PETLIBRO Automatic Cat Feeder, Auto Pet Food Dispenser with Freshness Preservation, Timed Cats Feeders with Low Food Sensor for Dry Food, Up to 6 Meals Per Day, Granary Pet Feeder for Cats/Dogs

I believe this product is absolutely worth it if you're looking for an automatic feeder with a camera.The app to use it is simple and has some nice options when it comes to controlling the feeder and recordings. You can set up a schedule and how much you want to depsense in 1/12 of a cup. So 12/12 being a full cup. We have set up to 5 feedings per day of smaller portions. You have to option to turn off a specific feeding that day which we like. It will resume the next day if there is still food in the bowl and you dont want any to dispense.It also uses batteries as a backup if the power were to go out. It needs 3 D batteries.We had an issued with the SD card we purchased working for approximately a week and then suddenly stopped. We promptly reached out to PetLibro support who worked with us with troubleshooting and trying different SD cards. When the second one we purchased didnt work it was escalated to a supervisor who gave us a few suggested SD cards and even compensated the purchase of one to ensure we had a smooth and good experiance. The new SD worked and we were told the ones we had to were too fast for the feeder. We chose the Kingston SDCS2 model if you're looking for one that will work with the device.Overall the experiance with the company has been wonderful. The device works well and and is easy to use. It ensures our cats are fed when we aren't home all day. I would happily support this company going forward.

Fill and forget. When fully filled holds enough food to last two 7lbs adolescent cats for a little more than two weeks. Feeding schedule and quantities are super customizable. Quantities disbursed can be set in 1/12th cup increments up to a full cup. I have ours set to six feedings a day ranging from 2/12ths a cup to 4/12ths a cup. You can also pause feedings or remotely request a manual extra feeding using the app or via buttons on the front (lockable). When away for a night or two, the camera and device updates provide nice reassurance that everyone is getting fed. We also use the water fountain in combo with it. Camera resolution is quite clear.

**Update**Customer service emailed me back, and they walked me through steps I had already done.They asked for video proof.I emailed them a video.They sent me back the part that holds the electronics quickly.I connected the unit to a new wifi SSID that I set up that only has 2.4Ghz and it is working fine.Connected to the app right after.I will update if anything goes wrong.**Original**Stopped working after a month, it would not connect to wifi. I tried resetting it for about 1 week. Leaving unplugged and retrying, it would not connect like it did when I set it up initially. The app would see the unit but will not adopt. Waiting on a message from the company for replacement.

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.

The thing works great I love it. I just wish the cats reacted to it like you see on videos. Easy to set up. I have three times set to feed. That would be my one complaint it allows you to make a recording, but you can only make one recording you can’t make a different one for each Feed time. Like I was gonna say it’s breakfast time come and get it. Or a dinner is coming let’s eat. Examples but you can only use one and if you record three like I did originally, whichever the last one you set up in the last timer will be the default one easy to clean. I haven’t had an issue yet with the power was out and it still worked so I don’t know if that actually does it said I guess I could unplug it and just let it sit and see what it does. I like that you can set the amount of food that you feed to limit how much they eat and the video qualities is awesome.

Great sturdy parts. Somewhat easy to set up & connect it to the wifi. Easy to clean, large reservoir. Great image quality. The only issue is unequal food distribution, not a big difference but it’s definitely uneven
