Amazon Basics Gravity Pet Water Dispenser for Cat and Dog, Easy to Clean, 135.3fl.oz Capacity, Small

I was a bit aprehensive at first because I didn't know how easy it would be to clean. There's always something floating in the bowl that was either dirt or dog food at one point and those things tend to make the water yucky. Yes dogs sniff each others butts and worse which is more the reason they should have a clean source of water. I also want the best for them because they bring me happiness and love during times when I need it the most so things like having a clean water bowl seem to be the least I can do for them. The bowl itself feels good in the hand. Not too heavy, not too light. It also comes equipped with some very functional non-skid pads on the bottom to prevent the bowl from sloshing about while in use. The resevoir can hold one gallon and is made from the same material the five gallon jugs use. The cap has a spring loaded stopper that dispenses water when it's depressed which only happens once it's fastened to the bowl. Once it's released it stops the water from flowing out even when upside down. The jug fits snugly and has two stubs on each side that line up with an opening on the ring so when it's mounted, the jug slides gently into place and locks with a small twist. The channel between the bowl and where the water flows from is narrow to keep the water from pouring into the bowl and making a mess. I can carry the whole thing, with water, from the hallway to the kitchen sink, and not spill a drop. This thing is so easy to clean, it's child's play. The fountains on the other hand, it could take me a good thirty minutes to clean a fountain and I'd still find slimy spots. They're way too much maintenance for what they're designed to do and this takes me less than five.The bowl is large enough for both dogs to drink from and they drink more water now. I've purchased a lot of pet stuff over the years and a lot of it has been a waste of money because it was either too cheaply made or didn't function the way it should've. I'm happy to say that this is not one of those purchases. In fact, I've replaced all my water bowls with these. Wish I would've known about these sooner.

Very simple but effective and useful product. Holds a large amount of water. Easy to clean and refill. Esthetically neutral. My cat loves it because she drinks a lot of water and its always full and fresh. Easy on me because i only refill every couple of weeks but I dismantle to clean out the bowl a couple times a week. Very sturdy as well. I definitely recommend!

I like this one better than other brands I've had. It's easier to keep clean, since there are no rims around the bowl that catch grime and hold hard water, etc. The bottle is also the easiest to load of the ones I've had; you can lift it right out and it won't spill, even if it has water in it. The cap is a simple screw top type. I give this product A+ for ease of use and maintenance at a sensible price point.

I have been using the first one of these for about two years now. I ordered a second for a separate room in the house about a year later. They function as advertised and have held up well over time with one caveat: THEY ARE NOT DISHWASHER SAFE!! I left for a funeral 5 days ago and tossed all of the dog bowls etc. in the dishwasher before I went, because I didn't have time to hand wash like I usually do. Big mistake. The base of the bowl held up great, but the bottles came out all warped and busted so they're unusable now. I am ordering two more of the same unit to replace them, which I think is evidence enough that I have been thoroughly satisfied with it overall. Just don't make my mistake. Handwash only. The item may have come with a note saying it wasn't safe for the diswasher... if it did, I probably forgot over the last two years of owning and using them. I'm going to chalk up this experience as user error, not necessarily any fault of the product itself. Would I suggest this product to others? Absolutely if you are ok hand washing them. Would I order it again? Yes, and I have multiple times now. I am ordering two more of the same ones to replace the two I destroyed in the dishwasher.

This was such a great purchase! Before, we were using an automatic pet water fountain and it sucked so much. My corgi drinks a TON of water and the pet fountain couldn't handle it so it would spill out the water like crazy. Eventually, it was a hassle to constantly refill it and clean it. This water dispenser looked easy to use while also providing my dog with enough water. At first he didn't like how it wasn't a fountain lol, but later on he started using it with no problem. What I love the most about it is how easy it is to clean, fill, and put together. The size of it is also good for travel. Whenever I take my dog on road trips I fill up the gallon with water and close it with the cap, and it doesn't spill at all. I guess the only downside is the appearance of it? I mean, it's not the prettiest water dispenser in the world, but it matches everything else we have! In regards to using food instead of water....I don't know about that. My dog will keep eating like there's no tomorrow! So I can't imagine having any control if you used it for food.

