Our scorecard

The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other dog and cat food, health, gear and grooming we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.

Overview

["The PTM-201 from Invengo is a 5 liter automatic feeder with 2.4 and 5G WiFi connectivity, letting owners control programmable portions from an app rather than only the device itself. It's built with anti-jam and fresh-lock features to keep kibble flowing and food from going stale, and it ships with a stainless steel bowl that's easy to clean.", "The unit measures 7.48 by 14.17 by 8.27 inches and weighs about 1.99 kilograms, and it's marked as smart home compatible. It's aimed at cats and small dogs, and the extra small to small dog breed sizing on the listing confirms this is meant for smaller pets rather than larger breeds.", "At $29.99 it's priced at the budget end for a WiFi connected feeder, which is notably lower than many app controlled models. It holds a 4.0 star average across 132 reviews, and the listing shows 0 units bought in the past month, so its sales track record is thinner than most other feeders in this category."]

Performance notes

The dual band WiFi and app control put this feeder's feature set closer to pricier smart feeders, while its price stays at the budget end. The anti-jam and fresh-lock combination targets two common complaints with lower cost dispensers, jammed kibble and stale food sitting in the reservoir.

What buyers say

A 4.0 star average across 132 reviews is a workable but thinner track record than other feeders here, and the listing showing 0 units bought in the past month suggests it hasn't built up strong recent momentum yet.
