Review for Hands-Free Soap Dispenser

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This is a great item for keeping bathroom hand germs to a minimum. The design is not very attractive, however, and the mid-range dispenser petered out so you can ONLY get a load of soap each time. There is no way to gauge how much soap is left, so it may be on empty for your guests. But I like the automatic dispensing of soap--just seems more hygenic

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It's very convenient for people who are always busy.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Unfortunately, I've purchased 2 of these and they've bothg one bad on me after a month. They begin dispensing very little, if any product. They eat through batteries. And the last one I couldn't get to work at all.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I wouldn't recommend this item at all.
First one I received the pump didn't work.
Very messy for sure, would not recommend
At all

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

it's so sanitary! the only thing is it doesn't always dispense

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

We first tried a thick soap with lotion added; we had to switch to a more clear liquid soap. The bottom is rusting.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

had the former model which worked great until it broke. This one does not mix the soap well and is noisy.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Purchased this automatic soap dispenser for a gift and it didn't work at all.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I had bought this thinking it would work great for my 2 yo son, but the soap comes out too slow to do that. Therefore we have put it in the kitchen where I have found it works well. it is still slow, but I no longer have to touch the top of the dispensor and get it all filled with gunk. I appreciate that a lot.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

The dispenser is very fragile. If while you are refilling it you turn the dispenser with the motor upside down to keep soap from coating everything, it will kill the sensor. This is stated in the manual but who remembers the manual 7 months after purchase. They should have built this better. With kids, they could easily make it fall into the sink and turn a dispenser into a nice steel soap container.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I was excited about the concept of this product. When I first opened it, it almost looked used. I cleaned it up and proceeded to use. The soap dispension is unpredictable. Low won't even work. I opened it today to try to jick with it and the top of the soap canister is all rusted around the neck. Totally disappointing.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I was so excited to find this when I was traveling (we don't have a Brookstone store here) that I bought two of these right away. One worked for a few weeks, the other for 3 days. I thought I had done something wrong at first but when the second one quit, I was angry. I am not close to a store but will be taking them back the next time I am in their area.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Great when preparing food, especially fish or chicken. A "good thing" during the cold & flu season. If there were a smaller setting for output, it would be more children friendly. At a recent birthday party, this was the talk of the bathroom.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It's handy right at the kitchen sink because you don't have push a plunger on the regular soap bottles and your hand slips off and the container goes flying with no soap in your hand!!! All you have to do is pass your hand under the nozzle and "presto" the right amount is discharged without any messes. It's GREAT.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This is perfect for the kitchen to use while cooking.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I had a similar soap dispenser (Much more Costly)!!! It broke after about 3 months use. The soap wouldn't stop coming out until it ran out completely. I purchased this unit and have been very pleased with it. I have since purchased another one for my mother, and she loves it as well!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I have the Hands-Free Soap Dispenser on my kitchen sink, and love it! I am a cook, and when I get the food that I am preparing on my hands, it's great to wash it off without touching a soap dispenser. I would definately purchase it again!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

On the kitchen counter next to the sink is so convenient to use and it eliminates the soap dish, which usually ends up a mess after several uses.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It is nice looking and seemed like a good value except that it doesn't work and needs to be returned. Bought two and was going to use one as a gift, but......

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Easy use and set up. Works best on high setting, at least for the thickness of soap used.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Poor Quality, Didn't last long. Don't buy this.I received this product as a gift for Christmas. What a great idea I thought, this will cut down on cross contamination in the kitchen! I put it straight to work. Unfortunately, the product was so poor at recognizing that my hand was under the spout, I had to press right up against the sensor for it to work. So much for not touching anything. Less than two months later the product stopped working completely. [...] So now all I've got is a stylish soap container, that won't dispense anything.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I LOVE ALL MY PRODUCTS THAT I HAVE EVER BOUGHT FROM BROOKSTONE. THEY HAVE GREAT QUALITY PRODUCTS.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This is a great item to use at the kitchen sink. I like to cook, and working with food items, such as raw hamburger or chicken, I don't like to touch anything while my hands can be potentially contaminated. I love the hands-free soap dispenser for this purpose.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

The soap dispenser is great in the kitchen when hands are sticky or gooey. Also good for children who can't always use a regular pump.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Have to hold palm of hand over sensor eye to make it despense soap.. Causes soap to come out over your hand or on the back side of it.. Only will put enough soap out in the 'HIGH' mode.. Only puts out a drop in the 'LOW' setting...

