This thing is so freaking sturdy!
***Update***We've been using this to feed every meal, everyday for a little over a year and endless drops down the stairs with still no breakage. Today I came home and finally had to say goodbye.. the pup chewed the edges after it fell apart from falling down the stairs and it wouldn't fit together again. I will be buying another one, hands down, but wanted to update the review with a little more info for folks who may use this differently.* the slider is easier than desired to open and close. There were a couple days since we've had this where he had pushed it closed and since we give it to him to keep busy while we're out, he ended up starving those days. :(* There are some gaps that food crumbs tend to get stuck in that could make it hard to clean. I'll be honest I never cleaned it though (just shook out the debris) so mold, etc. wasn't a problem for us.* The plastic isn't tough enough for about chewers like puppies and the like to be left alone with it.* The sound of this on hardwood floors is LOUD. I don't mind but some people might.* Even after all this time, pup never stopped loving this thing. He looks forward to me leaving now since he gets his food ball! 😋**********************This thing is so freaking sturdy! I have an extremely energetic, intelligent border collie mix and I use it to feed him his meals to keep him engaged. It's been about two weeks now and he still loves pushing it around and never gets bored of it. He's also pushed it down the stairs twice; the first time it fell one step at a time on carpeted steps, and it remained undamaged and unopened. The second time it fell a whole story onto concrete through the gap behind the stairs and the two piecs merely separated (spilling the food out) rather than breaking or cracking. The hole where the food comes out is also deep inside it, so small dogs can't get their jaws stuck like some of the other food dispensing balls I've seen. I'm very impressed!! I'd recommend to anyone who needs to keep their dog engaged constantly.

Dog Loves It - Doesn't Travel All Over The House
My dog loves this. I put her kibble in it to use for extra food and giver her something to entertain her. If your dog eats too quickly, this will help with that. It does not hold a lot of food so you can limit the portions to help with better digestion. It also does not roll all over the house like the ball style ones do so it tends to be a bit quieter and makes less of a trail/mess.

Keeps my bunny busy
This toy is good for my rabbit to use to forage. However, I really wish the opening to release treats was smaller. I have to put a piece of tape over it to keep him from spilling all his pellets at once.

Design Needs Work
This product definitely helped slow my dog down when she eats. It took her about 30 minutes to figure it out the first time, but now she's got it down to about 5 minutes. Still beats the 20 seconds it used to take her to eat.The only issues I have with this are the design and assembly. There are holes in the middle where crumbs can fall into. The screw top and clear part of the "egg" comes off easily, but the part with the holes that access the bottom is almost impossible to take off.This is actually the second ball I've had. The first one was a gift. I could never figure out how to get the center part off, so I would usually just shake the crumbs out until I couldn't hear any rattling anymore. After a little while, I finally popped the center off and it was disgusting. I did wash the ball but since I couldn't get the center off before, moisture got trapped under there. The weight used on the bottom was rusted in some parts. There was also dark residue that I was too scared to even try to wash off. I felt bad that I was feeding my dog from this thing, so I ended up just throwing it out and buying a new one.As soon as I got the new one, I damn near took off some of my fingers trying to pop that center piece with the holes off. I DIY'd a "blocker" for the holes and so far we've been good. We'll see how well it holds up, though.

Easy and fun to use
The media could not be loaded. My 5 month old puppy loves it! She knows how to use it on her own and she has fun with it at the same time

Active treat feeder
The media could not be loaded. She loves it every time I give it her. Found that less is better when filling. Lever allows you to change the size of the dispensing hole. Only issue I see is when she gets excited and rolls it around the lever moves slightly and allows treats to come out faster than intended.

It's okay
I bought for my guinea pigs, they occupied 20 minutes in time probably. It weighs about 1 or 2lbs. Easy to clean, while it's chewable. No safety concerns and worth the value.
