SureFeed Stay Fresh Pet Bowl: Review
Keeping your pets food as fresh as possible can be a hard task, I mean it is great if they eat it all in one go, but many like to come and go as they please, helping themselves when their bellies fancy a nibble. That means the food is left open to the air as the day goes on, attracting all those annoying flies and as such isn’t as fresh as it was when it was first put out, which can be worrying. If this is a situation you are used to yourself, then the SureFeed pet bowl is perhaps the answer you have been waiting for.
SureFeed pet bowl is a special bowl that opens when your pet is near and closes when they go away, thanks to a clever sensor around the bowls edges (so no need for microchips in collars). If you are worried that your pet won’t know what to do with the bowl, then you will be glad to hear it comes with a training mode that allows your pet to get used to the lid movement at their own pace.
For instance, you can start with it being completely open while they first get used to it, then little by little you add in lid movement, have it just 1/4 shut, then 1/2, before moving onto the full open and shut setting. Isn’t it clever!
The bowl of course uses a motor, so there is some noise from the lid movement, however it isn’t too loud, I was actually personally pleasantly surprised by how quiet it was. The bowls are removable for washing and you while it comes with the grey coloured one, you can buy a whole host of extras in different colours.
To work it needs 4 x C batteries which aren’t included. While to the back of the bowl there are a number of switches which, thankfully, includes a battery indicator so you can tell when it is starting to run low as well as buttons to open and close the lid as well as set it into training mode.
So what did Sally think?
Well to be honest she is still getting used to it and I think perhaps it would be better suited to a cat or dog that eats wet food rather than dry. However, with that said it does allow us a bit more peace of mind, when we are going out for the day, that her food will be kept as fresh as possible.
Overall if you are in a household where you do go out often or you are worried about how fresh your pet’s food is staying, then looking into buying a SureFeed Pet Bowl might well be a good idea.

This is a very intelligent way to not let pet food go to waste. I love how it keeps you from forgetting
We have an adorable cat which could really use this pet bowl. I like that we can save a lot on food because this will help keep it fresh! It’s an awesome product!
Sounds like a great product to keep pet food fresh! I would love to get something like this for my dog.
What a fantastic concept. We dislike eating food that is not fresh so why do our pets have to eat food that isn’t fresh, this sounds perfect.
This looks pretty neat! My dogs would love this!
I wish I had known there was such a bowl when we still had our dog JayR with us. I would have bought him one and made sure he eats fresher food.
I’m pretty sure my fur baby will love this pet bowl . As she always wants fresh food on her bowl. She is so sweet and deserve to be love!
It is really good – you can swap the bowl for a two part dish as well, if it helped. x
I locve this covered bowl container for dogs. Aside from their food staying fresh, bugs can’t get to it also.
No way I need this!!!! I have a 3.5lb yorkie and his food is eaten very slowly so it gets stale. Thanks for sharing
Aww bless I bet he is a cutie – I hope it helps out with the food problem 🙂 X
I wish this was around when I had my cat Tilly. She never overate and only ate when she hungry so I left her dry food out all day. I will have to get this for my next pet it looks awesome.
This is a genius idea! I will share this with my friend who has a dog!
This looks so great! I have a dog that would like it!
Oh that’s a great idea. My dog takes his time eating so keeping food fresh is important to us.
I’m not sure my dog would ever agree with this new contraption. Please follow up and let us know if you dog ever gets used to using from this.
I’ve been looking for something to help our pup’s food stay fresh, more so when we go out and come back late in the day. We find that ants have taken over.
I so need one well two. I just adopted two pups!
Ooohh I could really use one of these for Yoda! H x
What a great idea! Our dog Molly would love this type of bowl. Sometimes her food looks disgusting by the end of the day.
It is fantastic for that – it’s all well and good if your pet eats it in one go but leaving it around yuck! x
This sounds like a great bowl to help pets food stay fresh. I know that fresh food is the best way for them to enjoy their food.
This looks like an awesome way to keep the food fresh. I never really understood how dogs could just eat out of a bowl that had been sitting there for hours.
My dog would love this. You know once he got the hang of it 😉
what a great invention. Not sure my dog would know what to do. But I suppose eventually he would.
I have 5 SureFeed feeders for my 5 indoor cats. I use them because there are 4 different diets and 2-3 grazers who like to munch all day. 4 cats get kibble only and one gets a kibble-wet combo. These have calmed our twice daily feedings with no more swirling around another cat’s bowl, barging in to eat kibble that is not allowed. Training was easy, even our flightiest boy learned how to use it. These are not recommended for outdoor use–they do have electronics and don’t appear to be weathertight. Highly, highly recommend and the customer service is top notch.
I like how it’s perfect for animals with different feeding tendencies. I need to try them!
This seems like such a good idea! My cat is a picker and I do worry about leaving food out as I have an almighty fear of pests so knowing it’s only going to be ‘open’ when he goes. I was worried as first he would hate the idea of the door opening but the ‘training’ part to get them used to it sounds genius! xx
This is really good, it’s important to make sure that your pet’s food is still fresh by the time they eat it. I would love to try this product!
