I bought one of these years ago for 5 dollars... but this replaced it and works well
Comments about Stacks and Stacks Paper Towel Holder - Wall Mount or Under Cabinet:
This paper towel roll would be a lot smarter if it could be mounted in either direction-- that is, with the roll put on from the right side or the left side. Some of the other designs allow this and there is no reason a better design isn't possible.
A better design would allow the customer more mounting options.

Comments about Stacks and Stacks Paper Towel Holder - Wall Mount or Under Cabinet:
This is a great paper towel holder overall, and is certainly a good value. This is the second of this exact model of paper towel holder that I have owned, and I bought this as a replacement for the first one. I had the first one for about eight years, and it finally broke, requiring replacement. The thing I like about this specific towel holder is the design (wall or under cabinet mounting is at your option) which allows the roll to be slipped onto the central retaining spindle without requiring support at both ends, making for a secure towel holder that will not allow the roll of towels to fly out of the holder which is common in some holders which retain the towel roll by pressure on opposite ends of the roll. Another nice feature of this holder is the slightly upturned end of the roll retaining bar to prevent the roll from slipping off the rod when towels are aggressively pulled off the roll, especially with one handed operation. Overall this has been a great paper towel holder.I gave this holder four stars for one reason only, which is that being exclusively plastic it is vulnerable to fatigue cracking of the mounting cylinder, which requires replacement of the unit. This is exactly what finished off my old unit (it cracked at the attachment flange area and was not repairable.) Nonetheless, for a unit of this cost, I am very pleased with the overall performance, appearance, and value of this paper towel holder and would recommend it without reservation.
