Drinkwell Pet Fountain

Weeks ago we ordered the Drinkwell Original Pet Fountain as a watering solution for our cat, whose health condition requires that he take in a lot of water.  At first, we selected this item for the similarity to a running faucet, which both cats enjoy drinking from.  We expected noise, and had used an electric pet fountain before, but this product is far and away the best we've ever used.
For starters, the entire fountain comes apart easily, and is top shelf dishwasher safe.  There are no complicated instructions or special tools required for cleaning, though I understand there are a set of cleaning brushes sold by the company.  The assembly is simple and quick, and refilling the fountain is as easy as dumping a glass of water into the bottom well.  There are even two slots in the back that you can slide the electric cord through to prevent wobbling.  Turning it on is just a matter of plugging it into the wall socket.

The only issues we've had is that the fountain will make small "gush, gush" noises if the water level falls below the flow rate switch, and we may not notice the sound until the fountain is scaring the cats with the strange sound.  Still, it's less annoying than a chiming sound would be, and we'd never notice a lighted indicator if we weren't in the room, so I suppose it's for the best.

We've had this for about 3 mo. now and it works great! I have 3 small dogs and 4 cats. All of them like/use it, so much so that I have bought another similar fountain for our bedroom<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Pioneer-Pet-Peaceful-Waters-Ceramic-Drinking-Fountain/dp/B00B28WGOC/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Pioneer Pet Peaceful Waters Ceramic Drinking Fountain</a>. The Pagoda is easy to take apart and clean and the 2 filters do well at keeping it clean with all the pets using it. I'll let you know how the other one works out in a couple months.

This is a great product.  My 2 little papillons and my 2 somali kittens just love to drink from the fountain.  One of the kittens enjoys drinking from where the water starts to flow.  It is easy to take apart to clean weekly.  I also use distilled water which is safe for drinking and keeps the parts from becomming scummy.  This is my 2nd fountain.

Great for 1 dog and 2 cats.
Make sure to rinse the filter out before putting it in the fountain.

My cat and dog love this and went to it right away. It is quite and like the design very much. Wanted a more hip modern looking fountain for my pets. Went with this shape because of the features and the flat back allows it to sit snug up against wall.  Nice that it comes assembled and easy to plug in and use right away. Will be getting another one for lake house.

The Drinkwell 360 fountain is as promised.  I had bought a less expensive plastic water fountain a few weeks before.  The item was defective and would only work for the initial few minutes after plugging it in and after 2 days of plugging in and unplugging I gave up.  I took it back and looked to see what was available on line.  A friend suggested stainless steel because they are healthier for your pet.  I found Drinkwell 360. It was a bit more expensive but since it was stainless steel, I thought worth the price.  After putting it together I filled it with water, set it in it's place and waited to see how curious the 3 cats would be.  Immediately the male was "all over it".  He "chewed" the water out of the top sprayer he put his paws in it and he was hooked.  My oldest female was finally allowed in and after the initial paw test and face in the fountain portion she was hooked also.  The third female was more hesitate, but she is that way with everything.  After a day or two she quit using the plain bowl of water and used the fountain also.  The cats love it.  They do seem to be drinking more water, as the litter box shows.  One thing you should pay attention to is that the bowl size is a little over 12 inches around.  It takes up far more space than the 2 water bowls I was previously using.  However, since they are drinking more water, I can live with that.  Also you need an electric socket no farther than 4 or 5 feet away, the cord is long but in older homes your sockets may not be as close to the floor.  I was in a kitchen remodel so the electrician put a new socket a foot off the floor for me. The motor gives off a soft hum and shouldn't bother anyone except those with super sensitive ears.  The water trickling down the inner cone also is soothing as if we had a small water fall in the house.  I follow the instructions for cleaning once a week.  I am a pro now at dis-assembling and re-assembling the fountain now.  Please note that the 3 plastic clips used to hold the central cone in place are not as pliable as you would think, but that's to ensure the cone covering the pump and fountain pieces stays in place.  So when you remove them for cleaning they are a bit time consuming to remove.  Because of the regular cleanings, I ordered a few replacement parts directly from Drinkwell for "just in case" purposes.  They shipped them promptly and shipped the items in a small box well wrapped and put the small box in a larger box for further safety.  I sent an inquiry e-mail about the fountain and their representative was prompt in answering and gave me the answers I needed.  I really recommend this company and their product.  Note I think dogs will love this fountain too.  The small dogs this one and if there is a larger sized one, the big dogs will too.

We have two drinkwell fountains and they are more preferred my our animals then the slope or slide style. The units are made from durable plastic and have protective cord covers as well as cheap filters. I would choose these over any of the generic pet brands you see. The motors on these units can be a bit louder than normal but they do not wear out like the others or heat up the water.

