PETLIBRO Automatic Cat Feeder Wet Food Dispenser Refrigerated APP WiFi Control,3 Days True Freshness 3 Meals,Semiconductor Cooling&Quick Chills Gravy Wet Food Polar Timed Auto Pet Feeder for Cat Dog

I was researching a refrigerated we food automatic feeder last month. I was getting a new cat and this product was only out for a week or so. I didn't buy one as all I could find was the ice pack ones and this but this item had mixed reviews. Everyone said the product was good but the app was lacking so I held off. A week ago I got my cat and again found myself on amazon looking for a solution for when I am out of the house overnight. I have family that can stop in but I really wanted to make sure my cat got fresh wet food everyday even if they were stuck and this does that for up to 3 feedings. He gets we food once a day so this would cover us for 3 days. I use it along with the Petlibro Air feeder for dry food.There is a 30. minute preparation time to get it to temperature that is more appealing to eat. This product keeps the food fresh and when it is time to serve it is just chilled, not cold. My cat doesn't seem to mind and in fact, seems to prefer how this food is served to warm wet food. It has opened every time on schedule and the food was at the right temp.The app was updated 2 days before I purchased mine so I can only speak to the recent app release. It is easy to program but one thing I noticed is the feature to label a meal wasn't clear at first. For me, the compartment that I put to be served first was not as when it activated at feeding time it rotated the tray but the app didn't reflect that. After the first time and realizing it I can adjust how I label food in the app, I figured it out quickly. It matters because I'm trying to figure out what food my cat likes. Each compartment had a different flavor that looks similar. It's hard to tell just looking at what is left over in the tray which flavor it is. Keeping track of which compartment was fed first was easy to figure out after the first day.The recent update allows for a feeding time of up to 4 hours. This is nice because it took him a little while to figure out that it wasn't available all day and now he eats it all within 2 hours so I've adjusted how long it stays open. It also has a sensor to show you on the app how many times your cat went to the feeder and for how long. that gave me an idea of when he was eating the bulk of the food so I could adjust when to set it to close to train him to eat it earlier in the feeding schedule. Even if you leave it for 4 hours, I have felt the food and it is still cool so I feel ok about it being open that long.One thing the app doesn't have for me but is supposed to is a feed now option. It is supposed to let you open it at any time, even during the 30 min preparation prior to feeding time. It takes 30 min to adjust to feeding temp but it would be nice to open it at anytime. As it stands, I have to schedule a feed 30 min from that moment if I need to feed him off schedule, not a deal breaker but hopefully with the next update that will show up for me.I took away one star simply for the app quirks but as far as reliability and function this product delivers. Definitely worth the investment for the convenience of keeping my cat on schedule.Update:I've had this for one year now. The app no longer has issues and it works reliably even when the power goes out. Also, you can now open it anytime with the app update. Could not be happier with this product. Added back the one star for improvements.

I frequently go on weekend trips and needed a reliable solution to feed my cat while I'm away. Friends and family have helped in the past, but that's not always feasible. After extensive research on wet food feeders, I found that keeping the food chilled is essential to prevent spoilage. Most options on Amazon use cold packs that only last a day or so. Then I came across this feeder, and despite the mixed reviews, I decided to give it a try.I’m two weeks into using it, and so far, it’s been working great. It feeds on time and keeps the wet food properly chilled. Cleaning the base and feeding dish is straightforward and easy. With an upcoming trip, I'm excited to rely on this feeder.However, there are a few cons. I was surprised that there are no accessory options, like a stainless steel or porcelain feeding dish. Many pet owners prefer not to use plastic. Additionally, the feeder lacks an audio recording feature for feeding times, which even the cheapest dispensers on Amazon have. My cat doesn't respond to the "ding ding" sound and hasn't yet associated it with mealtime. I have to show him that the feeder is open and he can eat.The scheduling feature seemed a bit complicated initially, and the repeat feeding option didn’t work for me. The app isn’t terrible but could use some improvements, such as the ability to view the current temperature, since the unit does have a temperature sensor.Overall, if you're looking for a way to feed your pet wet food while you're away, this is a good option and likely the best currently on the market.I hope the company listens to customer suggestions and updates their app, as well as providing additional accessories for this product.

Tried this for one month and returned it.- Trays rotating out of order or into empty trays. I had to get a camera specifically to manually rotate the trays from the app to the one that has food. This defeats the purpose of the automatic feature.- Too tall for my cat. My cat has a squishy face so she has to dip her head really deep into the tray.- Tray opening is not wide enough to prevent whisker fatigue.- Bell chime is really quiet so my cat can’t hear it on the first ring. I had to manually ring the bell multiple times via the app for her to come and eat. Again, not making this device automatic.- Food stays too cold. It took me a month to train her to eat from this without supervision and in the end, she walks away from it because the food is too cold for her. I also believe this is why the tray is plastic instead of stainless steel. The stainless steel cooling panel underneath the tray accumulates ice so if the trays were also the same material, it would freeze the food.This feeder works for households with a cat that can tolerate cold food, can eat everything at once on schedule, doesn’t need medication, and is in relatively healthy condition. However, it's not very reliable and I wouldn't trust this device without keeping and eye on it.This is an innovative product but it just doesn’t work for me or my cat. We both don’t have the energy to stick around any longer to be guinea pigs. I’ll consider buying an upgraded version that has SMARTER capabilities with COOLING and HEATING functions from PETLIBRO in the future.
