Why consider it
You already cook homemade food and want one appliance to take care of several preparation steps and larger batches.
Aubenord recommendation
Total Pet Kitchen Pet Food Maker | 18-Cup Multicooker | UK
Want to make homemade dog food in one machine instead of juggling a pan, mixer and separate prep tools?
Total Pet Kitchen combines cooking, grinding, mixing and dispensing in one 18-cup countertop appliance. Its 4.5-quart pot and four cooking programmes are designed for batch preparation from fresh ingredients.
For owners who already have a properly formulated homemade-feeding plan, the appeal is practical: one machine handles several preparation steps and can make batch cooking less cumbersome. It does not make a recipe nutritionally complete, and UK buyers should confirm the 120 V electrical specification before ordering.

HOMEMADE FEEDING PREP
One machine for cooking, grinding, mixing and dispensing.
Total Pet Kitchen is a countertop pet-food maker designed to combine several meal-preparation steps in one appliance. The current Amazon UK listing describes an 18-cup bowl, four automatic programmes and a large-batch format.
It is relevant if you already prepare homemade food and want to reduce the number of pans, mixers and other tools involved. It does not make a recipe nutritionally complete by itself.

There is a published-specification mismatch. Total Pet Kitchen’s own product page separately lists 21.65 × 13.66 × 14.25 in and 23.81 lb under “Additional information”, while its owner’s manual/how-it-works material uses the model reference YPF2201. We have not tried to guess which figures are packaging versus appliance dimensions. Check the current retailer listing or manufacturer documentation before ordering or building fixed storage around the unit.
COUNTERTOP FIT
Measure the space before you order.
Use the retailer dimensions graphic as a practical countertop reference: approximately 26 cm deep × 37.5 cm wide × 30.5 cm high.
- Allow extra height above 30.5 cm so the lid can open fully.
- Leave clear space in front for the dispensing bowl and normal serving movement.
- Do not build a tight fixed cubby around these figures until you have confirmed the current unit dimensions with the seller, because the manufacturer’s own additional-information dimensions differ.
- Plan for a substantial appliance: Amazon UK lists 8.5 kg, while the manufacturer separately lists 23.81 lb / about 10.8 kg.
MATERIALS & CARE
A useful appliance only if cleaning it is realistic.
The retailer lists a plastic body and stainless-steel blade. It also shows “Hand Wash” under care instructions while separately marking the product as dishwasher safe. Those statements are not specific enough to assume the whole unit or every removable part can go in a dishwasher.
Check the current manual or seller guidance for exactly which removable components are dishwasher safe. Never immerse the powered base.
THE QUICK DECISION
Who is this actually for?
What to check first
Electrical compatibility, counter space, cleaning instructions and whether the 18-cup batch format suits the amount of food you make.
Who should be cautious
Owners changing to homemade feeding without a balanced recipe, or anyone assuming “sold on Amazon UK” automatically means this 120 V model is UK-mains compatible.
AUBENORD VERDICT
An interesting batch-prep machine — but the UK voltage question has to be resolved first.
The concept is strong: cook, grind, mix and dispense in one 18-cup appliance. For UK buyers, however, the current 120 V specification is a material buying issue, not a footnote. We would only consider ordering once the seller has confirmed exactly how this model is intended to be powered and warranted in the UK.
And remember: the machine prepares food; it does not formulate a complete diet. If homemade meals will make up a meaningful part of your dog’s diet, use an appropriately formulated recipe.