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

We use this product at home and my kids just love it. It was so easy to use. Although the auto pumping gets weaker over time, I would still buy another one of these for the other room in my house.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

The sensor is very good. Sometimes the soap continues to drip out after I've removed my hand, but this happens with regular dispensers too. It makes a low noise as it dispenses so I know when my 6 year old has really used soap to wash his hands.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

You do not need to press the pump and get the container all greasy. Just wave your hand underneath and everything comes out clean.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

easy bathroom use

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It's fairly easy to fill, and also holds a LOT.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It is a little bit slow- especially with kids who do not want to wait for the soap.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

this is such a timely product, and so great to have for children.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Great product in the bathroom.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This was a gift to my gadget loving Uncle & Aunt. They both loved it.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Functions well, but sometimes you have to place your hands under it multiple times to get the soap to dispense.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Just open the box, fill the dispenser with your favorite soap and you're good to go.

Kids love to wash their hands because the dispenser is simple, fun and automatic.

Parents love the dispenser because their kids are washing their hands more often and they don't make a mess while doing so.

And the added bonus? The cool stainless steel design on your counter.

I liked it so much I bought one for my entire Christmas list.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I use it in the bathroom for right next to the sink and it works well. do wish it came out of the dispenser a little bit faster

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I have always liked the automatic soap dispensers when I travel through different airports so I felt that this was a very unique and useful item for my mother as it isn't cumbersome like bar soaps and pumps. My mother only has the use of one hand. She says the only thing is that the soap has to be filled up to the top to work properly. She exclaims it is GREAT!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I sent three of these as Christmas gifts and all three say it is great. It is dispensing both lotion and soap at various places. I intend to buy one or two for myself.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This is such an awesome product. My company bought them for the restrooms at work and I loved them and got a few for myself and as gifts!!!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Product works well except first time you go for soap, you need to activate 3-4 times before anything comes out

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I like softsoap dispensers, but the problem with them is you have to touch the dispenser with your dirty hands to get the soap. After a time, the dispenser gets dirty and makes the sink look dirty by association. With this hands-free dispenser you don't have to touch the dispenser with your dirty hands, so it stays clean. It helps to keep your sink area looking clean. Very nice!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It works great in the kitchen when your hands are dirty!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Things that are great and how to use.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

it comes i handy when your cooking

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This works exactly as stated. Easy to fill and to keep clean.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I like it when it works because I like "automatic" things. But, this dispenser only works about half of the time. There is a low and a high setting for the amount of soap to come out, but only the high setting puts out enough soap to actually use, when the soap actually does come out.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

use in kitchen to avoid handling soap dispensers

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Product needs to dispense more soap at one time...user must go back at least two or three times to get adequate amount

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This is great for people who are washing their hands alot due to whatever activity. When you come back indoors from smoking or doing yardwork or getting ready to prepare a meal. It's too convenient not to have one. Well worth the price!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bought 6 of these total right before the holidays. Out of the 6 only one is still working ....less than a month...and 2 of them were bad right out of the box, 1 went bad after 3 uses and the 4 th one only works on low and the 5th stopped after a week. Don't waste your time....great idea....nice looking....many defects

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

The kids love it and I don't have a soapy mess everywhere.

