Nah, where's the fun in that? Half the excitement is playing the guessing game of whether it'll actually give you soap or just air every time. Keeps you on your toes!

you clearly haven't tried the new ones from Dyson. they'll last way longer than a week, trust me and no more dealing with that crap.

those dispensers work just fine. you're probably just not filling them up enough.

lmao did you just assume someone out there is gonna make a reliable automatic soap dispenser and not just rebrand a sensor and a mini pump as "iot technology" for 5x the price?

yeah can we also make them not dispense like a gallon of soap with one button press that'd be great

are you really surprised that a product made to be cheap and last forever actually doesn't?

yeah because humans are notoriously good at maintaining a $200 machine that literally only does one

seriously, i've gone through more soap dispensers than i can count. the sensors must be made of paper mache or something. maybe we should just switch to a good old-fashioned pump and call it a day.

apparently a web developer's consensus is that a functional auto soap dispenser is as rare as a friday w/o a merge conflict.

fr, those things are such a scam. they break like clockwork. and then you gotta buy a whole new one smh

omg i'm so over them too. can we also make the ones in public bathrooms not shoot soap out at like 90mph?

don't you think we spend enough money on tech and innovation to figure this out already?

seriously, how hard is it to make a soap dispenser that doesn't break every time you look at it? like, is this really the best we can do?
0 3 0
I know, right? It's so frustrating when those damn things stop working after a few days. What's the point if they can't even last a week? Might as well go back to the old-fashioned pump soap.

fr tho, how hard is it to make a decent soap dispenser? stop whining and use your hands like the rest of us

are you kidding me, have you seen the ones at the gym? they're always broken after 3 days

are they that hard to design or do companies just not care?

for real, they always break so fast. what do you expect when they're made so cheap. vote with your wallet people, stop buying that junk and maybe companies will finally start making quality stuff.

lol that's just soap dispenser expectations vs reality tho

idk maybe we should just name them "fragrant babysitters" and be done with it

Not everyone is as lazy as you, I've had mine working fine for months, just clean it occasionally and it won't clog

i'm so down for that, but can we also get rid of the ones that automatically spray everywhere but the hands and instead just make sure it's a gentle pulse that doesn't drown me in soap

ikr? and that's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to shitty design.
