SPOT by Ethical Products – Ceramic Stoneware Pet Bowl for Cats and Small Dogs,Classic Heavy Duty Non Slip Ceramic Cat Dish Dog Bowls for Food and Water

This is a nice sturdy crock of a bowl. I usually use stainless steel bowls but my newest cat (a Munchkin) was putting her front feet up on the side of the taller bowl and it would start to tip with her when the water level was lower. This crock is heavy enough (even when empty) that it doesn't tip over or spill with her... and she doesn't need to put her feet on it to reach it. It's pretty, heavy, and easy to clean and looks as good now as when I ordered it months ago. Unless I drop it while cleaning, it should last a lifetime and since it's heavier, I don't see any spilling because it doesn't move when the cats try to pull it with their paw like they sometimes do.

Big improvement over my trusty stainless steel bowls, since my now-blind senior dog can't accidentally tip them over. The sides are straight, and the ceramic is heavy enough not to slide around (they're on a mat) when she eats/drinks. Easy to clean, and can be put into the dishwasher. Note that the bowl will heat up in the microwave...but I only heat my 5" bowl for 10 seconds so it's not an issue. (yes, my Pom doesn't like her food cold from the fridge)

This bowl is absolutely perfect. My boy throws everything around, has knocked over every water bowl I’ve used. Not this one! The design is perfect, while it is somewhat shallow, it holds plenty of water as it is almost the size of a dinner plate. Highly recommend!

Impressive quality bowl. When they say "heavy duty", it's no exaggeration. It's thick ceramic with a nice glaze. It weighs about 3 1/2 pounds, and is not going to move, even with a big dog trying to nudge it. I have a herd of cats, and they could stand on the edge, without tipping it. For the time being, I'm using it for kibble.

Wanted a bowl that was well made and would withstand my dog. He has a tendency to push other light weight bowls all over the floor. This is just the right size, weight and construction I wanted. Easy to clean

We’re using this for a ground-level bee and butterfly watering station (yellow float added), and seems to be working. I appreciate that the dish is heavy, so it cannot be easily tipped over. I’ve also seen a kitty neighbor or two use it, so bonus! Great value, quality, and water capacity. I reckon this would also work well for dogs of many sizes as well (our 15lb chi-errier pup is also pictured for comparison), although you would want a smaller floating landing pad.

We have two large Goldens who will slide ordinary stainless steel bowls all over the kitchen during meal times trying to get every last bit of food from out of the corners. So I was looking for a sturdy, heavy-weighted bowl that was large enough to hold a reasonable amount of raw food for a large dog. The standard large SS bowls typically hold 2-1/2 qts by volume (that would be filled to the rim, which nobody actually does for obvious reasons). The info I was looking for was weight and inside dimensions for comparisons as well as volume. This info is not clear for this bowl so I'd like to give a straight forward answer to anybody who needs this info... the largest size measures 9" inside diameter (the advertised outside diameter is 9.5" but really no one cares about outside dimensions, am I right? After all you're surely not going to purchase this stoneware bowl to fit inside of a raised feeder, there's no lip on the thing), and the inside height measurement is 2". How does this compare to a typical large SS bowl? Most usually measure 8" inside diameter and 2-1/2" inside height. Now for what's really important it holds a standard volume of 2-1/2 qts filled to the rim. Exactly equivalent to a large SS bowl. The optical illusion is that it doesn't hold as much is because it is wider and lower than the SS bowl plus the bottom is slightly raised and concave. Fear not however as I've used a measuring cup to exactly determine the volume so if a SS bowl has enough volume for you, so will this large bowl. As for the weight... as you would expect it is heavy... like 3-lbs 5 ounces as compare to a cheap large SS bowl which usually weighs around 5 ounces with a better thicker heavy gauge steel one maybe reaching twice that weight. Our dogs no longer move the bowls at meal times regardless of how tasty the stuff in the corners are. And speaking of corners these bowls have very high steep angles with a small radius, oh I would have preferred a swallow radius however you can't always get everything you want. Still the dogs do not have a problem getting their tongues into those corners and in fact it is made much easier for them since the bowl does not slide away. Durable and easy to clean. Now for the down sides... very HEAVY, will shatter if dropped (one bowl arrived broken in the box and so had to be replaced) and remember its stoneware so the edge on the bottom will likely scratch countertops and flooring if slid around without a mat of some sort below. Bottom line is, for us, these were what we were looking for... big, wide and heavy.

This bowl was purchased to feed my GS/Mal mix. She’s a big dog and eats twice a day, 1/2 lb each serving. I use FreshPet dog food which is a wet food. I bought the 8 cup, thinking it would be perfect but when the bowl arrived I thought it was too big. Since using it I’m glad I bought the 8 cup. It’s the perfect size and is heavy so it doesn’t slide all the way across the floor and into the other room because my dog has to get every last morsel! I have it on a cloth mat which helps with that. I think if your dog is like mine, a ferocious feeder, and you don’t have the bowl on something, they still might slide it across your smooth floor, so I recommend a mat underneath. It might have been a good idea to put a silicon ring or rubber ring around the bottom for just that reason (don’t steal my idea unless you plan on cutting me in on the profits dog bowl people!) So the depth of the bowl is fine for food, but my dog’s mouth wasn’t made correctly, apparently, she leaks all over the place when she drinks. There’s no way I’d ever use this bowl for water unless I need my floor mopped with my socks. I definitely recommend this heavy bowl for food, but not for water unless you have a very proper, tactful and courteous drinker.

Es pequeñito pero lindo acabado y color

Heavy duty bowl, perfect size, recommend

I , Magic, 1 year old void goddess, queen of all I see, approve of this wonderful dish. I have had my human servant place it in the bathroom were I take my afternoon naps. The size is perfect . Deep enough to hold ample cold water that is replenished daily by my servant. Wide enough to prevent whisker fatigue when I partake of a long drink. I would give it 5 paws , however I am constrained to the human rating system however silly it is. So 5 stars

Brilliant size bowl for my 3 dogs

Toller Napf leicht zu reinigen.
