Default Elevated Bowls A Good Idea?

Do you use them?

I've read the pros & cons. I guess theyre supposed to be more comfortable & less air intake.

Whats your feeling on the subject ??

Everything I've read says elevated bowls increase the risk of bloat. We have never and will never use them for that reason alone.
