## Customer feedback

Customer feedback reports straightforward fitting and programming, with some customers noting a good fit in standard PVC door panels and effective exclusion of unwanted animals. Experiences with operation are mixed: some cats use the flap readily, while others reportedly struggle to navigate it. Battery life is also reported inconsistently, from around a year to only a few months. These reports may matter for households relying on frequent selective entry, but the listing supplies no battery-life figure.
- Positive themes: Customers report easy installation and setup, including a good fit in standard PVC door panels.
- Positive themes: Feedback describes programming as straightforward and appreciates keeping unwanted animals out.
- Mixed feedback: Reports differ on how easily cats learn to use the flap.
- Mixed feedback: Customer reports of battery life range from about a year to a few months.
