Very good all-around soap dispenser
Color: White
I tried out this soap dispenser as somebody who has just used the retail bottle with a free floating sponge for...decades. Right off the bat, what I most appreciate is the built-in sponge holder, eliminating the sponge living in a perpetual balance act on some portion of the sink, often taking a dive into the cold, murky water of a soaking dish. The holder fits a basic Scotch-Brite sponge/scour pad perfectly.
The soap dispenser is much lighter than I assumed at first glance, and bigger than I thought it would be from the photos, but these turned out to be welcome attributes. It can hold nearly a full 24oz bottle of Dawn dishsoap.
The color of the plastic is a little more off-white than the pictures, which was also welcome as it's less assuming on the kitchen sink. It looks like it has a bamboo base, or some other light colored wood that matches the off-white very well. I don't mean to get too deep on the appearances, but suffice to say, it's bland enough to blend in with a lot of different decors.
The only reason for four stars is that the sponge holder has no way to drain, so over time, it's going to get pretty gross in there and require a clean out. However, the plastic seems pretty basic, so my hunch is that it would be easy to drill a few small holes at the bottom of the sponge holder to allow any accumulated liquid to drain out and prolong the period in between soap dispenser cleanouts.
The price tag is a little steep at the time of this writing ($21.49). However, the return on that investment is the piece of mind of keeping the sponge in ONE place, always at the ready and being able to dispense a predictable amount of soap each time instead of flipping the cap of the retail bottle and inevitably getting a sinkful's worth of soap for a single coffee cup.
Overall, I'm pretty pleased with this and would recommend it.
