What owners single out
Buyers' weakest aspect—food compatibility & dispensing failures—directly mirrors the video reviewers' concern about kibble size limitations causing jams.
In their words
“My cats and I love this feeder! I live alone and work outside the home most days. With this feeder, I always know my cats will be fed on time and the right amount! Food stays fresh and the battery back up is a great addition!”

“I know they have said this works well with my sizes of Bible but it really does not. Our dog is on adult weight control kibble and it is bigger than the small pellets for regular food. The hopper can be full and the food will not go up through the elevator to go out the front to feed our dog. It’s telling me she is being fed and she’s not.”
