Side by Side Comparison of: InterDesign vs Poster Palooza

Yes Yes! This is what you want if you want your soap to last longer. It passed my 'Lava' test. It's been over a week and the soap has never once gotten 'creamy' and begun to lose shape from holding too much water. Much better than a fancier looking one I tried first.It may not look as fancy as others, but I can't fault for this for doing what is promised and doing it very well.Whatever water accumulates in the soap dish is not very soapy. In fact, it's not soapy enough to 'steal' a handwashing out of. So that tells me soap is being saved nicely and indeed it's mostly water that's being allowed on through.I have rinsed it once in two weeks, and that wasn't even necessary.Well done. My search is over.

I have 2 of this type that I bought years ago. Still using & look as good as the day I bought them.I've looked & looked & looked for these because I needed 3 more (exact number in the package) but could not find them in any brick & mortar store.I finally thought to look on Amazon, duh!!These work great, super easy to clean & will last for many many years. Go ahead & try them, they are not expensive & you won't be disappointed.

Soap Saver FOR REAL! My shower rack is made of wires and the gaps are about 1/2" wide so the bar soap was constantly sliding around and falling through the cracks. I know, really not THAT BIG of an issue, but the same thing happening every single day was driving me crazy! I'm so glad I found these...not only does it keep the bar soap in place, there are holes on the bottom so it drains the water (my other shower has a traditional wall mounted tile soap holder where the water is able to pool under the bar soap and turn it into a giant, squishy, wet marshmallow). The draining and teeth lifting the soap away from the surface also prevents that gunky mess from building up everywhere. And if you like a little bit of texture, the teeth of the soap saver creates small grooves in the soap (not really that noticeable and it washes away pretty quickly because it's not that deep...but a fun little detail).I would definitely recommend this to all bar soap users!

There are two basic kinds of soap savers: un-drained and drained.We use un-drained soap savers (like this one) alongside sinks in order to give a wet bar of soap a nice place to get dried out.However, we use drained soap savers like the Interdesign 30103 in showers and baths where you would expect splashed water would otherwise fill up an un-drained soap saver and leave your bar of soap sitting in a puddle.It's the least thing we can do for our slippery little friends.

These are ABSOLUTELY THE BEST little soap dishes to keep your soap dry when it's not being used. I can double the life of a bar of soap by the bathroom sink or in the shower, and the soap doesn't melt into a big mess either! One of these little soap dishes more than pays for itself in 6 months, and the clear pliable plastic construction makes it easy to keep clean also. I've owned these before and can honestly say they never break and they never wear out, I just lose them in the shuffle of moving from apartment to apartment.

After researching all the fancy type of soap holders i decided on 2 major features.1) The holder should allow water to drain away from the soap.2) The holder should be small enough to fit in one of the top corners of the tub and leave room for some of my shampoos.I wasn't looking for something that hangs of my shower head, didn't want mount something into the tile or get a metal piece that will rust.This was the best blend of features. its also transparent and should match most tub, tile and soap color pallets. It is a bit pricey for just a piece of prickly, transparent rubber. But It does look nice in my tub.

This is a good useful product, the idea being to allow a soap bar to dry out between uses and not get mushy. It doesn't work as well with Dove soap which is my application as Dove clogs the drain holes but should be better with a dryer soap. It could be improved with larger drain holes and perhaps longer pins. Dove also doesn't work with the woven plastic holders. I'm still looking for something that works.

It's great that these are offered in more than just the basic oval, but tall three have a purplish tinge that is very noticeable next to white soap. I noticed the same odd hue at a big bed and bath store, and was hoping that what I saw was defective merchandise on the shelf. That said, something has changed with the manufacturing of these that makes them not 100% color-free.

These are basic soap holders that do their job as long as there's no water flow around them. For example, the ones that contain my soap and my husband's soap keep the soap relatively dry. But my son's soap is always mushy on the bottom because he apparently sprays water EVERYWHERE. Also, while the nubby bits keep the soap in place fairly well, it also seems to depend on the soap. My soap and my son's soap stay on well (his might stay on well because its so mushy), but my husband uses (dove or ivory, i can't remember), and that soap seems to fall off the dish a lot. If the rims were a little higher, this would be prevented. In all, I was able to buy these three for the same price as one similar one in the Container Store, so I am happy with the purchase.

I use these to store my variety of solid shampoos, conditioners, and soaps in the shower. I'm allergic to basically all shampoos I can find in the drugstore, so I stick to Lush products for my hair. While the products are great, they can also be a pain to store. Lush will happily sell you these little metal tins in which to store your shampoo, but they are solid and on more than one occasion I've simply melted a whole bar of shampoo by not realizing water and splashed into the tin and was dissolving the product.I purchased these for several reasons and was pleased to find they lived up to all of my expectations. First, the little nubs raise the soap (in my case, shampoo) off the surface of the bath or shower caddy, so it can't form an air-tight seal and become difficult to dislodge. Second, the drainage holes prevent my expensive shampoo bars from sitting around in a puddle of wetness and dissolving. Third, the stain-resistant surface makes these easy to clean and they don't seem to generate icky mold.I use all three of these wedged in next to each other on a tier of my shower caddy and store all of my solid, non-bottled products on it. It may be an unconventional usage, but they keep my soaps and shampoos fresher and lasting longer.

