CUSTOMER REVIEW



Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program (What's this?) I've had battery operated soap dispensers in the past with mixed results. Many ate batteries for breakfast, wouldn't work with certain thicker soaps or were inconsistent in the amount of soap dispensed. In addition, most came with no see thru reservoir to easily determine the amount of soap left.



So far this one is the most consistent and probably the most solid design I've come across. It's not only well built but even though it's mainly plastic all the parts fit securely with no hastily finished edges to cut.



About the only downfall is a near zero amount of documentation other than a note pretty much telling you not to use soap with beads or other foreign "eye candy" floating in the mix. Fortunately it's easy to figure out. Pop 4 batteries in the bottom and fill it with soap. A handy sticker on the top tells you what button turns it off for cleaning.



I do like the fact it's not overly sensitive. Your hand must be under the spout in order to activate it unlike one previous model I had where getting within 4 or 5 inches of the unit would cause it to spit needless amounts of soap onto the counter.



Originally I thought it wasn't giving out enough soap but it's just the right amount. Apparently those cheapo pumps you normally get soft soap in are designed to give you too much, probably to guarantee you keep buying more.



About the only other negative is the pricing but I do realize you get what you pay for and the extra cost here is because the unit is well built and equally well designed.
