    I have downloaded a voucher but wondered how others managed once the refill is empty re filling it with different scents other than the refills meant for this device as I have at least 10 handwashes to use lol but am curious about using this gadget and the price is the best its going to be with the voucher.

    Ive put a hole in the top of my bottle in the dispenser by piercing it with a hot metal stick (if you push thru the bit of plastic would block the dispenser when it gets to the bottom) and then refilled it with handwash and the gel that just rubs in and all work fine

    Thanks. Has anyone found it possible to open the bottle supplied with the device and refill it that way? Not seen the gadget properly so don't know how it works. Not sure i'd be buying it for the grabbit price and novelty when I have loads to get through, but if there is a better way than looking for hot metal stick to put hole in top, then the cheap handwashes I have would be better than the refills.

    I had 2 last week from my local Tesco, one for bathroom and one for the kitchen, as others have said they are fab for messy cooking hands, and I have elbow turn taps too!

    I gave my MIL a voucher and she tried to use it in Longton Tesco, who refused to let her use it as it wasn't one of the ones with your name on and an authenticity stamp! Grrr

    Been using this sytem for ages but found the refills expensive. I recently used the voucher and purchased a new system just because the refils came with it for £2.

    However, I have now put the new one in my bathroom as I used the 'hot rod piercing the top' way of opening the bottle and refilling it.

    Works a treat. Bargin for £2. Superhuman does a automatic handwash dispenser system for £30 which work exactly the same!
  • my kids have abused my dettol hand wash, i left it in the bathroom and the kids squirted most of it in the sink lol
