SureFlap the Microchip Cat Flap

All I can say is WOW! Easy to use cat flap and a great sturdy design. Both myself and my cats are really happy!!

This has got to be the best ?70 I have ever spent!! It has saved me at least that much in cat food not being eaten by the neighbourhood cats in the last 6 months. An absolute must - have recommended it to all of my cat owning friends.

We had trouble with all the neighbours cats entering the house. So this item was a godsend. Easy to install and set up. Our cats were a little frightened of the noise at first but soon adapted. Definitely worth the money.

We went away for a couple of nights and on returning home found that a local cat was breaking in and fighting with our two every night - the mess was appalling! This is the only lockable cat flap we have used that works every time. It closes magnetically and doesn`t stick open like others we`ve had, and there`s no worry about them losing their collars and having to replace any tags. The only downside is that it tends to eat the batteries and the `low battery` LED flashes way too early - we tend to leave it

Easy to set up and works perfectly for our 2 year old who has a modern chip. It hasn`t worked so well for our 10 year old who has a 10 digit older style chip. To begin with it wasn`t picking up her chip. I`ve found that raising the step-up in front of the flap has helped. Maybe this gets her head and neck into a better position for the reader. Now she is getting in OK.

This upgrade is really working well. We had the old version with the little grey nobs that our cat found out how to operate it... The service of the company is just the best - upgrade to new model for free. This product gets my warmest recommendations

Very good quality, easy to install with clear instructions, simple to set it to recognise the chip and straight after our cat happily went through it once it reverts to normal operation so the lovely black cat who thought our house was his has gone back home. Just need something to stop him bringing mice in now. And it was delivered within 2 days of ordering.

We brought this cat flap on recommendation from a friend as we have a problem with a strange cat coming into the house and scaring our 4 ladies. The cat flap was fitted in less than half an hour and was really easy to programme. It recognised our cats straight away. I can go to work tomorrow knowing our cats will be safe and sound.

We looked at every kind of cat flap, we couldn`t have magnetic (next door have one), the reviews for infra-red were terrible, and then came across Sureflap. It is brill, we have 2 cats it learnt them instantly. I was a little worried that our younger cat (who is a wimp) wouldn`t use it - he was 1st through!! Very easy to fit, looks good, the click is not too noisy, worth every penny! 2 happy cats, 1 happy owner!!

How lovely it is to arrive to a home without the smell of cat wee. Our visitor has ceased visiting and at long last our cat can relax. Easy enough to get going - the door is a bit noisey but our cat has got used to it. Had to get it fitted by a glazier although we were told we could do it ourselves!!

Needed to replace old cat flap, but most of my cats have the older type chip, with 3 different types of chips fitted between them all, these caused no problems with the flap, and even the cat whose chip is now 1/2 way her shoudler it still works.

It has already stopped at least 1 cat coming in as well.

Only fault I could find is that the `switch` for closing door feels very flimsy, and creaks when turned.

At first glance the Sureflap product might seem expensive for a catflap but the peace of mind it provides is worth every penny. A neighbour`s cat was entering my house every day whilst I was at work, turfing Merlin out, eating his food and even sleeping on my bed to the point that Merlin was becoming withdrawn and nervous in his own home. As Merlin is unable to wear a collar I was desperate to find a suitable solution when I stumbled across Sureflap. I can substantiate the manufacturer claims of robustness, durability and of course capbility. The latest model has added an draught excluder around the flap which had been highlighted by previous reviews so the company obviously listen to their customers. It`s a great piece of kit which has given Merlin back his place of sanctuary as well as his dinner and me my peace of mind. Simple to install, set up and use. A tip: if your cat is one who usually rockets up the garden and straight through the flap you may want to place a planter or log just outside the flap for a while so your cat learns to slow down, go round and calmly enter, this will give the device time to read your cat`s microchip and release the catch - it is a pretty swift and quiet mechanism, however I doubt it would stand up to a cat coming at it at Mach 7! This flap is inspired. Buy it.

Great design without any fuss and easy to fit.

I bought this catflap after my young female started getting unwanted attention from a local Tom. These flaps were much better than the magnetic types as the microcip in their neck can`t be lost! I was impressed at how quickly the catflap would lock shut behind her keeping out other cats. Well worth the money.

If you are troubled by visiting cats you will automatically go for the Staywell magnet flap. Trouble is half the cats in my neighbourhood have the same magnet which defeats the object. Plus they need a collar: my cat is an enthusiastic but hopless climber so I worry about him getting caught with a collar. I had him microchipped (with RSPCA in your own home for 12 great option much cheaper and less stressful than the vets) and bought this flap. The brilliant bit for me is that it is exactly the same dimnesions as the Staywell flap so you just slot it in; takes minutes. The synchronising takes seconds and our young cat is flying in and out of it the same day. Is much quieter than the Staywell flap. All in all and absoutely brilliant buy.

Our elderly cat was being bullied by the neighbours cats coming in. We bought this, however, it didn`t work due to some metal in our door. I contacted sureflap and they were fantastic and sent me a newly developed catflap which resolved the problem. EXCELLENT customer service and amazing product. Cannot recommend it (and them) highly enough.

We have house sitters for 3 months as we are away on business, and though I am sure they will be great, I needed to know the cats would be in after dark. The black cat was hit by a car last year. I really do feel better knowing they can`t go out in the dark now. The flap was complicated, instructions aren`t terribly clear, but once you get the hang of it, it is fairly straight forward and as an item it is robust. I also had to buy a microchip and seal it into a collar for one cat as it didn`t recognise her American chip - we thought this would be the case though, so it was fine. A really great product, and good support.

What a fantastic invention. We used to have at least 4 other cats coming into the house. Now my cats are happy!!!!

Bought this cat flap for our 7 month old cat. He was trying to go in and out of it before I had chance to put the batteries in!! It is so easy to use. The click noise did not bother him at all. Only down side is that he rushed through his flap and another cat chased him in. I would not of thought that this is likely to happen often though. I really like it as I didn`t want him to wear a collar. I would recommend this flap to anyone. It`s worth every penny.

My little kitten was ready to go out and I took ages trying to decide what to get, well I am glad I waited, he loves his Sureflap! So do I no more chasing him round the garden in the rain at 6.30am trying to get him in before I have to go out! Even the DIY phobic husband fitted it no problems! The easy fitting in itself was worth the money !

This item is great. It has cut down the cost of food and I know exactly what my cat has eaten. I would recomend this to other people.

Having had my cat lose 3 collars (and therefore catflap magnets) over a period of a few months, I decided it was probably more economical to pay the extra for a new catflap and remove the need for a collar at all. We had a bit of a job getting him to go through it for the first time so that it would recognise his chip, but it`s all been fine since - and the fur round his neck is starting to grow back too! He`s a big cat so I was worried that the standard size of this catflap might be a bit small, but there`s no problem (apart from the usual one of any cat expecting humans to open doors for them!!) It was easy to install, easy to set up and I`d recommend it to anyone.

Easy to replace our old flap and the cats quickly got used to it. No more strays stealing all the food!

Great item, 2year warranty is also reassuring

I fitted this cat flap for my new kitten, and once she was allowed out has had no problems using it at all. It`s great that I know that only she can get in. Well worth the extra cost over a standard cat flap, and no need for a collar!
