Super Design Foldable Elevated Dog Bowls Review

Intro — why I tested this

I travel with dogs a lot and I’m picky about feeding setups: I want something light, tidy, and actually useful for medium and large breeds. The Super Design Foldable Elevated Dog Bowls caught my eye because it pairs a rigid elevated stand with collapsible silicone double bowls, and the listing promises portability, non-slip stability, and a 5-cup capacity per bowl. In this review I break down what it is, how it performs in daily use (at home and on the road), the construction and safety details I care about, who should buy it — and who should skip it.

What it is — first look and specs

At a glance this is a portable elevated feeding station that includes a molded plastic stand and two collapsible silicone bowls. The manufacturer and brand are SUPERDESIGN / Super Design, model name Foldable Elevated Dog Bowls. The stand is described as foldable and portable, and each silicone bowl holds up to 5 cups (approximately 1200 mL). The listing targets medium and large dogs and notes the product is meant for indoor and outdoor use.

In daily use — hands-on testing

I’ve used this setup on a mix of short road trips, backyard meals, and a handful of camping outings. I also paid attention to how the unit behaved when folded, how easy the bowls were to pop in and out for cleaning, and whether the elevated design genuinely made mealtime easier for bigger dogs.

Setup and portability

• The stand folds flat and the legs tuck down so the whole unit becomes compact. That makes it straightforward to slide into a trunk, a tote, or a travel kit without taking up much space.
• When folded, the legs create a small carry handle. The design is intentionally lightweight — it’s not heavy-duty metal — so it’s travel-friendly and convenient to lift with one hand.
• On a few trips I kept the silicone bowls inside the folded stand for transport. They stay nested and the unit sits flatter than a set of rigid bowls, which is a real space-saver for packing.

Daily feeding and drinking

• Once opened, the stand gives the silicone bowls structure. The bowls can be popped in and out quickly for filling or washing, which is great for camping or quick refills during a long drive.
• The no-spill edge on the stand helps catch splashes and drips from water, so floors stay cleaner than with free-standing bowls. With enthusiastic drinkers I saw less water spread around the feeding area.
• Capacity is generous at 5 cups per bowl — plenty of room for a meal plus a separate water bowl for medium and most large dogs. For heavy drinkers you’ll still be refilling during the day, but that’s expected with larger dogs.

Stability and behavior under use

• The stand is plastic but the base is designed to be non-slip. On most indoor floors and campsite tables it stayed put while dogs ate and drank. The rubberized feet give decent traction and reduce scooting.
• The collapsible bowls fit snugly in the stand so they don’t flop or twist while being used. There’s a tactile ‘pop’ when the silicone seats into the stand that makes them feel secure.
• A couple of times while carrying the folded unit the bowls shifted a little, and I found it helpful to secure them with a strap or tuck them tightly to avoid accidental popping-out during bumpy rides.

Cleaning and maintenance

• The silicone bowls pop out for washing and can be collapsed into shallower positions for rinsing. In my use they were easy to rinse by hand and dried quickly when left open to air.
• Dishwasher-safe silicone was mentioned in extended hands-on notes, so tossing the silicone bowls on the top rack is an option if you prefer machine cleaning.
• Because the bowls collapse, they can trap moisture when folded closed. I make it a point to dry them completely before stowing to avoid any chance of mildew or mold.

Materials & build quality

The unit is a two-part system: a rigid plastic stand and collapsible silicone bowls. That combination is what gives the product its portability without sacrificing a degree of structure while in use.

Stand

• Hard plastic construction keeps weight low so this is genuinely useful for travel and camping. The plastic feels molded, not flimsy, but it’s not heavy-duty metal either.
• Design details I appreciated: the legs form a compact footprint when opened, and the base includes a rim that works as a no-spill edge to catch stray food and water.
• A couple of hands-on impressions noted concern about repeated folding stressing the hinge over time; it’s worth being mindful when opening and closing frequently.

Bowls (silicone)

• Collapsible silicone gives the bowls their space-saving benefit. In use they provide a surprisingly firm eating surface once seated in the stand and can be popped to two different depths — shallower or deeper — to match how your dog eats.
• Silicone cleans easily and doesn’t hold odors after washing. Collapsible design speeds drying when left open, but folded wet it can trap moisture.
• Note: silicone is chewable. If your dog is a power chewer, the silicone bowls can be bitten and damaged as seen in some long-term experiences.

Colors available

• Gray (listed color)

Safety considerations

Safety is always my top priority. This product has thoughtful features — elevated design, non-slip feet, removable bowls — but also a few caveats to be mindful of depending on your dog and how you use the unit.

