San Jamar Medium Pull-Type Cup Dispenser 4-10 Oz. Cups with Flip Cap for Restaurants, Dining Halls, and Fast Food Plastic, 16 Inches, White

I purchased this almost 2 years ago to the day, and I thought it was high time I reviewed it. In a word? Outstanding. It's made of durable plastic and, if the need arises, simply wipes clean quickly and easily. It holds at least 50 of the 5-oz Dixie-type cups and I would imagine even more of the 3-oz type. The hinged, flip-open lid makes it super simple to refill. Open, drop in cups, close, done. The mounting hardware it comes with is very quick and easy to install, and then the whole unit sort of slides onto the metal wall "hook". This makes it very easy to remove the whole unit from the wall for cleaning, etc. should you want to. The convenience of having these cups nearby can not be overstated. We distill our own drinking water and keep a large dispenser of it in the fridge at all times. When the grandkids visit they love to grab a cup from the dispenser and enjoy a drink of fresh, cold water. We go through a lot of cups, yes, but Amazon sells them in bulk at such a great price that I only need to stock up once a year or so. This dispenser has been used for the past two years by countless adults and 4 very active (and thirsty!) little people -- and it is as new-looking and well-performing as the day I bought it. I'm considering adding these to the bathrooms in the very near future. All this and the price is under $8?! This is an amazing purchase any way I look at it. Great price, great product. One of my all-time favorite purchases. I give it my highest recommendation.

I started looking at random brands on Amazon to try to find a cone cup dispenser. I brought this one because of the price. And I am glad I did. It wasn’t poor in quality and it’s functional. It doesn’t take up a lot of space. I like it a lot

I mounted this on a wood frame that holds a small refrigerator in my barn. I like this cup dispenser as cups are loaded from the top lid, keeping everything inside sterile and clean. Seems to dispense one at a time for a quick drink out of the ice box. Screws come with the quick-dismount style holder and were easy to install (used a torpedo level to mount) a sturdy slide down holder interacts with the holder for quick dismount to reload cups. I've only used 3 oz cups so far. Would purchase again.

I spent a lot of time reading reviews of other cup dispensers when this one seemed to only dispense multiples. Finally I saw one review that indicated you should rotate the cup as you pull it from the dispenser. While it is a bit less handy, and every once in a while you get more than one cup, it works much better that way on this cup dispenser. Most of the time I manage to only get one cup at a time. I believe after a while it will become second nature for me to extricate just one cup by gradually twisting the bottom of the cup as I pull. I have updated my rating to four stars . I do think that loosening the stack of cups before you drop them into the tube also helps. This will get mounted on the wall and provide clean cups for use during tooth brushing or when you need a sip of water. In these days of COVID getting a clean cup each time is worth the extra bit of paper waste. This is a pretty good cup dispenser and does work with 5 oz. cups. Just in case an extra cup should fall as you twist and pull a cup from the bottom, I recommend mounting it above a countertop or shelf to catch a possible loose extra cup.

I have two of these and I love them. They are easy to install and slide off and on to put in cup refills. The lid is easy to open and close. I saw some reviews about pulling down two cups at a time and most all of them do that. I found a couple of tricks that make all the difference with that. First tip is to buy cups that do not have a wax coating or are slick on the outside. Amazon sells cups that are not coated. Also when you pull down on this particular model, pull as far on the bottom as you can. I use two fingers and pull from the bottom rim. Works everytime.

I was looking for a way to store my bath bombs near the tub, but where they won't get water on them. This was a great solution. I got the narrower one, fitting 3 oz cups, and it perfectly holds my bath bombs. It came with two screws and the bracket you mount on the wall. The bracket that's on the unit was already attached to it, and it slides into the one you mount on the wall. I wish the unit came in a clear, not blue, tone, but I'm glad to find one that is mostly transparent and lets me keep easy visual track on when it's time to refill. The only weird thing about the unit is you would expect the lid to be aligned with the bracket it hangs from, so that it would face outward. But, it's skewed, and faces the side.

In general, the dispenser is good. There is something that could be better though. The pins that hold the cups appear to not be so strong to separate the cups when being pulled. Sometimes it leads to wasted cups because people end up pulling 2-3 extra cups.

We have this for a couple months, so far it works well.