Works like it should

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Perfect for the kitchen and bath!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Great dispenser.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Sometimes lets soap out for no reason. Does drip. Has good design. Fits nicely on counter.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It's a great product to have in the kitchen. Get your hands clean with out contaminating anything else.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I put this on my kitchen counter. It's great to be able to put my sponge up to it and not have to use another hand to pump. Love it!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

So nice when hands are covered in motor oil. Or after cutting up meats. It stays germ free.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I have tried many motion hand soap dispensers and will probably return this item, as all other before it. It's appearance is impeccable but you must hold your hand in the correct position, for some time, before soap will be dispensed. Some times it takes a few tries for it to work at all. It needs some work before it will work seamlessly.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Eliminates the "wet" bar of soap and messy
soap dishes

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

We keep this at the kitchen sink with anti-bac soap. Since we have animals, we are always washing up - it's very efficient and convenient.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This was such a great purchase! My kids love it, my husband loves it, even my mother-in-law! You can tell it isn't just cheaply made. I LOVE IT! I've bought another for my bathroom, my work, and all my friends want one when they see it!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I like this product, but must admit that once you get the soap out, it tends to leak onto the counter,so I have to put a little dixie cup under it to catch the drips.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

very handy. have it at the kitchen sink and it is very convenient when cooking.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I use this in the kitchen - perfect.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This product is so awesome, especially in the kitchen and bath. It looks great and helps to prevent germs from soap bottles. The only minor bug is that on occasion, you might have to run your hand under the unit twice, but it is no big deal. Love this dispenser. Even bought one for both daughters !!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It takes awhile to get accustomed to this soap dispenser. It has two settings; low and high for dispensing soap. I found low to be too low. However, you can overcome this by removing your hand from the sensor window and returning it for another dispense of soap. On the high setting a little more soap is dispensed than needed. You can solve this buy pulling your hand away in a downward motion which "locks out" or stops the amount of soap dispensed. It would be great if there was a variable control knob/slide switch for dispensing soap. Overall it still works well. If you plan to use this in a guest bathroom, then I would place the setting on high. Guests will never use it long enough to figure out the peculiarities of this appliance. However, it is still great as it avoids cross contamination while cooking. The density of the soap/lotion you are using probably has something to do with the dispense rate as well.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This is a great product. I use it in the kitchen with my dishwashing soap. It is especially useful when you are preparing foods (especially chicken) and don't have to touch items to clean your hands. The only draw-back that I have found is that batteries do not have a long life in this product.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Nice look

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

i use it in my laundry room off of the garage. that way i don't have to touch anything with my greasy hands when i come inside.
very handy too.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Had one from another store but it was plastic and does not work as well as Brookstone's. Like the construction - heavy not light-weight and will last longer.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

My aunt owns a similar product but from a different manufacturer so this is why I bought this. I also have 5 kids who waste a lot of soap. I was a bit disappointed in this product. The design is so-so in appearance but that is not something too overly important to me. The most disappointing thing about this product is that the dispensing of the soap is finicky. When you put your hand under the spout and in front of the sensor, soap does not always come out on the first try. So I end up waving my hand back and forth and sometimes the soap dispenses when my hand happens to be away from the unit. Usually this happens on the "low" setting. When the unit is on the "high" setting, soap comes out automatically most of the time but the amount of soap is quite large and I think, a bit wastefully. I'm planning on finding out the name of the one my aunt owns.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bought several for Christmas gifts since they are appropriate for male/female, families, etc. and something most people don't already have. I had good reaction from all, although one person says hers does not work on "Low" and another person did not think it worked correctly.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This is very handy after dealing with raw meat while cooking. It works reasonably well. However, it can take several times of moving your hand in the area to activate the dispeneser before soap is actually dispensed. Then if you don't want a second shot of soap you need to move your hand out of sensor range while trying to get all of what was dispensed the in the first shot. Not perfect but serves a purpose!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I COOK ALOT OF CHICKEN, GREAT NOT HAVING TO TOUCH EVERYTHING TO CLEAN MY HANDS.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Works great in the kitchen when working with raw meats etc. Works so well we gave one as a Christmas present.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Great in the kitchen or bath!!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Every other dispenser has only lasted a few weeks before the pumps did not work. This hands free dispenser was definitely the answer for multiple users within the household. Reasonably priced for a one time purchase. Will be buying additional dispenser for other areas of the home.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This is great when both your hands are in contact with something messy or potentially harmful, such as raw eggs or uncooked meat. Lost a star because there is no way to visualize from the outside the level of soap inside the dispenser.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This is great in the kitchen; completely hands off which is nice when handling things like raw meat! It also cuts down on waste and mess from children.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This is great when you have just cut up chicken and want to clean your hands and don't want to touch anything

