HomeSoap

It has been through four cycles so far and I believe that it is working. The way that I know is because of the after-cleaning chemical smell which both my fiancé and I find to be extremely tolerable. Also, it appears that anything that has sticker-like decals on it will have the stickiness come from the bottom of the sticker to the top. If you care about decals, don’t put items that have them in the Homesoap and use disinfecting wipes or isopropyl alcohol instead to wipe away the germs while still not touching the decals. You should also know before you buy that any white plastics you put in it may discolor with prolonged UVC light exposure, anything you put into it has to be dry and some keyboards and laptops will not fit. If you have a keyboard that won’t fit and you are okay with taking the keys off of it, I would recommend doing so but make sure to note where each key goes beforehand or take a picture of the keyboard for reference when you’re done cleaning the keys and are ready to put the the keys back on. To get everything optimally clean, you want to lay it in the machine diagonally if possible. I taped two small remotes together to clean them as they would otherwise lay flat. After you plug it in and remove the “remove before using sticker”, the Homesoap is already in automatic mode so if you want 10 minute cleaning only, you are all set to go. Just open the door, shove your nasty stuff in their, and close the door. I have read other reviews as well and need to discuss some things. Corona Virus is not associated with Corona the beer. It is not recommended that you put food or drink (packaged or not) into the Homesoap. Also, the reason why there is not a walk-in version of the Homesoap is because UVC light not only sanitizes surfaces but it can also destroy DNA and RNA (what humans are made of) so you don’t want to subject any part of your skin to UVC rays. Lastly, the chemical smell after sanitizing is normal but I seriously wonder what these people who can’t stand the smell we’re putting in theirs.

I somehow managed to get my hands on the Homesoap before it was completely sold out and back ordered on its website. Couldn’t be happier with this purchase. It is nice to have a UV sanitizer at the best of times, but during a pandemic doubly so. Any non-perishable groceries that can fit inside I put through it in cycles. If I have to go out for whatever reason, I disinfect my keys, phone, and anything else I may have used while out. All mail (not packages as most don’t fit) is disinfected in it as well. Pros: - SUPER Easy setup. Literally just plug in. - The light on the device lets you know when the items have gone through the 10 minute disinfecting cycle. - super light weight. Was immensely surprised at how light it was when I got it. - surrounds your items with UV light to disinfect all the nooks and crannies. - very roomy, I can fit a surprising amount of stuff in the device at one time. - Immediately turns off the UV light if the door is opened mid-cycle. Super important safety feature! Cons: - too easy to switch back and forth between automatic mode and manual - ozone smell when you open the door after cleaning cycle (sort of smells like melting plastic). Not much they can do about it, but it is still there. Just make sure to get your items out quick and close the door immediately. Don’t just leave it open, you really don’t want to be breathing in concentrated ozone (it slowly dissipates on its own so don’t worry, just don’t leave the door open). If you can get a hold of one of these, even if after the pandemic, it is well worth the money! There are so many things that should be disinfected that we use everyday but just don’t (like credit cards). This makes it super easy to kill bacteria and viruses on their surfaces!

I wanna say it seems good for now. I like the bigger size I feel I would like it if it was even bigger though 😂. Don’t shove to much in there as you may break a bulb or the ones on the side that I believe are the side mirrors so I guess it can provide 360 degree sanitization. I broke one of the side bulbs but I guess that’s still fine though and the machine can still function properly its not shattered or anything it just cracked it in half but it’s still in there so I believe it still provides the 360 sanitization I wanna say and hope 😂. Maybe as long as it’s in there and it’s broke in the way mine is then maybe it’s ok then. I wanna say I did contact customer service and I wanna say that that would be ok still to provide 360 sanitization but don’t quote me on that I don’t wanna lie or accidentally lie or so just saying. I did attach a photo for you to check it out though to see what I mean. I also did contact customer service and they do offer a 1 year warranty so I could have it sent in to have it fixed I may because I believe it’s free and they pay for shipping and all I wanna say but yeah. No need to worry about breaking at least the side bulbs though easily I wanna say I really tried to shove something in there and so thankfully that’s all that broke and not one of the bulbs that actually disinfects the stuff or something else. That was just a dumb thing by me so I wanna say don’t worry about that if you are responsible and all that. The side bulbs seem strong enough so just don’t be crazy and try and shove a pillow or something in there where it may be compressed in there and you may here a bulb break or so. Anyways I could maybe say more and ramble on and on or so so sorry for that 😂. I think it’s a good machine though and has treated me well and I wanna say I recommend it just maybe try and find it at a cheaper price. So hopefully this review helped you in a positive way. Regardless wish you all the best and have a great blessed day and life! GOD bless

