I travel a lot and have a Senior cat so it’s important that she be able so self feed without over eating. This feeder solves my problem. It’s noiseless (no motor sound) and I love that I’m able to control how much food it dispenses and when.   It’s super easy to program and the lid is clear so you can see when it needs to be refilled. The lid locks on so I feel like it keeps the food a little fresher.  I do wish there was an option to have a metal bowl. This is a great product! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
