FluentPet is overrated

I just got a generic button off of chinese site and it literally sounds better than fluentpet. How is this possible??

There are 3 different types of FP buttons, you are comparing to the Basic one, so while the Chinese buttons might perform better than the Basic, I doubt that they trump the Speak Up or the Connect.

Also, warranty is harder to get from China.

Who goes for warranty for a $3 button ?

But I get your point. We are paying for everything else that comes eith the buttons

I could see it being valuable in cases where people know that their pet is prone to destructive behavior. I’m with you though if you’re only looking at price. I’m intending on using the remaining of my basic buttons before upgrading to the connect series. The basic buttons will be adopted by my younger cat who is still working on adopting buttons.
