Dogit 2-in-1 Elevated Dish/Bowl, Black, 900 ml
B**9
Misleading sizing, totally useless for a medium sized dog.
I purchased 2 of the 900ml Dogit 2-in-1 Dish / Bowls for my two Labradors. The dimensions advertised for the 300ml capacity are 9.4 x 16.5 x 16.5 cm, specifying the height from the floor as @ 9cm.The 900ml bowls, aimed at the larger dogs are advertised as 17 x 21.8 x 21.8 cm, with the height from the floor as 17cm.Based on the information given it would be reasonable to assume that the diameter of the actual feeding part of the item, would either be 16.5 x 16.5cm for the smaller item or 21.8 x 21.8 cm for the larger dog.In reality the actual stainless steel dish for the larger 900ml item is, giving the most generous measurements that I could, 16cm diameter (that includes the outer rim of the dish), so more like 14.5 cm in diameter, with the depth / height of the bowl at a maximum of 6cm (again including the rim of the bowl, it’s only use is to sit the bowl within the container as it has no bearing on the actual size of the bowl for the dog to eat from), so again, the real depth of the bowl is more in the region of 5.5cm, and that is being generous.On attempting to feed both dogs the biggest issue is that the size of their nose / mouth, is far too large to actually fit in the bowl to obtain the food. The height of the item itself was fine, but to be honest the item is in my view only suitable either for a smaller dog (although it may be too high for smaller breeds), or a slightly larger breed which has a smaller / flatter face to enable it to access the food.Fortunately the items were reduced in the sale, as clearly I have attempted to use them and therefore they are not suitable for return, and returning such items is just more hassle, having to re-pack the bowls / arrange and wait in all day on the off-chance the courier arrives to collect.I’ve put this purchase down to experience, frustrated about the money wasted and in the future to disregard the manufacturers write up. I think these items are most likely candidates for the local animal charity, hopefully they can be put to some use.

Good bowl for the price
This is half the price of other bowels of the same size. I got it to help my shar pei so the wrinkles aren't pushing down on her eyes when her heads down to eat. Really pleased with it so iv orderd another for our staffi cross. Iv added the pic for a size guide

For taller breeds
I have a Gordon Setter, a tall dog. For a few years we have used those plastic bowls with the humps and bumps to encourage slow eating. He’s gone through two. He sneaks off with his dish, when he can, and chews it. So, I decided to get a more robust one. This one intrigued me as it gives height for big dogs, which makes sense.When it arrived, though I’d picked the largest, I thought it had a really small bowl. However, as he gets his meal split in two it actually was fine for what he eats. I think he is quite happy with his food being a bit further from the floor too.The metal bowl at the top comes out very easily. The blue stand has a rubber non slip ring on the base and two curves for picking it up.We’re very happy with it.

Check the bowl size!
As others have said, the height and construction of the feeder are good, but the size of the bowl lets it down. I bought this for a bearded collie (medium size dog, ordered the large feeder) but the bowl is really too small - it would be useful for future purchasers if the dimension of the bowl was given as well as its capacity. As my dog has 4 small feeds a day the capacity isn't an issue, but the bowl size is.
