simplehuman 8 oz. Touch-Free Sensor Liquid Soap Pump Dispenser with Soap Sample, Brushed Nickel

These are the best dispensers I’ve ever seen or had. I wanted an automatic soap dispenser and I got one that was nice and it took batteries. It worked decent problem was it needed new batteries ever two weeks witch is ridiculous. So I did research watch a ton of videos remand came across this. It’s so expensive I was hesitant but it said and reviews said the battery life was up to a year so I broke down and got in on a sale and it was the best purchase I’ve ever made. I own both the battery and reachable versions and they are both premium quality the battery last almost if not a year I don’t know exactly because I’ve only had to replace or charge them like three times in the few years I’ve had them. I don’t know how they do it especially the one with the regular batteries. They last forever and work so well. I love the newer rechargeable versions more because it’s smaller profile and no batteries. It never gets clogged and sprays out the side and it gives a nice amount of soap I like the one that I can control but my husband likes the one that if you put your hand lower you get a lot and higher for less. The motion detection is great but as with most you have to find it’s sweet spot but the newer rechargeable is not finicky and works as soon as you put your hand under it. The battery one has to be a bit closer. They also look nice with the color options and stainless steel. One note I wanted to add because I see people saying it won’t charge or the older one won’t work. With the plug in I found it won’t charge if it’s not with the correct plug and I only can charge it directly in my usb wall socket so this may be why some don’t charge. As for the battery model. I had mine stop working I’ve also had it pump soap out until it was empty and I figured out why at least for me. I had washed the outside down as I’m sure many do and that little hole in the top I don’t know if it’s an air holier if it’s for sensors or whatever. But I used a very wet rag because I was essentially washing it and water got in the whole and the sensor is right below that hole so I figured that is why it stopped working because water is on the sensor or something like that. Once it started to dry the next day it started working but then I came back and it was going off and off until it was empty still must have had water in the sensor area so it was reading like it was seeing something. So the point is wipe the top with a wet rag but a rung out dryer rags not dripping wet so that you don’t get water in the home. Eventually it dried out and all went back to working great and is still working to this day. These are the best soap dispensers.

We had the older model of this exact same product, which finally, after perhaps 10 years, stopped pumping, even with fresh batteries. The light would flash, etc., but the motor did not operate. Not a bad run, really. We liked the design and performance of the old one, with some caveats that also apply to the new one, which I'll cover below. Just put into service, the new soap pump is working as expected, so no complaints there. I'll get back to you if it fails before 10 years. Differences in the new one: While shaped similarly and styled essentially identically, it is considerably shorter, so may not hold as much soap (though it is close, if not equal). The old one stood regally behind the sink, perhaps even imposingly. The new one squats submissively. The photo on the Amazon listing kind of looked shorter, so that was not a TOTAL surprise. It's still tall enough, and some might find its less imposing and magnificent height less of a distraction, sink-side. The new one has a QR code under the soap lid to reorder soap; the old one was from the stone age where you had to find and order your own soap. The new one has a small printed branding label near the bottom front, not TOO noticeable, while the old one either didn't, or spilled soap over the years had dissolved it off. I like no label. Like the old one, the battery insertion icons on the bottom are VERY confusing. Do you put them in as shown on the embossed image next to the battery lid, or do the batteries look that way once inserted (which gives opposite polarity results)? The instruction manual had a tiny photo which, once examined closely, made it clear (it was opposite my guess looking at the bottom label). I got battery polarity wrong a time or two with the old one, and it didn't damage the unit, it just didn't work. Generally, when replacing batteries, I made careful note of how the old ones were inserted, as it was working that way, rather than lifting it high and peering at the bottom where the battery lid and label are located. (And yes, the batteries tend to run out JUST AFTER you've refilled it with soap, so not only are you not able to turn it over to insert them, but you've got to be careful about tipping it too much.) Battery replacement inconvenience is a minor quibble with both the old and new models. Put the battery port on the bottom, out of sight, and its inconvenient. I'm fine with it how it is - there are trade-offs in life. (OK, MAYBE you can turn it over with soap in it, see below.) Now for my complaint, which is not really a product review, but an Amazon (and Amazon customer) review: It was missing a critical part, right out of the box. I noticed, as I opened the box, which appeared new and undamaged, that the pump was not securely packed in the box. Later careful examination revealed that the bottom box insert was on top of the pump, and that the top packing insert was missing. Clue: this is an unused, but returned unit. Everything else was there, including the instruction book and sample packet of soap. Second BIG clue: Turning it over to insert the batteries (no soap in it yet, so this rare event is still safe, though the top soap lid does have a seal, so IN PRINICIPLE you could turn it over when filled with soap) - NO BATTERY CAP!!!! The cap was not in the box, in the packaging, etc. and it had NOT fallen out a few seconds earlier when I opened the box. This cap fits securely, so it didn't just fall out of its working location. Maybe they left it out in manufacture? Nope. Another clue that this was a returned unit. Time to set up a return with Amazon? Not yet. We have the old one, now headed for the trash. Maybe the battery door (which has a rubber O-ring seal) is the same? Amazingly, it is. (The soap door, on the top, is NOT the same, so if that had been missing we were SOOL.) This happens with Amazon fairly often: someone returns an item, often a perfectly good item, but first, thoughtfully throws away an important small part, accessory, or instructions, etc.. Amazon warehouse, seeing a superficially OK-looking package with SOMETHING like the product in it, just restocks it and ships it out as new to another buyer (rather than inspecting it and selling it discounted as a return, which they sometimes do, if the packaging is damaged or missing.) I'm 100% sure that Amazon would have replaced this soap dispenser if we'd have complained, but they still should avoid this random restocking of returned items. Pretty much every time I've gotten an item that had signs of having been returned, there has been a problem, sometimes one I could solve (like this) and sometimes requiring a return/replace. I've had it happen more than once on the same product, for frequently returned items. Also, Amazon needs to get a better class of customer, who are more careful when returning items. As we've seen with other retailers over the years, after enough abuse of their return policy, it eventually becomes more restrictive. So work with me here people: only return items when you really need to, not on an inspect/try and return basis, and return everything, so it can be inspected and resold. So: good soap dispenser, but dodgy Amazon returned product handling. Amazon will take care of that last problem if it happens to bite you, so buy the dispenser. It is the best looking of those I've seen, and works fine.

