Soap Dispenser Comparison: Wall-Mounted, Automatic & Touch-Free Alternatives
Soap Dispenser or Soap Holder – What Truly Makes Sense?
Wall mounted soap dispensers or the classic soap dispenser pump are a common sight in many bathrooms – but are they really the smartest choice? We take a closer look at the most popular ways to store soap in everyday life: from the floating SAVONT magnetic soap holder to traditional soap dishes and even the automatic soap dispenser. Our focus: hygiene, functionality, sustainability, and actual soap consumption.
Conclusion: Which Soap Holder or Soap Dispenser Makes Sense?
The comparison reveals: Soap dispensers – whether a simple soap dispenser pump or an automatic soap dispenser mounted on the wall – may seem convenient at first glance, but they come with clear drawbacks. They generate plastic waste, require regular maintenance, and often lead to significantly higher soap usage.
Traditional soap dishes may be inexpensive, but in practice, they're usually unhygienic: the bar soap sits in water, becomes sticky, or turns mushy. If you prefer using bar soap, you need a smarter solution.
The SAVONT magnetic soap holder clearly stands out: it combines hygiene, sustainability, and design – with no drilling, no batteries. The soap floats freely, dries quickly, and becomes a true eye-catcher in your bathroom.
Especially if you're looking for a wall mounted soap dispenser, it's worth thinking outside the box: the SAVONT magnetic soap holder offers an elegant and eco-friendly alternative – putting an end to overused liquid soap and messy countertops.
Many users underestimate how much liquid soap is dispensed daily from a soap dispenser:
- Per hand wash: approx. 1–2 ml of liquid soap per pump
- Per day (with 6–8 hand washes): approx. 10–15 ml of liquid soap
- So a 500 ml soap dispenser pump lasts for: around 30–50 uses = roughly 2–4 weeks
-
Typical usage:
approx. 2–3 g per day with normal use (1–2 people) -
So a 100 g bar lasts for:
around 30–50 days = 4–7 weeks
The drier the soap is stored after use, the longer it will last. SAVONT extends the lifespan – no water pooling, no softening.
One single pump is actually enough – but many people instinctively use two. This quickly leads to a wall mounted soap dispenser running through 500 ml in just 2–3 weeks.
Bar soap, on the other hand, usually lasts twice as long – especially when it dries completely after use, as it does with SAVONT, without softening or turning mushy.
SAVONT – the Soap Dispenser for Bar Soap
After a direct comparison, one thing is clear: if you want to use bar soap, you need a system that combines hygiene, sustainability, and convenience. The SAVONT soap dispenser delivers exactly that – thoughtfully designed down to the last detail. No drilling, no batteries, no mess. Here are the key benefits at a glance:
No more slimy soap leftovers – finally!
I had no idea soap could float – but now I wouldn’t want anything else.
Automatic soap dispensers with sensors are often seen as especially hygienic – since there’s no direct skin contact. But in reality, it’s a different story: Many devices fail frequently due to dead batteries or dirty sensors. The result? People end up improvising with dirty hands – and the promised hygiene turns into the opposite.
A smarter alternative is the SAVONT magnetic soap holder: As a non-electric soap dispenser for bar soap, it works without contact, reliably – and without power or maintenance. The soap stays clean, dries from all sides, and never sits in water.
Most soap dispensers – whether wall mounted or countertop – rely on liquid soap in plastic bottles. Refillable dispensers or bar soap are more sustainable choices. The SAVONT soap holder replaces the traditional soap dispenser entirely – with zero packaging waste, no energy use, and no refill hassle.
Wall mounted soap dispensers may look sleek and organized – but they come with one major drawback: Once installed, the drill holes are permanent.
Especially in the bathroom – one of the most valuable rooms in a home – that’s a real risk. If the dispenser breaks or you want to update your design, you’re left with visible holes that often won’t match a new model.
If you want to stay flexible, go for a soap dispenser without wall mounting – or choose an alternative like the SAVONT soap holder, which requires no drilling, no screws, and no glue.
Soap dishes may look classic and simple at first glance – but in everyday use, they’re often impractical:
- They tend to fill with water, causing the soap to soften and get used up faster.
- If the dish has drainage holes, water runs onto the sink area – leaving messy soap residue.
- The soap always sits on a surface – it can’t dry properly and wears down quickly.
- Many soap dishes are placed outside the sink – leading to stains on bathroom furniture or countertops.
If you want to store bar soap in a hygienic, clean, and elegant way, the SAVONT soap holder offers a smart solution: The soap floats, dries from all sides, and never touches a surface.
Soap dispensers may look tidy – but in everyday use, they come with several drawbacks:
- They need frequent refilling – either with plastic refill pouches or by replacing the entire bottle.
- Soap dispensers are usually placed on the sink or bathroom furniture. When washing hands, water drips around the area – often creating a wet, unhygienic spot around the bottle.
A smarter option is a soap dispenser with no counter space needed – like the SAVONT soap holder, which is mounted directly inside the sink. The soap floats, stays dry – and your surfaces stay clean.
Many people assume that soap dispensers provide the perfect dose – but in reality, that’s often not the case.
Each pump typically releases a thick drop of liquid soap onto wet hands. It’s hard to spread evenly – and much of it ends up washed down the drain unused.
Bar soap works differently: The friction immediately creates a uniform lather on the skin. You naturally use only as much as you need – no dripping, no overdosing.
If you’re looking to use soap more consciously and efficiently, solid soap with a dedicated soap holder like SAVONT is the smarter choice.
Barsy vs. Flacon – the Soap Showdown
What happens when bar soap takes on liquid soap – right at the sink? Barsy, our magnetic hero, stands firm. Flacon, the eternal dripper, starts slipping. Watch this short video to see why bar soap holders can be not only more practical but also way more entertaining. No spoilers – but a twist awaits.
