Good enough
This item does the job but if you place wet items into the pocket, it will leak that water out the bottom, leaving your counter top wet. Otherwise, it works fine.

Very good dispenser
This soap dispenser was a little bigger than expected, but I still like it. Sturdy and holds a lot of dish liquid and lots of room for sponges and other items.

Sink utensils container
Works great, only thing is, we have a scrub sponge with the dish soap handle. It has to be placed in the front corner or it drips into the container.
