"Finally, a water fountain for pets that sterilizes the water! This water purifier and fountain is nicely made, with a water screw instead of a pump, which I like much better, much less easy to break. It is very easy to clean, a HUGE plus!! I wish it was a bit less noisy, but it is not too bad."

"Product has a very poor design, and did not work for more than five minutes. The fan blade works itself loose after a couple of minutes, the waterlift assembly will not seal and fit into base securely. A complete waste of time and money."

Bottom Line

While it has a good design, this product has serious issues with its water pump and durability. This can make it unreliable and frustrating.
