4 Gal. Bleached Linen Gravity Dog or Cat Waterer

Very flimsy, when not full my dog can knock it off, making a huge water mess!!! It is already dented. I have a smaller one from another brand and that one is steady!

Would like clearer and more detailed instruction. Dumped 4 gallons os water on floor. The poodles enjoyed the swim

We have 4 of the Large Le Bistro Waterer Systems and we love it! It is easy to clean, easy to fill and lasts several days. Yes the jug is heavy, I carry it with one finger in the hole and one hand underneath. When loading the jug into the bowl, I plug the hole with my finger until I'm ready to drop it in place. No mess ever! I've tried 3 or 4 different brands through out my career and this one is by far the best. The other brands would slosh over the sides when the dogs lap their tongues. The lip around the bowl prevents the water from sloshing over the edge. My model doesn't have a charcoal filter, when I clean it I just use white vinegar to get rid of any algae that may have occured in the summer sun. I have learned the hard way not to let them run dry... they aren't chew proof! LOL. I love this brand so much I have 5 in reserves in my storage room, just in case it becomes discontinued. (Please don't!!) I recommend it to all my puppy buyers. My only complaint is the little corners where the water bowl connects to the feeder, I can't get in to the sharp angle with my brush. (Perhaps I just need to go get a different brush.) I wouldn't recommend getting the large if you only have one dog or small dogs, as water that sits more than 5 days will grow algae and mosquitos. Would love if Aspen were to start a breeder referral program, but I'll refer you anyways!!

My second Lebistro waterer. The old bottle finally cracked, I know it was atleast 15 years old, and had been unsed by more than a dozen Dobies during that time, so no complaints there. Bought the 4 gallon size for 2 very large and 2 medium large dogs plus numerous cats. The bottle is a bit heavy when filled but if you take the time to align the slots and tabs before tilting it spillage is kept to a minimum. The bottle seems solid when filled, not flimsy as another review indicated. The wide opening is definately superior for cleaning to the narrow opening of my old unit. Would definately buy again!

My son bought this in July. It is impossible to get the black lid off to clean the water bottle and it has to be filled thru the small hole in the middle of the top. Even my son can't get it off most of the time. I have no idea why the lid won't unscrew.

I bought the original many years ago, my ex got the water dish. When I went to replace I naturally got the same brand. Extremely unhappy with it. It is very difficult to load the water bottle, it’s very difficult to clean. When the bottle broke on the old one you could use any bottle to use it, when this one breaks I will have to replace it with their bottle only. I’ve been using this for a year. I do not recommend this product.

I have the four gallon watering system and it is great having this for my German Shepard. Reading some of the reviews it appears that a lot of us have the same complaint. The four gallon dispenser NEEDS a handle on the side or maybe on the top! We use our system in the house and I have yet to put the bottle back on the dish without making a huge mess! A handle would be an awesome improvement.

I just bought my second one gallon Aspen Pet Lebistro Waterer and both have leaked like a fire hose. Why can't you make a product that will do what you claim?
