Good Investment

Date: March 22, 2009

"This is an absolutely wonderful product. With my hectic military schedule this product eliminates my worries about my pet being fed; Multiple programable schedules to the very second, flawless, and quiet operation, The timer is even battery operated; in the case of a power outage your pets feeding program will not be reset. The timer also has a built in power outlet so it will not occupy your outlet. I purchased a unit which holds about ten pounds of food. It stirs the food in the container as well. At first I did not believe all the good reviews and wanted to see it for myself, and I will say I am very impressed. I highly recommend this for anyone with a busy schedule...or who may sometimes be forgetful when it comes to their pet feeding schedules. Or just down right lazy! This product was well designed with attention to important details (thick resistant power cord in case of scratching or chewing). If your in the market for an automatic pet feeder, this surely meet your pets needs."

Broken already

Date: January 28, 2009

"I bought this product at the end of September and it is already broken. The motor stopped working and the plastic is flopping around. I tried calling the Ergo customer support and got a fast busy signal so still have not been able to resolve. I bought this at full price and it is most definitely not worth the money!"

Poorly made

Date: October 1, 2008

"I purchased a large Ergo feeder for my Chesepeake Bay Retriever in April - 2008. The motor has now stopped working September -2008 - 5 months old. I have called Ergo and have spoken to a couple people in customer service who have a hard time speaking English. It's so frustrating trying to explain what's broken (burnt out motor) to someone who can't even speak our language.
The feeder is a good idea, but it is made real poorly. If the parts had a better warranty and the customer service could actually help you, I would recommend this product. I would try another brand, which I'm going to have to do - now that mine is broken and worthless."

very easy to use and manage

Date: September 8, 2008

"I have two very obese cats that I try to watch how much they eat. I bought this because you can schedule it more times and could have as little or more food. The programming was easy to set up. It goes off every three hours. Before I would put a little in their dish and then they would eat it all at the time and want more later. This lets me give them a little at a time. Plus it is great when I go on weekend vacations. The only thing I wish is that it had an actually door that latched during non feeding times. It did not take long for them to figure out how to get more food out, even though it is just a few that come out. If it had a door that would latch shut and then open when the timer went off it would eliminate the little extra they have. Overall this is a great product, especially when trying to control the feeding of your pets. I researched other feeders and this one had the most flexibility as far as 6 timers and how much food too disburse."
