I have three other standard sensor pumps and love the convenience of hands free soap. This is replacing one I had in a bathroom, that stopped working after about 2 years. I've had the others for about 4 years and they are still working well. I considered getting the ones with the rechargeable battery, but decided to just stick with the same look in all of my bathrooms and kitchen. I like the aesthetics of this one, as well as being able to see how much soap I have left. Hope this one lasts longer than the one it is replacing.
