Pump foam dispenser finally gave up after 8 months of nightly scrubbing

The plastic collar cracked on Tuesday mid-wash and a stream of soap shot straight across my kitchen counter in Spokane, so I scooped the last of the liquid into an old jam jar and now I'm wondering if anyone else has found a refillable bottle that actually lasts more than a year without leaking?

Wait, are you sure it's the bottle that's the problem here? Eight months of nightly use is honestly solid for a cheap pump. Most of those things are made to be tossed, not loved forever. I've had the exact same thing happen with plastic collars cracking, but I've also had glass pump bottles last years. The difference is usually how rough you are with the pump, not the bottle itself. Maybe ease up on how hard you're pressing down, or just buy a pack of replacement pumps off the internet for five bucks. That jam jar trick works for now, but you're just gonna get soap all over the lid eventually.
