How does it work?

As its name suggests, this Kitchen Dish Soap Dispenser with Sponge Holder has a 2-in-1 design that helps reduce soap waste. It has an easy-to-fill 350 mL basin, an area for excess water and a slatted tray to hold the sponge.

To use, simply push down on the tray, and the sponge will absorb the soap from the dispenser caddy. The bottom of the tray has a leak-proof design that's easy to clean when full.
