Will an automatic dispenser work with thick dish soap or foaming soap?
Reviewer consensus
Mainstream reviewers note this is one of the biggest sources of frustration. r/BuyItForLife and r/simplehuman threads repeatedly recommend diluting thick dish soap with water for any sensor pump, and several Reddit users say overly thin or overly thick soaps cause clogs, misfires, or under-dispensing. Dedicated foaming dispensers are a separate product class — most of the picks here are designed for standard liquid soap.
