Is it optional to attach the soap dish?

Yes, the soap dish comes out easily and would be up to the user to use it or not. But there is no plug for the hole that the soap dish mounts in if you decide not to use the soap dish.

As the others have replied you do not have to install the soap dish. However, there is a small opening for the stem of the soap dish that might require a plug of some sort.

The soap dish is placed in a small mount and can be removed by simply picking it up. Then, you're left with a small (1/4)" hole.

Other reviewers have answered the question quite well, however; if one doesn'twant the soap tray, I found in my search a few months past that an identicalunit without the soap tray is available for slightly less money. I ordered the soap -tray model because the original unit had a soap tray and I wanted to continuethe same decor because of the age of my house.

you can take it off but there is a stem where it is attached that sticks up

It came with both adhesive and wall mount materials. The wall mount material is a wall plate and two screws. Once you attache that to the wall the soap dispenser just slides onto it. It's pretty secure; we've had no issues.

It does not need to be attached. I just placed mine in the cupboard, put my pans on it, and was ready to go! Even with the bottom pan not in the rack, it stands perfectly well! Love, love, love this rack!!!

The unit has a non-removable tank. Just flip up the top and pour in your choice of soap. Close the top and your done!

Yes, for the most part. As long as the dish detergent doesn't have any 'solids' in it, you are good to go. You will need to adjust the amount of soap depending on its viscosity.

Yes it is optional..but you don't have to worry about it. They do not provide all of the pieces to install this tray(missing screws). They provided me with 2 sets of another type of screw which I did not need instead.Enjoy

The towel holder is part of the 31 plus dimension; it is screwed in, so you do not have to have it attached.........

Ha. The soap keeps it in place. It's not weightless, but very light. Look, buy one and try it. Super cheap. I like it, but others might want something heavier that doesn't work. From this end, I've simply grown weary of soap soup sitting in non-draining containers.

Yes, you don't have to use the soap dispenser, it takes up the second hole. This is the greatest faucet I have ever used. You will love it.

There is an attatchment you can connect to the side that has a 2 prong hook, where you could hang two washclothes, it would even work to set a bar of soap sideways on top of, although it wasnt meant for that, or you could place a bar of soap inside the caddy or hand a washcloth over the front side of caddy. It is fairly large and tough caddy, I use it for my kids bath toys and it has held up wonderfully.

I mounted mine without the base plate also. It is 2 1/2". No soap dispenser comes with it. I browsed Amazon and found one the goes pretty well.

No extra hard wear needed however we had to cut the opening this was going into a bit larger than what we had. I've read several reviews prior to buying this soap dish and the main issue was the size. There is no standard size and all the dishes I checked our measured differently. Luckily we were not installing into a ticked wall so the fix was a quick one.

Absolutely. It allows you to use less soap and makes it easier to rinse the soap out.

I don't see a way to remove and reinstall the items in a different order. Even so, the dish would still provide a "ceiling" for the 2nd shelf which would limit the height of items on that shelf. It would be better to just eliminate the soap dish (if you could) and did not need it.

There's a plastic grate that goes under it. I don't remember if it was optional or not.

If there is not already one there - yes. I just took out a soap dispenser that was mounted to my sink. If you must cut a hole I would do some homework first. Your sink is likely made of stainless steel, so make sure you have the appropriate tool.

Yes. The spice rack and the towel bar are both add-ons, not necessary to the structural integrity of the unit. The caveat is cosmetic: there are predrilled assembly holes on both side panels which might require filling if that is an issue to you. Model (mine is 54220) assembly instructions in PDF format, and various instructional videos, are available on the manufacturer's website--catskillcraftsmen.com.
