Automatic Cat Feeder for 2 Cats, 5G&2.4G WiFi Pet Feeders, 5L Programmable Cat Food Dispenser with Airtight Lock-Fresh Technology, Dual Stainless Steel Bowls, Low Food Sensor

TL;DR: Works and looks great with the exception of the recorded message feature. I bought this autofeeder for my cat out of desperation. She meows incessantly for 45 minutes or more before meal times which annoys my dog into shriek howling with every meow and causes me to contemplate double murder. I've only had this feeder for a couple days but so far it is working great! My cat is still learning that she must appeal to her new machine overlord for food, but she is already much better than she was. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and I will update my review if anything changes. PROS: - Easy set-up. It takes a few minutes but unless you're changing the schedule all the time for some reason, it's really not terrible. Some reviews claim you have to cycle through every time and portion to change something but that's not true. You can use the "+" and "-" buttons to navigate to the meal slot you want to change without starting from the beginning. Unused slots will have a time but if you set the portion to zero they will not dispense anything. This is probably obvious but it did confuse me for a second. I set mine to have 4 meals spaced 6 hours apart and it's been working like a charm. - No jamming problems even with larger kibble so far. The cat food I buy has larger chunks interspersed in with smaller kibble and I was worried that it might jam up the dispenser. So far it has been working just fine. It has a helpful sticker on the lid that shows you the largest kibble size it will accommodate and it seems to be accurate. I bought the 5L version which holds 4-5 lbs of food. - My devious cat has yet to figure out how to get extra kibble from it. The panel auto-locks so she can't press any buttons. I've seen her stick her paw up the chute to dig around but she hasn't succeeded in any extra snacks yet as far as I can tell. It's only been a few days so time will tell if she will use her demon powers to beat the machine. I would suggest either putting this feeder on the floor or securing it in place because I suspect that my cat would be able to push it off a table and/or knock it over of it was empty enough. The weight D batteries alone might make it relatively stable to tipping though. I have not actually seen her move it yet but I remain wary because she is a larger cat at 14 lbs and generally a menace to society*. - It seems well-made and is very sleek and modern looking. Appearance is less important than function to me but it does look quite nice. - I like that there is a battery meter display even when plugged in. I intend to have it plugged in all the time but it will be nice to know when the back-up batteries need to be replaced. - After completing set-up, I decided to move the feeder and had not installed batteries in it yet. I was expecting to reset at least the time but was pleasantly surprised to see it did not reset at all. It was unplugged for all of 10 seconds so I can't attest to how long it can go without power or batteries before resetting the time. - A customer service rep from PETLIBRO messaged me before my product arrived with some helpful tips and reminder that they have customer service available 24 hours on week days if I need it and a 12 month warranty. I have not had a need to contact customer service but I thought the pro-active message was nice. CONS: - It is not clear from anywhere in the instructions what constitutes a portion. From my measurements, it seems that one portion is equivalent to approximately 1/8 cup. I am happy with this portion size but I wish it had been clear without requiring experimentation on my part. - In my opinion, the only truly poor feature about this product is the recorded message option (whether you intend to use it or not). Other reviews mention that the recording quality is very poor and I have to agree. It is very staticy and mine also makes a rhythmic rasping noise even when recording silence. I had no intention of using this feature anyway as the sound of a pin drop would probably send her scrambling from across the house if it meant food. The problem is that there doesn't seem to be a way to delete or turn off the recording without resetting the whole machine. I hit the record button by mistake during set-up, which is very easy to do, and I didn't want to start over. I "bypassed" it by hitting the record button quick succession to create as short of a recording as I possibly could. The quick blip of static when it dispenses food doesn't bother me but it is annoying you can't just turn this feature off all together. This is by no means a deal breaker to me but if having a nice recorded message is important to you, I would not recommend this feeder. - Not exactly a con but I prefer a shallow dish for feeding my cat. The bowl that comes with the feeder is deep but it is a nice bowl and I like that it has a tray that attaches to the feeder to keep it from being kicked around. Luckily her old shallow bowl fits nicely within the provided bowl and I haven't noticed any issues with spilling while doing this. Not a big deal but something to consider if it matters to you. *I promise that I actually love my cat very much! 😂 Picture attached. She's the best cat in the world... when she's not hungry.

