Umbra Penguin Pump, Kitchen Soap Dispenser,12 oz (355 ml), Black

Stylish, Functional, Durable. Used brand and product overseas for years.

I've been using these pumps for over a year and love them! I use one in the bathroom and another in the kitchen. IMO they combine style, functionality and durability beautifully. The design of this dispenser is awesome - modern, sleek, and cool. The "window" allows you to see the level of soap/lotion in it, which is a feature I really appreciate (no more guessing how much soap is left in the dispenser). Best of all, the dispensers are ultra easy to fill. The opening is wide (about 3" in diameter) so you can pour soap/lotion into it easily, without spills, overflow, having to wipe messes, etc. I've purchased SOOOOOO many dispensers in the past 20 years, and these Umbra Penguins are my absolute favorite. IMO they're a bargain too, especially with free shipping through Amazon Prime. Buy this... you'll love it!

I purchased this pump to use at my kitchen sink for dishsoap after having had the bathroom (shorter) versions. I had one bathroom pump, then I ordered another...so you can see I'm a loyal fan! The pump is fantastic and clearer, at least to me, than other pumps. There is a clear cup (think bathroom sink cup) with threading at the top lip, which the entire pump (housed in the metallic part) screws onto. This "cup" means I can clean inside of it, can reach all corners of the inside of the lotion/soap holder. The pump feels solid, as it's not just the nozzle sticking out that you press down on-- you press down on the entire top (think of patting a penguin on the head...). The brushed metal look is nice- it's not too shiny, looks classy. Also, I like the view-window to let me know when I'm getting low on soap (though you can always see that on the bottom, where the soap cup is visible on the bottom). I got what I expected: a quality soap pump from Umbra. I should also state that this has been in use many, many times per day (I clean a LOT of baby bottles and pump parts daily) and it shows no signs of problems. Great product!

Some people noted in the reviews of this product that rusted develop. I have three of these and rest is never developed. I use a very generic soap. I don't dilute it with water. Maybe it's more a problem with the type of soap or dilution than the actual product itself. The nozzle is somewhat fragile. I've never had one break off but I can certainly imagine that it is not well seeded nor is the metal nozzle firmly attached to the main body. It is possible to twisted but I have pushed it in firmly in those cases. Overall I love the style. It's easy to push down. A small amount of soap comes out. It's easy to refill. I use these for face soap in the bathroom and shower. I also use them for dishwashing soap by the side of the sink. I like the design. I like the ergonomics. I understand it is a relatively simple product that lends itself to problems due to the fact that it appears to be rather simply made. However, I find it both attractive and easy to use.

I love the design! Form and function all in one. I had to replace my other one that I had for 20 years when it broke.

I looked a lot of reviews of soap dispensers online before buying this one. I wanted something silver or metallic, and a lot of the ones like this for sale seem to lose their metallic paint/plating rather fast (according to the reviews I read). This dispenser, however, has not had its surface chip or rub off. It still looks nice and metallic like in the picture. Best features: * Stable (I can pump the top with my elbow or arm if my hands are greasy, and it won't fall over.) * Clean & neat (Soap dispenses without dripping.) * Attractive * Tactile-wise, nice to the touch (never feels cold) * Easy to refill (Unlike standard dispensers that require you to get sticky or soapy to refill, the bottom of this one screws off easily and neatly, so it's very easy to refill)

I have two Umbra penguin soap pumps at the kitchen sink - one for soap and the other for lotion. They have been in frequent use for a couple of years with never a clog or a drip! Both of mine are black, so I use different colors of soap & lotion so that no one gets confused. I like that I can see the fill level through the front, so I don't risk finding the container empty when I need it most. It is easy to press on the top with my clean wrist or the back of my hand, so I never have to touch the dispenser with dirty or greasy fingers - this means the dispensers still look good after all this time. The (black) case cover unscrews from a clear, wide-mouth container, so it is super easy to refill. I had a chrome caddy that grapefruit scented soap & lotion came in, and the Umbra dispensers fit perfectly into that caddy. This purchase has worked out really well for me. An easy 5 stars.

The worst! Leaks everywhere!

Diseño precioso y comodísimo. No gotea, sale lo justo. Es muy práctico. Lo había comprado hace años en USA y estaba como nuevo. Se rompió porque se me cayó. Feliz de que Amazon lo tuviera y me lo haya entregado en menos de 24 hrs!

Se me muy bonita la jabonera con un estilo nuevo y moderno, es super suave al momento de presionar para obtener el jabon, la capacidad es grande y no es necesario rellenar constantemente, relacion precio - calidad deja un poquito que desear pero si lo recomiendo completamente.

Dies ist bereits mein zweiter Penguin. Von der Funktion bin ich super zufrieden damit. Bei mir wird er für Spülmittel benutzt. Mein erster Spender war in schwarz und hat mehrere Jahre gehalten, aber die gummierte Oberfläche klebte fürchterlich. Das mit der gummierten Oberfläche würde ich wirklich ändern. Bei meinem zweiten Spender ist die Oberfläche glatt und sieht, wie ich finde, toll und edel aus. Das finde übrigens nicht nur ich:)

Es un dispensador muy cómodo y práctico, con las botellas de detergente de vajilla se resbalan las manos. Además tiene un diseño muy bonito. He comprado dos, uno para el jabón de manos y otro para el detergente, y queda muy bonito en la cocina!

Esse dispenser é lindoo e funcional. É o segundo que temos aqui em casa.
