Elkay's Smartwell Touchless Countertop Beverage Dispenser dispenses drinks in a safe and eco-friendly way, and hands-free dispensing is possible thanks to compatibility with mobile devices. The hands-free hydrating solution is designed to fit under standard kitchenette cabinets, so that it does not take up valuable floor space. With touchless operations, people can create custom beverages and view nutritional information without having to use the unit itself. Using the drink dispenser is as simple as downloading the app, scanning the QR code and then making the desired selections.
