IMIPAW Automatic Cat Feeders, 3L Timed Cat Dry Food Dispenser with Desiccant Bags, Dual Power Supply, Programmable Portion Size, 6 Meals, 20 Portions Per Day, Auto Pet Feeder for Cats and Small Dogs

Ordered last minute for out of town trip to have something to feed cat. Pretty easy setup and straight-forward design. It has quite few options to set up feeding options throughout the day to the point of "how many times to people need to feed a cat/dog?" Ha ha. I only needed two options, morning/night, and it was easy to configure. Food dispenser worked fine - only caveat, the food portion settings need some trial/error. I discovered that I needed to add 2 additional "portions" to equal the cup size I needed. Once figured out, the dispenser worked perfectly.

I've tried several different automatic feeders, and I like this one the best. It's reasonably priced, stops little paws from accessing food when they're not supposed to, and doesn't require internet access or an app to use. The programming wasn't too difficult to figure out, either, and I managed it in less than half an hour (start to finish). There's so many settings to play around with and find the best schedule/amounts of food for your cat, which is incredible when you're managing four goblins with wildly different eating preferences and times. I plug it directly into the wall, so I can't judge battery efficiency, but I do like that the option is there. Additionally, the food tray was easy to remove and clean without coming off accidentally. Would absolutely purchase again in the future!

works amazing, easy to set up has a good amount of time slots. The food is set right on time that you set up and love that you can select the amount of food to dispense. intakes a good amount of food no need to be refilling every day. works perfect when we are not home, she still gets her feedings in time!

I like the locking feature for the food container so my cats can't open it on accident and eat all the food. Don't like that it is lighter and can be easily knocked over. There isn't an easy way to dispense food when you want an one off feeding, but it is pretty easy to set up schedule feedings.

The product arrived as described and works well. It has an option to plug into the wall or can run on battery. Pro's: It comes with a quick program card that helps you set up the number of meals per day, time, and portion size (amounts explained on the back of the quick set up card). Cons: it is loud when it drops food into the dish so consider feeder placement if your a light sleeper.

This feeder is great for the price! Have had it since November and it works great, you can set the portions to your desired amount. And add many different feeding times! The tray removes easily for cleaning as well. I will say the only con is it does not alert you when the food is low.

Great feeder for my cat. Portion guide is very helpful and it’s very easy to set up. Also, the food comes out very quietly. Great addition to my other feeder.

Nice unit. Note that it has optional battery power with D cells (not included) so kitty doesn’t starve if the power goes out

Fabulous time saver. Does exactly what is needed. Programmed numerous meals of varying sizes and it switched to battery backup when the power was out. Wish I had one sooner! Couldn't be more pleased.

Super purchase for the price! My cat was very sus of it in the beginning and now he treats it like it’s his mother! Very efficient that it runs on battery as well as cord! I use the battery for it and it has been working great. It is very sturdy and safe. U can set up upto 5 meals and 3 servings per meal. Initially setup takes a bit of playing around but the instruction card is very helpful! Very happy with the purchase.

This product has been working consistently for a few months. I am using it plugged in (with battery backup). It also worked consistently with the battery (no issues with short-changing the cats on food). I think it uses a proper mechanical dispensing system, not one that relies on a rubber band, so dispensing seems to be quick and consistent. In the digital age, it would be lovely if there was a low level warning. The only think I don't really like is the very loud beep with every push of the buttons to adjust clock, time, meal sizes, etc. Otherwise it is easy to use. The instructions that came with it were helpful. The best benefits: the cats don't wake me up early anymore (unless I let it run out of food). I am using one feeder for three cats. It holds food for more than one week but I now make a habit of filling it weekly. When I am on holidays, this gives my cat sitter more flexibility on when she comes to check on the cats. Side note on battery only: years ago I used an automatic cat feeder that ONLY had a battery option and found it ran perfectly for months at a time before needing to change batteries, so I expect the same for this one.

Works very well cats love it. Easy to use and very durable - our cats have knocked it off the shelf a few times, lid only came off once and the machine still works perfectly. Highly recommend

Item came defective and I'm not able to return it. I set the feeding times and no food is dispensed. I've unplugged it, still doesn't work. The manual button also wasn't working. After unplugging it multiple times, the manual button will keep dispensing food until I have to shut it off. I wouldn't have left a review at all, except I don't think I should have to keep a defective product.
