Review: The Drinkwell Platinum Pet Water Fountain

Getting enough water to drink is essential for health for both us and our pets. Since our pets are lifetime companions we want them to be in the best health possible for years to come.

One of the ways to help ensure they stay in tiptop shape is to make sure they’re constantly getting fresh clean water. Sure you can just put down a bowl of water for the pet but that has its downsides. A bowl of water just sits and stagnates over time. You also have to deal with pet hair and dirt falling into the water dish.

A good way to solve that problem is to get a pet drinking fountain.

And one of the best we have found is the Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain which provides a constant flow of water off a dedicated power supply. This ensures that your pet has fresh clean water available all day long.

How It Works

The Platinum Pet Fountain uses a small pump to circulate water from a reservoir to a bowl and back up. As the water circulates it passes through a charcoal filter to remove any nasty odors. The fountain also has a debris screen to catch any dirt or hair that might get in it.

What We Like:

The fountain has a removable water reservoir for easy refilling. You don’t have to lug the entire unit over to the sink to refill it. Just detach the reservoir from the unit, fill it, and then snap it back into place.

Another really nice feature is the detachable power cord. This means that when it comes time to clean the unit it can be unplugged and taken outside for easy washing. Also, the filters are removable so you can just rinse them off and stick them back in the unit with minimum hassle.

This is a solid unit. It can stand up to a pet. It’s nice and heavy with rubber feet so you don’t have to worry about a pet knocking it over and dumping water all over the floor
