Product information says it flips back to allow for eating/drinking. Has anyone figured out how to do this?

If you purchased the correct size collar, it should not be necessary to flip it back for eating & drinking. The collar should not extend past the nose but should be slightly shorter so the dog can eat & drink when necessary without having to fold it back. Having to take it off and put it back on 5 or 6 times a day -- every time he wants a drink or to feed twice a day is areal hassle and some dogs will not stand patiently to let you put it back on. Better to try to get the correct length or cut off the one you have to a good length for your dog. You might have to sew the new edge if it looks like it will unravel after being cut -- or use some duct tape folded over the cut edge?

Yes. You can fold over the edge of it, like a cuff. Since the whole thing is flexible, you can fold over a couple of inches or even halfway down the side of it. It might be a little tricky to get started, but just keep going. Fold a little bit away from the dog's face and keep going around.

Nope. I just take it off of him when I feed him and when he goes to his water dish. He stands very patiently to have it put back on.

I use a rotation method. Holding the case vertically, place your first finger on the back of the clasp and thumb of the same hand on the front, then rotate pushing your first finger forward and your thumb back toward your hand. It's a twisting motion like opening a soda bottle with just your first finger and thumb.

The knob is not to be turned. It is stationary to give you a solid grip. Push the small teeth under the knob into the piece of food and then just push the knob back and forth.

There is a knob on the bottom of the chair you can twist to tighten or loosen. I have yet to use this myself so I can't info you as to how well it works. My advice is to loosen it a quarter turn at a time to assure you don't accidentally fall backwards. I hope this helps

I use this for large drinks all the time. There is an adjustable sliding tab on each holder that you adjust to the size of your cup then push it back in to lock it in place.

It unscrews. It took me a while to figure it out because the others lift off. If it gets stuck, gently use the part on top that closes the drinking opening like a handle and turn it to the left - remember this little saying - lefty loosey - righty tighty. It never fails me. Enjoy it.

No..this is not a flip top product. Unscrew the lid and then you can drink. A little tricky if you are driving.

Its a little tricky. You have to close the lid and flip it over. And there is a little tab you have to slide over. It helps if you have a pen or screw driver to put in the tab, to help slide it over.

Your center support bar is upside down, unscrew it and flip it over. The handle bars are suppose to extend outward.

This is the reverse of standard usability and it is a design flaw in this product, in my opinion, so for others reading this, take it into consideration. I got used to it and no longer think about it. Mine was installed by a plumber, and he said nothing about changing it to standard direction-turning, so I assumed it wasn't an option.

Ok, I'm really bewildered here. Y'all are saying the newer models have a flap to prevent this. But mine is only about a month old, and it doesn't have this flap. It would be great if it did - one of my cats can get food all day/night, and it's not helping with the portion control idea. She's just eating all the time. I'm trying to think of a makeshift way of adding my own, but why is it that some of you have one actually included on yours?

I have no problem with it. If you flip it, it goes from a 60 degree angle to about a 45 angle, giving more of a "laid back" feeling. I can sleep just fine when I am experiencing nights with acid reflux.

The "flip" feature that allows the stroller to reverse facing means that you can't attach a cup holder for you. There is a bar in front of the child's seat that might allow a generic table or cup to be attached. The bar is a cylinder covered with padding. The reversing feature is awesome by allowing you to get the sun out of your child's eyes.

They're right. I find pushing the button on the side of the lid, then flip down the metal clip like device, flip up the top and you are ready to go. Now the thing on the bottom is a pain and fairly useless but I guess they had to go that extra step. I like it a lot, Don't get me wrong. The sleek design makes it less conspicuous and fits in cup holders pretty good. Let us know how it turns out. Peace...

You might have the tray on the wrong way. Try and turn it around. I had the same problem.

It's attached to the lid of the mug which screws off for cleaning (and separates into 2 pieces plus a silicone ring/gasket). With one hand you can press the button and the lid springs up and back and stays there until you close it. It won't flip down while you drink. I saw some reviewers complain that some of the lid/latch mechanism interferes with drinking but I have not found this to be the case. I love this mug. If you want hot liquids to stay very hot for several hours, this is for you. It's beautifully designed. My only complaint is that it has a high center of gravity. So it you have a big dog with tail that sweeps items off a coffee table... then maybe another mug :-)

there should be a turn cap on the plastic cup that you fill with water and solution.that is then put upside down into the unit.
