 Will they ever use add a good enough pump? March 15, 2010
Heiko Ramirez (Atlanta, GA)
Twice I've used this device and each time the pump was pathetic. Out of the box the water only trickles and in less than a month it is impossible to tell if water is coming out unless I put my finger against the ramp. Each time I tried using this something broke, whether it was the pump or the cheap plastic pump, I could never keep this up and running for more than 6 months. Not to mention it was always dirty. I don't mean I had to clean it every other week. Every morning I would have to wash it out and twice a day I was adding a liter of water.
This thing is useless.
Excellent Fountain for Cats March 15, 2010
My2cents
My 6 month old kitten started using this 2 minutes after I had it set up. I have never seen him drink so much water till I got this. He loves it. I orginally had the Drinkwell Platinum but that fountain seemed to confuse him. He would stick his head under the stream and I was afraid he would get water in his ear and get an ear infection. The Petmate fountain solved that problem because the water runs down the slide. I find the Petmate fountain to be more user friendly as far as cleaning and it is quieter than the drinkwell.
Love the idea! March 15, 2010

But I returned the product b/c we had no ideal place to plug it in where my cats liter box and food/water are located in the bathroom.
 Works for about a day..then worthless March 15, 2010
Chris Hess (Baltimore MD)
I've had this filter for about 6 months now and I am throwing it out. When you put in a fresh filter the unit will work as advertised for a day or two, at which point the filter becomes worthless and doesn't allow the water through. The pump then makes a gurgling noise and the flow of water reduces to about a trickle. Since no water can get through the filter, the water becomes very dirty and undrinkable. I've replaced the filter, followed all the instructions on the unit, and have had this same problem repeat itself over and over. Just use a bowl and fill it with water every day.
Complete Garbage Here March 13, 2010

I dont often review products unless they are absolutely fantastic or fail in every way. This product is absolutely fantastic at failing in every way... I purchased this item over at WalMart last Saturday (03/06/2010), today is Friday not even one week later and I have already given up on this piece of crap. The very first day I put it together my Cat Spider just loved it, seemed to drink more than usual and I found it very quiet. Made me very happy to see him drinking much more than usual, that's gotta be a good thing, right?. But the very next morning I found it making noises and noticed my cat was making paw prints all over my apartment, including my computer desk, blu-ray player, and all my A/V electronics and furniture. I felt the bottom of his feet and discovered his feet are wet. Went over to check on the Fresh Flow and found a large puddle of water in about a foot in all directions of the unit. So on Sunday I was forced to clean the entire area of water and of course kitty litter and food that had gotten soggy and messy on the wet floor. What a mess.... I took the unit apart and inspected it and found nothing wrong what so ever. Put it back together and filled it with water exactly like it says in the instructions and found absolutely no leaks, I even let it sit there for an hour on the table trying to find a slow leak, but nothing. So I put it back in the same spot and later that day I started hearing noises again maybe say 6-8 hours later and went to check up on the fresh flow and found it nearly empty of water and a puddle several feet in every direction from the unit. Took it apart and had to clean the entire area yet again. Wow, what a pain. Monday, Tuesday, Wensday, Thursday and today Ive come home from work only to have to clean the entire apartment, instead of relaxing and enjoying my Cat. Today, tired as I am I have to spend quite a bit of time yet again cleaning up kitty litter that has gotten muddy like and stuck on the floor and now have to clean every piece of furniture I have just to get the brown wet paw prints off everything. Yes every morning when Ive awakened and every night when I get home from work I have had to clean the place up just because of water everywhere. Usually he does not track much litter out of his box but because his feet are wet from this device he is getting litter stuck on his paws. I have taken the unit apart, can not find a single thing wrong with it yet it keeps producing large puddles that my cat has to walk in in order to get a drink. My Cat is 15 years old and has never once put his feet in his water bowl so I know its not him somehow taking the water out of it. It happens while Im home watching TV, working in my office all while he is in my lap. Ive decided one week of mess is enough, I just dont have the energy to try and figure out whats going on anymore. Going to put his old water bowl back out and throw this junk in the garbage and order the Drinkwell. If only I had kept the retail box maybe I could get a refund from WalMart.
Time to try the Drinkwell Platinum since it actually seems to have happy customers and MUCH better reviews.
