PetSafe Smart Feed Automatic Feeder for Dogs and Cats, 2nd Generation with Alexa Voice Control

It works great! I am being allowed to sleep past 2am…the feeder wakes up instead! The “snack” option works great and I was actually able to give her a meal from 15 miles away!!!

My cats were waking me up just a half-hour too early. So why not get a robot to feed them? It have worked beautifully. Firstly, my cats are satisfied with their robot servant. Secondly, I did not realize that I was in this unhealthy relationship with them about food - waiting on food, need food, make food, shuffle and tidy up food and just come in the kitchen and do something for me concerning food. Now the robot feeds them, in nice portions throughout the day and in a measured amount that corresponds to the recommendation on the royal canin bag. Happy cats, happy cat-daddy, we play, snuggle enjoy and respect each other more because food has been removed from the equation. Hooray! two opportunities for improvement: the Alexa command is too long and cumbersome, can't it be customized "Feed Bugsy!". Rather than just have a feed a between meals snack option, have a feed the next meal early option - so as to maintain total diet amount correctly and not add to it.

Only had this a few weeks but so far, very impressed. We are away often so it has made it very convenient to feed the dog when we can't. Capacity appears to be big enough that we can be gone for at least a week. The like the option to feed on schedule or demand as well

Once wifi was connected, set up was easy. Feeder holds about a week's worth of food. I can feed on the spot or scheduled, which is very convenient. If I'm running late from work, I can feed my Labrador from my phone on my way home. He obviously loves it!

Top 10 Most Important Household Appliances! Our first smart feeder just passed away after 8 years. This has been so reliable and helpful for our family and pet. We replaced it this week and the newer model was quicker to setup on WiFi and it is much quieter when the food lands in the bowl. We could not imagine owning a pet without this feeder.

As a two cat household, I was having trouble with one of my little gremlins scarfing down his food and then growling at his sister, scaring her away, and finishing off her bowl. This automatic feeder (plus the bowl splitter) has seemingly solved the problem! By dispensing small (1/8 cup) meals, multiple times a day, both my cats finish off their meals around the same time so one can't bully away the other. Not to mention that it creates a more regular meal schedule so they never have to feel anxious that food hasn't come when they were expecting it. This feeder has given me peace of mind that both my cats are receiving the right amount of food every day and has given my cats a regular feeding schedule -- even if I work late or go out of town overnight. Really happy with this purchase and the PetSafe app!

I love this product, with having 3 cats that eat at all different times I feel like I am constantly refilling the cat dish. This may be priced a slightly bit high for my normal spending but the convenience and being able to use the app to feed whenever and where ever I may be is priceless. If a person can afford it particularly someone with multiple cats it is a good investment.

This feeder has been a lifesaver. Our dog, Jaxon, frequently vomited from eating too quickly. We would give him small scoops at a time, but it was time-consuming. Our feeder arrived quickly and required very little assembly. It linked to my phone quickly. Figuring out the app took only a few minutes, and we were able to use it right away. Now, we don't have to worry - the good is doled out in small portions at feeding time with no worries! Jaxon hasn't been sick since!

Easy to set up and to connect to wifi and to the android app. Creating a schedule and updating a schedule for feeding is pretty intuitive. I would give this product a 4.5 out of 5. The food sensor is a bit off as it cites out of food when there is still food left in the bin.

Have used this feeder in the past with no problems. However, this new one will not connect to our home network. Worked with customer support from PetSafe. They could not get it to connect either. They shipped a replacement but it will not connect either.
