appears to be well-made. I cannot speak to the quality of the feeder over time, but if I did not need deeper bowls I would keep it.

This has been great for our cats. We wanted to find something that our roomba wouldn’t push around and splash water on the floor. It’s worked great. Maybe it nudges it a bit? But we keep up against the wall and now have no food or water on the floor. Plant looks great with our flooring which is about the same color. Very happy with it so far. We’ll see how it handles a bit of water on it from my kids filling up the water. But so far, so good!

I purchased this for my sister's household. They have a senior-aged kitty who was frequently vomiting despite having no illness. I am hoping these elevated food and water bowls will alleviate the old girl's tummy trouble! This feeder's design is simple yet modern, quite aesthetically pleasing and complementary to my sister's home decor. My sister prefers stainless steel bowls over ceramic, so she was quite excited to see both a set of shallow bowls and deep bowls included in the box. I compared this feeder to a competitor's model that features tilted stainless steel bowls and swiftly realized their disadvantage: those tilted bowls have to be locked in or screwed in to a base or else they shift around or dislodge completely when the animal eats. This feeder doesn't require two hands or any special movements to place or remove the bowls. To remove a bowl, you can pop a fingernail underneath the rim of the bowl, or alternately you can push a bowl up through the hole in the feeder by lifting up the bowl's bottom with your hand. I'm always looking for ways to make everyday tasks as quick and easy as possible, and this feeder couldn't make it any easier to place or remove the bowls. I'm curious to see how the wood stain handles weeks and months of use, especially given that bits of food and rogue drops of water aren't always going to be immediately wiped away. Previous reviews indicate that the manufacturer had updated or adjusted the stain to reduce or prevent mold accumulation, although I would still think any wood or wood-like surface should be kept as clean and dry as possible. The feeder is equipped with large screwed-in rubberized feet that hold the unit very steady on a hard floor. Each bowl hole has several pre-installed low-profile bumpers that eliminate any movement of the bowl while kitty is chowing down, but extra bumpers came included on a little card, which is quite nice! Even though she's only a few days into this new elevated bowl experiment, sister's kitty seems to like, and even enjoy, her new feeder. Kitty doesn't have to lower her head below shoulder height when she eats or drinks, and that's exactly what I wanted for her when I chose this particular feeder.

I'm extremely fond of this product. I think it looks very nice aesthetically while also serving its purpose. I was really pleased that this product came with a set of replacement bowls,so I can pop two in the dishwasher and have two in use. One thing I have a small issue with, is there's no easy way to 'drop' the bowls into the holder when they're full. You either have to pour water directly into the bowl or risk spilling some as you settle the bowl into the hole. On the bright side though, the wood has been holding up great to not only my spills but to any mess my cat makes. I haven't seen any sign of damage or warping due to contact with water. I'd definitely purchase another when we get a second pet.

These are perfect n exactly what I needed for 6 cats ... Who play with the dry food n put so much under stove I had a weevil infestation. .. this solves the problem n we'll never have weevils again!!!! Ugh

Perfect height for the small dog. It’s clean and attractive. Comes with two feeding bowls, and one deep water bowl. Really dig this product from my dog.

Deep stainless steel bowls inside the wooden stand, does its job.
