Review: simplehuman Wall Mount Paper Towel Holder

simplehuman sent us a some of their products to review and we're starting off with the simplehuman wall mount paper towel holder.

Since we constantly test coffee makers and other kitchen gadgets, we need every inch of counter space we can find. Our current paper towel holder doesn't hold the paper towel roll securely, and we're always stuck with a large amount of towel unrolled on the holder. Also, current paper towel holder location next to the stove isn't ideal. Our biggest complaint? We have to hold our current paper towel holder with two hands to dispense towels. Hey - who has 2 free hands while cooking?

Thanks to the simplehuman wall mount paper towel holder we've managed to get back the much desired side of the stove countertop space and the simplehuman wall mount paper towel holder is designed to use with one hand. We also love the way it looks versus our old wooden paper towel holder.

You can mount the simplehuman wall mount paper towel holder on a wall or under a kitchen cabinet. We chose to mount the paper towel holder on the side of our fridge nook right over our kitchen garbage can. Now we've freed up the counter space and also made it easier to throw away the used paper towels.

Our only complaint is that since the ring spring holds the paper towel holder securely in place so it won't unravel, it also makes it harder to dispense towels at the end of the paper towel roll.
