BNOSDM Silicone Shallow Dog Bowl Review

Intro

I live with a couple of small dogs and I’m picky about bowls — shallow rims for flat faces, easy cleaning, and no sliding across the floor. The BNOSDM Silicone Dog Food Plate is a shallow, flexible silicone plate the listing positions for small breeds and flat-faced dogs. In this review I’ll walk through what the product claims, what owner feedback highlights, the little contradictions in the listing you should know about, and whether this is a fit for your pet and routine.

What it is / first look

On paper this is a simple product: a shallow silicone pet plate listed under the BNOSDM brand with model number JGY126-Y. The item dimensions are 7.08" x 6.29" x 1.18" and the listing gives the item weight as 0.2 kg (7.05 ounces). Capacity is specified as 330 ml, and the listing repeatedly emphasizes the shallow design — the product is described as suitable for flat-faced breeds such as Shih Tzu and French Bulldog and is recommended for small breed size and small puppy plates.

Material is specified in the listing as silicone, and the bullet copy calls it "Food Grade Silicone." The feature bullets also list a temperature range of -40°C to 240°C and claim the plate is microwave- and dishwasher-safe. The product care field elsewhere in the listing, however, says "Hand Wash Only." The listing also contains conflicting unit-count details: the feature bullets say "You will receive two silicone plate" while other specs list the unit count and included components as 1 piece. That contradiction is worth noting (see the Check before you buy checklist in Verdict).

Visually, the listing shows a flat, shallow plate with low edges that make food accessible for short-snouted pets. The available colors on the listing include Yellow, Beige, Brown, Green, Light Grey, Light Brown, Red, Grey, and Orange-Pink. The Amazon category places this under Basic Bowls in Feeding & Watering Supplies for dogs.

In daily use

What matters most day-to-day is how a bowl affects feeding behavior, cleaning, and household routines. From the product copy and the owner feedback collated with the listing, a few consistent practical points stand out.

Small breeds & puppies

The listing explicitly recommends this plate for small breeds and small puppies. The 330 ml capacity and the 7.08" x 6.29" footprint keep portions compact, which is what you want for a small dog or a young puppy. Owner notes highlight that this shallow plate avoids the deep-well problem small dogs sometimes can’t reach comfortably — several owners report their small dogs eat from it without struggling, and that the plate helps keep faces cleaner than deeper bowls.

Flat-faced (brachycephalic) breeds

BNOSDM advertises the shallow, wide profile as especially considered for flat-faced dogs like Shih Tzu and French Bulldogs. The low edge helps short-nosed dogs access food without scraping their whiskers or stuffing their faces into a deep bowl. The listing and owner feedback include examples of dogs with e-collars (cones) eating from the plate successfully — a useful practical detail if your pet is recovering from surgery and needs a shallow eating surface.

Travel, multi-use, and households with multiple pets

The listing mentions indoor and outdoor use and calls the plate multipurpose — beyond pet feeding it lists household uses like candy dishes or salad bowls. Owners cite portability and the convenience of a lightweight silicone plate for travel. Several owners also used these plates for both food and water or bought extra plates as spares — one owner even reports the size worked for a medium dog in practice, though the listing targets small breeds.

Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning comes up a lot with silicone: the listing’s bullets state the plate is dishwasher-safe and microwave-safe for heating food, and the silicone is described as having a smooth surface and flexible texture that reduces noise while eating. But the formal Product Care Instructions field in the specs reads "Hand Wash Only." That contradiction appears in the official listing data and should be resolved by confirming the seller’s current guidance. Owner feedback notes the plates clean quickly and that many people safely put them in the dishwasher, while others prefer handwashing to extend life — which matches the mixed instructions on the product page.

Materials & build quality

The listing lists the material type as silicone and explicitly calls it Food Grade Silicone in the bullet features. The product copy specifies a wide temperature range of -40°C to 240°C, which the listing uses to support microwave and dishwasher claims. Physical specs again are 7.08 x 6.29 x 1.18 inches and an item weight of 0.2 kg (7.05 ounces).

Owner feedback repeatedly characterizes the plates as well-made, durable, and stable. Phrases in the internal notes include "well-made durable quality," "won't break," and "stable to the floor and does not move." Those observations align with the silicone construction — a flexible, grippy base tends to resist sliding compared with thin plastic or lightweight metal bowls.

Safety considerations

Pet safety is my top priority, so I want to call out everything the listing and owner notes provide — and what they don’t.