I feel like the size of this thing has been under-represented so I wanted to show off what it looks like for you. Inside are multiple phones, headphones, charge cables, TV remote, carefully-positioned craft scissors, and then some and then some and then some. I was worried it wouldn't be big enough, but it's huge. My main thing I was worried about is "will it be big enough to put in 1-liter water bottles from the gas station when I'm dodgy about their quality?" and the answer is "Of course!" I suffer extreme allergies, always have all my life, they make my skin burn and rash and can cause me to spend entire days feeling and thinking nothing other than "Please, let this lingering pain stop." I had suspected some component of it was bacterial, but I didn't realize HOW MUCH of it was. In fact, I think that we humans put up with far too much grime and gunk in our stuff! Suddenly my allergic reactions went down a massive amount. If you suffer from debilitating allergies, then you know how some objects around the house can be "off-limits". A remote you can't pick up without breaking out in hives, no matter how much you clean it. A beloved mug that starts making your stomach do backflips out of nowhere. I'm not saying this device'll cure you, but I wouldn't be surprised if some of your trigger objects no longer bother you. For us, it's like a miracle! Definitely worth the money. Not just that, but as an avid video gamer, I care a lot about my controllers, yet sometimes no matter what I do they start sticking and feeling grimy. Buttons press in and take a fraction of a second longer than they used to before they pop back out. That doesn't sound like a big deal, but in competitive gaming, pro gaming, e-sports, etc, it's the difference between looking like an artist or looking like someone who started playing last week. Turns out that as far as I can tell, a LOT of the trouble was from stuff living inside of the buttons and sticks. Once all of it is dead, it can't make things sticky and wet anymore, and the controls loosen back up to their prior state. In fewer words - you can get that crisp, newly store-bought feeling back. I wasn't sure if I'd notice this machine doing anything at all. I assumed that even if it was the best thing since sliced bread, it would take weeks of slowly getting used to it before I got a sensation of how much help it was doing. Instead: I noticed right away! The difference between a cleaned and uncleaned item is SO great, SO huge, SO life-changing, that it's impossible to miss. Taking one star off for the price, though. I'd have gotten this a long time ago if it wasn't so expensive, it's priced way beyond "casual experimental purchase" amounts. It looks like one of those "mail-order miracle items" that nobody actually needs. But if I could, I'd put one in every house. I think that the company is making a bad move by only targeting the few million people with this kind of cash. Make it 1/2 as expensive and you could sell 10 times more, the math checks out. Also I think that pricing it based on size, like the way Apple charges thousands of dollars more for twice the RAM on their computers (even though it doesn't actually cost that much to make), is predatory and we don't need more companies doing it. I hope that the makers of this will become less insecure in the future and price more aggressively. All in all, this product was a win for me. I just hope that more people have the chance to use it!

Feels like a quality product! Elated that our high-school kid’s laptop fits inside! It’s given us the creepies that we could not fit it into our old one - phone-sized unit (different brand). Some reviews mention an odor when opened. My wife noticed it right by the door - I didn’t. It’s not a big deal. We are just getting to use this - but the first impression is excellent.

I tested this with a Quantadose UVC Reader and I'm really disappointed to say that it failed. The PhoneSoap passed, but the HomeSoap did not. The Quantadose card has two parts, the first part is to confirm there is UVC light, and it did pass that part (I had my phone in the machine across from the card video taping). The 2nd part, however, is to show that is produces enough Ultraviolet light to disinfect (about 300W/cm2) and this DID NOT PASS. I put the card ALL OVER THE MACHINE! The front, back, sides, I even taped it on the top and the only time it got a high enough reading to disinfect is when I literally had the front of the card sitting on the bulb. I'm wanting to disinfect larger items, that's why I bought he HomeSoap (I already own the PhoneSoap and love it) so there is no way that my items will always be able to sit directly on one of the two lights, it's literally unfeasable, so this machine is useless for me. I'm glad that the PhoneSoap passed, as I've been using that for several years now. I returned the HomeSoap and purchased another sanitizer that is actually made for baby bottles, and it passed both tests. It's really a shame that the HomeSoap didn't. For such a reputable company it saddens me they would sell a subpar product. (I did confirm that the test card was working by walking into the sun as well and it definitely works, like I said it worked in the PhoneSoap as it passed, just not the HomeSoap.) Oh well, live and learn.

Nice design that looks and feels like the quality product you'd expect from PhoneSoap. That's great because it's out on the counter all the time. It's also super easy to use. I have it by my front door and I just throw in my phone, sunglasses and keys when I get home. With the bottle of hand sanitizer I have next to it, I feel some sort of control over what I may be carrying into the house. It lets me feel like I'm doing something to maintain control of my environment. Which is great considering all that is going on with Covid-19. The device doesn't clean the smudges on your phone or whatever you put in it, but you will notice that whatever it killed does make your stuff easier to clean. Also for stuff that seems to have more gunk on it there is more of an Ozone smell that isn't great, but isn't terrible. It's a by-product of the germicidal UV-C process and really the only thing that let's you know that it's working. It also has a nice feature that has it run another cycle when you take your items out to clean the device itself so it's ready for the next time you use it. If you don't want to wait, you can also stop it and put more stuff in. The plastic covers on the little sticky feet were really hard to remove but are really sticky so it will stay in place. However, considering how sticky they are it's amazing don't leave any residue. Also, you can charge your phone while it's in the device, so if you leave it in there for a while you don't have to worry about a low battery. :) All in all, I'm very happy with the purchase.

This thing is great! The area where you put your devices is quite large. It can hold multiple phones, eyeglasses, etc.. at a time. The sanitization cycle is only 10 minutes. I'm not sure if that is long or short compared to other devices, but it seems to be done by the time we get our coats away and everything out of the car, etc.. I never feel like I'm waiting for it tomorrow finish. It is a decent size so check the outer dimensions and make sure you have a place to put it. But, I have already, and will continue to recommend this. I couldn't be more pleased with this.

Works perfectly, exactly as described. Seems to do the job. Good height space & width. I've had a red light a couple of times for unknown reasons, but once I've restarted it, seems to usually fix the error. Good unit. Good quality
