I just got this feeder so the review may change. It feels of good quality, but per other reviewers recommendations, I built a housing for in in a bucket, since I have a lot of wildlife nearby. The digital controls are a little confusing to understand, but not impossible. Today was the first day it fed the fish. I have 22 koi so I'm using the frequent feeder mode but it seems like too little food per feeding. I don't want to feed only three times a day, the volume would be too much per feeding. I wish there was a way to choose more than 3 feedings with a larger amount than the frequent feeder option. Oh well, I'll figure it out.

I have had it a short time. It's been splashed with water and seems to be water proof. The test will be when it rains. Programming took a while to figure it out but once you do it's much easier. It's just right for my 1 k gallon pond and has been great!
