GermGuardian SD410 Automatic Hands Free Soap and Sanitizer Dispenser for Office, School Home and More, Large Capacity 500ml

I own two simplehuman automatic hand soap dispensers but the capacity is too small and I find myself refilling very often. So I got the GermGuardian for its large 500mL capacity. While the capacity is twice as big, the technology is definitely lacking. The GermGuardian uses 4 AA batteries (not included). In order to access the battery compartment, I must unscrew the lid and put the lid upside down. This could be messy if there’s any soap residue on the tube. The battery compartment cover is a bit difficult to pry open, I had to use a scissor to help. It’s pretty simple to use. There’s a touch sensitive button on the top, long press to turn on/off, quick 2 presses to change between thinner soap to thicker soap dispensing. No way to adjust how much soap it will dispense though. Since I usually like to use thicker soaps, it recommends the high volume dispensing mode. I find the high volume dispensing mode dispensing a bit too much soap for my liking so I ended up using the low volume dispensing (that’s recommend for thinner soaps). The sensor works quickly but with thicker soaps, it takes a little while for it to finish dripping. I like the clear bottle because I know exactly when it needs to be refilled. However, the bottle opening is very small, therefore, making it difficult to refill the bottle. This hands free soap dispenser is useful, especially for times like this. It’s good but not great. Decent value at the current listed price of $28.14.
