PETLIBRO Replacement Filters for Dockstream Cat Water Fountain PLWF106/PLWF116/PLWF115/PLWF105/PLWF005, 4 Months Set of Replacement Filters for Ultra Quiet Cat Fountain, 8 Count for Pet Water Fountain

Love this fountain! I’ve had one for over a year now, nervous to write a review until I made it through a major milestone. Mine is functioning as though it were new and I’ve now purchased one as a gift for my father’s newest family member. First — it is completely silent. The manufacturer clearly considered this in every aspect of design and it shows. It is super stable, easily movable, and all of the kitties love the fresh water, adjusting to the system immediately. I foster kitties so lots of little whiskers have given their opinions over the last year and some have been very clear — refusing to drink from anything else even though a bowl is always available. I love that it’s chargeable and therefore you can put it virtually anywhere around the house. A charge lasts me about 4-6 weeks and I change the filter whenever I charge the unit. I normally top up the water once every 7-10 days making this exceptionally easy to maintain for the ever-busy lifestyle. If you live in an area with hard water, I *strongly* recommend using distilled or other filtered/bottled water to extend appliance life and eliminate or reduce mineral deposits. My dad uses tap water from the refrigerator door and he is changing his filter weekly and cleaning the overall unit much more often than I need to. Fortunately the stainless steel bowl is super easy to clean and much more hygienic than plastic and other materials.

I’m going to be honest, I didn’t think I was going to like this fountain, but the wireless pump drew me in enough to try it. I’ve had numerous fountains - different brands, different materials - over the past 10 years. Some were more expensive than this one, some were less expensive. So, as I write this review, I’m using the experiences I’ve had with ALL of those fountains for my comparison, and I’ve had the PetLibro for about 2 months now. FIRST: Set up - The set up of this fountain is SUPER simple. The instructions are clear, but you really don’t even need them. Everything is intuitive, and the fountain really only fits together one way. You can’t even put the motor in backwards thanks to the notched design that makes it fit neatly in the bowl. SECOND: Operation - Full disclosure, I’ve only used the constantly on function, so I can only speak to that. It stays plugged in, so I don’t use the cordless function, though I do like that it’s an option. The water flow is excellent, and it is very quiet. The lack of a window to monitor water level is what kept me from purchasing this sooner. I didn’t think the the red light that notifies you when the water level is low would be noticeable enough, but it really is. And surprisingly, the motor shut off when the level is too low actually works. When operating, the fountain is VERY quiet. I don’t hear any motor sound at all, and very little water sound. Refilling is quite simple - you can remove the bowl from the base, remove the top and fill it per the instructions. I know the instructions say not to just top off the water by adding from the top, but honestly, as long as you don’t overfill, I don’t see why you can’t do that in a pinch. I have four small dogs, so we have to refill at least once a day, and it doesn’t need to be rinsed out every day, so I do sometimes just top off. THIRD - and this is the kicker - CLEANING: The one thing that has always been painful about pet fountains for me is the cleaning. The taking apart and putting back together. We have always had at least two fountains, and with some of the fountains we’ve had, cleaning them was a chore. Lots of parts to take apart, clean, replace the filter and put back together. This fountain is SO easy to clean. Fewer parts, easy to put back together, and because of the wireless motor, so much easier to clean without worrying about the power end of a cord getting wet while you’re struggling to take the motor apart for cleaning. This fountain cuts the cleaning time in half at least, and because of the ease of cleaning, I’ve been much better about cleaning more frequently (every two weeks as recommended). For some reason, this fountain also doesn’t seem to get as gross as other fountains I’ve had get. FOURTH - Expense - The replacement filters for this are no more expensive than the filters for other fountains, and you can get them auto shipped, which is nice so you don’t run out or have to remember to re-order. They are smaller than most of the other fountains filters I’ve used as well. I’ve been surprisingly impressed with this fountain, and have replaced two of my three fountains with the PetLibro so far. When that third (least used) fountain dies, it will be replaced with a PetLibro.

I love this water fountain for my 2 cats. They took to it immediately without a problem. Love the wireless feature as one of my cats likes to chew on wires. battery last a long time. Fountain has no leakage and is virtually noiseless. Worth every dollar. Love the stainless steel bowl, stays clean. One minor detail, I wish there was a splash guard available to purchase for any of the fountains as an accessory or wish it would’ve been part of the package as 1 of my cats tends to make a watery mess by drinking from the back of the bowl. Or maybe make the water bowl deeper for better use by cats.

This has been the best pet fountain I have ever used. It is genuinely whisper quiet, only making noise as the water level starts to get low. It held water for my one cat for roughly a week before needing to be cleaned and refilled, which is a huge plus over other alternatives I’ve used in the past. The only thing I can’t speak on is the wireless motion-activated mode. I haven’t used it. The pump and other pieces of the fountain are extremely easy to service and maintain, and the wireless pump design saves so much hassle when it comes to cleaning and refilling the reservoir. Seriously, why is this the first time I’ve seen this design? No other fountain I’ve used has even come close to this one. I’ve always had pumps die randomly, bacteria problems, and they were a complete pain to take apart and clean. This fountain solves all of that. Seriously, this thing is perfect. Buy it. It will change you and your pet’s life.

Love it. Good value for money.

you get your value out of your money, works well. cats love the fountain

Great and needed piece obviously but too expensive They are taking the p**** with their prices as you need to use a lot of filters so very costly

Love that the pump is cordless as cords in water fountains tend to get slimy easily. Very quiet especially when it's on the bubbling mode. One minus point is the filter cover is very hard to remove. Had to pull it open with quite a bit of force and I was afraid of breaking it! Petlibto should look into improving the design of the filter cover

Hi, I wasn't aware I could have this refunded after use. My cats constantly tip it over, yet the round one I had never got tipped over. I only wanted this one because it can be used with no electric cord. So I bought a big pot $60 to make sure they can't tip it over, forgetting it needs to have the sensors visible to work. So now it's plugged back in and a total waste of the cost of the fountain and pots and plants. Please contact me if this can be refunded as it is useless to me.
