" ... Also comes with one filter for the water that "snap" on the water gallon. ... "
" ... I refill the 4gal every 2 days and have other water sources . ... "
" ... The cats are enjoying the filtered water much better than straight tap water and I'm enjoying not having to fill a dish twice a day. ... "
" ... It keeps a steady water supply available for my cat. ... "
" ... I already use filtered water so odds are we won’t replace it but it was a nice surprise. ... "
" ... Takes both of my little Pomeranians about a week to finish all of the water. ... "
" ... Perfect water bowl that holds just enough water without it becoming stagnant. ... "
" ... It's nice to not have to worry about water every day. ... "

" ... After having the same bowl for 5 years (don't worry it was cleaned constantly), it was time to change it up. ... "
" ... It’s also very easy to clean. ... "
" ... The Petmate version is very easy to clean and the jug is substantially more robust. ... "
" ... but with this it keeps his water bowl full with clean water for at least a week. ... "
" ... Great price there ($17 for the 2.5 gallon model, easy to clean, easy to fill and actually dispenses water). ... "
" ... The base is easy to clean and they even sell little filters you can put in it to clean the water. ... "
" ... I would recommend cleaning it out every time you refill to reduce any sliminess that may start to build up on the plastic. ... "
" ... This is great - I need to refill it once every 5-7 days instead of worrying about the cats' water dishes twice a day. ... "

" ... Now it has water for at least a few days! ... "
" ... And we enjoy that we don’t have to fill their water bowl every two hours! ... "
" ... Having this Gravity PETMATE has made it a lot easier to be gone for a long day as they can get fresh water without making a total mess on the floor . ... "
" ... it is great in keeping the water for the dog . ... "
" ... He's an adorable as hell black and white little guy, but the gurgle on the water bottle scare the heck out of the pampered little snot. ... "
" ... I like these water dispensers. ... "
" ... I fill this up with filtered water and it lasts at least triple what my previous waterer did. ... "
" ... Love that it filters the pup's water. ... "

" ... I like the size and it's easy to refill and use. ... "
" ... And it's simple/easy to setup. ... "
" ... Easy to use, no fuss. ... "
" ... Very easy to assemble and fill, my only regret is not getting the larger size so I'll probably order a larger one later so that my two dogs can also use it. ... "

" ... I stressed about whether to choose the 0.5 Gallon or 1 Gallon model. ... "
" ... The bottle holds a gallon and with a quarter turn, it secures tightly to the dish. ... "
" ... Unless you have a pack of 4 or more large dogs just go with the smaller size. ... "
" ... With the filter design, the food doesn’t float to the top of the reserve. ... "
" ... We bought the 1 gallon for our two medium sized dogs and I wouldn’t get one any bigger! ... "
" ... Being busy and having a size I only need to fill once a week is a huge time savers plus the filters help me feel better about my pup’s dish being filled up by the tap ... "
" ... This has delivered exactly as expected, we fill it from a filtered tank so it takes a while to refill, but we'll get 10 days out of it vs. refilling bowls twice a day. ... I recommend this product, and I recommend the manufacturer add a handle to the bottle to ease maneuvering into the stand. ... "
" ... The 4 gallons is huge! ... Lol so glad I went for the 4 gallon. ... "

" ... One would not drink out of it because of the plastic smell. ... "

" ... If there is a strap that is made to fit the size of my bottle (1 gallon), I hope that someone sends it to me. ... "
" ... Any way I can just buy the bottom black part that screws on to the base to hold the water in? ... "
" ... I went to flip over and hit the plastic piece just so that caused the entire thing to break. ... "
" ... Then carefull lift the whole thing it’s very slippery because it’s wet and then turn it upside down with 2.5 gallons ... "
" ... For some reason the threads to the outflow cap have just come loose so now I can't place the bottle in the bowl when it is full of water. ... "
" ... This "new" bottle has an awkward screw on 5" cap that contains a ridiculous charcoal filter. ... "
