Bought this just a few months ago and wish I had bought it when I got the fountain! I was having to add water daily to the fountain (with 2 cats using it) and several times was awoken in the middle of the night by the pump running low. Now I fill the reservoir with ice cubes about every 3 days and that's enough for my two. The ice gives them some cool water on the first day and also lessens the chance of water leaking out when inverting to place on the base.

I ordered this resevoir as a replacement for the original that came with the fountain. I had put the original resevoir in the dishwasher, and it came out warped and ruined. Note: NOT dishwasher safe! Anyway, I filled up the new one and placed it on the fountain. After a day or so, I noticed the water level in the fountain was going down, but the resevoir was still full. I then discovered that when the resevoir is placed on the fountain, it needs to be twisted back and forth until bubbles rise up. Otherwise, for some unknown reason, the water will not go into the fountain. The old resevoir just worked -- no twisting or fiddling required! I am a bit hesitant to rely on it if I need to leave my cats alone for several days, as I have in the past with no problem. Will the water actually come out if no one is there to monitor it??

I still can't keep it filled, but I now don't have to fill it on a daily basis, sometimes twice daily. I just wish it was self cleaning ;) They all love it.

Bought this over other products because resevoir is removable, a little hard to untwist at times but very easy to clean.

I can't really say much about this. It doesn't leak, which is a plus and the only thing that worried me. The plastic is sturdy and doesn't seem prone to breaking/cracking. It sits on the back of the fountain and just feeds in water to the fountain as needed. Instead of filling the fountain every day, I now just fill the reservoir every 4 days or so. Definitely a convenience factor that I find worth paying for.
