Takes a bit of a learning curve to program but doable. Feeding "dumps" initially seemed to be inaccurate but now equal nearly what it is programmed for. The voice calling recording is a nice feature and while the noise of the feeder scares the cat a bit the call to dinner seems to work and overcome her fears. Solid and would be difficult if not impossible for our nightly raccoons to enter in or move it around. So far, only a week into it, it seems to be a good tool but we shall see how long a Chinese product will last.

For the most part, this works as advertised. The one problem I am having is that the food does not slide down into the bowl properly. Even after the machine vibrates, food is left at the top of the ramp and fools the machine into thinking the bowl is full and shuts off. It will start up again once the food has been eaten, but the noise scares my animals away.

Works great. You can leave a short audio message for your pet. The message plays right after the food is delivered. Can be programmed for up to four feedings. Instructions are clear for two or more feedings. You can do just one, instructions are not clear on that. You can also select feeding size in 1/4 cup increments up to two cups. It holds up to 45 cups. It vibrates after each drop to ensure all food drops and nothing sticks inside or out. Takes four C cell batteries, so the base is nicely weighted to prevent tipping. It is very stable. The top locks in place, so your pet can't knock the cover off. We bought it for when we travel. But it works so well we continue to use it when home.

Slightly time consuming to program but works great! Strong and heavy so dog won’t tip over. Lid even locks into place in case it does spill. You can record your voice to summon your pooch to meals. I programmed and tested it one week before needing to rely on it and it worked great! I was worried the dogs wouldn’t hear the voice recording so one dog would eat the others food, so I programmed a kitchen light to turn on moments before their feeding times as another prompt for them to recognize so they would both be there waiting for the feeder to dispense their meal. Not an issue with just one dog. The only downside for me is that the dispenser calibrations for food dispensed. Both my dogs are on a portion-controlled diet with twice each day feedings. I tested by dispensed a couple portions and measured them, then adjusted accordingly, but was still not convinced the portions were accurate. Because of this, I only use the dispenser when I am out of town. I wish I’d have bought this years ago rather than imposing on family to feed my dogs twice each day while I’m away. I already have a dog door so letting them in and out was never a problem, just feeding times. Well, not any longer! Have seen more expensive models but this one does the job more than sufficiently and if cost effective. Bought one to test and ordering another one for my second dog. Now I feel much more comfortable leaving for long day trips or longer.Read full review

So far so good , three weeks into this and its works. Dog is happy ,I'm happy. Programing is pretty well spelled out, I would recommend one person program and one reads the directions, much easier. To soon to give a five.
