Well Lexi has those stainless steel bowls in the rack, and they work like a charm and not to mention they keep water cold for her! She also can't pick it up out and she can't put her nose under it to lift it!

they were only $7, for both bowls and a rack! Try taht! I find the automatic are SO expensive, plus you gotta get those GIGANTIC jugs to put in it, if we're talking about the same one!
