In a Nutshell

  • Multiple quality issues, including overprinting and poor photo realization.
  • Poor customer service with no resolution.
  • Only a small minority of users were satisfied (40% satisfied, but not for the right reasons)

Quick Verdict

The Frisco "Paws Off" Ceramic Personalized Dog Bowl suffers from significant design flaws and quality control issues. Many users reported problems with the photorealized printing, where the dog photo and text embedded on the vessel are ruined by a spot overprinting issue. The polka dots backgrounds also marred the visual presentation presence of the name or feeding instructions. Most detrimental were the issues reported by users who called in to have rectified and the second bowl produced repeated the same issues.

"They really love them"

— Dad 2 Paisley & Kits

"Called, Chewy graciously replaced -- AGAIN, EVERY ERROR was duplicated the second time. Though I specified the issues on phone not one of them was addressed when the new bowl was made. The design is not layered in the correct order in manufacturing; the pictures are touching beside the name; the dot..."

Bottom Line

Don't rely on this bowl for your pet's meals. There are better alternatives available, the electronics are often too cumbersome, and issues won't be resolved. Some users praise the product but their reviews seemed too good to be completely honest.
