Review: The Goldilocks of Stainless Steel Cat Food Bowls - There are pet bowls available on desertcart in every shape, size, color, and material. I've tried several different stainless steel pet bowls on desertcart, and I feel this one is perfect. -I don't like gravity feeders because they're typically made of plastic, which harbors bacteria in the scratch marks that a cleaning brush creates. -I don't like ceramic bowls because they're easily breakable. -I don't like painted/colored bowls because they will eventually wear away. -I don't like bowls with bonded rubber rings on the bottom because they degrade and wear away. -And I don't like most other pet bowls because they're too small or too large for my needs. I have a 12.5 lb cat who my vet says is extremely health and at his ideal weight. I feed him 100% canned wet food and he actually prefers it when I add a little extra water to mix into it because he loves all the moisture from his meal. Considering that, this pet bowl is sized just right. The brushed stainless steel is very attractive, and the bowls feel the perfect thickness and very sturdy. It truly feels like a bowl that will last the rest of your lifetime. These bowls are very easy to clean after soaking in water for a couple hours (the residue from the wet food dries out and hardens a little, this is unavoidable, so soaking the bowl first makes them a breeze to clean. I don't use them in a dishwasher). ------------------------- My Official Pros/Cons List for this Stainless Steel Pet Food Bowl is: Pros: -Great size, not too big, not too small -Great thickness, feels high quality -Great brushed metal look on the top -Great shape, avoids "whisker-fatigue" Cons: -Not really a con, but it works best with a silicone mat. Most people use some type of mat anyways to catch food/water. ---- Conclusion: Overall I love this bowl. It works perfect for my needs. I have a strong preference for stainless steel because it's such good-looking and rugged material, it will last the rest of my life. I will post some pictures too! ------------------- UPDATE: After 6 months of using these daily I still absolutely love them, and I have no regrets whatsoever purchasing them!! ------------------- More information: In looking for an ideal cat food bowl I've worried about "whisker fatigue" (I've seen it affect certain cats, not pleasant), so I wanted a bowl that is both big enough to hold this food, but shallow enough that my cat enjoys using it. This pet dish is shaped perfectly for that. The previous bowl I was using was a Durapet 8oz stainless steel cat bowl (I included pictures of it included with my review). I saw it in Petco when I was there and decided to buy a couple since they were only $5 each. While they are shallow like I wanted, I've realized that they are too small to fit the cat food inside it comfortably. It's marketed as an 8 oz bowl, and when filling it with water it indeed can fit exactly 8oz. In contrast, this PetFusion bowl is marketed as a 13oz bowl, and when filling it with water it actually exceeds that--it fits 16oz of water. A big point I'd like to bring up is that the Durapet bowls (like many others) have a rubber ring bonded to the bottom. It's meant to reduce skidding, by increasing the grip between the bowl and the floor. However, I've realized I would rather buy a bowl that doesn't have this. The rubber bonding will inevitably wear away, looking terrible in the process, and creating areas for bacteria and grime to get caught in. A much better solution is to just buy a silicone pet food mat and place normal stainless steel bowls on it. When you use a silicone mat any normal stainless steel bowl will work perfectly with it. The friction between the bowl and the mat means that it won't move around when being used or pushed. This has the same non-skidding features as a bowl with rubber beneath it. Just search on desertcart "silicone pet food mat", there are many for sale. I bought a grey one that I love. It's made out of food grade silicone, bpa free, and says that it has "no open pores to harbor bacteria." It is also "odor and stain resistant." I'll put a link to the one I bought, right after the Summary. ------------------- The food mat I use: mDesign Silicone Pet Food & Water Bowl Feeding Mat for Cats - 16" x 8", Small, Gray ------------------- In case anyone comments about feeding wet food, I'd like to clear up some misconceptions. Cats have a low thirst drive and instinctually seek to get their water from their meal. Dry cat food is painfully dry at about 10% moisture, while a cat's meal in the wild is ~70% moisture (a small animal body filled with blood, organs, and moist muscles). The prevalence of dry cat food contributes to UTI, kidney issues, blocked urinary tract (a life-threatening emergency), diabetes, and other health issues