• Material safety: The listing calls the material "Food Grade Silicone." That is the only listing claim about material safety; the listing does not include third-party certifications or testing documents. If you need certified materials for allergy or medical reasons, the listing doesn't specify certifications beyond the "Food Grade Silicone" label.
• Temperature tolerance: The feature bullets give a temperature range of -40°C to 240°C, and the listing states the plate is microwave-safe for heating food. The product care field also contradictory states "Hand Wash Only," so manufacturer's final guidance on heat and dishwasher use is unclear from the listing alone.
• Choking / small parts: The product is a single-piece shallow silicone plate per the specs; there's no indication in the product data of detachable or small parts that could create a choking hazard. Owner notes do not flag any choking incidents.
• Stability & spills: The listing and owner feedback highlight stability: owners report the plate "does not move," "won't drag all over the floor," and is stable with dogs wearing e-collars. That reduces one common safety annoyance — pets pushing bowls and spewing food or water across the floor.
• Sizing & fit safety: The plate is designed with low edges specifically to make feeding easier for short-nosed dogs and puppies. That reduces the risk of pets struggling to access food or tipping their heads in awkward positions while eating. The listing’s breed recommendation is for small breed size.

What the listing doesn’t specify: certifications, BPA or toxin testing details, and whether the product has undergone any specific safety testing beyond the "Food Grade Silicone" claim. If you have a pet with material sensitivities or strict ingredient/certification needs, the listing does not provide those documents.

Who this is for / who should skip

Below I break down fit by pet type and use case. I rely strictly on the listing details and owner feedback summarized in the product notes to make these fit recommendations.

Best fit

• Small dogs and puppies — the listing recommends small puppy plates and small breed size, and the 330 ml capacity supports smaller portioning.
• Flat-faced / brachycephalic breeds — the shallow, wide design is specifically cited as suitable for Shih Tzu, French Bulldog, and similar faces with short noses.
• Owners who want a low-profile, spill-resistant plate — the listing and owner feedback note the plate is stable and doesn’t slide across floors easily.
• People who like multipurpose silicone tableware — the listing mentions household uses (candy dish, salad bowl), and owners report travel convenience and easy cleaning.

Who should skip or be cautious

• Anyone needing official material certifications — the listing claims "Food Grade Silicone" but does not list third-party certification documents in the product data.
• Households that need absolute clarity on dishwasher use — the listing’s bullets claim dishwasher-safe while the formal care instruction says "Hand Wash Only." Confirm on the product page or with the seller if dishwasher-safe is required for you.
• Larger breeds or heavy chewers — the listing targets small breeds and small puppies; while some owners reported it worked for a medium dog, the product dimensions and capacity are small compared with bowls designed for medium or large dogs.

Verdict

For small and flat-faced dogs, the BNOSDM Silicone Shallow Plate lines up with what I look for: low rim, wide eating area, a compact 330 ml capacity, and the flexibility and grip of silicone that many owners appreciate. The real-world feedback in the product notes backs up claims of stability and durability — owners note the bowls stay put, are easy to clean, handled e-collar feeding, and didn’t break in regular household use.

However, the official listing is inconsistent in two areas you should resolve before buying: unit count (bullets say two plates while specs list 1 piece) and care instructions (bullets claim dishwasher & microwave safe while Product Care Instructions state "Hand Wash Only"). Both are explicit fields in the listing and the contradictions are factual details you should verify with the seller or product page to avoid surprises.

Check before you buy

• Confirm unit count: the listing contains conflicting information about whether you receive one or two plates.
• Confirm cleaning & heating guidance: the feature bullets say dishwasher- and microwave-safe, but the Product Care Instructions read "Hand Wash Only." Ask the seller which is current.
• Match capacity to portion size: capacity is specified as 330 ml — make sure that suits your pet’s normal serving size.
• Choose the color you prefer: available color options on the listing include Yellow, Beige, Brown, Green, Light Grey, Light Brown, Red, Grey, and Orange-Pink.
• Check breed fit: listing recommends small breeds and flat-faced dogs; if you own a medium or large dog, consider whether the listed dimensions and 330 ml capacity meet your needs.
• Note warranty: warranty description in the listing is "Not," indicating no warranty is specified.

Bottom line: If you have a small or brachycephalic dog and want a shallow, easy-to-clean plate, this one is worth considering — but verify the unit count and the seller’s care recommendation before ordering so you know exactly what you’re getting and how to care for it.