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This soap dispenser is extremely easy to use. I initially got it for my kitchen but my 5 year old liked it so much, I put it in the bathroom. This makes getting him to wash his hands with soap MUCH easier as he really enjoys the "magic" way the soap comes out.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

The product is much taller than the reflective picture makes it look. It actually measures 8 inches tall.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

too bad you have to touch the unit sometimes in order to get the soap out. kinda defeats the whole point of it.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Followed the directions to purge the air out of the system. It worked for about 3 squirts of soap and then quit working. We changed batteries and still didn't function properly. Bookstone was fast getting us a prepaid mailer to return it. Waiting for the replacement unit to arrive. Attractive unit, stainless finish. If the replacement works, then I would recommend it, otherwise I would not.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It works very efficiently and keeps dirty hands from touching the soap dispenser. The "low" setting is too low, and the high setting just a touch too much, but it's fine. Medium would be perfect.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Seems to work much better after getting the first 20-30 uses under our belt. Even the low setting dispenses too much soap for everyday use. It is perfect for our 5 year-old and her typical messy hands. No more filthy faucets or light switches!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I purchased this product for my husband who has problems with hand tremors and gripping function. He struggled with bar soap and regular pump soap dispensers so I decided to try this one and see if it would work for him. He loves it and has no trouble using it at all. It is very gratifying to hear the little whir of the dispenser and know that he is able to wash his hands without assistance rather than the sound of the old soap dispenser hitting the sink when he drops it followed by his expression of frustration. Thank you for an innovative and quality product.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It is very easy to use, and works well. The only thing I don't like is that sometimes dishes or something else I am washing in the sink gets too close to the sensor and soap comes out when I don't want it to. Other than that, I love this product.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Works like a charm! The children like washing their hands so they can use it which really makes it worth every dime!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I found this product very helpful in the kitchen. I am constantly washing my hands while preparing food and use this product a lot, especially while making meatballs or other foods that require "your hands in the mix". I also bought one for the bathroom.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

There were no instructions with the product indicating what type of soap to use. Liquid soap is too thick, thus causing the dispensing of soap to be very slow. Not to satisfied with the product for this reason. Size of the product is nice for the sink within the kitchen. Looks good.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I really like the motion sensor to release the soap when hands are a mess. I find it to be a real asset at the kitchen sink.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

we use it in the kitchen before preparing food keeps us sanatized.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

When it does work, the amount of soap dispensed is not enough to wash your hands.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Purchased as a gift.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bought this as a Christmas gift (for 3 separate people) and after hearing how everyone loved it I decided to get one for myself! Love-it!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Item is highly recommended

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I USE THE PRODUCT IN THE BATHROOM TO LESSEN THE SPREAD OF GERMS. ALSO USE TO LIMIT EXCESSIVE USE OF THE PUMP LIQUID SOAP.I REALLY LIKE THE PRODUCT.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This product is great, it eliminates those gunky hand soap bottles.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Great in Kitchen when preparing foods.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

like the product even with dispensing problem

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

After purchasing two for our home, I bought five for family and friend gifts. It is a fun way to do a repetitive chore.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bought this for my Mom as a gift. She loves it! It works well, is easy to set up and looks great. In fact I bought it because the brushed stainless finish was much nicer than the more expensive models I have seen. I can't wait to get one for myself.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bought this for my husband for Christmas and he loves it! He does most of the cooking and finds it wonderful for reducing cross-contamination!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Works well

