We got the Crown Majestic Auto Pet Feeder ( https://amzn.to/2DzA74e ) a few years ago for weekend feeding of two cats. This is a quick review after 3 years of occasional weekend use. My Youtube vlogs may also have associated affiliate links to products that may earn from qualifying purchases.

Review:
We used this basic automatic feeder on weekends and holidays when we cant get a friend to help feed the cats or dog. It holds more than 3 pounds of dry food pellets. It has time date, 4 meal timing settings. Each meal setting is can be set with up to dispense from 1 to 8 units. Each unit will equal to 1/4 cup. So 8 units will pretty much fill the entire basin.


It comes with a AC adaptor, however you can use 4 AA batteries ( https://amzn.to/2q6imq7 ) in case the power goes out. If the unit loses power, all memory and settings are reset.
The dispenser plays a personal recording when it dispenses. The recording is horrible and sounds like a bad cb radio.


PROS: It works and i still use it.
CONS: Its dispenses a LOT of food. Smart cats can grab kibble from the hopper. Smart pets can overturn device and take food. The voice recording is horrible. Water reservoir is too small. Make one instead: DIY Pet Water Dispenser: https://youtu.be/s1hGnQ-2_V8

5 Gallon Lids REVIEW: Gamma Lids vs Regular Lids vs Flexible Soft lids for Pet Food Storage.

Just a quick comparison between Gamma Lid ($7) vs Food Grade ($5) and Easy Soft ($2) lids for 5 Gallon Pet Food Storage ideas.  I just got a some Gamma lids ( https://amzn.to/2C1uDOF ) to replace one of my older Soft 5 Gallon Lids ( https://amzn.to/2SG1Vdo ) and my food grade 5 gallon lids with spouts ( https://amzn.to/2SzNBTn ) .

Overall I like the convenience of the $2 flexible lids over the Gamma and Food grade lids for pet food as it is easy to open to feed the animals.  They may only last about 2 years and may not be as durable as the other lids, but they are very easy to handle daily.

The Gamma lids are awesome and are air tight for pet food.  The minor issue would be the chance of over tightening the screw top, making it difficult to open. It is a lower price alternative than a dedicated pet food bin with Gamma lids which range from $25- $40 dollars : https://amzn.to/2LTTmJo .    With the Gamma lids I don’t see how these are removable after installing on a 5 gallon bucket. I fear using a bucket tool ( https://amzn.to/2Rto94X ) may break the thin lid walls during removal.

The food grade commercial lids with spouts  that came with my food grade buckets ( https://amzn.to/2SzNBTn ) . Need a bucket lid tool ( https://amzn.to/2Rto94X ) to open every time. IT is pretty easy to open with the tool, maybe easier to open than the Gamma lids, however you need the tool to open it.  For long term food storage I would use the food grade bucket lids which are air tight and extremely strong.  Closing the snap on lids require a mallet or the lid tool to hammer seal the lids.



I heard many different reviews about Flex Seal and how effective it is some are positive and some are not as positive.  Overall its basically rubber spray.
