After having one that had a plastic water bottle that you filled and attached to a drinking tray the length of the water bottle for more than a year, I searched for a new one because I had dropped and cracked the tray and Crazy Glue would not hold it together well. None of the ones I looked at appeared to even hold that much water. I liked that this one is "leak proof" as I attached a carbiner to it to hook it onto the loop on my denim shorts and it does not leak at all. That said, I have to agree with some of the other reviews that the button you have to hold down to release water into the drinking tray does not always dispense the water - sometimes I have to push, push, push it until I see bubbles rising in the tank before it will release water. My last one would easily stand up on it's own on the counter or any flat surface - this one gets turned upside-down to do the same. Also, when I fill the water to the brim and put on the base and turn it over, about 1/4 of the water goes into the "dispensing" section. I'd love to be able to add more water but it's impossible. For a thirsty dog after a bit of running and playing, it seems to take forever to get her enough water with the not-always-continuous flow when holding down the button. The main reason I haven't returned it yet is because it took me a long time to look at many others and decide on this one. I'm not looking forward to doing that again.
