PetSafe Healthy Pet Simply Feed

One of the simplest set up procedures for any "smart" device I've had, no subscription fees, well put together and smart design, a bit expensive but it's to help our pet lose weight so worth it!

I’m really happy with this automatic feeder. It arrived in good condition and was easy enough to set up. The feeder holds enough food so I don’t have to refill it every day. It seems reliable so far, no jams or missed meals. Cleaning is straightforward too, since the bowl and parts are dishwasher safe. Overall, it gives me peace of mind when I’m away, and my pet seems to like it as much as I do. Would recommend for anyone wanting a smart, dependable feeder.

So far so good. Was a little dubious about this due to some negative comments and the price, but... I read a review which commented about how some negatives were seemingly given due to not reading the instructions. Having the feeder now and got it set up, at the moment I am extremely pleased. The set up with the app is relatively easy. The app itself is very easy to use (if you read the page instructions which tell you what the icons mean) as well as being quite intuitive. Someone mentioned it takes a few feeds to start dishing out the food, but again there is on the app an initial 5/8 pre feed which sorts out the food in the conveyer so it is good to go straight after. I also have two cats, and bought the splitter. This is proving excellent and evenly sharing the portions of food. Assuming the feeder keeps up its good start I will up this to 5 stars

Used work well, app has now been updated and is utter useless. All features are broken, the scheduled feed I had programmed before the update works but can't do anything else. Feed now, broken. Schedule new feed, broken. Update a setting, nope.

This has been such a game changer for us a family. We have two cats and were forever having to ask neighbours to pop in over weekends when we were away to see family. This pet feeder has changed all that and means we can nip away for weekends safe in the knowledge that the cats will be fed at their normal meal times and we won't continue to take our neighbours helpfulness for granted. The feeder itself is about the size of two large cereal boxes put together and bowl is large enough for two cats to feed from at the same time. We use James Wellbeloved dry food in our feed and a full hopper lasted for about 2 weeks. You'll also need to purchase 4 D Cell batteries which the manufacturer states will last approximately 1 year of constant use. Setting up the feeder was rather simple, the instructions were clear and simple to follow. The only onerous task was to work out how much food to dispense at each meal time as different cat food weighs differently. I got round this my weighing a number of portions dispensed and then worked out from that how many portions required to feed our two cats at their meal times. (for us it was 4 portions per meal time). The slow feed option is really great, especially for our two cats as it means that the meal time is spread over 15mins so it gives ample time for both cats to eat the correct amount. Cleaning of the parts is easy enough and the lid has a decent lid so curious cats or dogs shouldn't be able to lift it off, also the machine is heavy enough not to be knocked over. This is a fantastic feeder that will pay for itself over and over again as we will not have to pay for expensive boarding for our cats when we are on holiday. On a side note look out for this on amazon warehouse deals, we managed to get ours, not in an original box mind, for 70GBP. A steal if you ask me.

I'm writing this two years after buying this automatic feeder. It's dead. It's been OK for us but it just hasn't been reliable enough and I wouldn't buy again, so went for a different (and much cheaper) option this time. +Positives: large capacity -Negatives: Very unreliable. If the wifi is down (or the machine disconnects from it), it doesn't work. It let us down several times over the years and setting it up from the app is quite fiddly. Plus every time it disconnects (which on bad days it could be multiple times), you have to reset the schedule. The mechanism is not well designed and kibble gets into it, which means it stops working. When that happens and you have to clean it. it's a complete faff as you can't clean it without emptying it Way too expensive for what it is and much better options out there.

We have used the feeder for 2.5 years. It's great in terms of programming the food and has helped our cat, who was obese, lose 4 kg safely and slowly. Unfortunately, we are now getting error messages frequently. We got them starting about a year ago (which meant the cat hadn't been fed, but we didn't realize it at first until he was totally freaking out). We opened up the container, vacuumed out the food dust, cleaned it as best we could, and were off again. It's now happening every 2-3 weeks. I'm relying on it to feed the cat and I don't have all day to keep trying to fix it. It worked FANTASTICALLY for the first 1.5 years, but now I need to get something new.

Già conoscevo il prodotto, in quanto già acquistato per sostituire un vecchio distributore della Trixie non più funzionante. Ne ho acquistato un secondo per sostituire anche l'altro distributore (ne ho 2 per 2 cani)

Acheté pour les vacances, le distributeur a parfaitement rempli sa mission. Même si je ne regrette pas mon achat, il y a tout de m^me deux points perfectibles à mon goût : - la gestion des doses ( programmation en ml et non en gramme - norme US ? - bref pas pratique...) j'ai du faire quelques petits essais avant de trouver le bon dosage.. - Le bruit lorsque la machine distribue les croquettes... la hauteur entre le distributeur et la gamelle fournie en inox est non négligeable; j'ai opté pour une gamelle en plastique Sinon l'appareil est top, facile à charger, le réservoir de croquette est grand. Facile à démonter pour le nettoyage occasionnel.

