Automatic feeder with timer

I needed an auto feeder for our outdoor cat since we are going away for a few days. We used to have feeders that raccoons would get to and break, so I wanted one with a flat top so I could weigh it down with something. This one fit well and the price was good, so I took it. The instructions are clear, the setup is simple. It was possible to program several feedings a day so that the cat definitely gets food during the day, because raccoons can eat it at night. The container holds quite a lot of food, more than we need for the 2 days we are away, and the feeder works as it should. I weighed it down with several bricks on top, so now the raccoons would never drag it away. I don’t need her full-time, but it’s nice to have peace of mind when we’re away and know that the cat is fed (and several stray cats in the area, too). So far it seems reliable, easy to clean, since the tray is removable and the portion size is adjustable - the cat is full, but not overfed, and I don’t have to feed all the animals within a mile radius. I put it under a roof on the back porch so it's not affected by the weather. I can’t speak about durability outdoors yet, but it’s well-built. I'm happy with the purchase, I like this one more than the expensive one I had before.

Great stuff! This feeder was super easy to assemble and set up, the container holds much more than I expected, which is very helpful if you need to leave your pets for a couple of days. I also liked that there is a push “lock” on the lid; it is very reliable and saves you if your ponytails try to open it. Feed dispensing works well, exactly as stated. The process of adjusting the times and portions seems more complicated than it actually is, and it's a very user-friendly system if you need to go back and tweak something, don't be put off by the instructions!! Overall, super satisfied and

I love this feeder and so does my barn cat Muffin. She gets food on time, twice a day. Works well, is easy to program and now if I need to go away for the day I know it will be fine. The feeder is incredibly durable, as proven by a recent adventure with a raccoon. He stole the entire feeder and dragged it across the floor of the barn! Had to replace the cord because it ripped it out of the wall... but after all that, the feeder still works! And we caught the raccoon in a trap and took it away!

Works great! I love it and it's easy to set up! The only bummer is that when you set it up, it squeaks loudly like crazy lol, it’s really loud, but otherwise it holds about 2/3 of a 2.5 kg bag and the food is perfectly stored there, the lid can be easily removed with a slight twist! a successful automatic cat feeder at an affordable price!

I bought the IMIPAW 3L Automatic Feeder to automate strict calorie control for my adult cat while I'm away for the weekend. Automatic feeders sometimes fail due to food getting stuck or when clever pets break open the container. After three weeks of continuous use, this dispenser has proven to be extremely reliable, safe and accurate, although the battery compartment requires special attention when setting up. Physical size and security. Container size: 3 liters - good volume for one cat or small dog. Holds approximately 12-14 cups of regular dry food, allowing for approximately 2-3 weeks of self-contained feeding without running out of food. Pet Proof Cap: The locking mechanism for the top cap is excellent. The lock prevents stubborn cats from turning the device over and getting food ahead of time. Keeps it Fresh: The built-in desiccant compartment inside the lid is a chic detail. Really prevents moisture buildup and keeps food crisp even in a damp kitchen. Programming flexibility and portion calibration. The built-in LCD interface allows you to schedule from 1 to 6 meals per day, which is good for fractional meals so that the cat does not vomit. Portion Accuracy: Portion sizes are highly adjustable. I tested dispensing consistency with a round feed of about 0.9 cm. The internal rotor dispensed exactly the same volume every cycle without a single jam or double ejection. Sound Features: The 10-second voice recording is clear and loud enough without distortion, and works great as a food cue. Dual power and mechanical safety. Backup system: Double power is a must-have for everyone who travels. The device runs on a standard 5V adapter, but quickly switches to 3 backup D batteries in the event of a power outage. Power Cord Warning: Although the unit operates flawlessly, the cord channel on the bottom base of the unit is narrow. If you use a braided cable or a thicker non-original USB cable, it will be difficult to fit into the groove, which may cause the feeder to sit a little unevenly on the floor. It’s better to leave the original wire so that it stands well and level. Hygiene: The stainless steel bowl sits securely in a plastic stand and can be easily removed for a quick wash in the dishwasher, preventing the buildup of oils that cause acne in cats. Bottom line. If you want a reliable, highly customizable, jam-free auto feeder that keeps food fresh and protected from mischievous pets, the IMIPAW 3L is an exceptional choice in the mid-range segment. Simply use the original factory cord and insert backup batteries for complete peace of mind. Lightweight and looks great in the kitchen.

Easy to set up, works great so far, can set many different feeding times. I took a 3 liter one, so it fits a small pack of cat food.

Great item, super easy to set up and works well for feeding our cats. I don't understand why I didn't buy it sooner!!

This automatic feeder has changed our lives. Works great and the cat no longer wakes us up in the morning to eat. And we also don’t worry that he will remain hungry if we are away from home all day. The only negative: if you disconnect it from the network and move it, the automatic feed will not work, you need to re-program it. Not that it's a problem, but I would like to know about it right away.

Very efficient and well made

Works great. Our cat was a little nervous at first, but got used to it after a couple of days.

It works well, but the internal clock is off by a few minutes. It takes time to reset the time.
