good morning, the pumps dont pump adequeately, sometimes it pumps out soap, other times nothing, they lock up, they come un-screwed from the locking cap. also, i ordered the black pumps with the black locking rings, i received black pumps, white locking rings. i was very diappointed with this product and i have had to go to another source to buy new ones.

I have been refilling with other soap for a year with no problem, even soap with little beads but probably it's best not to use that kind of soap.

I've never tried to use that. But looking at how it dispenses, I would doubt that the soap would foam. I think foaming soaps need an injection of air to get them to foam, don't they? This dispenser just ejects the liquid soap. Maybe someone else will have a better answer.

Most likely the reason it's not mentioned is the fact that it is very simple to clean and not a issue at all. The machine let's u know when any part needs attention and it is absolutely no problem at all. Warm soap/water with soaking is all there is to it. Very user friendly!

Mine actually just started clogging and I have used it with exclusively dawn dish soap. I think you do need to use their soap to prevent clogging!

Same problem here, I've noticed the clear dish soap has a warning not to use bleach, which may indicate that it may have some chemical that is corosive.

That's exactly why I bought these--popped one atop a reused condiment bottle. The soap (7th generation) flows freely but there are other problems... ... There is a small tube inside that necessitates you have at least 3" of soap left in the bottle, so you can never really let it get down to the bottom, and the soap doesn't really cleanly cut off pouring on this like a true liquid (liquor) does so there is a lot of excess soap gunk and drip mess atop the bottle, wasted and ugly. Basically I used up all my liquid soap and made me choose to buy bar dish soap... still yet better looking than a commercial ugly container!

Yes. When the unit is secured to the sink you pull up on the part you normally push down to dispense the soap. It's quick and easy. The only issue is judging how much soap to refill. By the time you can see the soap at the top, it will generally over flow once you put the plunger back in.

Mine is just stained from use. I'd imagine you'd have to wash it after every use to keep it bleach white. I've tried all types of soap and it's just stained.

That is a good question and I do not know the answer. Maybe you should contact the seller who made this soap and ask them. Best wishes.

Hi, I suppose its based on preference and what you're using it for. It is fairly forgiving, just trial and error! I personally just use it with a splash of water like any other soap.

Hi Alicia M What is not said in any shampooer books is you need to flush out the tubes with clean water. The tubes get plugged up with soap. That is what a shampooer shop told me is mostly what they work on. I had the soap not come out of mine. Even after use it I whip off the white tip that the sell person told me to do. Times I had suck on the soap part to get it to work. Then I gave up and add soap to the main water. When I had a water pumps go bad is you get water on the floor and you are stuck. Because it will not suck it up. So it might be plugged tubes. I had nothing but trouble with one. I could not get one floor done. I had two years left on it. I got rid of it. It was the worse shampooer I ever had! Most trouble I had with this one is beaters stop working on me. Or the wheel would melt or bend for the beaters would stop. Best wishes on it and I hope it helped you out. Linda C

It is produced as a liquid soap dispenser, so the consistency of the liquid is really the issue. If you used something more water-like in viscosity, the pump might not work as well. You wouldn't know until you tried it. Of course, if the liquid shampoo or conditioner or other types of liquid soap used were of a very high viscosity (more like molasses), then the pump might clog. We had a kitchen liquid soap dispenser where we had this problem - we bought liquid soap we thought the pump would use, but it was too viscous and the pump did not work correctly. I'm sure this applies to the pump in this product.

You're right, it's an incorrect description. I ended up not using it in the main bathroom because when used by real people, soap residue gathers on the rounded middle and looks very unattractive, thus requiring constant washing.

not that I have noticed and I am fairly sensitive to 'smell' that is out of place.I used to wash hands and face this morning, it's light and refreshing. If you give it a try, will you please let me know what YOU think of this soap? :)

Since I was using the same type of soap, I rinsed mine out with water and then refilled.No dishwasher involved. Still pumps perfectly.

Yes it will dispense soap...if you have purchased the additional attachments. It can dispense soap with low OR high pressure.