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This is an awesome product and our house will not be without it. So easy to use - just put your hand underneath and the soap (or hand lotion or whatever) is automatically dispensed. I am convinced that because all the hands with germs are not contsantly touching a handle, that it has cut down tremendously on sharing germs and illness in our family. Very stylish and fits in any decor. I highly recommend it and have bought them for family and friends.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

it is a nice item for kids to use, they like washing there hands. with this item.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I absolutely LOVE this item. Just put your hand under the spout and presto--soap comes out. No more contaminating the soap dispenser with salmonella after handling poultry or other meat. It is very easy to use.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bought the same model this December and had to return it twice. Definitely quality issues - low speed does dispense evenly or consistantly. I am returning it again and won't purchase another one until Brookstone fixes the product.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This product allows you to wash your hands without contaminating the soap dispenser.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bought this soap dispenser for myself. It is used in my kitchen. I absolutely love the fact that when my hands need washing I am not getting anything dirty because it has this neat sensor that dispenses soap for me.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This product is very convenient.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I have this item in my kitchen and its perfect for keeping your hands clean when dealing with raw meat. I feel cleaner because I'm not spreading germs around!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Thought this was the greatest thing since sliced bread. I love using it and when it works, it is awesome. However, I am so disappointed that after I've only had this for a month in our bathroom on the first floor, near the kitchen, it suddenlty stopped working. I tried two new sets of batteries, kept the device that one uses in the beginning to remove air and used it again. At one point, it dispenses just a little. Something must still be alive in it. However, I cannot get it to work steadily. Have waved my hand in front of it for long periods of time. It is not working. Should I take it back, send it back, or just take the loss? I was close to buying one for the kitchen and then possibly for all the other bathrooms, too. I like the look and ease of use, if it only worked!!!!!!!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I purchased one for my wife to use for her lotion and she liked it so well we purchased one for her work site and 2 more to give as gifts.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

The one thing I don't like at this soap dispenser is that on low, it takes a while to dispense the soap and then you wonder if it is enough to clean your hands. I wish there was an intermediate level not just high or low - high which is too much and low is too little.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

i had bought a similar product elsewhere but this one is far superior to the other.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

My husband is enamored with this soap dispenser...much more than I. It is slow to react and difficult to keep the drip nozzle clean but it looks great in stainless steel on my stainless steel sink!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This product is especially great in the kitchen due to the fact it is hands free, so very sanitary!
No clean up from messy hands or bacteria transfer from raw foods!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I use this product to hold dish-washing soap. It's convenient to only have to place the sponge underneath the dispenser to get soap without having to use your other hand, but it dispenses a tad bit too much at the lowest setting for me.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I like this product. It's a little larger that I thought, but still looks nice on a kitchen counter. I use it for dish soap. I like that you don't have to touch anything to get soap when your hands are filthy. It dispenses well, but I have noticed that if you use it often, it will leave 1 drip each time you use it. Also, when you haven't used it for a while, the soap goes back down and you have to give it a second or third wave of your hand to get the soap. Other than that, it is great. Looks good too.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Easy to use,however after sitting it doesn't always work on the first try.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

The automatic soap dispenser is great for kitchen use. I never have to have to clean off the top of the soap dispenser after I wash my messy hands. The one draw back is that this dispenser will occasionaly dispense soap when it is not in use. This leaves a soapy mess on my kitchen sink.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I selected this product for use in my kitchen. I appreciate the hands free application, as I am able to maintain a higher level of cleanliness in my food preparation. The soap dispenser is well designed and a real asset in my home.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

looks good and works as designed. i bought another model from another co. and it stopped working after 1 month this one is still going strong

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I'm happy with this purchase. I do a lot of cooking at home with rubs and raw meat so this is perfect for me. 1 drawback is that it sometimes takes 2-3 tries for the soap to come out as it has to "prime" itself.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I purchased additional units for other sinks.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Begin somewhat germ-a-phobic, I LOVE this product. It definitely gives me positive "chi", and it's fun to use. I bought one for hand-soap in the kitchen and soon after ordered another to fill with lotion.

I only wish they made smaller ones with rubber feet or something like that to fit and stay on pedestal sinks that don't have much counter space.

I just may purchase more, as gifts.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Got this for my husband and it has turned out to be a great thing for our daughter too.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bought the automatic dispenser for my Mom for Christmas after I saw her automatic garbage can open as you approach it. I wanted to try the gift out, so I bought one for myself. I love to walk up to it and have soap come out!

