Can the unit be hung on the wall?

It sure can. The same unit could be placed on the counter or on the wall. It has a removable stand to place it on the counter. For placement on the wall, you can either leave the stand attached to the unit or remove it and use just the body. The bottom of the stand catches flakes of soap that miss your hands, so you might want to leave it on even for wall installation.

Do I have to drill the wall to hang the unit?

Personally, I love drilling, but I hate holes. So, we give you options: You can use either screws or strong double-sided adhesive to hold Eco Soapr on the wall. When you need to charge Eco Soapr, the mounting bracket will stay on the wall while you remove the device and charge it.

What is the size of the bars of soap that fit inside Eco Soapr?

Most soap bars are perfectly suitable to be grated in Eco Soapr. No need to worry about high volume commercial brands. The device will not be clogged and will generate perfect flakes. However, some of the very soft bars produced by small batch artisan soap makers from olive and coconut oils might be too soft to work well in our device. We will keep a list of soaps that do not perform well on our website and urge our customers to share their experiences for the benefit of others.

What about humidity? I live in Florida. Will Eco Soapr work there?

I did not see anyone using a washcloth in your video. Why is that? Will Eco Soapr work with a washcloth?

Over the last two months, we have become aware of the strong feelings that many people have about using a washcloth (rugs, loofas) while showering. We want to assure everyone concerned that using them with our soap flakes is as easy as using them with a soap bar.

Will Eco Soapr spy on me in the bathroom?

Ok, Ok, it was not “frequently asked”, but someone was concerned about it, and we feel that this person deserves an answer. Eco Soapr will not spy on anybody. It does not have any Internet connectivity or software in it. It’s just a well-designed mechanical device. So, contain your excitement and get back to washing your hands.

How long does it take to generate enough soap flakes for one hand wash? I do not have all day to wait for it.

It takes about 4 seconds for Eco Soapr to grate enough soap for an average hand wash. It might take longer if you are Shaquille O’Neal. But if you are, we will give you a second Eco Soapr for free just to speed up the process.

What kind of battery does the device use?

We are using a built-in, non-removable, long-lasting, rechargeable battery. The will also be a wall charger/adapter that you will have to plug into the device to charge it. It should take about an hour for the battery to be recharged. The exact manufacturer and type have not been decided yet since we do not really know the quantity we will buy. You can recycle the batteries at any Staples or Best Buy.

How long will the device last on a single battery charge?

Assuming each member of a family of four washes their hands three times a day using Eco Soaps, it should last about 6 weeks. Unless of course, you are Shaquille O’Neal.

Can I turn the device on and off, so it does not use the battery and does not trigger soap grating automatically when I do not want it?

Yes, Eco Soapr has an On/Off switch. It is useful when you are going on vacation or moving the device from place to place.

Will you be manufacturing devices using a different material than plastic?

Currently, the plan is to manufacture Eco Soapr from recycled plastic, but yes, we plan to introduce an aluminum body, but again, we want to make sure that the demand is there, and we can produce a device of outstanding quality and striking design.
