Specs5.0/10
Page names 304 stainless steel, gives 3.2 L and 7 L sizes with dimensions, dog sizes and wireless battery of 7-12 days, and cleaning steps; no weight, named standard or country of manufacture.
PriceNot scored
Not scored: the price is script-built and could not be read from the page (needs browser read); the $36 filter renewal is the only figure visible.
Returns5.0/10
30 days money-back whether used or not; customer pays return shipping and no prepaid label is provided.
Warranty5.0/10
Lifetime on non-electronic parts but only 6 months on pump, cable, adapter and LEDs; the page headline says lifetime for the fountain.
Upkeep10.0/10
Dishwasher-safe bowl, replacement filters and parts sold, setup steps and a stated 28-day filter interval with weekly rinse.
