Simplehuman Liquid Sensor Pump

The pump is designed to handle standard liquid hand soaps and lotions effectively. However, it is not compatible with foaming soaps or soaps containing heavy exfoliants, which can clog the internal mechanism.

The infrared sensor is calibrated to detect motion directly beneath the nozzle. While it is generally precise, it is best to turn the unit off or move it aside if you are wiping down the immediate area to avoid accidental dispensing.

Battery life depends on usage frequency, but most users find that a fresh set of batteries lasts several months. The unit uses standard batteries, making replacements straightforward and inexpensive.

The brushed stainless steel finish is designed to be durable and relatively resistant to smudges. While it may show occasional marks, a quick wipe with a damp cloth is usually enough to keep it looking clean.

The dispenser is water-resistant, but it is not waterproof. It is perfectly safe for use on a bathroom or kitchen countertop, but you should avoid submerging it or placing it directly in the path of a shower spray.

Refilling is simple. The top of the unit is designed for easy access, allowing you to pour in your preferred soap or lotion without needing to disassemble the pump or make a mess.
