Cheerble Pumpless Cat Water Elfin Fountain, Wireless Pet Fountain Battery Operated, 2L/67oz E1+ Automatic Water Dispenser Cats & Dogs MagDrive™ Technology Stainless Steel Tray, No Cleaning Hassle

I’ve had maybe 5 other cat fountains and this one is by far my favorite. I like that it’s dishwashable and doesn’t use a pump, it’s super easy to clean. Since there’s no pump it only needs one filter and not the extra spongey bit that goes with those. It’s also almost completely silent, the only time I can hear it is when the water level is low. There hasn’t been any staining and it’s easy to get hard water deposits off it. I’ve had the first one for a year and a half and also got a second one recently, they’ve held up well. I might even get a third

Although the body is plastic, the drinking surface is stainless steel, which was a priority for me. I do like that the plastic body makes the water level easy to see, so you can quickly assess when to change it. The fountain was fairly easy to put together, and the sensor mode works well (I haven't tried the other one). It does seem to work whether or not it is plugged in—I have an outlet handy so I haven't left it on battery mode for long. My only con is that, without a standard pump, I was expecting it to be nearly silent apart from the sound of the water itself. Instead, when I first put it together, it made a faint and disturbing grinding sound that wouldn't cease. I took it apart again and fiddled with the magnetic piece that channels the water, and eventually got the grinding sound to fade to the point where it wasn't so aggravating. If that hadn't worked, I would have had to return it purely based on the noise issue. Now it runs sufficiently quietly not to be a problem, but I think the mechanism is actually a little bit noisier than my other fountain-type waterer that uses a traditional pump! I wasn't expecting that. I don't know if this is normal, or if I got one that's a bit off-kilter. UPDATE: After using this for several months, I'm raising my review to five stars. The sound issue worked itself out, and this waterer is BY FAR the easiest to clean and refill of any that I've owned, apart from a regular bowl. The water container lifts right off the base so you don't have to drag the cord along! And the whole thing disassembles and reassembles in a snap. You can do a deep clean every time without any extra effort, and there are no inaccessible parts for bacteria to build up. This thing has really proven its value, and I came back to buy a second one.

I love this cat fountain. It is so easy to assemble, durable, definitely quiet, and has a nice clean look. It holds plenty of water and very easy to clean.

I want to tell you guys how much I love this water fountain. I have been through countless fountains with my cats. They last a couple of months that’s it. Even with regular cleaning there would be mold, the motor would fail, they would just stop and have to be replaced so I kept spending money over and over on this one thing. Then, I saw a TikTok ad for this Cheerbles. I had a little extra at the time. So yes I bought this $80 water fountain for my spoiled girls. And it was worth it. It’s so easy to clean. I take it apart 1 or 2x a week, which is only necessary because of my cat, not the fountain. She is constantly putting her paws in it and playing with it, she likes to mess when the sensors. Frankly, she’s obsessed with it and spends hours a day plying with it while the other cat just stares in mild disgust. Anyways, that why I have to clean it so often - she gets litter in the water. The fountain itself is wonderful. It’s quiet. The auto sensor works well. I do have non-Cheerbles filters inside and the fountain doesn’t like them but I am poor and don’t care. The gravity pump is wonderful, it’s much easier to clean. I use a steel straw brush to clean the pump inside and out. The water has to be replaced about 2x per week which seems quick but again, my cat is taking bird baths in it. Get the fountain. No fountain is a walk in the park, they all have to be cleaned regularly as your pet is dropping fur, litter, and probably a ton of backwash into the fountain, but this is so easy to maintain plus it functions as a cat toy. If nothing else my cat is well hydrated.

I think this fountain outdoes 90 percent of other fountains on the market. The Good: The reason I purchased a new fountain is because I used to have a stainless steel pump fountain and that was hell to clean. It would also get so moldy so fast and in my opinion, you could never get all of the mold out of it unless you dunked it in white vinegar every time. This one is perfect because the electronic part is seperate from the basin and it is extremely easy to clean. It’s not loud at all (see video attached) and the build quality is pretty good. It took a bit of time for my cats to get used to but now it’s their normal. You also don’t have to buy name brand filters because you can get a year supply on amazon for 12 bucks. Why I took off one star: I truly wish this fountain was all stainless steel. Such a missed opportunity at that. I also hate that there isn’t an option to always have the fountain running. It’s a motion sensor that turns on when the pet comes to the front of it. Overall: I would 100% recommended this to anyone over a pump fountain. Trust me, after using a pump for over 5 years, it is worth the extra 20-40 dollars.

This is not continuous. Ai and Amazon kept brining me to this when I had search requests for a continuous fountain. I was planning on returning immediately. But thinking if my cats seem to like it then I might keep it. However they don’t seem interested as they are with this other continuous streaming one I have. And the fact it shuts on and off (the on is not result that long) seems to distract them and just cause them to stare instead. The build quality seems good. I like the steel albeit not much is. Battery is irrelevant to me as I planned to leave it plugged in. It’s louder than The pumpless vekken fountain I have. However it’s mostly off so therefore technically it becomes the quietest…. I wish the battery isn’t on the bottom. I worry of leaks and now noticing dripping from the other vekken fountain from cats licking it and it kind of spills from that. I’ve yet to see one cat drink from this one yet so hard to tell. I don’t think it lasts long enough for them to get interested. It’s unique in that the top tray can lock in. Good to carry with. I like that parts seem easy to clean. But if cats don’t like it… I’ll update this.. but for my purposes it does not seem promising. Update it is nice quality. I just resist hate the electrical is on the bottom however it is raised and the bottom has indented so it is higher. But it just makes me uncomfortable. They do add an additional rubber to it which makes me feel better. I did try the battery. I do think the battery is superior. It just worked really well. No issues. If I ever needed an unplugged one, I may reconsider getting this because of that. But I’m hoping by then they have some upgrades. Upgrade ideas if you are reading : Have it be continuous in that either motion sensor and stay on until they leave. Or at least a longer time after getting a sensor reading. 20 seconds is just too short for me and 42 second ones exist etc. (I’d prefer 60-120seconds tbh). Or the first option would be outstanding. I’d buy those in a heart beat. Also raising the plug in portion maybe on the taller base. Raise it from the ground. Some spillage can occur with either human moving it or cats licking and it spills I like having a tray sit under neath to catch. Scares me if it Filled up etc. that’s why I was looking for pumpless in bowl basin basically (like feelneedy).

For whatever reason both of our cats never liked this. They would first try to drink out of anything else, cups left out, showers, sinks... only if they could not find anything else would they drink from this fountain. We put out a bowl of water and this fountain and constantly had the bowl empty out and the cats would even refuse the drink knowing that we'd eventually fill up the bowl. Just money down the drain. For what it's worth, it was easy to assemble and easy to clean. And the battery would last for days. But neither cat liked it. We even believe one of our cats got sick due to refusing to drink water from this before we starting putting out the bowl.

Worked great, nice and sleek looking and very easy to clean. Can’t speak to battery life because I kept it plugged in. After about two months it suddenly started making a very annoying whistly whirring sound. I took it apart and cleaned it repeatedly, moved it around to different places thinking maybe it had something to do with the surface it was on, nothing worked. I believe the issue is with the internal magnet assembly. I contacted customer service and it took a few days of back and forth. They did not have any suggestions to try to repair. Initially they offered me a 50% refund, I said I wanted a full refund or warranty replacement. After that they refunded me. Maybe I got a dud. If not for the noise issue I would have given 5 stars.
