Torus Water Bowl Review
I had never heard of the Torus Water Bowl until I was approached by Heyrex. I looked into it and thought it was the coolest thing since the invention of sliced bread.
Y’all remember Jake? He LOVES reviews, especially when they involve him.
==
The Torus Water Bowl is a sort of donut-shaped bowl that holds 1/2 gallon (2 liters) of water in its reservoir. This means that you have approximately two days’ worth of water for most dogs and even more for your cat.
It’s so easy to use. Simply fill the water reservoir and “close” until ready to use. Once you open it, (an image of a dog on the dial), water flows out freely through a slotted opening, but closes as it reaches a certain fill point. This ensures that the bowl doesn’t over-fill, and is a wonderful feature if you’re used to having a sloppy water-drinking dog leaving a mess behind. The water replenished itself with fresh water as your dog (or cat) drinks.
You can use this indoors if you want, but it’s perfect for going on trips or outings with your dog(s)! It’s perfect for this! Just fill the bowl, turn to Off, toss it in your trunk and off you go. Fido needs a drink? Just turn the dial to “Dog”, and voila! Fresh, clean, cool water. No fuss, no muss!
Because the water replenishes itself as the dog drinks, the water doesn’t go stale or tepid. The bowl is insulated so the water stays cooler for longer periods. It’s made of Food Grade Polypropylene and is not coated with BPA or any other substance. Nice!
You can even leave it on the floor in the back seat of your car without worrying (too much) about water spillage. The Torus bowl is portable, super sturdy, and will last for years, I’m sure.
The Torus Water Bowl even comes in a nifty clear plastic container in the same shape as the bowl. This is nice if you live in a place like I do — lots of dirt roads. In order words, lots of dust. It keeps the bowl dust-free and clean.
Why do you need a Torus Water Bowl?
I can’t think of how many times I’ve found myself on an outing with my dogs and realized I’d forgotten to bring a bowl for them. Even if I thought to bring one, and brought water along too, the water would be yucky warm on those hot summer days. That’s the beauty of the Torus bowl — the water stays cool and always readily available.
About the Filters
The Torus bowl uses activated carbon filters to remove any impurities, guaranteeing your pet has access to clean, fresh, water every time. Each filter comprises a plastic moulded cone with perforated walls which allow water to “flow through”. The activated carbon attracts sediment, equivalent to 2-stage home filter removing ionized chemicals used in treating water.
Each Torus filter lasts for approximately a month, so each pack of five filters gives your pet approximately five months of fresh, clean water. The Torus bowl comes with one filter to get you started.

I want to win this bowl because it will filter our well water. I want our dogs to be healthy and happy.
That’s a wonderful reason, Daniel. Thanks for entering my giveaway, and good luck to you and your dogs. 🙂
Great review! I didn’t realize you’re a Canadian expat like me!
Yep! I have duel citizenship now. How about you, Layla? Where you from, originally?
I want to win this bowl because it keeps water fresh and clean. I also like the travel feature of this bowl.
Thank you for entering, Daniel. Good luck!
No mess and cool water! Would love to try!
Good luck, Melissa!
We travel a lot and go camping a lot. This would be really handy in those instances!
YES! It sure would. It is so convenient and easy to use. I used to use those collapsible things, which are fine for hiking, but on trips, this Torus bowl beats all. I love that it keeps the water cool, especially. Thanks for entering, and good luck to you!
I’d love to win this for our sweet dog to take on walks or visits!
Good luck to you and your sweet dog, Lori. Thank you for entering! 🙂
i have 2 dog and they make mess of the water and food i do blog on it and take pic and put it on my sites
It sound like winning the Torus Water Bowl would be very helpful for you and your 2 dogs. Thank you for entering the giveaway, Desiree. Good luck!
I think my pups would love this! One is a very messy drinker so I love that it regulates the water level for her. And the other only wants water that is cool, so the fact that it keeps water cool would help her to stay hydrated.
Sounds like this bowl would be a win-win situation for you and your pups. No mess, and cool water! Thank you for entering the contest, Rebecca. Good luck to you and your pups. 🙂
I have a 9 month old female pit. She is my Baby. She goes everywhere with me. This bowl would be great for travel and home use. When i get something to drink i expect it to be cold so therefore i would want her to have a cold drink everytime. I also would have piece of mind knowing that every drink is filtered.
