Love this soap but it eventually partially clogs the soap dispenser I have it in and squirts wildly - suggestions?

I have this problem as well, even with it watered down for a foaming dispenser. I try to just rinse the tip of the dispenser when I wash my hands so it doesn't get that hardened clump on the end.

I would suggest a foaming pump. 1/3 soap, 2/3 water. And it works great!! If you are not wanting to buy a foaming pump, then i have heard that you can also mix 1/3 to 2/3 with aloe vera gel for a more soap like consistancy. Hope this helps!

I use "The Dispenser III" in the shower. Sometimes a clog will form if you don't use a particular dispenser for a week or more. But I find I can just wipe the nozzle with a washcloth and the pump is strong enough to pop out whatever plug remains - not wasted as it lathers up on the washcloth anyway. I've been using those dispensers with Dr. Bronners for years and years.

While cleaning, you may have inadvertently lost the very tiny white plastic bead that sits loose inside the pump assembly at the bottom of the spring piece. Same thing happened to both my units. So I used a round pinhead from a decorative hatpin. Just pulled it loose from the pin and dropped it into the bottom of pump shaft and all worked again. The bead prevents the pump from pushing air back into the soap reservoir instead of out the dispensing tip.

Soap dispenser works pretty well. Yes I would purchase it again but would prefer one that will turn on by touch as there is a lot of water droplets when ever you touch the knob. Just more to wipe down n

Actually yes I've been experimenting with that of late. Helps to remove all the old soap first. So far it's working. I've been doing it for a couple of months now. It appears it's like enough to work. And I'm happy that. Let me know otherwise if you have a different experience.

You might try pumping less... or take a needle to the spray hole at both the entry and exit points to make sure there is no obstruction. You could also try boiling the spray tip with dish soap to clean it out.

I have tried to use foam soap in different dispensers and it only foams when dispensed from it's own container. There must be something about the pump that is different in the foaming containers that makes it foam up. When I tried to dispense the foaming soap from another dispenser I had purchased, it just came out as a runny liquid.

Put some soap in it and try to run soap through until it comes out. You may need to pull down on the dispenser tip

Have you tried a different soap? I use Dawn in mine and it works just fine. As I stated before fill very slowly as it tends to get air bubbles and overflows if you fill quickly.

I'm thinking several things* hard water* using more scoops than requiredTry using half cup vinegar in your rinse softener dispenser...perhaps that might clean it up?If all else fails I would suggest you contact molly suds to see what they suggest etc

Hmm... We've refilled ours several times without issue... Does the pump portion work (i.e. go up and down) but no soap comes out? Did you try emptying it and adding more water to the soap and water mixture? May be possible that the soap mixture is too thick...

We haven't had this problem yet, but soaking it in the hot soapy water, as previously suggested should work. It is also helpful to pump some hot, clear water through the tube to make sure it's clear.

Mine leaked too. I called the manufacturer's customer support phone number and they gave me a new one free. I also had a problem with the soap dispenser. I did the same and they sent me a new one. I must say the customer service is pretty good, but why do we as customers have to go through all of this? They have to improve quality control of their products.

Try unscrewing it and make sure it's not clogged, I've not had this problem, so I hope this works for you. My daughter loves this stuff.

I just refilled one of mine recently and didn't have any problem. I wonder if soaking the pump action portion in hot water with a little vinegar might clear any soap build-up that may be clogging the mechanism.

I broke one of these dispensers by using B&B; hand soap. It was not a clear variety. From reading the problems people have had with these pumps, I'm now wondering if it was the pump or the soap!I should say that I have another one of these pumps and it is still going strong. I've only used clear type soap in it.

It should work fine for dish soap. If the tip clogged, you'd probably have to empty the soap inside to fix the clog. I've never had a problem with it clogging using anything with the consistency of dish soap- even when it might not be used for three weeks while I'm away on vacation. I did have to unclog one when I used it with a thick conditioner and didn't use that conditioner for a couple months. I don't think you'd run into that problem with your proposed use. The pressure exerted when the soap is dispensed combined with the fact that the soap comes out of the bottom minimizes any clogging issue if you refill the dispenser when it starts to get low.

My batteries r still going. We in stalled faucet in Feb 2014. They are 'C' Rayovac batteries. Make sure ur sink is deep enough. I know someone who bought another faucet and she has to dangle the head as the water splashes too much outside the sink - i did read a review fr simeone that purchased this faucet and same thing occurred. I really wish the soap dispenser had same touch concept for a real clean splash free effect. Overall very happy w purchase.