I was looking for a highly rated and reliable dual dry food cat feeder and everywhere. I looked kept recommending this one. I went back and forth about whether or not I wanted to upgrade for the camera and I'm so glad I did. It has become a ritual even when I'm not there with the cats to check in on them during meal times. I also love that I can record a voice message so they listen for my voice and know it's time to eat. And of course I saw all those cute videos of cats listening for the sound and then running to their bowl and I was so hopeful that mine would do that and they do! It really is so sweet. As for this particular feeder, I am overall very impressed. The app was really intuitive and has been extremely reliable. The camera quality is decent as well and switches from black and white to color. Depending on the time and light. I would say the food dispenses a little less evenly than I would prefer. Sometimes it seems like more goes in one side than the other, but my cats do not hoard food so it ends up working out fine. I did have to do a little research to figure out how much to be feeding them because it was a little unclear but there are resources available to help you figure it out. I really am pleased with this purchase and I'm going to be looking at this brand for other smart cat tech in the future.

Unfortunately we are returning this product. We already have 2 PetLibro water fountains and the smaller 'Air' feeder. They have done their job the 5 months we've had them and our cats like them. The one drawback for the Air feeder is its size - with 2 cats I have to refill it ever 3-5 days. Otherwise it works well. Some reviews were concerned it didn't dispense accurately but I measured several times and it always provided an amount within about 10% of expected - close enough. So I ignored the reviews that said to be careful of this same problem with the Granary. I thought the larger capacity of the Granary meant I'd be able to go 1-2 weeks between refills given it was 2.5x the capacity. My wife also liked the idea of the camera feature so she could see if the cats were eating equally or if just one was using it more. When I set up the Granary it looked like the same mechanism as the Air, but it doesn't work the same way or nearly as well. For some reason it takes a looong time to dispense. Doing the testing during setup took 5 minutes to get it running but over an hour to test how well it put out food because dispensing even just 4x portions took forever (what was supposed to be 1/3rd of a cup). For some reason it pauses between each portion (portion, pause, portion, pause...) and each portion takes almost as long as several portions from the Air. It also makes a lot more noise than the Air, on top of the food hitting the bowl - it sounds like it is straining to dispense the food. I could live with slow dispensing, it was the wildly inaccurate dispense amount that was the deal breaker. The other reviews are right. I tried dispensing in cups, grams, and oz (all 3 possible units). It *never* dispensed more than half as much as it was told. If it always dispensed half I could adjust and just double the scheduled servings. However it wasn't just wrong, it was also wildly inconsistent - dispensing between 20% and 50% of the directed amount with no pattern to the ratio. These aren't guessed values - I recorded the requested amount and then used a measuring cup or scale to measure the result, testing multiple times with different portion counts. There is no way to compensate for that much variability. I followed the troubleshooting and definitely put out way more then the 'it will be inaccurate for the first 6 servings'. The kibble I use (purina pro plan kitten) is within their size recommendation (they have a handy 'no bigger than this' sticker on the machine). Nothing improved the inaccurate and inconsistent serving sizes. Maybe my particular kibble is just too close to being the wrong size or shape despite fitting in their recommended circle. Back to using the smaller Air feeder.

We've been using this feeder for about a year and a half. It was reasonably priced, had been easy to use and worked really well although we had to reboot/reset it a couple of times. It stopped working at all a few days ago (unrelated to lack of power or internet service). Otherwise, we've been very satisfied with this feeder.

I’ve been using the petlibro granary dual feeder for a year now, and I couldn’t be happier with it! It has made feeding my cats so much easier and more convenient. The camera works really well, allowing me to check in on my cats and see how they’re doing, while the scheduled feedings have been consistently reliable and always dispense on time. One of the biggest improvements is that my cats no longer roam around me or meow constantly to remind me that it’s feeding time. They’ve adjusted to their feeding schedule, and it has made our daily routine so much more peaceful! Since my cats tend to eat their kibble too quickly, I decided to purchase slow feeder bowls to help slow them down. However, I ran into an issue with kibble getting trapped and hiding at the bottom of the ceramic bowls, making it difficult for my cats to reach every last piece. That’s when I discovered the slow feeder adapter by Elmwil on Etsy, specifically designed for the petlibro granary dual feeder. It has been such a fantastic addition! The adapter helps address the issue of kibble getting lost at the bottom of the ceramic bowls, making feeding time more practical and less frustrating for my cats. I’m extremely satisfied with the craftsmanship and durability of the adapter. It is well-made, sturdy, and thoughtfully designed. You can tell that care went into making this product, and I appreciate how well it complements the petlibro granary dual feeder. It’s an excellent solution for anyone who wants to use slow feeder bowls with their feeder while minimizing the amount of kibble that gets left behind or becomes difficult to reach. Overall, I highly recommend both the petlibro granary dual Feeder and Elmwil’s slow feeder adapter from Etsy. The petlibro has been reliable for an entire year, and the adapter is an excellent upgrade that makes an already great feeder even better. If you have cats who eat too quickly and use ceramic slow feeder bowls, this adapter is absolutely worth considering. I’m very happy with the quality, functionality, and durability of this addition to my cats’ feeding setup! 🐱❤️