It has a low and high setting for the amount of soap dispensed. I think it could use a medium (too much or not enough soap). I saw a sleeker, more slender design for the same price at another retailer and am tempted to get mom that one. It's not a bad product, I have just seen better.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Makes it fun for kids to wash hands. I was a little surprised that it is mostly plastic with stainless covering, but it has been holding up well.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

JUST GREAT EVERY NICE LOOKING AND EFFICENT

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Pretty good product for the price. The only thing that I don't like is that you have to sometimes stick your hand under there for awhile before soap comes out.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Easy to use and clean. No soapy mess.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

My 6year old son loves this product and it used to be difficult to make him wash his hand with a soap. Now just to use this he washes even before we say it. We all love this. There is no spill and no soap mesh. Great Product.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bought this after seeing it at my folks house. I'm using the one I have for hand soap at the kitchen sink but plan to buy another for dish soap. They are very stylish and stay much cleaner than usual soap dispensers.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Grabs the attention of guests.
So easy and accessible, especially when handing greasy items in the kitchen.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

We use this at our kitchen sink and I am putting it on my "how-did-I-ever-live-without-it" list right next to TiVo. When working with raw meat, it is a lifesaver. No contamination of the soap dispenser! Takes a couple of days to get the hang of it, but now it is my little friend. I also have an automatically-opening garbage can that goes right next to it. A little infared family... On the refill instructions, I wish they were more clear. Every time I go to refill this thing I have to remember how to do it -- there are pieces that screw off so that you can fill it the right way, but the directions don't say it correctly. I've purchased this as gifts for at least five people over the last year and they all LOVE it too!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I have had a unit for 6 months and am very pleased. I also have had 2 other brands and this one beats 'em. The soap capacity is large making refills infrequent. The batteries last longer than other brands as well. Rechargable batteries work well with this unit. A brand that I DO NOT recommend is SimpleHuman. My wife just asked me to order 2 more units.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It works really well. Is strong and put together well. The one down side is that sometimes air can get in the pump. If that happens you just keep putting your hand underneath it until the soap comes out. I looked all over for this product and this one is by far the best.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

The early design dispensed too much soap. I returned my first unit and the second one works consistently and dispenses just the right amount of soap. Two flaws: can't determine the remaining amount of soap - just use mine until the soap runs out and fairly messy to refill. There are units at the same price with a much better design and more adjustability.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Great for guest bathroom. Don't have to worry friends are exchanging germs. Will probably buy another one for sunscreen. No mess putting lid back on.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This product is way more reliable than the Sharper Image version. We were glad to see an alternative to that version. The SI versions seem to last only about two to three months before they fail (usually the sensor mechanism).This version has been in service for over five months and is still working well. The three things that I would like to see improved would be: An even lower low setting, although this product is puported to be stainless the bottom shows small signs of oxidation. I would be buying many more if they came in smaller sizes and other colors that would be more suitable for bathrooms

I bought this for a friend of mine and she just loves it. This product should have been designed years and years ago. I would buy it again and again.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I use this in the kitchen, and when you are cleaning poultry or fish it is the best thing since sliced bread. You can wash your hands without getting the soap dispenser all slimy

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I purchased two.One for me and one for my daughter. It would make an exellent wedding gift.I need to buy more.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This dispenser actually dispenses a useable amount of soap (even the thick kind) each and every time. Originally I thought it was dispensing too much even on the lower setting but discovered that I could control it by just removing my hand from the sensor. CAUTION! remove your hand in a downward motion when controlling the amount of soap to be dispensed or it will drip on the counter. The only con to this product is location. Find a place to put it around a sink that will not normally accidentally activate it.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

The soap dispenser comes in a shiny steel finish, one that other stores do not carry. This clean design is practical and functional. It helps keep my counters clutter free and also helps promote cleanliness with the children. I would recommend this product to others.