I read tons of reviews. But didnt want to buy 3 devices. Found a 3 way splitter (mentioned in other reviews). saved my sanity and made us get this auto dispenser. I'm due with my first in July. I cant free feed my cats because they will get fat (they never used to bother us for food when we free fed them-sigh). They have lost a combined 4 lbs since we started scheduling thier foods & are no longer obese!! But this scheduling came with them bombarding us in the am. Cant have that with the baby coming! So I took a chance on an open box like new with slight scratches. I'm very pleased to say even the open boxed device works! I got it a day or 2 before my splitter and adapter, so I used that time to clean and air dry. Install took maybe 12 minutes? Make sure all items/components are tight, secure, & dry! The programming was prob the most difficult, but its so worth it for the benefits! Now it find it fairly easy! It would be nice if the screen had a blue back light or something so it's easier to see. Think grey screen with black letters; that's what this display is like. When programmed and ready, it shows the buttons are locked and the next time for feeding! I've heard some say they had issues. I did buy the adapter separately. I've since had 2 power outages and all I have to do is set the time and then set to custom (vs the preprogrammed cat or dog) and it remembers the feeding schedule without me having to reschedule the feedings! Very thankful for that lil feature since power outages are very common in the summer here! You will have to force feedings a couple times because the conveyor doesnt have food on it! At first I was like wth! But after doing a couple force feedings, it worked perfectly. TIP: dont use slow feed unless you have larger portions. Since you can schedule up to 12 feedings with 1/8c as your lowest, I just do multiple 1/4c feedings. The smaller amounts just take way too long to dispense on slow feed! We use blue buffalo cat kibbles and have no issues with jamming. It took about 2 months for my cats to correlate the feeder with feeding rather than us making it magically happen. They have now completely stopped tormenting me in the mornings for food! I give them wet food at night so it's just for morning breakfast and afternoon snack! I will say we have messes because I cant secure the bowls and the cats drag the bowls, but honestly the cats love the hunt... they go nuts. Make sure to read the cleaning recommendations! Def dont want to ruin your new life saver! My cats are brutes! They even tried to bite the lid off. They haven't been able to open it no matter how hard they try. I do see that some say it could be tipped over. Ours is on the floor. They would have to use some serious skill to knock it over with full food for sure. Since I have the splitter, my cats cant stick their paws up for treats. The only negative I have is that now my cats associate the sound to cereal pouring into a bowl, and they run in all excited and confused lmao

Es muy práctico y de buena calidad, sólo me costó trabajo identificar el paso en donde se pone en línea el alimentador que fue muy sencillo solo apretando el botón del centro y el de la derecha al mismo tiempo pero en los vídeos que busqué no explican ese punto, y sin ese no entregaba la comida. Salvo ese detalle todo está excelente

+ einwandfreie und zuverlässige Funktion + Netz oder Batteriebetrieb möglich + großes Fassungsvermögen (1 Katze 2-4 Wochen) - kein Netzadapter im Lieferumfang Es gibt tatsächlilch keine vergleichbare Maschine die sowohl das Futter so sicher aufbewahrt und (vor allem) ausgibt und dann auch noch wahlweise mit Netzstecker betrieben werden kann. Leider ist der Adapter trotz des hohen Preises nicht dabei. Ich habe dafür einen 9V (statt 10V) Universal-Adapter genommen und das klappt prima. Passen tut auch der: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0083PAXC4/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_23?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A10M4JKGH5TIAB Nicht von dem in einer anderen Rezension hier geposteten Video erschrecken lassen: Der Kater kommt lediglich an ein paar Stücke die noch nicht runtergefallen sind und keinesfalls an den Vorrat der bei dieser Maschine wirklich gut gesichert ist. Die Menge die er mit der Pfote evtl. erwischt ist sehr begrenzt und kommt bei der nächsten Mahlzeit dafür weniger raus. :-) Es wird ein Gummi-Förderbad verwendet wobei eine Mulde des Förderbandes einer Portion entspricht. Natürlich kann die Portionsanzahl eingestellt werden. (Stufung der Menge daher etwas grob aber i.O.) Dieses Förderband macht ein Erreichen des Vorrates mit der Pfote wirklich unmöglich. Die vier megafetten D-Batterien (bei den meisten Geräten müssen solche verwendet werden) habe ich mir zur Sicherheit auch geleistet denn wenn der Netzstecker abgezogen wird geht die Maschine sofort in den Batteriebetrieb (und umgekehrt). Super bei Stromausfall. Auch eine Funktion die man ansonsten vergeblich sucht. Das Geräusch beim Runterfallen des Futters, das hier schon bemängelt worden ist, ist doch echt sowas von egal - da hört die Katze wenigstens von weitem wann es Mampfe gibt. (bei uns von Vorteil da das Gerät im Carport steht) Ich kann es wirklich voll empfehlen und hätte schweren Herzens einen Stern abziehen müssen weil das Ding so teuer ist - den Stern gibt es aber wieder drauf weil es echt das einzige Gerät ist, das es schafft so einwandfrei zu funktionieren und die Netzfunktion bietet. Denn ich hab keine Lust alle paar Wochen vier D-Batterien wegzuschmeißen und Neue zu kaufen. Der Preis ist wirklich enorm aber es gibt im Moment keine Alternative die diesem Gerät das Wasser reichen kann. Da bei mir der Ring für die Schale bei mir schon kapputt war, (gebrauchtes Gerät als neu verkauft - Wolffstore_GmbH - Teilbetrag erstattet) habe ich mir ein Brett mit Stoppern als Unterlage gemacht das die Schale am Gerät hält - das ging sehr einfach und ist bombensicher. Nach langer Suche habe ich dieses Gerät gekauft und bin sehr zufrieden damit. Ich habe mir viele Maschinen sehr genau angesehen. Alles andere was ich so gelesen habe scheint dagegen echter Schrott zu sein. Hierfür aber volle Empfehlung! Danke für's Lesen!
