First off, let me say this dispenser looks *gorgeous* on my bathroom counter. The ribbed glass gives it a vintage apothecary vibe that makes my basic soap feel fancy. That chrome sensor pump? Total fingerprint magnet (in a good way).

Now the real tea: the sensor works about 70% of the time for me. When it does, it's magical - no more gunked-up pump handles! But sometimes I end up doing this awkward hand-waving dance like I'm casting spells before soap comes out. And yeah, the stream can be unpredictable - sometimes a perfect dollop, other times a sad little squirt that barely covers one fingertip.

Charging is decent though! I've had mine for three weeks without needing to recharge yet. Pro tip: keep the charging port cover snapped shut - mine popped off when I knocked it over during refill.

The glass feels substantial (no cheap plastic here), but I did have one heart-stopping moment when it slipped from my soapy hands. Thankfully survived the drop! That wide mouth makes refills mess-free, though you'll want to wipe drips off those chrome accents.

Would I buy again? Maybe for my guest bathroom where it's more about looks than daily function. For my main kitchen sink? I'll stick with my boring-but-reliable plastic dispenser.