Positive safety points

• Elevated design: The listing describes the elevation as reducing cervical pressure and promoting smoother swallowing, which is especially noted as suitable for medium to large and senior dogs. The elevated position helps dogs keep their head and neck straighter while eating.
• Non-slip base: Rubberized feet and a stable footprint make scooting and spilling less likely than with loose bowls on slick floors.
• No-spill rim: The stand’s outer edge catches drips and small spills from water and food, which reduces slip hazards and mess around the feeding area.

Potential risks and what to watch for

• Chewing risk: The silicone bowls are chewable. If your dog is an enthusiastic chewer, the bowls can be damaged over time. Don’t leave a chewer unsupervised with the bowls in a way that invites gnawing.
• Hinge stress: The stand is plastic and folds for transport. Repeated aggressive open/close cycles could stress the hinge area in the long run — handle it with normal care and don’t force the mechanism.
• Moisture build-up: Collapsible bowls can trap moisture if folded closed before fully drying. That can lead to mildew or mold if left wet; dry completely before stowing.
• Carry security: When folded, the bowls can shift slightly in transit. I recommend securing the folded unit with a strap or keeping it upright in a bag so the bowls don’t pop out accidentally on bumpy rides.

Who this is for — and who should skip it

This design targets a clear use case: pet parents who need an elevated, portable feeding station for medium and large dogs. Below I break down fit and use-case scenarios.

Best fit (buy if any of these describe you)

• You camp, road-trip, or travel with a medium or large dog and want a compact, packable feeder.
• You want the benefits of an elevated bowl without lugging a heavy metal stand — light, collapsible convenience matters.
• Your dog is a moderate eater/drinker who benefits from a raised bowl and won’t chew the silicone.
• You like easy cleanup: removable silicone bowls that can be rinsed or put on a dishwasher top rack.
• You want a two-bowl system (food + water) that folds flat for storage.

Skip this if…

• Your dog is a power chewer that will likely bite and destroy silicone bowls — this product isn’t built to be a chew toy.
• You need an industrial, permanent feeding station — the stand is plastic and made for portability, not as a heavy, fixed fixture.
• You’re strictly shopping for small-breed-only feeding gear; the product is positioned for medium and large dogs and may be taller than ideal for tiny breeds (though some small dogs can reach it).

Value and real-world durability

Because this is a travel-oriented combo of plastic and silicone, the value hinges on how much you prize portability. The setup consolidates two bowls into one compact unit and the 5-cup capacity per bowl is generous for medium-large pets. The trade-offs are the plastic stand (lighter and less heavy-duty than metal) and the chewable nature of silicone.

• Good value if you need a travel-friendly, elevated feeder that folds flat and stores easily.
• Expect decent longevity with normal care: watch the hinge, dry the bowls before stowage, and don’t let chewers gnaw on silicone.
• For a stationary, heavy-use home setup where a dog leans on bowls or chews frequently, a sturdier metal stand with stainless bowls is a better long-term choice (not what this product is designed to be).

Verdict — final take

The Super Design Foldable Elevated Dog Bowls does exactly what it promises: it’s a portable, two-bowl elevated feeding station aimed at medium and large dogs. The combination of a molded plastic stand and collapsible silicone bowls makes this unit lighter and far more packable than rigid elevated setups, while still offering stability and a no-spill rim that helps keep feeding areas tidier.

It’s a strong pick if you need a travel-first solution that performs well for medium and many large dogs. The two main caveats are chewability of silicone and the fact that the stand is plastic rather than metal — both trade-offs made to keep the whole system compact and lightweight.

Check before you buy — quick checklist

• Confirm your dog fits the medium-to-large target: the manufacturer recommends medium and large breeds.
• Do you prioritize portability over a heavy, permanent fixture? If yes, this design fits that need.
• If your dog chews things, plan for supervision or choose a non-chew feeding setup instead.
• Plan to fully dry the collapsible bowls before folding to avoid moisture issues.
• If you’ll carry the folded unit in a bag, consider securing it with a strap to prevent the bowls from shifting in transit.

Final pros & cons (short)

• Pros: portable and space-saving; two 5-cup silicone bowls; elevated design for medium/large dogs; non-slip base and no-spill rim; bowls removable and easy to clean.
• Cons: plastic stand not as heavy-duty as metal; silicone is chewable; folded unit may shift slightly unless secured; moisture can be trapped if bowls are stowed wet.

Check before you buy — quick facts recap

• Each bowl capacity: 5 cups (approx 1200 mL).
• Materials: plastic stand, silicone bowls.
• Designed for: medium and large dogs; listed for indoor and outdoor use.
• Color listed on the product page: Gray.

If you want a travel-friendly elevated feeding station that doesn’t take up trunk space and works well for medium and large dogs, this is one of the more thoughtful collapsible solutions I’ve used. If your priorities are chew-proof durability and a permanent heavy-duty fixture, consider a dedicated metal stand and stainless bowls instead.
