Free shipping on all Super Feeders and tax free except to TN.  Fulfilment of this feeder order could be delayed a day or two to check shop for availability.   If you don't mind a blemish here and there like a scratch/nick that you may not even notice, this is a great buy. This brand new Super Feeder carries the same 1-year warranty, excluding of course any blemishes. If showing out of stock, check back from time to time. This basic package comes with a power adapter (type may vary) with 6' cord and jack plug, metal black powder-coat mounting bracket and strap, other hardware, two 2-cup capacity clear extensions, which give the feeder a total capacity of 1 quart and 3/4 cup. INCREASE ITS CAPACITY NOW OR LATER WITH THE 1.5 GALLON HOPPER AVAILABLE SEPARATELY. All you will need to operate it is any plug-in lamp/appliance timer (analog or digital), home automation system, etc...You MUST mount it to a 2x4 stud, 4x4, hang it, or make your own wood mount/platform (NOT for free-standing). This feeder will feed from a few food bits to a cup or more many times per day. The frequency of daily feeding cycles is totally dependent on the amount of "on-off" cycles your remote timer has. If installed outdoors, it should be properly protected against wild animals and its power supply should be enclosed out of the weather.  The quantity is adjustable at the feeder. It's brand-new, but remember that although plastic on feeder and/or accessories may have some imperfections, proper operation is not affected and covered under warranty. Feeder may consist of early or late model housing and chute cover depending on what is in stock at time of order.  Voltage required: Power supply (included) 110-240VAC 50-60Hz 12VDC output, USA style plugs only-not battery operated.  If a 120V power source is not available, you may even use any of our 6-24V timers listed here to use your own low voltage power source (some wiring required).

Made in USA for 26+ years!   Many modes of operation, indoor or outdoor applications and ease of  maintenance and repairs.  Trusted brand for years and years by thousands of customers.  See how Google example works for a customer if wanting to use voice activation.

NOTE: Small 1/4" round (spherical) kibbles like offered by Science Diet or other brands are recommended for best portion accuracy, but most other kibbles will work fine up to 5/8" diameter with perhaps a slightly reduced portion accuracy.  Please be aware that the feeder will not “count’ kibbles, but tests have shown that an overall portion accuracy of +/- 0.1 to 0.2 ounce from one portion to another is possible. Although performance is guaranteed with recommended food as described, please be advised that due to variance of kibble sizes and shapes, 100% portion accuracy simply cannot be guaranteed for all feed cycles.  That would of course apply to any feeder other than one with pre-filled compartments.

NOTE: USING A NAME BRAND LIKE "SCIENCE DIET" IS ONLY A BRAND EXAMPLE AND DOES NOT NECESSARILY MEAN THAT YOU ARE USING "RECOMMENDED" KIBBLE TYPE AS LISTED ABOVE IF YOU MUST HAVE THE BEST PORTION ACCURACY.

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS WITH 220-240V:  Please click on "Q&A/Shipping" above and http://www.super-feed.com/international_order_policy.htm

The feeder, as is, must be appropriately protected from wild animals if installed outdoors!  Examples can be found at super-feed.com by clicking on http://www.super-feed.com/small.html

How to operate the Super Feeder® with a cell phone, iPad, Android device or home automation system with with voice command like Alexa or other type like Google :

First, be sure to adjust your super feeder's desired portion size by plugging the power supply into a power outlet and adjusting the feed duration controller with the little supplied plastic screwdriver as explained in your feeder's manual or video.  Then plug the power supply into the Smart Plug after you have installed it just like you would a lamp.

System we tested and recommend:

The TP-LINK HS100 Smart Wi-Fi Plug is perfect to control your Super Feeder® remotely for up to 15 meals/snacks per day.  It is one of the easiest we tested to install and use.  Just follow directions included with the Smart Wi-Fi Plug.  All you will need to do once installed is program suggested 2 minutes of "on" time for each feed cycle time of day you want.  Make sure you program "on" and "off" time, i.e. 8:00 AM and off at 8:02 AM for each time of day you want to feed your pet.  Also select all or certain days of the week you want to trigger your Super Feeder® to feed your pet.  The feeder runs only for time in seconds you previously adjusted the feeder to give you the portion needed and then stops. You may of course trigger your Super Feeder®  anytime by remotely turning it on for a few seconds and turning it back off yourself from your device.  You may install and operate several Wi-Fi Plugs and feeders simultaneously in different places within range of local Wi-Fi.   Note:  The feeder must have been powered down for at least 2 minutes between feed cycles to assure it triggers again.  If it has not been off long enough like repeatedly turning it on and off, the feeder will not work, which is normal.  You could also control the Super Feeder® by voice command using this TP-LINK Smart Plug compatible with Amazon Alexa®.  The TP-Link Camera could be a great addition.  Many ways to operate your Super Feeder®.  This is what makes it so unique!

A great companion to this Super Feeder combo would be adding the Kasa KC120 Cam 1080p Smart Home Security Camera by TP-Link.  Unlike so many other built-in cheap camera feeders, that separate day/night camera is perfect because you can place it where you want and vary the field of vision and close-up on whatever you want as well as being able to record, speak and listen to your pet.  Makes a great pet monitoring system!

Other systems recommended by past customers:

For Wi-Fi control, the Wemo Wi-Fi switches by Belkin have been used successfully. Various systems that are currently being used are available from smarthome.com   Note:  Some systems offered on the market today suffer from perpetual changes and updates rendering some systems unusable if not compatible with certain Wi-Fi systems.  Some Wi-Fi switches on the market may not work if the socket does not turn off completely (some do and some may not like used for dimming lights), meaning that any residual power coming out of it during its off time will prevent the feeder from resetting itself between programmed feed cycles and will prevent it from triggering.

Using various timers:

You still retain the option to use just about any type of common lamp timer to operate your Super Feeder®.  Anything that will turn on a lamp or appliance will trigger and operate the Super Feeder®.