I just lay this Soap Saver on top of the ceramic soap dish and it does keep the bar of soap out of the water that gets collected on the ceramic soap. However, the Soap Saver tends to move around a lot due to the wavy design -- i.e. it doesn't have a flat bottom/top and so it doesn't properly sit flat. This Soap Saver tends to fall of the soap dish some of the time. And the bar of soap itself only stays put if it is centered correctly on the wavy curves.

This simple design works for keeping a bar of soap from getting mushy and works nicely as a dish sponge holder. For soaps, it works great on the vanity counter where the soap does not get as wet. In the shower, the shelf where my soap holder sits on gets pretty wet. When the wet soap dries, soap does get stuck on the prongs. But it does extend the life. These holders do have a strong plastic-y smell which has not gone away after a month of use.

They're ok... I find that the soap seems to slide off if not put on just right. For the price, will keep

These are nice soap savers but I'm a little disappointed that they are more of a soap mat than a soap dish. By that I mean there's no catch tray under them .... just drain holes. So you can't just put a wet bar on this and sit on the counter because soapy goo will leak out.

They are a little wider than I expected and don't quite fit on my soap dish without hanging off a lot. That being said, they are cheap and keep the soap bar from dissolving on to the soap dish so I will continue to use them!

The soap savers are a little too large for my soap dish But they are large enough to hold a full bar of soap, which is what I was searching for

This ended up being a bit misleading. The dimensions given for the product is actually the dimensions of the card stock that they come attached to. The length of each is about 3 inches. They're a bit small for a regular size bar of soap, but I can live with them. I just wanted folks to know that they're pretty small and there are larger ones out there... of which I have a couple. I thought I had ordered a two pack of the same size I already have.

These are too small to be useful, buy the larger, 'normal' sized soap savers.The larger ones are super useful, no longer will you have water/soap slime rub off on your hands when you pick up the soap. Your soap will be dry and ready for you to use.

I was not impressed with these. They’re too flimsy, and we have a hard time getting our soap to stay on them without sliding off. Wouldn’t buy again.

Thought they would stick to shower shelf, but no. Dish slides around, and then soap slides around. Better off without this.

These soap savers are so slippery the soap will NOT say on them. I make my own lye-based soap, so I like to have bars of my soap at every sink/tub/shower. I bought these because they are clear and I thought they would sort of "hold" the soap in place. Not so, you put the soap on the soap saver and it slides right off, either back into the sink or somewhere around around the soap saver. I gave them 2 stars because I do like that they are clear.

The idea behind this is to keep the soap from getting "mushy." Since there are no drainage holes, the water collects in the acrylic dish with raised "nubs" and gets to be a slippery mushy mess. We are going to drill some drainage holes and see if it works after being modified.

I legitimately bought this solely for the ability to stop the soap from being soggy, and it didn't work! I now use it upside down to cover the soap awkwardly in the shower caddy, and that'll have to do for now.Pros: Not much, it looks nice I guess, but falls off the shower caddy fairly easily and doesn't really find a way to get rid of the water that falls in that easily (other than manual dumping, but that defeats the purpose of a "soap saver".Cons: Doesn't leak (important!), make soap soggy, kind of expensive, would return, but it's a bath product and that's kind of gross.Don't buy it if you're expecting it to actually work. If you like giving money to Amazon, then that's cool, but I wouldn't buy this if I knew this is what my experience would be.

The description states it's 4 inches by 6 3/4 inches. The actual dimensions of the product are 3 inches by 2 1/4 inches. I would not have purchased this item if I had known it was so small.

i purchased the wave version. it's very difficult to keep the soap from slipping off when wet, and when I do manage to get it to stay the dish slowly starts to slide as well and ends up in the sink.

save your money, NOTHING sticks to these things, and I have 3 , Rrrr

I purchased this horrible smelling soap dish on Aug. 3rd. I set it out on the counter hoping the toxic chemical smell would dissipate. I smelled it again today Aug. 21st. Still stinks. I threw it out. No way, am I going to put our bath soap in that toxic thing made in China.

these are so small there isn't a bar of soap that these would be designed for,, I didn't think these came in different sizesshame on me for thinking all soap savers were universal sizes

The size of a hotel bar of soap; has nubs on both sides, for what purpose I don't know (unless you are going to try to attach 2 hotel bars of soap); and so light-weight that it would probably float with a birthday balloon. My opinion ... don't waste your money.

Crappy design... the plastic forms a container with the walls hight enough that the soap sits in water even sitting on top of plastic spines. I now have a much better version of this that has no side wall and also has a couple of drain holes in the middle.Nice idea... lousy execution.