as well. To contrast, Wet cat food is also ~70% moisture. This means it is much closer to a species-appropriate diet than dry cat food. Studies show that even when adding together all sources of water (from food and water bowl), a cat on a wet food diet consumes double the amount of water of a cat on a dry food diet. This is extremely important to understand. Dry cat food also has a lot of other things wrong with it which makes it species-inappropriate, and very unhealthy. In addition to the insufficient moisture content which leads to chronic low-level dehydration, there's an excessively high amount of carbohydrates in dry cat food (30%+) when cats in the wild consume like 4% carbs. This wreaks havok on their bodies over the long term. My vet says it's also a complete myth that wet food is "bad" for their teeth, or that dry food is somehow "good" for their teeth.. Their teeth are pointed and are designed for tearing and swallowing, not grinding things to a pulp like ours are. Also, they swallow most cat food whole, and its so brittle that whatever they do chew just breaks in half and is swallowed. If you are interested, check out catinfo.org. It is one of the top recommended sites by veterinarians for learning about cat diets, and why virtually any canned wet food is better than virtually any dry cat food. Even 10 minutes of reading on this site will make you a much better informed cat owner. At the very top of the page on catinfo.org there is a 4 page pdf for you to read, to summarize everything quickly. It's at least worth the time to read those 4 pages! Alright, take care!!!
Review: The perfect cat food bowl, after trying many others! - The problems with my existing "stainless" bowls (the Durapet from PetSmart) have been (1) the cats lick the food into the right-angle corner and can't get the last bits out and (2) not convinced those are solid stainless, I've had the stainless coating taken off before by lime-a-way once (hard water deposits). Plus (3), a problem I didn't know I had until now, harder to clean. I bought some "stepped" stainless cat food bowls to try, with many stepped ridges on the side, but those were even worse to clean! Several levels of dried-on food and no way to fill them with water to soak. So I tried these PetFusion bowls largely based on the "goldilocks of bowls" review. That parson is 100% correct! The slightly angled sides solve the corner problem. The cats can get the last bits of food out of the corners now. Something about the finish on these is making them extremely easy to clean! I didn't see that coming. I'm used to having to fill the Durapet bowls with water and let them soak a couple of hours to loosen dried food. With these just like 10 minutes does it, if even needed at all. With these I can usually wipe most of the dried food right off! I was worried they would be too big at 13 oz, but not so at all. Perfect size. I'm using GatGuru silicon mats under them. I'm sure it helps with the whisker stress thing, but that isn't one of my priorities here. The wider lips are GREAT for helping pick these bowls up and hold them, especially with carpal tunnel here. I've since bought 8 more of these bowls to replace all of the other cat food bowls that I've been using. These bowls are lighter than the Durapet, but very solid and sturdy. No issues there. I haven't had any sliding problems either, on the silicon mats (or off, tile floor, they have been working great on that too). Haha I'm trying to think of something negative about them just to be objective, but I seriously can't think of a single thing. :P

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Attractive, Easy to Clean, Well Made Dog Bowl
*by D***S on July 24, 2020*

This review is for the large 56 oz. bowl. I find this to be an attractive, sturdy and easy to clean 304 stainless steel dog bowl that has a brushed steel interior surface and polished exterior. Eight Labrador Retrievers over the past 40 years or so and the one I have now is the only dog that pushes his food bowl around while he's eating. Some may see this as a bad thing but this dog is one that given the opportunity would inhale his food. Chasing after his bowl helps to slow down his eating - a good thing. Back in the day most if not all the stainless steel dog bowls I bought were manufactured in India, but today it's China. Like a lot other people I'm concerned for a whole host of reasons about our overwhelming dependence on China's manufacturing of almost everything. I found some made in the USA bowls sold here on Amazon and the equivalent size bowl was more than twice the cost of this one. Even though I'm retired on a fixed and limited income I might have gone that route except the only option is to purchase two bowls which is one more than I needed and at 4 1/2 times the cost of this one bowl.
