Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of 2PK Pet Fountain Filter
Customer Review: My cat EATS them
Summary: 3 Stars
He pulls them out of the hole where the water comes out of and eats off the white cotton stuff. They work for filtering, but if you have a numb cat like me, get the thin black style (the ones that come with the petmate fountain) without the cotton cover.Customer Review: filter
Summary: 3 Stars
Great product, but since they decided to send it separate from everything else, the shipping cost more than the product itself. SO not cool.Customer Review: Fresh Flow Filter Replacements
Summary: 2 Stars
I don't think they do a very good job because there are always little specks floating in the bowl that do not seem to be filtered out.
Warning: If you are buying for the first time, BE SURE to run cold water over the filters before putting them in your cat fountain. Otherwise, your water will become very dirty with charcoal.
Customer Review: The Drinkwell Platinum and its filters are designed so much better
Summary: 1 Stars
We previously we had this model (the Petmate Deluxe Fresh Flow) for about 2 years. The motor ran well and it never broke, so I gave the fountain itself a review of 2 stars. But these filters are terrible in comparison to the design of the Drinkwell Platinum fountain. Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain and Drinkwell Premium Replacement Filter Cartridges (3-Pack)
The newer Drinkwell's filters are designed SO much better (6 tightly divided coal sections). The fabric used in the Petmate's filter loosely holds the coal and so the coal clumps down at the bottom. The water easily flows up and over the coal, and does not get filtered (I believe the coal is divided into 2 sections... its been a couple of weeks since I tossed the whole product).
I would recommend paying the extra $20 and going for the Drinkwell Platinum and staying away from this old model and its poorly designed filters.
Customer Review: Found Live Worms in Charcoal !!!
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought these filters and found live black worms about 1/4 inch long! The worms appeared in about a week and were clinging to the filter. I bought multiple packs, as I have more than 1 fountain and all the filters got the worms. The worms appeared in about a week. The filters are replaced regularly and even more frequently in warm weather. My cats are indoor cats and fed the best of the best food, so I know for sure the worms were in the charcoal. If you use these filters place them in boiled water for a few minutes, rinse them with hydrogen peroxide and rinse with fresh water again, also complain directly to the company! 1-877-PETMATE (1-877-738-6283) customer service.
