There is brown gunk coming out of my brand new nice soap dispensers. What is it, how do I clean it out...?

Question

and how do I keep it from happening?

I bought two nice soap dispensers from Bed Bath & Beyond. When I pump the soap out, brown chunks come out as well. Is it rust? What is it? It looks like a build up of some sort in the spout. How do I keep this from happening? How do I clean it out?

Answer 1

Not sure what it is.  I recommend taking off the pump and filling the kitchen sink with water.  Put the end of the pump (the straw thing) in the water and keep pumping until the brown gunk doesn't come out anymore.  If it continues I'd return it and try different ones.  I don't think the dispensers should do that.

Answer 2

sounds to me as if the may have been used proir to you getting them and something has built up into the pump deal , i would run some hot water in the sink and keep pumping till all the brown stopped coming out , or it may be the soap  your using , but if it continues take them back .... because something is wrong with them.... I totally agree with the answer above me
