Green Mason Jar Dispenser doesn't disappoint!,

This review is from: Mason Jar Dispenser Pint Green
After having trouble with several decorative soap / lotion dispensers, I'm always hesitant to buy them without first inspecting them up close. Fortunately, this one works very well. The pump itself is dark gray, and it seems to be made of thick, sturdy plastic with tight seals. It's set into what's probably an aluminum lid, also dark gray, shaped like the antique Mason jar zinc lids. The metal lid has a tight seal to the glass body of the jar, and I'm able to lay it on its side or turn it upside down without any leakage. The body of the jar is light green, exactly the color of recycled glass. Currently, I have amber-colored soap in it (soap details at the end of this review). When the sun comes in my kitchen window and shines through the glass, the effect is truly stunning. In case you can't read the text on the dispenser from the photo, there are 4 lines of text and line by line it says: "Mason", "+", "Patent Nov 30th", and "1858". The "+" symbol on the second line is not exactly a plus sign. It looks to me like a Maltese cross. I like it, but you may or may not. This is just something to consider, as the symbol is fairly prominent.
Please note that I haven't yet attempted to use this dispenser with lotion. My plan is to buy another one for that purpose and so obviously my inclination is that the pump is strong enough to handle the job. I will most likely only use lotions which are thin enough to pour into the base jar. I don't know about thick creams. Having said that, please bear in mind that I doubt I would trust any pump with a thick cream. Decorative-wise, this pump would work well in any traditional, eclectic, eco-friendly, or country kitchen. It would also be lovely in a kitchen with soft or neutral colors, a kitchen featuring green milk glass or recycled glass items, or a kitchen with an accent color in the shade of recycled glass. On the somewhat down side, the shipping time for us in Texas was six days--not terrible, just something to keep in mind if you're thinking of giving this as a gift. Also, the cost of our shipping was $6.95, bringing the total cost to $21.94. Knowing that the glass makes this a "fragile" item, I didn't mind so much except that normally, I would never pay $22 for a soap dispenser especially given that similar items (not nearly so pretty imho, but still, similarly made) can be found at Target for roughly $14 before tax. However, this dispenser has proven to be a reliable, attractive addition to our kitchen, and we love, love, love it! Fyi, to offset the cost, I decided to try Dr. Bonner's peppermint soap in the 32 oz size Dr. Bronner's Pure Castile Soap - Peppermint (32 oz.), which at $.27 / oz (before tax, bought locally) has also proven to be a wonderful find.

Clever Idea, but...,

This review is from: Mason Jar Dispenser Pint Green
I like the idea of using a mason jar as a soap dispenser :) When I actually received the product and looked at it up close, though, I'd hoped that the quality of the glass and lid would've been a little better. Everything is fully functional, but to me it looks somewhat cheaply made. The jar has a very noticeable seam where the mold was cast, and the glass itself has some dimples and bubbles. These are fairly minor, though. The metal lid is nice, but the brown paint coating was not even over some parts. Even when I first took the product out of the box, it looked as though a couple of crevices in the lid had already started to rust where the paint did not completely cover the lid. I really liked the fact that it had a plastic pump because I'm skeptical of the metal pumps on so many dispensers available. However, in this dispenser, every time I want to pump some soap, I have to put my hand in between the pump and the top of the jar lid because the lid is so wide. (There's not much clearance between the two.) The nice thing about the lid, though, is that it can screw onto pretty much any jar of similar size. So if you prefer clear glass instead of green, just put the lid on a jar with clear glass. (I kind of wish they sold the lid with the pump as its own product.)
So overall, very clever product, but it just doesn't work for me as much as I hoped it would. If the glass and lid were better quality and the pump spout reached a little farther, then I would give it more stars.

Received this as promised. Unfortunately the bottom was broke out of the jar. I called the company who sent it related the condition in which it had arrived. Two days later I received another in perfect condition. Looking forward to giving it as a Christmas gift.
