I love simple human products and will continue to purchase them. I bought this particular one in 2016, made multiple moves with it, and it finally broke. Im not even mad about it.

5.0 out of 5 stars It’s so good I bought it twice
Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2021
Build quality of this paper towel holder is fantastic. Has a wonderful tension arm that allows you to rip the paper towel to your desired length. It’s so good and works perfectly that I have purchased two of them. One was purchased a few years ago. The other one was purchased just recently. My neighbor loved it so much I gave it to her. Definitely worth the price if you don’t have a wall-mounted dispenser. Works great on the porch and in the backyard eating at the picnic table. Easy cleanup if it gets dirty because it’s made of stainless steel. All I do is use some stainless steel polish and it looks brand new. Excellent for a housewarming gift or a Wedding gift definitely a kitchen essential.
