The Petnet SmartFeeder is generally unreliable due to frequent connectivity issues and mechanical failures, exacerbated by poor customer support.
Petnet's customer service is reported to be non-existent or ineffective, with numerous reports of no response to emails, social media, or phone calls.
The most common issues include WiFi connectivity problems, frequent outages, motor and hopper failures, and an unresponsive customer support team.
""The service outage has the feeders (2nd gen) show as unconnected, which means that feeding times are locked into whatever it was at the time of the outage. If you were unlucky enough to turn off the feeder before receiving the email, then the feeder does not work at all.""
Due to the overwhelmingly negative feedback and significant issues with functionality and support, the Petnet SmartFeeder is not recommended. Users should consider other, more reliable smart feeders for their pets.
