 Science Fair project gone right. October 7, 2008
I've had a great experience with Petmate products in the past, and this feeder is no exception. I had this thing out of the packaging, display-locked, battery-loaded, and programmed within 15 minutes.
My only complaint is that the construction feels a bit unsteady. The "blades" of the mill mechanism are made of a stiff rubber that feels prone to crumbling, the bowl does not detach for cleaning, and the storage cylinder on top merely rests atop the main body of the device. The whole thing feels like a Science Fair project adapted for sale on QVC.
But it feeds my cat. Twice a day. Every day. Which means that I get woken up by *WHIRRRRRRRR CLACK CLACK CLACK* instead of cat tongue in my armpit. A fair trade for $50.
 Great Idea for frequent absentee pet owners... October 6, 2008
This has to be the best idea for frequent absentee cat owners. It was easy to set up and put in place. I love this product... would definitely purchase it again.
Takes a licking and keeps on ticking October 6, 2008
I purchased this for my always hungry fat cat in hopes to get her to stop constantly begging. So far this product has been great. She has realized that the mysterious black machine is responsible for her food, and not me! I occasionally find her sitting in front of the feeder just staring and waiting. and if she's in another part of the house and hears it dispense a meal she comes RUNNING.
When we first set the feeder up she could see and smell the food and thought she could break in and help herself. She has tried everything from scratching, to knawing, to tipping the feeder over and has failed to get it open. She has finally given up trying to outsmart the machine.
Score ONE for me - ZERO for my fat little baby!
Excellent! October 6, 2008
This feeder [ASIN:B000BVWVUA Petmate Electronic Portion Control Le Bistro Feeder 5 pound - Black] programs precisely by hours, minutes and seconds. Unit performs reliably and precisely. This unit is great for pets that need metered feeding.
 Le Piece OCrapO October 5, 2008
I've read it out there from other people as well but SERIOUSLY this thing is a piece of JUNK!!! It will probably kill your pet if you rely on it feeding your pet. I've had two units the first one I got an exchange from the place I bought it because it didn't work as set it had a mind of it's own. The second one worked just outside the exchange date and now the internal memory is so secrewed up I can't even set it. I'm single and wanted to rely on using it for my cat if I wasn't home yet but NO WAY, it will count a feeding yet not disperse any food even at times. This things a cruel attempt at cheap manufacturing!! I hope the manufacturers get what they deserve for making this piece of junk and somebody sues there butts off!!! MFk#$%^**!!!!