I can tell you love your baby, Kayla. As it should be. 🙂 Thank you for entering and I wish you and your girl lots of luck! All the best. Give her a hug for me.
Thank you so much. Hazel send’s many puppy kisses back.
I live on a busy main street with lots of dust so this would be awesome for Layla, would love to win one 🙂
Thank you for entering, Ruth. Good luck to you and Layla. (Love that name.) 🙂
I have 5 loving cats that would love a new water bowl.
This would be perfect for your 5 loving cats. Good luck, Holly!
I love that the water stays cool! This would be great for trips with the dogs 🙂
Yes it is a great thing, Shelley. We’ve been using ours for when we go into town shopping! It’s always nice to have the option of offering Jake some water whenever he needs it.
I’ve got nine dogs, including three rescues…seven of them, including one of the rescues are shelties and though my other two reacues hate the car, all of the shelties LOVE going on rides. This bowl would be PERFECT to use for our car rides and trips and MUCH easier to give them water than using a regular bowl as I normally do which invariably always gets spilled or splashed. I’d never heard of this bowl beforehand so thanks for both the chance to win and for the awesome review and introducing me to it!
Thanks for your comment, G. Sounds like you need more than one, actually. Wow. Good luck to you and your pack! Thanks for entering.
That is a nifty looking water bowl. Too bad I don’t have a dog to use this bowl!
Thanks for your comment, Jennifer. It is a nifty bowl. Used it today, in fact, while out shopping at PetSmart with the dog. 🙂
Thanks for such an informative and thorough review about the water bowl giveaway. It is reassuring to know that our pets will be getting clean and cool water. It’s great that it comes with a filter that really sanitizes the water on a regular basis.
We love this bowl. It’s so practical. Thanks for stopping by, Deborah! I do hope you’ll come see us again. 🙂
I would love to win the Heyrex Torus water bowl for my dog because I want him to have the freshest water possible.
Thank you for entering, Jennifer! Good luck to you and your dog! 🙂
I love this. I’ve been thinking of getting something like this for my cat actually. Thanks for the review.
You’re welcome, Allison. You cat will love it. So will you. I promise. 🙂 Good luck.
I have to travel from VA to FL every year with pets and children. This bowl will be perfect for the road trips. Thanks for the chance to win.
Yes, it sure would be perfect for your trips. Excellent! Good luck, Heather!
I would love to win this because I have four dogs that would really enjoy this. Thank you so much for the chance Muah!
Thanks for entering, Angela. Good luck to you and your dogs! 🙂

thank you your so sweet! your the only person who has ever responded on my blog comment.
Really? Well, you are welcome, Angela. I always respond. 🙂 Thank YOU for visiting my blog in the first place.
Well, between having five rescued Treeing Walker Coonhounds of my own and the fact that I’m a volunteer rescue transport driver, I’m always on the go with dogs. This would be great for us!
Oh my! Yes, this would be good for you. You could even use several ! Wow. Thanks for all that you do. Bravo!
I would love to win this for my Leonard because it is so hard to find watering stations at parks around here for pups. and if you do you kinda don’t want to let them drink from it because you don’t know what was there before you. So this would be an awesome gift to have.
Yes, this would be an amazing thing for your Leonard to have. I’ll tell you truthfully, I do love mine. It’s so easy now to take Jake places and to make sure he’s well-watered. Thanks for entering, and good luck to you and Leonard. 🙂
Thank you for having the giveaway and this site. I love it very much.
You are quite welcome, Heather. I’m so glad you stopped by. 🙂
We don’t even drink our water due to it being contaminated that is why I would like to win one.
Good luck to you, Sandra. I’m glad you entered the giveaway. Sounds like you need it. 🙂
I love this bowl!!! I am on a spring water system and still worry about small contaminants getting in. I have a main filter but would love having that bowl with the filters to be sure and it hold enough so that changing or filling it can be every other day….Good Idea!
Yes, this bowl definitely is a good idea, Kathleen. I’m glad you entered the giveaway! Good luck to you! 🙂