As for the discoloration I mentioned on the cons, it occurs where the two pieces join together. I think its perhaps a little soap build up. This minor problem does not affect my recommendation as I routinely wipe it down while cleaning so it's no big deal or hassle.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I always wash my hands after putting meat in pan. I didn't want to touch the faucet lever and would always use my wrist to turn the water on. This is a great product. I had mine about two weeks when I bought one for my son's family.It really cuts down the risk of spreading germs to other things.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

THIS PRODUCT IS WONDERFUL, YOU CAN PUT A INEXPENSIVE GOOD SMELLING SOAP IN IT AND HAVE A REAL SHOW PIECE SITTING ON YOUR COUNTER. SOAP DISPENSER DISPENSES JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF SOAP SAVING YOU AS A CONSUMER MONEY. I PLAN ON BUYING MORE.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I purchased this product for my kitchen and I found it pretty handy. The only con I found on this product is it could be a little quieter and a little easier to re-fill.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

We use it in the bathroom and find that is less messy to use than a pump dispenser. It also has a large capacity. It is made of easy to clean stainless steel and keeps its good looks.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This product is handy to use in the kitchen and bathroom. It is hands-free so it is convenient to use with DIRTY hands.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Looks and works good. Need to find the right kind of soap to work properly.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This is a great product for disabled people who are unable to use bar soap or regular pump dispensers.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

After receiving a hands-free soap dispensor myself for Christmas,I showed mine to a friend who does mechical work. He thought the dispenser was great,so I order one for him. It is now very easy for him to clean up without his dirty hands touching anything. He loves it.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Great concept. Delivers soap inconsistently. Sounds like it is struggling to deliver anything & sometimes it dispenses nothing.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

The volume to dispense is easily set and using the product is intuitive.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I love it because it's hands free, stays clean and easy to use.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It is the perfect compliment to my stainless steel kitchen. I just ran out of dish liquid and forgot how I was able to fill the reservoir initially. I have turned every possible removable piece. I just may have to order another :(.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It's great if your hands are dirty and you do not want to touch anything. I set the soap dispense rate at minimum. If you want less soap into your hand, you will have to move you hand downward from the motion sensor to get even less soap. I found the soap flow at the minimum setting is most generous for what I need. The viscosity of the soap may affect dispense performance. As for a bargain, I thought it was a bit pricey-a coupon or free shipping would have helped. I bought it through Brookstone's internet store which works for me! It was given as a gift because it matched the kitchen and I was behind being close to Christmas. The gift was well received by all!!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bought one for my sister and father for Christmas. It looks great and works perfectly. I just placed another order for 3 more. I love these things.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Tried to find a product that would make life easier for my parents -- one of whom has rheumatoid arthritis and very limited use of hands and the other with one arm. This product worked so well for both of them that I bought two more and my folks couldn't be happier.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Love this! I use it in the kitchen. I like to hold the sponge in front of sensor and then I have the right amount of soap to scrub pans and dishes. Just bought another one as a birthday gift for someone who is hard to buy for.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I handle a lot of meat when I cook and this is so handy to wash my hands as many times as I need to without worrying about contaiminating any other surfaces.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It is purfect at the kitchen sink when your hands are covered with food and you don't have to push a plunger to get cleaned up

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Virtually no clean up after use.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I love the convenience of not having to touch the soap dispenser! It works great and looks nice.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This was the one product I am so happy was made available. We have one on each room and I am thrilled with the entire package. Love it especially in the kitchen so that I do not have to touch anything after handling raw products.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

We bought ours for the kitchen. When you press on the top of a soap container to squirt soap, you leave what ever was on your hand on the soap container. Later, you get it on your hands when touching the container. This can be a problem, especially with raw chicken. This product helps prevent cross contamination of food.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Great dispenser for soaps or lotions without the messy pumps. Nice for liquid soaps in the kitchen. Prevents unnecessary spread germs to others by having to touch conventional dispensors with dirty hands first. Can be erronenously set off if it is too close to work areas and something passes too close by the sensor. Good product overall and looks great anywhere. Highly recommended.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This soap dispenser is so handy and never makes a mess. It makes you want to wash your hands just to use it!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I use it in the kitchen and sent one to each of my married children for Christmas.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Looks great and works as expected. Leave your hand under the dispenser until it's done and then slightly wipe as you pull your hand back. I agree that more settings for more/less quantity of soap would be helpful. Great in the kitchen to reduce spread of contamination from raw food.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

We put this in our most used bathroom. It is stylish and practical.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