I am absolutely blown away and how well this feeder operates. I’ve been using it for two months and it’s never lost Internet connection. Firmware updates have been easy. Camera quality is excellent and motion sensor response beautifully. I travel frequently for business and this feeder has made my life a lot less stressful.

I wasn’t too excited about this product when received it was quite plain, but I wanted a dual cat feeder. This is now the second item I received and had to return, two different brands. It looks nice and I possibly got a defective unit, but the motor would barely turn African-, it was struggling to feed or push the kibble through. I know the kibble size is correct because I’ve been using the same kibble in my other current feeder. I did have another brand of dual feeder that I also had to return because it wouldn’t feed the correct portion size. So I went back to my original single feeder, which is still solid and working strong after a couple of years, and costs half the price of these expensive ones. For me this one didn’t work out, but seemed to be quite pricey for not so great unit.

Have to give couple weeks to see how it goes but so far cats don’t have problems with it. I got the double bowl and camera with 5L. I would definitely get the bigger one 5L. Have to see how long that last with 2 cats. The camera works and is free no subscription required unless you want backup online. Other reviews make it sound like you have to get subscription to see camera. You get live view and notification for free. The amount of cat food dispensed starts at 1/12 of a cup. That very small amount, so you want 1 cup you have to set the app to 12/12. The app lets to set up to 4 cups of food to be dispensed at 1 time. Racoon proof first night. I have raccoons that come on porch at night eat left over cat food. So with the feeder I set to only put out as much food as the cats will eat. The thing holds like 8 pounds of cat food. The raccoons were looking at the feeder but have not tried to get inside or knock top off. The top cover were you fill it up has lock. I believe the dispenser is can’t be reached with paws. Update- Had it for 5 days and I tried dispensing 2 cups in morning and it’s to much food at one time. I got warning about clogged dispenser chute. That was not problem because the cat eat the food in bowls and the extra food fell into bowls. Now I just dispense 1 cup 6:30am. The cats eat that and dispense another 1/2 cup(6/12 cup in app) at 8:30am. Then dispense 1/2 cup at 2 pm and 1/2 cup at 6:30pm. That’s 4 events per day. In the app you can have up to 6 feeding per day. The 2 bowl 5L uses the PETLIT PRO app(there is lite version for other feeders) the Pro app has many settings and notifications you can turn off if you want. Feeding two cats I can probably get 5-7 day with the 5L unit. I should have filled it up to very top first time. I had another stray cat showed up and I did manual feed for him from app. It did disconnect from WiFi 2 time for about 1 hour but it reconnected automatically. I had two firmware updates from the app also. The camera has lots of white out in daytime.

It’s a good product came with good condition

I absolutely love this it is brilliant and my cat recognises now when the food drops great gadget

Very happy with the feeder! A great option for a single-cat household. The setting-up process is a bit of a hassle but the machine is always responsive so you get used to it. I only wish that the portions were a little smaller so that I can have more control over the quantity of food. I find that for my cat, 1 portion is too little but 2 portions is too much. Nonetheless, once you figure out an overall system for your cat's food, it works out.

Depuis que j’ai acheter ce produit, plus besoin de penser a donner a manger à notre chat, le distributeur s’en charge, le réglage est assez simple et notre chat connais par coeur le bruit des croquettes qui tombent dans la petite gamelle. La fonction pile (non incluse) est aussi judicieux en cas de panne de courant. Je recommande.

I love it so much it really helped me feed my cats while im outside the house
