As detailed in my column this past week, I am in the process of collecting information for an article on amenity dispensers. My goal is to chat with as many vendors as possible and also get some input from those actually using the products. What have I learned so far? First of all, there is a lot of competition among vendors and not agreement by any means as far as what is the best dispenser for your property. As with anything else, you need to shop around and test, test, test. Do you purchase a dispenser that allows the guest to see the level of product remaining? Or, is a solid (opaque) exterior a more favorable option? What do you think? One of the leading vendors that has been around for years sells more translucent dispensers than opaque ones yet another vendor who has also been selling dispensers for almost as many years prefers opaque ones. (Translucent dispensers need to be filled more often to give the guest the impression that nobody else has used the dispenser.)