We like the size of the soap reservoir and ease of priming the pump. It looks great in our master bath.
I plan to get another for the guest bathroom and maybe one for my sister.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

My husband loves this dispenser. The only thing I don't like about it is that it is a little too large. But the design is nice and it works flawlessly.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bought this to replace a pump dispenser. It goes great with my stainless steel sink and appliances. The only drawback was getting used to how long to leave your hand under the spout so that soap didn't continue to dispense and get on the counter.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Great design, would like to see it in different finishes.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I was tired of pushing on a liquid soap dispenser to wash my dirty hands when cooking because the soap dispenser became contaminated with the germs on my hands. This hands-free soap dispenser is so much more sanitary and easier to use than the regular dispenser from the store.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Excellent product. Adds a little high tech to my guest bathroom

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This was a gift for my husband, who really dislikes germs. He put it in his bathroom and now I have to get one for me because I find myself in his bathroom just so I can use it! It is a very ingenious way to keep germs from spreading. The dirtiest hands do not have to touch anything before they are clean.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I have a newborn and this product is great for when I have the baby in one hand and need a little soap.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bought this soap dispenser for a family member for Xmas. She wanted it. She seemed very happy when she opened her present.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

For Christmas gifts our family opened up 3 Hands Free Soap Dispensers. Two at the same time from 2 different people. At first I thought this is just a modern thing that I would not use, but I was wrong. I have it on my kitchen sink and when I am dealing with meat products I use this hands free dispenser and I don't get any meat residue on the soap dispenser. This seems very healthy to me. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the fact that it dispenses too much soap even when it is on the lowest setting.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Can use both hands to prepare food without cross contamination with the normal soap dispenser (i.e. Dawn detergent).

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I use the hands-free soap dispenser in the kitchen and is perfect when you need to wash your hands after handling raw meat. The stainless steel design blends in well in the kitchen. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

More attractive looking in bath than I thought it would be. Works quite well. Would purchase another identical item for another sink/bath. May even consider use in kitchen.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I purchased this for my mother who suffered a stroke and recently came to live with us. She has no use of her left arm and it seemed difficult for her to use the push down foam soap dispensers. This product is PERFECT! I had to position it so she wouldn't accidently activate it, but now it works great and my 4-yr. old uses it too!! It's stylish and doesn't make her feel like it's something just for "disabled" people. It's in our guest bathroom, so everyone uses it!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I bake professionaly and I am careful to be sanitary. This dispensor is even better then the wall mounted versions. Hands free means no cross contamination.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Use it everyday but sensor is hit and miss.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

now I don't have to worry about my chhild using the soap dispenser. It's fun and easy for him.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Wonderful for small children (and adults) who have a hard time getting enough or too much soap.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I gave this as a gift this x-mas for a couple of germaphobes and they loved it.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Wonderful for the kitchen sink where hands are soiled and hands need to be washed so many times preparing a meal.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I have a daycare and I will be getting another one for the bathroom. Right now I have it in the kitchen. The kids can wash without spreading germs. Liquid comes out a little to much so I will fill it with a creme soap next.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It is great for the kitchen sink. When your hands are greasy or messy you don't have to touch the soap dispenser.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

This made a great gift for my mom for Christmas. It looks nice and you don't have to full with the mess of pumping the soap or bar soap. My mom has everything and it is hard to come up with different ideas for every event. She hates germs so this only helped in that regard.
I would definitely recommend to buy! I hope to get one soon as well.
The only con is there is a delay when first using. Not enough to not use or make a great value. Great Item!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

Nice thing is our children look forward to washing their hands!!

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

A classic attractive soap dispenser that is easy to use and replces multi plastic containers. My wife loves to use it and enjoys the cleanliness.
Also it was a neat surprise Christmas present.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

I keep the soap dispenser on my bathroom sink at the moment. It needs to be at the sink on the bar in my den but I use the bathroom sink more. I seriously need another one. This thing is awesome! I wish everything was motion activated.

Comments about Hands-Free Soap Dispenser:

It was a very good buy and very attractive. Would definitely recommend purchasing this item
