simplehuman Triple Wall Mount Shower Pump, 3 x 15 fl. oz. Shampoo and Soap Dispensers, Stainless Steel

Listen, I like SimpleHuman the way I like Oxo. You can buy similar items for less, but what about the quality? How long do you want it to last? How much pleasure will be derived from using a quality product over something lesser?I read enough reviews to know what made this dispenser stand out from the competition, and made a mental note of the occasional reviewer nit (mainly that the individual dispensers jiggle a little). The upshot is, this dispenser is built like a tank and uses high-quality materials and incorporates excellent design. I love the looks and functionality. Upon opening the box, I knew I had made the right choice.Now here's the funny thing: SH touts the 3M adhesive and ease of installation, yet in the instructions the user is warned that screwing the dispenser into the wall is highly recommended. And considering the weight of the dispenser itself, plus 40 or so ounces of product I think a buyer would sooner or later regret not using screws and anchors. The really ironic thing is that screws are not included (perhaps for liability?) All of this means extra effort and with tile or a similar surface, a special drill bit and anchors and a healthy bit of persistence. But I'm telling you, it's worth it. My dispenser is rock-solid and all things considered should last for many, many years.As for the individual dispensers jiggling, that's something slightly noticeable when they are empty, but not when they are full.

I bought this to replace another product: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FGCW0KThe above product was compact but there were trade-offs with the annoying refill process, which was a pain if one of the dispensed products ran out before the others, and the fact it's entirely plastic. The plastic build was its downfall, as the main container began to crack, and then the threaded part for the pump snapped off when trying to clean out the old product.The simplehuman triple wall mount shower pump feels far more substantial and quality. I also appreciate the fact that I could individually remove and refill a pump with product. Refilling a pump is very straightforward and so is cleaning them out. Each squeeze of the pump dispenses a very usable amount of product and you can modulate it to lessen the amount. I also like the ability to hang my shaving razor on the side of a pump.The length of the warranty (5 years) and the ability to get replacement parts on the simplehuman website is also a big plus.I do see other people complaining about the mount's adhesive failing and I've not encountered that, even on a tiled wall, as I made sure to clean the surface and waited at least 24 hours for the VHB adhesive to cure to 90% strength. I do recommend reviewing the VHB curing chart, as it is temperature dependent.The adhesive IS very strong (3M VHB) and it is removable, but not reusable, as I did end up buying a 2nd wall mount after changing my mind on the initial mounting location (respect its depth if you have a smaller shower stall like me). You can use some Goo Gone or WD40 to weaken the adhesive, then separate it by inserting something like a grout spatula into it and working it off the wall (I used a plastic grout spatula with a hammer); I think some people have done something similar with fishing line. Afterward, you should be able to clean up the remaining adhesive with a razor scraper.

I have used these dispensers in my short term rental properties for a few years. I think I've purchased at least 4-5 sets. The issue I am having with them is that the individual dispensers are easily pushed up and out of the holes they hang in, and they do not lock in place. The manufacturer of this product needs to improve the design so that the individual pumps do not pop out of place so easily. This is an easy enhancement, and would prevent these from falling and breaking so often.The lids that you put on top of each dispenser is also poorly designed. The lid only has a small rubber lip that holds it in place when you push it on the top of the dispenser. The lids do not securely stay on the dispensers in a shower environment. Small amounts of humidity or soap will cause the rubber lip on the lids to gradually slide up and off the dispenser. Then the lids break on the tile floor and we're back to buying more parts.I will no longer be purchasing these dispensers because it is becoming an ongoing cost. There are mounts that hold actual bottles of shampoo, conditioner and soap, and those don't pop out of place and break. Simplehuman normally has outstanding products, but this is not one of them. I don't normally write bad reviews, but people need to know.
