NPET Cat Water Fountain WF050TP 1.5L Automatic Pet Drinking Fountain with Replacement Faucet Kit（No Adapter

If you have a helper kitty who enjoys hogging the sink when all you want is a cup of coffee then this is for YOU! Our cats love it and so do I. The filters keep the water clean and are easy to replace. So far the only problem is that they enjoy playing with it..... Cats splash....they reach out and slap the stream of water and then furiously lick their paws....chuckle... This water fountain doesn't really keep the boogers out of the sink but it helps to keep them entertained and I like knowing they always have clean, moving water.

I’ve been using the NPET WF050 Cat Water Fountain for over 3 years now, and it’s still running like a charm! This water fountain has been an excellent investment for my cat, keeping her hydrated with fresh, filtered water at all times. The 50oz/1.5L capacity is just the right size for my cat, and the design is sleek and compact enough to fit nicely in any room.What I really appreciate about this fountain is how quiet it is. It’s barely audible, which is perfect for me since I have sensitive ears, and my cat doesn’t get startled by the sound either. The faucet kit adds an extra fun element that my cat enjoys, and she often drinks directly from it.The fountain is easy to clean, and the filters do a good job at keeping the water fresh and clean. I also love the fact that it’s made to be low-maintenance, which saves me time and effort. It’s also surprisingly durable; despite using it daily, it’s still in great condition and continues to work flawlessly.Overall, I highly recommend this water fountain for anyone looking for a quiet, reliable, and long-lasting solution for their pets’ hydration needs. It’s been a game-changer for me and my cat!

I purchased this water fountain quite a while ago. It is working just as well today as the day I received it. Easy to assemble, and easy to clean. Once a week I run a little white vinegar through the unit to remove any calcium buildup, and put in a new filter. The replacement filters are also very affordable.

I have a love-hate relationship with this fountain, but I love it more than hate it. I've had this fountain for close to three years, which I think is long enough to have the clear picture of both the pros and the cons.On the plus side, the pets all love it. All three of the cats and even both small dogs. The cats especially like the running water, and because they like it, the pets do drink more water and stay better hydrated. It also has a nice vibe. It looks good, or at least novel, and the quiet babble of the running water is pleasant. I feel like the pets get cleaner water than they would from a bowl. The clear plastic makes it easy to see the water level at a glance, and day to day refills are really easy, because I just pour water in - except when it's time to clean it.This leads to the downside. When you do need to clean it, it's really kind of a hassle. You have to pry things apart and disassemble stuff just to clean it, and although the parts are pretty cleanly designed overall, there are some nooks and crannies that are harder to clean, and you need a straw/bottle brush for the inside of the fountain tubing. The worst part is cleaning the pump. You have to pry open a little cover to get to the innards and clean them, or eventually it stops working. I had to dig around on the website the first time I had to do this to figure out how. It's kind of a hassle, but it does become more routine after you've done it a few times. Fortunately, I don't need to do it all THAT often. I'm guessing that this is what's actually going on for some of the reviews that complain that the pump stopped working. The pump itself seems well designed and very simple. I would be quite surprised if it gave me any trouble any time soon (except for cleaning).The hassle is enough to bring it down from 5 stars to 4, but it's not bad enough to be a deal breaker, and except for the annoyance of the periodic full cleanings, the pets and I love it.

I bought this to replace a cat fountain I bought years ago that had broken. Previous cats we have owned had kidney issues, and the vet has always recommended encouraging drinking by having a perpetual fountain like this or by leaving a faucet trickling.This fountain is very good overall, here are my pros and cons:Pros:- It is transparent, so you can easily see the water level, and whether the water is "dirty", etc.- It is a simple attractive design, and is small enough that it doesn't get in the way.- The fountain is very quiet. The only time I hear it al all is when the water level gets a little low, and is dripping between the filter and the reservoir. (Or when my cats are noisily lapping at the water.)- The fountain is (mostly) easy to clean. The relatively simple design is pretty much two big sections (top and bottom). The top contains the compartment with the replaceable filter and the spout. The bottom is just the water reservoir and where the small pump is placed/submerged.- The filter is easy to get to, and replacements are easy to obtain. I have also found aftermarket (non-OEM) filters that are cheaper.- The price. This is the correct price point for a fountain like this.- Our cats love it.Cons:- It holds an overall smaller volume of water than I had hoped. It is less a gallon (1.5l = ~.4 gallons,) so it needs to be refilled a bit more frequently. The good news is that it can easily be refilled by (slowly) pouring fresh water in the top. (The filter is a simple gravity feed between the top "bowl" and the lower reservoir, so if it doesn't drain well when refilling, that's a good indicator that filter is dirty and needs to be cleaned or replaced.)- Like any similar fountain, they do need to be dismantled and cleaned periodically. This design is simpler than others I have used, and it is isn't difficult to clean, per se, but it isn't dishwasher safe (at least that isn't recommended by the manufacturer,) so a thorough hand cleaning is necessary. (It can get a little slimy if you let it go too long.) Definitely pay attention to the pump intake and the filter areas.- The only thing that is occasionally finicky is the correct placement of the pump in the lower reservoir. The feed pipe to the spout on top can be a little fussy to align properly when putting it back together.- I am cheap and I manually clean the filters in an effort to reuse them a few times before replacing them. I have tried running it without a filter, which is possible, but it makes it much more likely that dust and pet hair will build up on and block the pump water intake, reducing the flow and potentially shortening the life of the pump itself. Bottom line: Use the filters and thoroughly clean the fountain every couple of weeks.- The pump power cord is USB only, and they do not include a power adapter to plug into an AC wall outlet. This wasn't a big deal for me as I have USB ports in a nearby outlet. Plus, in any modern home, most folks will have extra USB wall adapter laying around, but you will need one to plug it in.- Newer versions of this fountain appear to a water level sensor that helps protect the pump, but if you have the model I have, if the water level gets too low, the pump cannot operate. I thought it had burned out a couple of times, but after a good deep cleaning and rinsing, it has always restored to full flow and quiet operation.Again, overall, I really like the fountain, and would recommend.
