I have had this feeder for a few years but just decided to test it for a vacation feeder. It worked well for just under a month. I replaced the batteries that were new a month ago and it still doesn't dispense food. Has anyone had this experience? Are they just not reliable? I'm disappointed.
 
I used one for years and feel like I still would be had I not dropped it on a tile floor...ugh. Sorry you're having issues with yours.

I’ve used mine a couple years. I believe they are reliable in general. Did you try pressing the button to see if it works at all?

I did, nothing. I'm debating if I should purchase another.
 
Stinks it broke. I have been using 3 of them for maybe 5 years plus now and consider them top notch especially for the price. I guess some bad ones get out there, but ime they have been rock solid.

Double check make sure batteries are not in backwards, anything's possible., comrade