I do a lot of work around the house with my hands and so I find myself washing many times per day beyond the obvious trips to the commode. Clean the cat litter? wash. Take out the trash? wash. Before a meal? wash. Because of this, I appreciate a good soap dispenser. I originally was looking for a foaming soap dispenser which this is NOT because I always found that the liquid soap comes out so viscus that its hard to rub it all in. Thus when you wash you are just washing off the soap and it has not had its chance to do the job on your skin. Foaming soap fixes that problem but I just could not find an automated one. They are all pump style OR built in which I thought was over kill for this. And so for a long time I dealt with cruddy little foam soap hand pumps that were always flopping around on the counter top and had to be refilled often because in all that liquid there really wasn't much soap. My first non foaming automated soap dispense was this one by "SimpleOne" brand. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MU1K9JO?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00 It was cheaper and had good reviews. I got it in and I gave it a "B" grade for 3 main reasons. - It's hand proximity sensor was not tuned well. You had to hold your hand just right. - When it did dispense, it gave a bit too much soap. And so I was washing unused soap down the drain. - It was kind of slow to dispense. It would take perhaps 3/4 of a second to do the squirt. No that is not much time and no it is not a bad performance but its amazing how the small things add or detract from the user experience. I did like it that it had a big light that told you when to dispense but to be honest I don't like the style much. As a second choice I went for the SimpleHuman. I was expecting a larger unit but it is about the same size as the other unit maybe 6-7 " tall. This unit seems like it has a lower center of gravity. Other things I like about SimpleHuman are - The see through reservoir stops me from having to speculatively check for soap. I don't want it running out when needed and so without the see through feature I would have to pull the lid on the other one to check soap level. - SimpleHuman seems like the nozzle is just a bit further away from the body of the unit than SimpleOne. I never touch the body of SimpleHuman in order to get it to dispense but I routinely have to do so on the other one. - SimpleHuman nozzle really is drip free and the sensing mechanism is better tuned. You don't have to move around in its range to get it to sense your hand. - But the best two features I save for last: 1) PORTION CONTROL. Folks, this is simply worth the extra $15 between SimpleOne and SimpleHuman. I was able to dial it in to give me just the right shot of soap and if I change soap type I can dial it in easily again. This is my favorite feature of this unit and I will not buy any unit going forward that does not have this feature. 2) Soap ejection force. This may seem trivial but it really is my second fav feature on this unit. Instead of slow squirting the soap out over 3/4 of a second, this one literally shoots a dab of soap into your hand. The whole thing is over in less than 150 milliseconds. So you really don't even have to hold your hand in place you can just move into range and then back out and your hand will have soap in it. If you do that with SimpleOne then soap will be dispensed onto the countertop. SimpleHuman costs 50% more (as in $45 is 50% more than $30) but its worth it.

