Automatic Sensor Soap Dispenser with Foam or Liquid Head

Your hand goes under it and the soap arrives

Flour on both hands, or paint, or the bottom of a chicken. You hold one palm flat under the nozzle, the sensor in the notch picks it up, and a dome of foam lands in your hand without anything to press. Behind it, on the front of the cylinder, a long window shows exactly how much is left, so refilling stops being a surprise on a Sunday morning.

The body is ABS, 195 mm tall on a footprint of 75 by 108 mm, and it weighs 249 g full of nothing. There is one physical control, a power button on the top lip. It charges over USB, so it stands on a basin surround with no cable trailing and no battery door to open. Two heads share this body: FoamCharge whips liquid soap into foam, DropCharge gives it to you as a plain drop.

Key Benefits

• An infrared sensor instead of a pump. The eye sits under the lip above the nozzle. Nothing has to be pressed with a wet or floury hand.
• A window down the front. The level is visible at a glance rather than by lifting and shaking the bottle.
• Foam or liquid, your choice. The option name says which head you get. The body, sensor and charging are the same on both.
• USB charging. It runs from an internal cell charged over USB, so there is no cable on the counter in daily use and no batteries to buy.
• Small footprint. 75 by 108 mm on the base and 195 mm tall, in pearl white or abyss black.

Best for: a kitchen sink where hands are dirty before they are clean, and a basin where a pump bottle gets knocked over. Choose the foam head if you want a bottle of soap to last longer per press.

Why It Works

Two details make the difference between a sensor dispenser you keep and one you unplug. The first is where the eye sits: here it is recessed in a notch directly above the nozzle, so it reads a hand held under the spout rather than anything that passes nearby. The second is the reservoir window. A sealed opaque body means you find out it is empty at the worst moment; a clear strip down the front means you top it up when you notice. The reservoir holds under 500 mL, which for a foam head is a lot of pumps.

How It Fits Your Routine

By the kitchen tap it is the version that gets used most. Raw meat, egg, dough: the hand goes under, the foam comes out, and the dispenser stays clean because nothing touched it.

In a bathroom the window earns its place. You see the level from the door, and the flat top means nothing collects around a pump collar.

Filling and charging are the two jobs it asks of you. Unscrew the top section, pour in liquid hand soap, and use the USB port to charge it. Foam heads prefer soap thin enough to pass through the mesh; a thick gel will need diluting, and you supply your own soap.

FAQ

Does it come with a wall bracket? The box holds one dispenser, ready to stand on a basin surround or a kitchen counter. The maker also photographs it stuck flat to a smooth wall above the tap, so you can mount it there with your own adhesive pad if you prefer.

What is the difference between FoamCharge and DropCharge? The head. FoamCharge pushes liquid soap through a foaming mesh so it arrives as a whipped dome. DropCharge dispenses the same soap as a plain liquid drop.

Does soap come with it? No. You fill it with your own liquid hand soap. For the foam head, a thinner soap works better than a thick gel.

How is it powered? By an internal rechargeable cell that tops up over USB, so it stands cable free on the basin in daily use and there are no batteries to buy.
