Top critical review
3.0 out of 5 starsStopped Working after a month

Got the AONBOY Cat Water Fountain because it seemed like a solid pick for keeping my cat hydrated with some style. Initially, it was everything I hoped for—quiet, with a cool LED light, and my cat actually used it. Here’s the breakdown, though:
What I Liked
- Quiet Operation... At First: For a while, it lived up to the ultra-silent hype. The pump was strong, kept the water flowing smoothly without much noise.
- LED Light: A nice touch that made it easy to spot, and my cat loved it.
What Went Wrong
- Pump Durability: The pump started strong but eventually lost its oomph. It was good while it lasted, but then...
- Loud Noise on Empty: If it ever ran dry, the thing sounded off like a siren, which was startling at best.
- Activated Carbon Filter: I Feet more like a buzzword than a feature on most of these products. Didn't see much difference with it.
- Customer Service Silence: When the pump gave out, I reached out for help but got crickets. No response, no support.
Final Thoughts
Wanted to love this fountain, really. If the pump had kept up, this would be a glowing 5-star review. But between the eventual noise issues, questionable filter benefits, and a lack of follow-up from the seller, I’ve got to give it 2 stars. It’s a shame because the concept and initial performance were spot on.
