Love the fact that when I come from outside I don’t need to touch the pump to retrieve soap. It works great and it gives you different features as to how much soap you desire. The charge is excellent and I don’t need to worry about batteries. Can’t wait to buy another one.
We just upgraded from the battery operated to this rechargeable pump. Cosmetically, it looks great, closely matching the chrome faucet. Just wish it was able to display how much soap remains in the unit. Works smoothly!
This is my second sensor pump soap dispenser. I bought my first one 3 years ago and loved it so much I decided to purchase a second one for my bathroom. It's sleek design is clean & simple looking, the charge lasts a very long time, and the amount of soap is variable based on hand placement. A quality product that I would not hesitate to recommend.
We had the previous rechargeable soap dispenser bottle. Bought the "new" version and it is worse in every way.
1) Previous model had a micro USB port. New model has a proprietary connection. If you lose the cord, you are SOL. 2) The refill is a pain. It has a narrow tunnel so it starts bubbling and overflows easily. Horrible design. 3) No clear window to show how much soap is left. 4) No adjuster button for soap dispensing. It automatically senses how far your hands are away to dispense the right amount of soap. Not exactly easy for young kids to understand the concept. 5) Multiple times, it has continuously dispense soap even after the hand is no longer in the sensor area, thus wasting a lot of soap.
Overall, I hate the new design. I wish I can buy the old rechargeable version instead. Not an upgrade by any means.

Our new charging puck and port is a design improvement as it ensures that the pump is sealed and IP67 waterproof. Also, when soap is poured directly into the funnel opening, it will not slow down the filling process. To prevent any false triggers, we also recommend polishing the sensor window with a soft cloth and rubbing alcohol.
Purchased two of these dispensers. I’ve returned one because it leaked every time I used it.
