The metal dishes get colder than the plastic tray with the ice packs underneath and can be washed in the dishwasher every day. Worth the money. Review: Switching to stainless. - Five Stainless inserts in plastic carrier work well as replacement for the included grey tray. (I wanted a 2nd tray, but may replace the original tray as concerned that it be made of forever chemicals, as it is 'nonstick'.) Ironically the white carrier tray is plastic, not stainless. ## Features - SAFE & HYGIENIC MATERIAL: made from 304 grade stainless steel that is hygienic, non-toxic, and non-allergenic - EASY TO CLEAN: wipe clean, hand wash, or pop in the dishwasher—only clean the bowls you use. - PET-FRIENDLY DESIGN: shallow with smooth folded edges and rounded corners for safe and easy eating - PERFECT FIT: Specifically designed to sit securely inside the existing plastic carousel of your Closer Pets/Cat Mate C500 five-bowl feeder - DIMENSIONS: each bowl measures 12cm (4.72") wide, 9cm (3.54") long, and 2–3cm (0.79"-1.18") deep ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0B3MS1MWR | | Additional Features | Durable | | Age Range Description | All Life Stages | | Are Batteries Required | No | | Batteries are Included | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #54,134 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #182 in Dog Automatic Feeders | | Brand | Cat Mate | | Brand Name | Cat Mate | | Breed Recommendation | All Breed Sizes | | Capacity | 0.75 Pounds | | Color | Stainless Steel Bowl Inserts (Pack of 5) | | Connectivity Technology | WiFi | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 230 Reviews | | Dog Breed Size | All | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00035368901010 | | Included Components | Stainless Steel Bowls | | Is the item dishwasher safe? | Yes | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 10.83"L x 10.83"W x 2.64"H | | Item Weight | 16 ounces | | Manufacturer | Cat Mate | | Manufacturer Part Number | 464 | | Material | Stainless Steel | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Number | 464 | | Operation Mode | Automatic | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Recommended Uses For Product | Dry Food, Wet Food | | Special Feature | Durable | | Style | Modern | | Target Species | Cats / Dogs | | UPC | 035368901010 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Cat Mate - **Material:** Stainless Steel - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Camping, Car, Crate, Hiking, Indoor - **Special Feature:** Durable - **Target Species:** Cats / Dogs ## Images ![Stainless Steel Bowl Inserts - Replacement Bowls for 5-Meal C500 Automatic Pet Feeder (Pack of 5) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61nJFpwrtnL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ More durable, hygenic, and keeps food cold *by B***Y on December 20, 2025* Great product. The metal dishes get colder than the plastic tray with the ice packs underneath and can be washed in the dishwasher every day. Worth the money. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Switching to stainless. *by A***R on August 8, 2025* Five Stainless inserts in plastic carrier work well as replacement for the included grey tray. (I wanted a 2nd tray, but may replace the original tray as concerned that it be made of forever chemicals, as it is 'nonstick'.) Ironically the white carrier tray is plastic, not stainless. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for Reduced Clean Up *by N***H on October 24, 2024* This product comes with a new tray (slightly different than the OEM) and 5 stainless steel inserts. I only use 1 slot daily and up to 3 at a time so this has reduced cleanup efforts, being able to clean the individual inserts and replace daily. Also much more convenient to fit in a dishwasher. I will be buying another set! ## Frequently Bought Together - Cat Mate Replacement Bowl with Stainless Steel Inserts for The Five-Meal Automatic Pet Feeder - Cat Mate Single Replacement Ice Pack for The C300 Automatic Pet Feeder --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/472469810-stainless-steel-bowl-inserts-replacement-bowls-for-5-meal-c500](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/472469810-stainless-steel-bowl-inserts-replacement-bowls-for-5-meal-c500) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-05*
