Works brilliantly, November 28, 2007
I hate reviews that don't tell you what you need to know, so here's what you need to know:
- Attaching it to the wall can be done by screws or by using the included adhesive. The adhesive is a silicone based stuff that, once attached, pretty much isn't going anywhere ever. So if you stick it up, get it right the first time, it's not coming back off.
- The three units are individually removable from the base unit for easy refilling; they just slide off and on. These units can also be purchased separately if you accidentally break one.
- Priming the pumps is tricky at first. Follow directions precisely, you have to press the button in, cover the outlet hole with a finger, let the button come back out, uncover the outlet hole. Repeat all 4 steps until you get the stuff in there.
- The pump mechanisms are fairly basic, I can't see how one would break other than the spring going bad. However, they don't pump a lot of fluid. I usually have to press it 4-5 times to get enough shampoo out for use. The thickness of the fluid being used makes a slight difference here.
- The whole unit is a bit larger than I expected. It's about 4 inches deep and fully a foot across. But it's fine when mounted.
- The base for the dispenser has some little plastic hooks on it, handy for hanging various items from. Don't hang anything heavy though, the hooks will break and then how do you replace the base which is permaglued to the wall? Stick with very light things on ropes. And hang them high so pets can't reach them and add more weight.

Works well, but......., June 14, 2010
It works well, and I have enjoyed having hands free, but the fake chrome finish corrodes into a nasty green stuff that smears along the lid and other parts of the dispenser. I don't really wanted that stuff in my kids' hair, etc. I noticed the white one, without the chrome, is fine. Not buying the chrome one anymore.

Easy to fill; elimates bathtub clutter, November 4, 2006
We love our Aviva three chamber dispenser so much that we installed one in our daughter's first apartment. The unit is easy to install with the adhesive provided. It is a snap to fill and refill the chambers. And I love that we no longer have multiple bottles of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash cluttering up our bathtub and shower. I think this would make a great gift for people with arthritis because you can get shampoo etc out of the dispenser with one hand -- and without struggling with opening lids of bottles.
