This is perfect not only for the kitchen! I bought this dispenser for our main bathroom, as a hand soap dispenser because I am tired of removing all the drip-dried soap off the counter after our current dispenser drips all over the place. The built-in holder is awesome! The kitchen scrubby has been replaced with the nail brush. So, it may look funny but it is totally practical, and a time saver to me. I bought the white one because it was the only color available, but would gladly buy another one to better match the bathroom.
