WOPET 300° Dog Camera with Treat Dispenser, New 5G , WiFi Pet Camera Treat Tossing for Cats and Dogs, 1080P HD with Night Vision, 2-Way Audio for Monitoring Your Pet on Phone app

We had a Furbo for years, but my biggest cat Milo would knock it over and the lid would pop off and he'd gorge on treats. So when the power cord finally busted when he knocked it over, I went to buy a replacement, and chafed at the cost still being so high. I saw this WOPET did the same thing at like $100 less so I figured I'd try it. In (almost) all metrics, it is better:1) It holds more treats. The Furbo has this slimline look, but the top is very thick where the unit is widest, so the chamber to hold treats is very small and empties quick. This unit holds way more, so it's better designed2) It has suctions on the bottom to adhere to a shelf. Furbo doesn't have this (or didn't when I bought it), so was easy to knock over. This one is not immoveable, but it is hard to move. Milo hasn't been able to knock it over.3) The lid is better designed. It's not overly thick like the bamboo one from the Furbo, and it sucks on better, It can actually be a bit hard to get off if you don't have fingernails to get in the crack to start the pulling. Milo hasn't gotten the lid off, which is good, because he doesn't need too many treats, he could lose a pound or two so we have to be sparing with the treats and not let him overdo it.4) Camera quality is better. At least from my Furbo bought a few years back, so perhaps Furbo has updated their camera too.5) It has a button on it so you can dispense without having to open the app. Sometimes you want to give your cats a treat with it without dealing with the app. Or you want the cat sitter to be able to dole out treats and don't want to give them app access. This is better than having no button.6) It's way cheaper. It does all the same things (at least that I use it for), and way less money.7) It doesn't show a different light when you are on the camera. With the Furbo, if you're looking at the unit it has one color of light on for if it is on standby and another color of light when the app is open and the camera is on. For me, I want there not to be a color difference. I want to also use this camera to spy on what's going on in my house when I am not there with the teenagers in the living room. With the Furbo they could tell when I'm doing that. With the WOPET they cannot.8) The ONLY thing I wish they'd done differently is put the power cord input on the back, rather that on the side that makes it hard to put books right next to it on the shelf. It's not quite as slick looking as the Furbo, but it's fine. The curved sides of the Furbo didn't make it a great book end either.(By the way, my pic above is of our custom designed bookshelf/kitty tree we designed. So it's a whole kitty playground, with some functionality too, which is why it looks so sparse.)

Bought this four years ago for Christmas for my sister. My mom also bought her one that was a different brand for Christmas. We had a laugh when we realized we both bought her the same thing. My sister loved them. But this one is still working four years later and the other one is long gone.

The media could not be loaded. UPDATE 2/11/23: my cats love it! My scaredy boy will be dead asleep and when he hears the flinging noise he will Superman over to the dispenser and sit right in front of it and let the treats hit him so he can gobble them up before his brother can get any. They actually fight over it now. It still dispenses more than once at a time so if I’m home I just run over and cover it with my hand and put them back inside but if I’m not home then he gets to gorge on 15 treats at a time. That’s the picture of his face filling the whole screen. The only thing that’s weird is that the night vision camera stays on all the time and you can hear it clicking on and off depending on the room brightness, so it makes me wonder if the developer or manufacturer is somehow tapping in? My dad said it should really only be turning on when we access the camera so for it be constantly be on even we’re not using it is a little sus. I’ll still leave it at 4 stars for that reason.Dispenses treats well enough. About 3-4 at a time. There is a delay from the time you push the button on the app to when the treats come out. My cats hate it. They hate sound of the treats coming out. There a flinging noise to let your pet know that a treat is coming and then the actual noise of the treats flying out. My younger scaredy cat is terrified of it. So much so that now he’s jumpy at any slight sound around the apartment. And my older cat got pegged in the face after it dispensed twice in a row even though I pushed the button only once. I’m sure they’ll get used to it, but I wish I had bought it sooner as we’re going on vacation in 3 days and I was hoping this was going to be a way to talk to them and still give them treats while we’re gone. We have a pet sitter but I have horrible separation anxiety from my babies. There’s kind of a weird and lengthy set up process so hopefully I don’t have to do it again. No issues with wifi so far so we’ll see when we’re not connected to it. The video is my younger cat. He finally came to eat the treats after about 30 minutes after they were dispensed. The picture is a screenshot of my poor 16 year old half blind old boy that got pegged in the face by a small handful of treats. I didn’t even realize what was happening until it was too late. I only got it because I heard this was one of the few treat dispenser cameras that didn’t need a subscription, it was on sale, and we’re going on our first long vacation since before Covid.

I'm a dog trainer and bought this in 2020. It has helped me train many, many dogs to be more comfortable in the crate when I'm not home. I've really liked this dispenser. It's been fine with a variety of kibble sizes, which is great. The only down sides are that the video lags and it takes a few seconds to dispense treats so that can make the timing difficult for rewarding quiet behavior.I'm currently using it for my puppy and it has just now started to randomly go offline. I have to unplug it then plug it back in for it to work again. It's lasted 4.5 years, which is pretty good for the price. I'll be ordering a replacement asap.
