Looks like, works well. Like that it is rechargeable. The old model took 4 AA batteries that had to be replaced often, and turning it upside down while filled with soap was a pain.
This model looks much nicer on the countertop and works very well. What I don't like:
* Proprietary charging cable that is not integrated with the device. So now I have to keep track of this cable and make sure to never lose it. * The controls to adjust how much soap is dispensed are underneath the sensor that dispenses soap, so every time I try to adjust, I get soap I don't want. Buttons on the top or back of the device would have been better.
We already had the touchless faucet so adding your touchless soap dispenser in the same gold color was a must have and we love it! Super clean look and a completely touchless sink now! Thanks!
We purchased 3 of these newest versions, a pair in black and one in brass, for family use in our NYC apt. They are quiet, easy to use and easy to maintain. They work well and perform flawlessly. However, children or guests unfamiliar with the intuitive flow control interface on the front of the device often put their dirty hands randomly in between the red arrows (UP for smaller soap flow and DOWN for more soap flow) under the sensor controller so the flow of soap dispensed is too great, making mess and wasting precious soap extravagantly! It requires a bit of practice to aim hands a bit higher up to get just a small soap boule of the concentrated Simplehuman soap—not much is required to wash hands well. In the next Simplehuman device iteration, we humbly suggest adding digital memory (or just a simple preset volume controller) to allow users to “preset” a reasonable size volume of soap dispensed for all users, so children, guests or any users in a big hurry (my teenager) wouldn’t make such a mess! Then, if users want more soap, they could remove hands and quickly present them again for additional fixed volumes of soap. Please consider adding simple calibration of soap flow to fix or control soap volume?
My husband and two sons received this dispenser for Christmas and are really stoked! No more touching usual soap dispenser with major dose of germs or worse (think raw chicken - ick). Worth every single penny, IMHO!
Compared to the old style 9's I like the new and improved sensor pump 9. A little shorter in height, And the fill hole is much bigger, which makes it easier to refill.. And the charge compare to the old sensor pumps 9 seems to last longer too.
