Before you read this post, be sure to watch the advert first, so you get an idea of what I am talking about.
So a high-tech, sleek design no touch handwash dispenser sounds like a very grand title. Built in motion sensor, its got the lot! So with a product seemingly so high-tech as this, you would have thought Dettol would of spent abit more time on their advert.
For starters, who lets two young children play with a frog unsupervised? Touching a frog isn't a good idea at the best of times, but letting two kids who are likely to put their hands in their mouths straight after the event, thats just sheer madness!!
Oh those nasy germs, looking for any way to make us ill, and oh, whats this! The germs have formed a new plan of attack! Hide on our soap pumps! sheer genius. Just a small problem with that though. Lets say a person with dirty hands touches a soap pump, then washes their hands. They have clean hands, but the dirt/germs have stuck to the pump. The next person comes along to wash their hands, so they have to touch the dreaded soap pump of doom. Person B has both their germs and person A's germs on their hands. But person B washes their hands straight away, so no matter how many people touch the soap pump, as long as you wash your hands straight after, (assuming you dont lick your fingers) then you can't be infected by the nasty germs. And that's a FACT. Humans-1 Germs-0
So you see the need of a no touch handwash system is simply not there. Unlucky Dettol, better luck next time selling us a product we actually need. Looks good though.