This is my second Drinkwell Big-Dog Pet fountain.  The first one lasted 6 years and probably would have lasted much longer if I would not have left it on when we went on vacation and let the water level get too low which burned out the pump.  I love this bowl for my two Great Danes.  Easy to clean, Easy to fill.  One dog likes the fountain water while the other one drinks out of the bowl.  The cat even sneaks up there every now and then to take a sip.  Great product.

I think every great pet lover should buy the Drinkwell Pet Fountain.  You should buy the 70 oz. reservior so that when you go on vacation your pet will have plenty of water.  I was gone for a week and the extra 70 oz. held up while I was gone.  I had bought my first Pet Fountain from a Pet store and paid alot more for it.  When it gave out ,  I went to Amazon and they got me ALOT better price.  I would highly suggest you love your pet enough to give him (or her) the best and buy this product to show you care !!!

My Mom's cat needed to drink more water because she was having UTIs. So I bought my mom the Drinkwell water fountain.  The fountain was loud so her cat wouldn't go near it.  So then I bought the Cat it fountain her cat immediately loved it.

I took the Drinkwell for my cats.  I found it to be a problem for keeping it filled and cleaning.  I also noticed only two of my cats would even approach it (I had six at the time).  Long story short I bought another Cat it and not only do my cats love it but so does the dogs.  I set the Drinkwell in the kitchen and the Cat It upstairs and I noticed they all go up stairs for the water (my vet recommends water and food on every level of a multi cat house).  Cleaning it is a snap and filling it is no problem.  I have had the Cat it fountain over a year and was not able to find it in stores nearby.  But now that I know it is available on Amazon I will be ordering it.  I will get rid of the Drinkwell all together.

This is the second drinkwell 360 that I have purchased on Amazon.  I recently tried that Catit fountain.  My cats and my maltese would not have anything to do with it.  I guess I am going to have to throw it in the garbage.  They LOVE this fountain. IT provides clean flowing water for your pets and the fresh clean water entices them to drink more  I love the one gallon capacity too.  It comes with 4 different pieces to choose for the top .  My favorite one is the 6 stream piece.  The set up process takes about two minutes. you just rinse the pieces off and put them together, fill it up with water and plug it in. My other Drinkwell 360 is the stainless steel model.  Both are fantastic.  If you want a great pet fountain without breaking the bank, this is the fountain to get for sure.

Very handy for cleaning the nooks and crannies of the Drinkwell pet fountains.

I'd been considering a pet water filtration system for some time but wasn't keen on any particular product out there until I stumbled across the Drinkwell Hy-drate unit. I LOVE it! This product is perfect for me because it has allowed me to continue using my pet's same water bowl which I prefer because it is stainless steel (antimicrobial). The Hy-drate unit sits securely inside the bowl via suction cups and provides a continuous filtered stream of water for my pet to drink. I wasn't sure if she would take to it immediately given that she wasn't accustomed to moving water but there was no problem whatsoever. I unplug the unit at night when it's not in use.

I bought this fountain because it was recommended by a friend who has been using the Cat Mate Fountain trouble free for the last few years. I was also attracted to it because of the 3-year warranty which seemed better then most of the others. I had previously had a different branded fountain that would periodically flood the kitchen floor so I was a little reluctant to get another fountain but the Cat Mate Pet Fountain is working great.  It is quiet and the cats like it and are drinking out of all the levels. The filter works at keeping the water clean and its easy to take apart and clean. I did buy a brush set for thorough cleaning but so far a quick cleaning with a sponge and dish soap has been all that has been needed. My only suggestion to the manufacturer would be the power cord color. The entire unit is a nice clean white plastic but the power cord is black which stands out in my kitchen.

I got this to replace my CatMate plastic pet fountain. I have a yorkie dog, so he may have been fine with the smaller teardrop design fountain, but some of the reviews were iffy regarding the easy dislodging of the internal fountain part, so I went with the Big Max version.

It was a good decision! The fountain looks great, and is very easy to clean. I can toss the metal parts in the dishwasher, and the plastic pump housing & filter is one single piece that I can rinse off in the sink.

There are two main stainless steel parts: the fountain/ramp, and the large drinking bowl. The bowl is just that- it's just a bowl. The fountain part simply sits inside of the bowl, hooking onto a post in the rear. You can angle the ramp any way in the bowl: straight forward, or to the left or right, to create a sort of 'whirlpool,' if you will.

Underneath the fountain piece is a plastic clamshell-looking part. This houses the pump + filter.

Overall, this fountain holds a lot of water--for my small dog, it will probably have to be cleaned before he even finishes all of the water, but I'd rather have extra in these summer days, than not enough for him to drink during the day.
