Ive had mine for about 4 weeks now. I love it! My cats have been drinking so much more water and they seem to be much happier and healthier. And of course less work for me cleaning and refilling multiple times a day like I was doing when I had a regular water bowl. GREAT purchase!
@sn8323 The fountain has a filter system that cleans out all of that stuff. Replacing the water everyday from a 108 ounce water fountain is unnecessary
@toxicredeye2697 I've had it for over a year now and I've had no issues with it. Just gotta remember to change out the filters when it's time to do it and to clean the water reservoir part and the pump every now and then and you'll be good to go! Great purchase!
Something to be aware of with the charcoal filters, they should be pre-rinsed or soaked before being put in, otherwise the charcoal sediment can get into the water (which is harmful). The instructions do give that guidance but sometimes people don't like to read instructions.
I’ve had mine for almost a year and while my cats do love it, it’s quite a bit of work to really keep clean. In the beginning I was just rinsing it with a little soap and water and then changing the filters and filling it up with water(we use spring water) But a few months in I decided to take apart the pump and that’s where I found all the nasty stuff hiding. I was honestly worried I was making my cats sick. It had green mold inside all the nooks and crannies and also brown sludge. It took an hour to clean appropriately. I put new filters and filled it with fresh water and as soon as I plugged it in, tons of white slime started pouring out of the tap. I must’ve loosened all the ick inside and it was hiding in areas I couldn’t see to get to. It was gross. Now I’m paranoid about them drinking moldy water so I deep clean it once a week pulling apart the pump and everything. It seems that that’s what it requires for it to be safe.
Just got one of these today and am sending it back already. The fountain part didn’t fit into the opening. The bottom of it was round and the opening on the lid is oval. Couldn’t get it to go through. Amazon’s already sending me another one. Hoping the new one will have the right part this time. 🤞🏼 Otherwise, it looked like a very nice fountain.
@@trf.product.reviews got the new one today. The first thing I checked was the fountain part. Well, looks like I got the right one this time. Now let’s hope everything else is okay. 🤞🏼 Haven’t had time to put it together yet. But so far so good. 😏
How do you keep dust and similar household debris from falling into it and making the water dirty - as well as from dirt that the pets get into it from their paws when they dip their paws into the water...?
you have to syringe the water into her mouth.. until she gets used to drinking water, you have to force it. no need to syringe alot, just alittle. Or you can feed milk. This is a must. Take to a vet so the tech can show you how to do this. It is essential.
@@trf.product.reviews I'm one of those dolts that didn't read the instructions thoroughly and didn't clean the physical filter for 6 months. The thing stopped working. I pulled it apart a month after it stopped working after watching this video and saw how filthy it was. I just hope it didn't negatively affect my kitties health after 6 months of not cleaning it this way. I did change the filters twice a month and soaked the filters in water for a bout 1 min or two before changing them. I did not know we were supposed to clean the filter this way. 😮💨. Anyway I change my cats' water everyday now and just put it in regular food bowls. I don't mind doing this as long as they have fresh water daily but they just don't have running water to drink from which is what I heard cats like.
Bro you covered the RIGHT things in this review. Sold me on the pump’s suction cups. Now I know the pump sits low and secure. Thanks!

Thanks for sharing!
How do you keep dust and debris out of it? You should be replacing the water just as often as you would in a regular water bowl.

Does it has any problem

100% correct.
how long do you soak them for?
5 minutes
It just arrived today. I can't believe how quiet it is
I love your review and your cat.
Is rellaty a good brand?
Thank you! :) Yes, we love this brand. We have other cat water fountains, and this one is definitely one of the best.

Soak in white vinegar first to break up all the residue. Then another normal soak / rinse until dry.
thanks for your review
Thanks for watching!

Strange....hopefully the new unit isn't like that!

It doesn't prevent it but has a filter to stop it from reaching the tank and will clear the water as the clean water passes through
my cat won't go near mine. its been 3 days and she's not drinking the water. she might die... she's only 4 .. :(

Does it auto shut off if the water gets low?
No, it does not.
They sponsoring you?
We are not sponsored for our videos unless disclosed. I wish they sponsored us!
@@trf.product.reviews looks good. I like the dual spouts. Considering it.

I bought two already. They stop working after 6 months.
What??? Did you clean the motor
Be aware of the mold. Our fountain has to be cleaned twice a week. Pain in the butt.
We clean once a week, probably best to do that with most of them.
If you're not willing to clean it,I'd hate to see your cats litter box.
@@Adeline9418 you really struggle with reading, don’t you.
I wasnt cleaning it at all so I'm going to start doing this