The soap dispenser works well. It's in the primary bathroom, it's what I wanted but there is one problem. When I use the remote for the bathroom TV to turn on, turn off, mute or increase of decrease the volume on the TV remote, it activates the soap dispenser and it squirts out soap when I don't want it to. I'm going through a lot of liquid soap that is going down the drain. I don't want to get rid of the dispenser or the TV so for folks in the same situation - be warned. The remote for your TV might also serve as a remote for your soap dispenser, when you don't want soap to dispense.

So it just occurred to me that I should write a review on this product, after having used the one I purchased for 7 years so far and still running. This is by far one of the best and most useful purchases I’ve made on Amazon. It’s something I use literally every single day, multiple times a day. This thing has never broken and still works just as it did the 1st day I bought it, which is pretty remarkable. I definitely did not expect a product like this to have actual longevity. Amount of soap dispensed is adjustable. Sensor works good. It takes 4 AA batteries. It goes through batteries surprisingly fast, or at least that’s what it feels like to me considering there’s 4 of them in there. But then again maybe that’s just a misconception in my mind, given that I do use it constantly, draining the juice. I would definitely recommend this product based on my experience. I was motivated to write this review because after 7 years of daily use and still being functional this thing definitely deserves a good word for others to consider. It doesn’t necessarily feel super high quality, it’s plastic and you seriously wouldn’t expect it to last. But, other than some normal decay from time and the constant use, it still dispenses soap just fine, every time. Would buy again. (And I hope I didn’t just jinx myself with this review 🤣)

I love this little soap dispenser! What I like about this particular model is the 8 oz size because it's enough soap to last awhile but it doesn't take up too much space on the counter. I also have this in white which I keep in our one bathroom and will be using this one in the kitchen. It's super easy to use - you just stick the batteries in and then fill it up with soap. If I could change anything, it would be that they would give it a dedicated on/off button. This way when you insert the batteries, it wouldn't automatically turn back on. So besides it looking nice and the whole sanitary aspect of not having to touch the dispenser anymore, the other reason I bought this is because with a traditional manual pump soap dispenser, my husband seems to think that pumping 3-4 times every time he washes his hands is fine. However he wastes more soap this way - something that should last a month is empty within 2 weeks which is ridiculous. I noticed the soap in the bathroom lasts longer so I'm hoping this will help him cut down on the excessive use of soap (this is how to get a stubborn husband to change their habit without them realizing it LOL). And because you can control how much or how little is dispensed each time, I even felt a little generous and hit the plus side a few extra times for him so a little more than normal soap is dispensed each time. Only time will tell if my plan works LOL. btw I didn't realize it but I have quite a few simplehuman products and love them all - I wish they weren't so expensive though! Besides this soap dispenser I also have the foam version which I keep in our 2nd bathroom and I'm please with both types. The foam version has a magnetic charger and is also easy to set up. $45 for a soap dispenser is a little outrageous but I save on buying soap refills (which means I'm also helping the environment too right?) and it looks nice on the counter and stays cleaner than the traditional manual dispenser so for me it's a win win. Also, I don't think you'd go wrong if you buy either color - the white one doesn't look like cheap plastic and it goes will with my bathroom that has a lot of white colors and the brushed silver looks great in the kitchen with the stainless steel sink.

This is by far, the best soap dispenser I have ever purchased. It has a nice design, but most of all it works perfectly with Dawn dish liquid soap. I’ve tried a few other dispensers and none of them were made to work with a thicker soap like Dawn. The dispensing is also really nice. It immediately pushes the soap out as you put your sponge under the sensor within one second. While other dispensers, take about 1 to 2 seconds. I highly recommend this dispenser for use in the kitchen.

I bought one of these dispensers and liked it so much that a few months later I bought another one. After six months the first one stopped working. I followed all of the instructions in the trouble shooting bulletin online (including replacing batteries, priming, hitting buttons, etc.) but nothing worked. When I tried to get soap out, the red light went on and no soap came out. I threw the dispenser out and bought a manual one. A couple of months later, the second went out and did the same thing. So each one of these automatic dispensers lasted about six months. When they worked they worked well. After the second died, instead of throwing it away like the first one, I felt like they should replace it or give me my money back. After all, they have a two year warranty on it. I tried to call them for several hours, but each time got a busy signal. Then I filled out the contact form and submitted it today. They are supposed to respond by the end of the next business day. One previous reviewer said he never received an answer. If I get an answer and they replace the unit, I will update this review. However, at the moment, I highly recommend that you don't buy this product if you want something that will last a reasonable amount of time. To me this is a high priced product which should mean it is of high quality. Not so! UPDATE: I received an email within two hours of submitting the contact form for customer support. There was a list of instructions to try to fix the problem. These instructions were different (more precise for the problem) than the trouble shooting tips online. I followed them and the problem was fixed. The email also said that if the instructions did not solve the issue, then they would assist me with a replacement product. I was impressed with the fast turnaround, but not very impressed that the unit needs frequent maintenance and that how to fix my problem was not documented anywhere. I have upgraded my original one star to three stars because of good customer support. FYI for any similar problem -- here are the instructions I was sent; 1) Reset the unit by pressing and holding the minus button down for 5 seconds; 2) Remove the batteries for 20 seconds; clean the inner battery cover with a clean cloth; 3) Place new batteries back into their respective position, checking to make sure they are in correctly; 4) Press the plus button to turn the unit on; 5) Once the unit is on, press and hold the plus button for 20 seconds or until the liquid is dispensed.

