Product Description
There are many Stainless Steel bowls on the market, but none like the Snap’y Fit Bowls. The Snap’y Fit patented system holds the bowl firmly in place and yet, allows easy removal. Pet parents have been frustrated for years with conventional water bowls because pets can dislodge the bowls and spill the food and water. The Snap’y Fit patented system solves this problem. The bowls are available in 10 fl. ounce, 20 fl. ounce, 4 fl. cup & 8 fl. cup (1 and 2 qt.) sizes.

i have a 6.2lbs alaskan klee kai, and this has worked out perfectly with my 30″H midwest wire crate. i was a little hesitant to buy this bowl (10oz) because of some of the dislodging issues some people had, but i decided the pros outweighed the cons. i honestly have no clue how crazy someone’s dog has to be to pull these things out, because i have a hard time sometimes. i believe if your dog is so determined as to getting these out, they must either be a) bored out of their mind or b) hate the crate … so probably isn’t the bowl’s fault, per se. however, compared to some other reviewers, i do not see the difficulty of getting the bowl out as a bad thing. i WANT it to be hard to take out since i would rather my dog not poke their eyes out on the holders. if you have a certain method (i.e., stabilizing the holder and rotating the bowl in has worked for me) to get a water-filled bowl in, it’s really not that hard to get it out or in with water inside. (even if you don’t want to chance it, unscrewing the bowl out isn’t even that hard) they are SNAPPY fit, and if it WASN’T hard to get out, i’d be worried.. so i really don’t understand why people are complaining about that.
anyway, only bad point for me is that i bought the 10oz thinking it would be plenty, but i have since learned that my puppy is a little camel. might buy the 20oz and use the littler bowl in the travel crate. however, this is not something wrong with the product — only a problem with my guesstimation
so five stars all the way. definitely what i was hoping for with crate bowls.
p.s. also, this *reduces* all the water spilled when my dog runs around and tips the bowl. i might get some piddles from her lapping it up messily, but i dont have PUDDLES of water from her tipping a massive bowl. awesome.
Rating: 5 / 5
These bowls are extra sturdy and well-made. The brackets attach easily and very securely to the cage wall and hold the bowls so tightly that my small dog could not possibly dislodge them.
Mine is set up with the Midwest Quiet Time Pet Bed, Fleece, 24″ x 18″ in the Midwest Life Stages Single-Door Folding Metal Dog Crate, 24″L x 18″W x 21″H.
The only negative is that the bowls are quite difficult to replace in the brackets without spilling the contents. No problem if they are placed so that they may be refilled easily without removing the bowls. – Not enough of a problem for me to lower my rating.
My dog is very comfortable in this setup for daytime naps and for his overnight bed. I always place all his food and water in these bowls.
A great price and quick delivery through Amazon with FREE Super Saver Shipping.
