 Great product October 15, 2008

good item arrived on schedule and in good order. Cat took some time a week to get cofortable with the fountain but now likes it. Seems to me
my cat's breath is not so strong now. Would highly recommend this for all cat owners.
Great fountain so far!! October 14, 2008

I just got this about 1 week ago. I got it for our aging Bichon who is blind, and is starting to not drink as much (I figured the noise would direct her). I also have 1 other dog, and a cat. I kept the regular water bowl out just in case. All of the animals have flocked to the new fountain!! They have not even touched the old bowl. It is really getting all of them to drink more. It has also stayed clean a lot longer than my other bowl. I was cleaning the bowl once a day because my cat likes to put his paws into the water and lick it off. He does not do that with this one, he just licks right from the flow. It is too soon to see if there are any design flaws, but I will post if any pop up. So far, this was worth the investment, and I do hope it lasts because it really does seem like it is benefiting my animals by getting them to drink more water, and saving me time by letting me go for a bit between cleanings.
Definitely worth it! October 10, 2008

We have 2 cats, one who loves to drink out of the bathroom faucet. He even got to the point where he would wake me up at night and keep pawing at my face until I got up and turned it on. I had considered a pet fountain for some time but with so many had a hard time choosing how much to spend and what features I thought would be the best for our cats. I decided on the platinum model because the water comes out just like the faucet, not just down a ramp. Both cats took to it the first day, sitting and watching the water and playing with it with their paws. By the second day they were both drinking out of it.
I don't use the charcoal filters since our water is filtered to begin with. The little plastic filter by the flow control is great for keeping hair out of the pump. It is fairly quiet but of course you can hear the running water, which was easy to get used to. A big plus for me is it is very easy to take apart and clean, and easy to reassemble. The only negative is the design of the cap for the water tank- it has no seal so when you turn it over to insert into the base it leaks quite a bit. I do think it is too expensive but don't consider that a negative- it was a small price to pay to keep a cold nose from waking me up in the middle of the night!

This is a great product. In all honesty, I don't see much wrong with it, other than I don't like that I have to buy a new filter so often. Cleaning of the fountain has become quick and easy for me. I've also decided, just for the cats, that I will use bottled water so the filter is not used up as quickly, as my tap water is atrocious. All in all, I like this product and it's a great way to get my cats to drink more water.
Great buy! October 6, 2008

My cats love their new drinkwell! The fountain is placed on a towel which catches any splatter. We do not notice any noise! I am not crazy about the weekly cleaning, but it is not too difficult. It does NOT require any special brushes. I use plain bottle brush. We also use filtered water from frig which decreases the need for more frequent changes of filters.
The charcoal filters are hard to find in pet supply stores and vary greatly in cost- from $14.00 to $11 per 3 pk.
Would be cheaper to order on line and pay shipping!
