Non Working Pump !

Would Not Recommend

I Agree With Everyone Else. The Pump Doesn't Work, & No Direction On How To Engage It ! I Will Not Be Buying Dial Hand Soap AGAIN ! I’ll Buy Method For Me, And Soft Soap For My Husband. I Guess I Will Be Pouring This Into The Empty Soft Soap Dispenser, So We Can Use It. Very Disappointed In Dial. I Thought Ya’ll Were Better Than This.

Liquid Hand Soap Feels Like Water

You’re trying to pull a fast one on us by diluting the liquid hand soap. It’s practically useless. I won’t be buying it again. It’s a shame. You used to be the leader in soap. Now your product is like colored water.

I bought this soap a few days ago. Huge disappointment, not expected from a Dial product.The soap is so diluted, is like washing your hands with colored water, no suds, just watery golden liquid. Shame,shame shame !!!!! I shall tell everybody about this insulting experience.

I usually buy your hand soap. However, lately the pump to dispense it does not work right. I can't get it to dispense at all. Now I'm ready to switch to Softsoap brand. It's comparable in price for the 7.5 oz product. I'll be buying the other product from now on. Not gonna fool with Dial anymore. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else.
