Gardner Pet ZH-MSWJP Stainless Steel Dog Water Bowl, 3.85L

Technical overview

With a 3.85-liter capacity and a stainless steel bowl, the Gardner Pet ZH-MSWJP is designed to keep water available for dogs at home or outdoors. A floating plate controls how water reaches the surface, helping slow drinking and reduce splashing. Its weighted, nonslip base helps keep the bowl in place as dogs drink.

• Capacity: 3.85 liters
• Material: 304 stainless steel
• Color: Black
• Features: Floating plate, nonslip base, detachable design
• Recommended use: Indoor, outdoor, and camping

The floating plate gives this bowl a different approach from a conventional open water dish: it creates a controlled drinking surface while helping keep dust, hair, and debris out of the water. Customers often praise its capacity, size, and cleanliness features. Feedback on spill resistance is mixed, so experiences with keeping surrounding floors dry vary.

How to use it

Fill the bowl with water and set it on a level surface where your dog can drink comfortably. As your pet presses the floating plate, water rises through its surface, helping moderate access rather than leaving a wide-open pool to drink from. This design can be useful for enthusiastic drinkers and for keeping a water station tidier during everyday use.

The 3.85-liter capacity makes it practical for larger dogs or homes where a larger water supply is useful, the product is also recommended for all breed sizes. Use it indoors, outside, or while camping. Its nonslip base and floating plate are also intended to help keep water contained during car rides. For cleaning, the bowl comes apart so you can wash its components by hand. If the plate is tight, turn the bowl upside down to tilt it and ease its removal, silicone stoppers hold the plate in position during use.

Included in the package

The package includes one no-spill dog water bowl. Its detachable construction makes it possible to separate the floating plate for cleaning and then return it to the bowl for regular use.
