[2017 Item ] Petcube Bites Pet Camera with Treat Dispenser: HD 1080p Video Monitor, 2-Way Audio, Night Vision, Sound and Motion Alerts. For Dogs and Cats

The petcube surprised me in the quality of the hardware and the great app build. When you pay for cheap house cameras, you usually get cheap hardware, a barely usable app, and the constant worry of, is someone hacking into this thing right now? It's cheap for a reason. On the flipside, the petcube feels like a high-quality product, and the rosegold color looks great. It's smaller than I thought it was, the term "cube" isn't correct in this case, it's more like a thin rectangle. As far as the app itself goes, I'm very impressed. It felt fun, and integrated a picture feed from others in the petcube community kinda like instagram. It's not necessary, but again it's what separates itself as a product with a lot of care put into it vs a cheap $50 cam. The video quality is great, and you have the option to record and alert every movement or shut that off if you want. It gets a great field of view, I can see everything in the room from a high-point on the counter. Finally, I can't end this review without mentioning the talking and treat dispenser! Both worked well, and were pretty neat to play with. Unfortunately, my dog was a little scared of it. I don't hold that against petcube though, she's a little jumpy around everything; she'll come around eventually =) Final verdict: I'd recommend this for all pet owners who want to keep an eye on their troublemakers when they're not home!

I just started a new job, and wanted a way to check on my pup and ease him back into long days at home alone. The Petcube is great! The video quality is amazing, and the lens gives a wide clear view of the room. The setup was super easy, it connected to my wifi with no problems. It did have to update the software, but it was quick and easy. I love that it sends notifications to your iphone when your pet is in the room. My pup quickly picked up where the treats were coming from, and enjoys that he gets bonus treats when I'm not home!

I have been using it for a few days now and I absolutely love this device. The quality of the video is pretty good and I love the night vision as well. I’m keeping it in a room that is as far from our router as possible in my house and it still works great. It does get better image when it’s closer to the wifi, but I’m still pleased with what I got. I bought it on PrimeDay and I wish they had also put their other cameras on sale, I’m definitely going to buy the Petcube Play in the future. The app is a little finicky and sometimes you need to restart it to get it to load properly, but it’s a great app and very user-friendly. My favorite part about this is that you can download the videos if you catch a cute moment of your pet. I think you need the petcube Care subscription to be able to download the videos, but it comes with a 7 day trial so you can decide if it’s something you want or not. My cats aren’t used to the sound of it when I fling the treats yet, but I think they’ll get used to it soon. It’s not loud or anything, it’s just my scaredy-cats haha I definitely reco mmend Petcube for anyone looking for a fun way to communicate with your pets when you’re not at home and to keep an eye on their safety.

Also, my cats get scared of the sound when treats are dispensed. I should've just bought the camera-only model for less $.

Bought the Rose color as a Xmas gift to my fiancee. Out of the box, it was pretty easy to set up on her iPhone. He had to reset a few times as it tried to connect to the wireless. Video quality looks good. We used the treat that came with the product. The lid was tight and hard to open. When we first tried to launch the treat, the motor could he heard, but no treats were launched. I opened the lid to see inside, but the loading tray would not spin so nothing was being pushed into the launch pad.this first Petcube was returned and a replacement was order. This time, I tried setting it up first on my Android phone and it would not link--it was stuck at the final screen. Then I used my fiance iPhone to do the initial set up. No problem there. BUT, we still had the mechanical issue. Sometimes the loading tray spins, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it just twitches.Ultimately, 0 for 2 on the PetCube. The product has been returned and a Furbo was ordered instead.

I'm super disappointed with this camera. I got it for the same reason most people get it, to interact with and check in on my dog while I'm not home. When I got my camera it didnt even work. I will say, customer service was great with answering my questions and sending me a new one right away. Returning the package was a total hassle and took multiple phone calls to get a return label. It took so long to return due to their incompetence that they ended up charging me for the second camera even though I shipped the original one back. The camera itself is ok, but not great compared to other home cameras. It never alerted me for any movements and I hate that I can't hear anything when I sign in. The treat dispenser is pretty cool and probably the only cool feature this thing has. I've had my new, replaced one for a few months and it's already stopped working. It's doing exactly what my initial one did. I should have spent the money on a Furbo instead.

I love that I can see what my dog is up to when I leave the house. I can spy on her when I'm at work and throw her some treats. I used to feel sooo guilty whenever I leave, even when it's just for a few hours. This has definitely helped me feel less guilty (b/c I know that she just sleeps and maybe paces around a bit). Peace of mind is great! One of my friends told me he caught his dog doing something she shouldn't and he was able to distract her with the petcube.One of my favorite things to do is actually record her overnight. She ALWAYS wakes up at 5am and paces around. I am too sleepy to see what she's up to, but now I know..Some of the features that I love are: it's a treat dispenser, i can SHARE the camera access with my family and friends via the petcube app (i can give them access to interact with my dog), it has a zooming feature, the hd quality is pretty good, and it doubles as a security camera. :)I only wish that they have a web app. It's not a big deal since I can just use my phone to check on her, but it will be nice when they finally have web app support.