This is my second Amazon Basics Gravity Pet Waterer. The first one (purchased in 2020) was wonderful, the dish and bottle connector were molded from a single piece of plastic (which matches the photos shown for this item). The bottle snapped on snugly and was easy to get off when empty, and you didn’t have to rotate it a certain direction to align it with the base. It worked perfectly and did not leak. The only reason I replaced it is because in taking it to my son’s house so he could dog sit for us, someone tripped and fell on top of it, cracking the base of the water dish. I am VERY unhappy with this one. It DOES NOT match the photos shown for the item. (See my photos attached to this review.) Even though it has the same Item number and ASIN, it is NOT the same. They changed the design of the dish such that the bottle connector is a separate piece attached to the dish via four screws. There doesn’t appear to be any extra seal between the dish and connector, so if you happen to tilt the dish back a little – as often happens when moving it – water pours out the back! It also traps water between the top of the dish and the bottom of the connector where mildew can grow, and it is very difficult to clean. Next, instead of an easy snap-on design, the bottle now has nubs on it that you have to align with notches in the top of the bottle connector and then twist COUNTER-clockwise to “secure” it. I put that in quotes because it is not nearly as secure as the old model that snapped on. If you think you have it aligned and you don’t (because of course you can’t SEE the stupid nubs when you’re holding the bottle upside down over the dish!), it’s possible to have the bottle fall off the stand. And whoever designed this never heard of “lefty loosy/righty tighty.” Who doesn’t know this? What other connector do you twist LEFT to secure it? Finally, the old bottle cap screwed onto the bottle and fit snugly without having to be too tight. This bottle cap has a silicone o-ring that is so loose it falls out every time you unscrew the cap (sometimes ending up INSIDE the bottle), and often gets misaligned when you screw the cap on, which causes the bottle to leak when you turn it upside down to set on the base. We have also had to put the whole waterer in a shoe tray because it just leaks. I suspect this is because the top of the bottle cap is above the level where the base meets the dish, so if the seal isn’t good the water level is too high, and again, water leaks over the side. The whole thing is such a poor design I’m just going to return it. If there is ANY way to get another of the original design, I want to do that. This one is horrible! The manual seems to indicate this is a recent redesign (V3-8/21). AMAZON, are you listening? Please give us the old design back! Update: edited to fix spelling errors.

I ordered two, and I'm about to order two more. Easy set up, and all seven cats (and one dog who thinks she's their union rep) drank within 5 minutes. I've had trouble keeping their FOUR water bowls filled this summer. These hold a lot more water, with a smaller evaporative surface.

Nice quality. Easy to refill

This is the second of these water feeders we have bought, and it has proved to be one of the most reliable pet products we own. The first one lasted about two years before it eventually wore out, which I think is good value considering how heavily it was used. The capacity is excellent. Even with a large golden retriever, it holds enough water to last three to four days, which makes it very convenient. The design is straightforward but well thought out. It comes apart easily for cleaning, which has been a big improvement over other feeders we tried in the past that became green and mouldy and were awkward to scrub properly. With this one, keeping it clean is quick and simple. Another strong point is its sturdiness. The tank is solid, reasonably heavy when filled, and doesn’t get knocked over or pushed around, even by a big dog. It’s also easy to see at a glance when the water is running low. Having tried more complex electric gadgets, I’ve found this simple design works far better because there’s nothing to go wrong. Overall, it’s practical, durable, and very effective. I would happily recommend it and will continue to buy the same product in the future.

Bonjour, je recommande fortement ce produit, acheté en juillet 2022 et on est le 3 janvier 2022 quand ma femelle est devenu gestante, ils vous facilite grandement la vie si comme moi vous avez plusieurs lapins qui boivent beaucoup surtout en été avec la canicule. L'appareil est facile a nettoyer. Petite astuce pour nettoyer le bidon, une tasse de riz, un peu d'eau et du liquide vaisselle, et là on remue fort pour bien nettoyer partout pendant 5 minutes, afin d'enlever les taches qui vont apparaitre sur les parois après 2 ou 3 mois d'utilisations ( ce qui est normal, même si vous changez l'eau régulièrement ). A noter : j'en ai commandé 4 , mais renvoyé 1 car le bidon avait un défaut de fabrication sur ses fixations. et au final 3 bidons étaient suffisant pour 9 lapins à remplir tous les 2 jours. Pour 2 lapins on renouvèle l'eau 1 fois par semaines. autre bémol, attention a ne pas perdre le joint du bidon qui parfois ne reste pas sur le capuchon, ça a l'avantage de pouvoir nous permettre de le nettoyer facilement avant de le remettre en place. Mise à part cela, aucun soucis, pas de fuite, c'est du solide, mais chenapan de 1,7 kg saute dessus pour grimpé ailleurs et ça ne bouge pas, pas de fuite, au top. Je ne regrette pas mon achat bien au contraire je recommande fortement, si comme moi ça vous arrive de partir 2 semaines et vous êtes obligé de laisser votre compagnon à la maison avec beaucoup de foins et distributeur de croquette périodique, au moins vous êtes sur qu'ils ne vont pas mourir de soif. (faites un test en présentiel avant la mise en pratique réelle )

Gets quite moldy inside so you better get a bottle brush. It’s always safer to go the stainless steel route.

Easy to use, sturdy built and solves the problem for my kitty who likes a clean supply of water. It's not too hard to wash up either, as it's plastic I clean it with dish soap twice a week. Ideally a steel reservoir would have been more sanitary and healthy for the furbabies. Also, this looks super cute - Kitty's own water dispenser!
