Such an accessory could only be seen in a hotel or an expensive restaurant. Now the dispenser for liquid soap is not at all a luxury. It is worth noting that the range of such products is quite large. How to choose an automatic soap dispenser?
Attention to the material
In the manufacture of automatic dispensers for soap or toothpaste, metal is usually used. More specifically, for these purposes, most often take aluminum or stainless steel. Even a weighted automatic dispenser is made of such material.
Some manufacturers seek to attract consumers and create accessories from durable plastic and glass. Often there are even combined models in which several materials are perfectly combined at once.
More expensive dispensers are made of decorative stone, crystals, mother of pearl natural veneer. All these models are stylishly decorated. In this case, the fantasy of designers knows no bounds.
Automatic paste dispenser

At the same time, it was not always possible to put the amount of toothpaste on the brush. A similar product greatly simplified the process. Just insert the brush into the dispenser. That's all.
Such accessories have become no less popular than dispensers for liquid soap. It should be noted that the dispensers for toothpastes are made of various materials and, if necessary, you can choose the one that fits perfectly into the overall design of the room. If you are thinking about buying such an accessory, then get ready for the fact that most of the models are attached to the wall.

The touch dispenser works automatically, just bring your hand to the hole. As a result, the necessary amount of liquid soap will be supplied. This is due to the design features of the dispenser.

It is enough for a person to simply bring his hand to the hole. In addition, it is necessary to adjust the dosage. In the future, the amount of soap will be allocated automatically.
It is worth noting that the touch automatic dispenser is equipped, as a rule, with a quiet pump. Therefore, the accessory does not create a lot of noise. Such devices work only from the mains.

It is worth noting that such accessories are quite simple to use. The automatic dispenser is attached to the wall. The accessory is equipped with a top valve, when pressed, a liquid soap is dispensed. The button serves as a kind of piston that squeezes the product into the palm of your hand.

The automatic wall mounted soap dispenser can be installed independently if necessary. This requires:
- Electric drill.

It should be noted that the dispenser should be located at a certain height from the floor. The product should be convenient to use not only for an adult, but also for a child.
The selected location should be noted. After that, you can make a hole and insert the dowel into it. After that, the automatic dispenser should be attached to the wall and fixed with a self-tapping screw.
Table dispenser
Such accessories are very similar to small and cute bottles. An automatic paste dispenser can be placed next to them. After all, dispensers are often sold in a kit with a container for toothbrushes and a soap dish for solid soap. This approach allows you to create a stylish and unified ensemble.

Built-in accessories
If your bathroom is designed in a minimalist style, you should pay attention to the built-in dispensers. In this case, it is possible to remove the container with liquid soap in a place inaccessible to the public. You can place a soap dispenser under the sink. Usually only a valve is led upstairs. In a conspicuous place, there will remain a faucet supplying a means and a chrome button.
Of course, if desired, you can install a weighted automatic dispenser, but such an accessory will stand out among the big picture, and catch the eye. In addition, such products are not suitable for use in everyday life.
The method of refueling and filing funds
An automatic dispenser can differ from other products not only in appearance and installation method, but also in design. When choosing such an accessory, few people are interested in how to refuel it. But this is also important. Most often it is bulk models. They are equipped, as a rule, with special flasks acting as storage for gel or soap. When the product in the container runs out, it is simply replaced with a new one. There is no need to buy soap with a similar composition.
There are cartridge dispensers. They usually change the flask with the tool. This refueling option is much simpler. However, for certain models, the purchase of branded containers with the tool is required. In other words, it becomes necessary to purchase soap from the original manufacturer. It should be noted that the cost of cartridge dispensers is much higher than the cost of bulk accessories.
As for the supply of soap, it can also be carried out in several ways. Electronic and mechanical dispensers are allowed to fill not only with liquid, but also with gel-like fillers.
There are products that can convert soap immediately into foam. These accessories include Tork dispenser models. In addition, the design of such devices is no less attractive. That's just the cost, in contrast to the cost of inkjet products is higher. Most modern automatic dispensers differ from their predecessors in a more original design, as well as in the way of filling and feeding liquid filler.
