5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent value, November 16, 2008

This review is from: Danze D495958SS Parma Deck Mount Soap and Lotion Dispenser, Stainless Steel (Tools & Hardware)

We purchased two of these for our kitchen. Installation was a snap. The finish is beautiful and we like its sleek design. It's not big and bulky like some other brands. The finish goes well with our stainless steel faucet (a different brand). Other reviews have mentioned universal problems with the springs not being strong enough to dispense the soap or lotion. This dispenser's spring is very good. We use Method dish soap, which is quite thick, and have had no problems with dispensing. This is a thoughtfully designed, functional dispenser and, for the money, an especially good value.

I bought this dispenser to go with my new faucet (Schon 404). It's a great match, and I love the design aesthetic.

It worked great for a week, and suddenly started leaking soap. Then, when you go to pump soap, you now have to pump three, four, or maybe even five times to get soap to come out. But then it leaks for hours afterward. My husband seems to think that it's because of the nozzle, but after reading other reviews from this same brand, it appears to be an issue of the return spring quality. I'm going to look into replacing that.

This dispenser replaced a cheapo Home Depot dispenser that worked fabulously for at least five years with not a single problem - but it did have an arched nozzle. We tried to replace that dispensers functionality with this one, but they weren't interchangeable.

Oh, and two weeks after getting it, I've yet to be billed. It says it will ship soon. Hard to return something that shows it hasn't been shipped!

This review is from: Danze D495958SS Parma Deck Mount Soap and Lotion Dispenser, Stainless Steel (Tools & Hardware)

I purchased the Danze Parma because I wanted a soap dispense with simple style. Many of the ones I've looked at have too many curves or other styling that just didn't fit the modern look I wanted for my kitchen. It's been installed in the kitchen for almost two months not. I have to say I'm disappointed with the quality compared to the cheaper Pegasus dispenser I bought years ago from HD for my last place.

This dispenser is slim which I like, but it also mean it feels a bit unstable. As you push down, it can move a bit from side to side which I don't like. It's not broken or anything, but it just seems flimsy that way. Also, I've noticed that if you don't use it frequently, the soap (I'm guessing) must slide back down into the bottle rather than stay up the straw (like with a pump lotion bottle). Because of that, the next day or so, I find that I have to pump several times to get the liquid soap to come out. With my old dispenser, it always came out the minute I pushed down. The previous pump was good enough that I only need press down a little if I just wanted a dab of soap rather than a whole squirt. I don't have that fine control with the Danze.

Overall, it does the job, but I've had better.
