Works great and retains programming
I wanted something that would feed my fish while I was gone on vacation and would retain its programming so I didn't have to start from scratch every time I needed to use it. Otherwise, I will keep feeding them myself. Since I needed a temporary mount, I screwed it onto the end of a piece of fence board and when I put it next to the pond, I put a couple of Adirondack chairs on the end of the board and it's very stable. Programming is easy there's a good YouTube video on how to do it. I don't know how, and for how long, but it actually retained the time of day when I unplugged it and then plugged it in again. My only complaint was that while I was gone, it rained very hard, the end of the spout got wet and the food got caught in a little dam at the end of the spout. So, I think I'm going to cut the end of the spout at a 45° angle so it's harder for rain to get in. I put a big screw high up in the wall in my garage and drilled a hole in the end of the board and I hang the feeder in the garage when not in use. I highly recommend this feeder.

Updated review: Great feeder
The media could not be loaded. Installation easy. I’ve try another brand but return due to difficult installation. This is good. Very easy. But setting clock and feeding time quite confusing. Not easy for me. Once it’s work smoothly. It should be good. I try manual feed. Amount perfect. I use small amount roll. Still time to learn how to adjust feeding time.Updated on 9/112024. See the video. Scheduled feeding working great. Manual feed as you want. Love it. Big tank for storage. My koi getting much bigger than before.

Works
Works dependably. Looks fine in our garden setting. February 25, 2025 I have seen a number of questions about this device from Amazon since our purchase. We purchased this in April 2021 to feed our koi fish while away from 7 days to 5 months at a time. We live in a semi rural area in the southwest U.S. The feeder is located in the back yard next to our pond and has remained in place outdoors since April 2021. When not in use it is unplugged. The power cord and control box can be easily removed from the device and stored. The settings and time are stored in the brain in control box and accurately come back on as soon as the control box is plugged in, even after several months, The device is made of heavy plastic and aluminum tubing. Our feeder has been exposed outdoors to115 F and cold to 25 F, snow, ice, high winds, and violent rainstorms both while unplugged and on. It has proven to be completely waterproof. The plastic materials have not warped, become brittle or shown any cracks. The device has remained unscathed by attacks by birds, packrats and raccoons to open the food container. Packrats have chewed on the power cord several times superficially. These damage areas were wrapped with electrical tape. The food delivery volumes have remained constant. The food container volume is sufficient to feed our 20 mature koi for 1 week. The food volume delivered is determined by which of 2 screw drive tubes that come with the device you install in the device, the number of turns of the drive and the number of feedings per day. Programming the device is pretty easy. Time, feeding time, number of turns of the screw drive and number and times of feedings per day are easily set and remain in the memory when on or unplugged for months. The device can be set to deliver considerably more or less food per day than we programed. This device has proven to be better than we expected.

Great unit!
Best of 3 different feeders I’ve tried. Lost power in one and squirrels hacked the other one. Not the easiest to program but once you get it set it runs flawlessly. 2 impellers included to match your food. I use Koi Vibrance soft sticks and performs well. Really like extra feed button to adjust seasonal volume or for amusing visiting children.

Auto Feeder doesn't work!
This product does not work! Plug it in, and nothing! No lit display-nothing! The Box states "2 year warranty", but your site says no returns after 1/31/25. I purchased in December 13th 2024, and installed it indoors yesterday((Feb 11th) to feed fish. I'm still hoping your company honors the advertised two year warranty, and replaces it with a unit that actually works! I will rate this product again after hopefully positive customer service-item replacement with a working unit.

Looks well built
This product seems to be well thought out and sturdy made. It was very easy to set up. You will need to pay attn to the instructions as to how to program it. I have a small 350 gal koi pond and was concerned that it would put too much food in the water. With the small auger and set at 1, it put out exactly the correct amt of food.I have only had it for two days but it held off a raccoon without issue and is functioning correctly.The company also seems to have good customer service which is a bid plus if things go southUpdate: the raccoon is now turning the movable spigot to where the food will dump on the deck and not in the pond (2 consecutive nights). I am hoping he’s not that smart, if he hits the hand feed button, i guess I will know, lol. Anyway I am removing the spigot so it will dump directly into the pond. Fingers crossed!Update #2. While on vacation, the raccoon craws up on the pond pump housing and took 3 seconds to remove the top. The top needs to be designed to tighten more effectively. Will tape the lid down
