- Capacity
- 32 cups, or 25 cups with the hopper insert

Petkit EverSweet Max 2 (UVC) Review: Cordless Pump, Honest Limits

Petlibro Granary 2 Vision Review: Is the Camera Worth $60 More?
The Granary 2 Vision adds a 1080p camera and cat recognition to Petlibro's 5 liter feeder for $60 over the base model. Live view is free, but stored video and health tracking cost extra every year.

- Tank
- 5 L
- Camera
- 1080p, night vision, two-way audio

Petkit YumShare Dual-hopper 2 Review: Two Foods, One Bowl, One Catch

Petlibro Dockstream RFID Review: Per-Cat Drinking Data, Collar Required
Petlibro's $99.99 Dockstream RFID tells up to five cats apart by collar tag and logs each one's drinking. It costs only about $10 more than the cordless Dockstream 2, but needs a wall plug, a collar and a short filter schedule.

- Capacity
- 3 L
- Size and weight
- 245 x 200 x 231 mm, 1.6 kg

PetSafe Smart Feed 2nd Gen Review: Does Slow Feed Stop a Gulping Dog?
PetSafe's $134.99 Wi-Fi feeder holds 24 cups and spreads bigger meals over 15 minutes in Slow Feed mode. That helps with gulping, though not as much as the name suggests, and meals of 1/8 cup cannot be slowed at all.
- Price
- $134.99
- Capacity
- 24 cups
- Meals
- Up to 12 a day, 1/8 to 4 cups each

Petlibro One RFID Feeder Review: A Cheap Fix for One Food Thief, Not Many
Petlibro's One RFID feeder costs $149.99 and opens its lid only for a collar tag. But it syncs with a single tag, reads no microchips and closes in one to five seconds, so it beats SureFeed on price only for one protected cat.
- Price
- $149.99
- Recognition
- RFID collar tag only, no microchip, one tag per feeder
- Tank
- 3 L (about 13 cups), dry food 2 to 15 mm

Catit PIXI Smart Fountain Review: Quiet Pump, Patchy App, Monthly Filter
Catit's 2 litre PIXI Smart runs a UV-C light three times a day and an app with filter and low-water alerts. The pump is quiet and the water stays clean, but owners report Wi-Fi pairing trouble and filters every month.
- Price
- About $90 to $120 (GBP 75 on the UK site)
- Capacity
- 2 litres (67.5 fl oz)
- Size and weight
- 8 x 8 x 6.7 in, 1.76 lb
