Product Information
Full details
The SuperDesign Slanted Bowl is ideal for pet owners seeking to improve their pet's eating posture and digestion. Its ergonomic 15-degree tilt reduces neck strain and aids digestion, while the non-slip base keeps it securely in place. A potential drawback is that the melamine base is not suitable for all dishwasher cycles due to potential damage.

FAQs
What is the capacity of the Small size bowl?
The Small size bowl holds approximately 300ml of dry food or water.
Are both the base and the bowl dishwasher safe?
Yes, both the melamine base and the stainless steel bowl are dishwasher safe. However, handwashing the base is recommended to prolong its lifespan.
Is this bowl suitable for cats?
Yes, the ergonomic design is beneficial for cats as well, particularly those who may benefit from a reduced neck strain while eating or have digestive sensitivities.
What makes this bowl good for flat-faced dogs?
The 15-degree tilt causes food to concentrate at the bottom of the bowl, making it easier for flat-faced breeds like French Bulldogs or Pugs to access their food without excessive neck bending.
How does the non-slip feature work?
An integrated rubber ring on the bottom of the melamine base provides grip on various floor surfaces, preventing the bowl from sliding during feeding.
What are the dimensions for the Extra Large size?
The Extra Large size in pink has a base diameter of 20cm, a depth of 27.5cm, and a height of 28.5cm. The stainless steel bowl measures 20cm in diameter and 9.5cm in depth.
Can the stainless steel bowl be used without the base?
Yes, the stainless steel bowl can be used independently. It has a rubber seal on its rim that helps it stay in place within the base, but it can also function on its own.
Troubleshooting
Bowl slides on the floor
Ensure the integrated rubber ring on the base is clean and free of debris. Verify the floor surface is dry and clean.
Pet pushes food out of the bowl
Confirm the stainless steel bowl is seated correctly in the base with the rubber seal engaged. The high arc rim is designed to prevent this, so ensure it's not obstructed.
Melamine base shows wear after washing
Use a gentle dishwasher cycle or hand wash the melamine base. Avoid high heat settings, as this can cause damage over time.
Stainless steel bowl is loose
Check that the rubber seal on the underside of the stainless steel bowl is intact and clean. Ensure the bowl is fully seated in the melamine base.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Reduces neck strain and promotes better digestion for pets.
- Prevents bowl slippage with its non-slip base.
- Minimizes food spillage due to the high arc rim.
- Easy to clean with dishwasher-safe components.
- Encourages pets, especially those with certain breeds or age-related issues, to eat more comfortably.
Cons
- Melamine base may be susceptible to damage on high heat dishwasher cycles.
- The 300ml capacity might be small for very large or voracious eaters.
- Specific dimensions for smaller sizes are not detailed, making selection for very small pets potentially difficult.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Simply place the stainless steel bowl into the melamine base. The rubber seal on the bowl's rim will help secure it in place. Ensure the base is on a stable, level surface.
Compatibility: Suitable for most cats and dogs, particularly those with neck or joint pain, digestive issues, or brachycephalic (flat-faced) breeds. The Small size is typically recommended for pets weighing 3-9kg and holds approximately 300ml of dry food.
Care: Both the stainless steel bowl and the melamine base are dishwasher safe. For best results and to maintain the integrity of the melamine, it is recommended to wash the base on the top rack or use a gentle cycle. Handwashing with mild soap and water is also an effective cleaning method. Ensure both parts are completely dry before reassembling.
