No more cute germ spreading cloth towels in there. This is the best paper towel rack made. It’s sturdy, easy to load, roll can’t pull off, simple clean lines are attractive. Very practical and I love it. Their customer service was very polite and helpful with my wondering about using it in my home 1/2 bath. This is the best!!!!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sturdy, with unexplained sheet feed *by T***O on January 10, 2015* Very Sturdy unit - I was even considering for use with large roll of aluminum foil, but the spindle only makes a partial revolution. ### ⭐ Do not recomend *by A***R on August 16, 2017* At first I had a hard time removing the holder after I lost the tool/ key provided, however I found a flat screwdriver just the right size to do the job, after a few roll replacements the mechanism broke while attempting to open it to put in a new roll, I thought it'd been because of the screwdriver so since I already had the wholes on my wall I ordered a second one, to my surprise this also broke but in half the black holder was made of fragile plastic material and hollow in the middle. This item is not worth the money. ## Frequently Bought Together - Bobrick 253 Heavy Duty Cast Aluminum Surface Mounted Roll Paper Towel Dispenser with ABS Spindle, Satin Finish, 12-1/2" Width x 4-78" Projection - Bobrick B-685 Surface-Mounted Toilet Tissue Dispenser - Better Bevel Frameless Rectangle Mirror, 20" x 28" Bathroom Wall Mirror w/Beveled Edge --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/6194759-253-heavy-duty-cast-aluminum-surface-mounted-roll-paper-towel](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/6194759-253-heavy-duty-cast-aluminum-surface-mounted-roll-paper-towel) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-04*
