 Favorite Doggy Water Bowl... May 25, 2008
We started with one...got a second one and this is the third...for whatever reason our dogs like drinking out of this style dog water bowl best, and we like it becase it doesn't spill! Works great in a moving vehicle and holds alot of water for in the home. One thing - make sure that you SECURELY screw the top in, because if it is not done very tightly, it will leak. Other than that, it is wonderful and works better than any bowl we have tried!
Good for all size dogs May 1, 2008
I love this product. Not only is it great for travel without spills, both my 40 lb. dog and my 80 lb. dog prefer it to larger water pans. The water seems to stay fresher. I bought a second one so I can have one in the house and one in the car.
Great Product March 23, 2008
This water bowl is amazing. Our puppy was flipping every other bowl we tried. It's great in a crate, on the floor and even for traveling...if you have a dog, get one of these.
 Travel water bowl best suited to smaller breeds May 7, 2007

I gave this a two star rating based on the fact that mine was to be used for a larger dog. This product would be adequate for a small dog. But the opening for a dog with a larger muzzle is not large enough. The claims for not spilling water seem to be true. However, since only about an inch of water is in the bottom of the opening at any time, it's more difficult for a larger dog to get his nose in and get a good drink. I guess if the dog were extremely thirsty and had no other water supply, this could do in a pinch.
 Great product but needs better quality control--check for loose O-ring April 23, 2007

I now own 3 Lixit Waterboys. The first two work as advertised, almost like magic. No splashes, no spills, even in a joltin' Jeep Wrangler. I use the second one upstairs as a "carpet-friendly" water bowl so that my aging mutt doesn't have to navigate the stairs just to have a drink.
Today I bought a third one for the RV. The third one doesn't work at all. It leaks, splashes, and spills like crazy. It's just as bad a standard dog bowl. As near as I can tell, the problem is that the O-ring between the "jug" and the "cup" is loose / too large and isn't providing the seal needed for the no-splash mojo. I'll be returning it tomorrow. The two that work both have a snug O-ring, so I now know to look for that when buying a Waterboy.
I'm surprised that Lixit doesn't have better quality control for this clever product, given the well-deserved positive reputation of the Lixit faucet dog waterer. Especially considering that it's $10 - $15 for a plastic jug, cup, and O-ring.
It is far too easy to cross-thread the cup on the jug, which could also lead to the Waterboy not working correctly; I have always been careful to avoid cross-threading the cup, but it requires full attention to avoid it.
