worst than previous model

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.

I have had simplehuman no touch soap dispensers for years. I love the upgrade of it being rechargeable, easy to fill, and the smaller size at my sink. Thank You
Glad to have purchased it in sake as I have a feeling it will not last the two years which is when the warranty will be up - material seems cheap

What a sleek and beautiful product! Takes some getting used to since it’s sensitive (as it should be) so where to place the pump and how close to put your hands to get the preferred amount of soap will take some trial and error. Gives me peace of mind that we’re not just contaminating our hands every time we use soap (now if I can just get a hands free faucet...). Easy to refill and I love that it’s waterproof. Best of all, it’s rechargeable so I don’t have to worry about replacing batteries. Currently favorite gadget in the kitchen I might buy another one for the bathroom!