めっちゃいい。洗い物するのが面倒に感じない。洗剤を出すのが自動になっただけで、これほど洗い物の面倒くささを感じなくなるとは驚きです。二台かって一台はプレゼントしました。あとは耐久性がどうなのか。これのワンランク上のタイプが故障レビューが多かったのでこちらを購入したが、最低でも二年ぐらい使えるといいね。

It does come across as slightly larger in the pictures than in real life but that said it’s a nicely put together stylish item that looks very good in our new bathroom. The initial setting is great for us, giving just the right amount of soap to wash your hands, the buttons work well and you can increase the dispensed amount very easily. The soap doesn’t drip after dispensing and the nozzle cuts off the flow very well. I accidentally put the batteries in the wrong way round and the filled it with soap, it’s very hard to change the batteries with it full of soap! Also it would be nice to have an off switch as you have to be very careful when moving the unit, which can cause it to dispense accidentally! All that being said I like the unit and family have said how much they love it too!

Har inte hunnit använda den så länge men vet av andras erfarenhet att det är en bra produkt.

E' arrivato da pochi giorni e quindi l'utilizzo è limitato, ma per ora devo dire che sono molto soddisfatto. Mi sono fidato delle recensioni precedenti ed ho scartato prodotti più economici, ma meno validi o meno pratici (per esempio il serbatoio trasparente permette di valutare in anticipo quando ricaricare il sapone). Il sapone viene erogato in "dosi", vale a dire che l'erogazione non è continua tenendo la mano sotto (il che evita fastidiosi sgoccciolii di sapone), ma per averne di più bisogna togliere la mano e rimetterla sotto La dose è regolabile con i tasti "+" e "-" e contemporaneamente alla pressione dei tasti di regolazione si può testare lo stato delle batteria: si accende un led verde, sulla punta dell'erogatore, per indicare che le batterie sono cariche, altrimenti si accende il led rosso. L'ho provato capovolto e non ho notato perdite di sapone, poiché il tappo è a pressione; non l'ho tenuto capovolto molto tempo, ma nell'immediato non ho verificato perdite. Unica piccola pecca (del resto non risolvibile se non con un interruttore) è che per spostarlo o per rifornirlo di sapone, lo si deve impugnare in modo tale da non passare la mano sotto il sensore altrimenti... farà il suo lavoro e depositerà il sapone sulla mano :-) Per adesso devo dire che il prodotto è ottimo e mi riservo eventualmente di correggere se in futuro le cose cambiassero. **EDIT** RETTIFICO quanto scritto in precedenza: il dispenser si può spegnere tenendo premuti entrambi i tasti "+" e "-" fino a che non si accende il led rosso; da quel momento è disattivato. Per riaccenderlo basta ripetere l'operazione, cioè tenere premuto i due tasti. Per la sensibilità invece devo dire che eroga il sapone solo ponendo la mano a 4/5 centimetri dal beccuccio, per cui, impugnandolo alla base, non si ha alcuna erogazione. Spero che sia duraturo e non si guasti troppo presto perché, per adesso, mi pare semplicemente perfetto. ** Aggiornamento 16/02/2017 ** Ho letto adesso una domanda sulla densità del sapone da utilizzare, per cui racconto la mia esperienza. Difficile stabilire il limite di densità utilizzabile e difficile spiegarlo in questa sede. Diciamo che se il sapone è troppo denso non viene erogato o in quantità minima. Infatti mi è capitato di acquistare un sapone cremoso da dover premere sul flacone ed il dosatore non ce la faceva. Dopo aver svuotato il serbatoio ed aver insistito un po' con le wergazioni (quasi goccia a goccia) sono riuscito a ripristinare la funzionalità. Per il sapone incriminato non l'ho buttato, ma l'ho semplicemente diluito leggermente nella sua confezione aggiungendo un po' d'acqua e portandolo ad una densità buona per il dosatore

Tvålpump funkar inte ...Det skickades tillbaka till Tyskland...blev tvingad att betala kostnaden. Det kostade mig ca 200 kr
