Fun Fact: Arrow-Shaped Leaves with a Purpose

The Dragon’s Breath Alocasia’s striking arrow-shaped leaves are more than just ornamental. In its native tropical rainforest habitat, these slender leaves channel rainwater directly to the plant’s roots, ensuring it captures essential moisture. This unique adaptation is a testament to the plant’s ability to thrive in high-humidity environments, making it an ideal candidate for indoor gardeners looking to recreate a tropical oasis.

Pretty gold tone color and works well
Color: Gold
This is great for lazy people like myself. Just pull back the grabber hand and drop the paper towels in, no unscrewing anything or fiddling around, I only want to spend one second installing my paper towels and this lets me do that. The gold tone works well with my decor, it has a very finely brushed gold tone metal finish trending into brass color tones that looks better in person than in the listing. Overall it looks very high end. The bottom is very heavily weighted, paper towels slip right on, and removing a towel with one hand is a snap. The grabber hand keeps the towels in place. On the bottom are 4 very effective grabby strips that keep the unit from sliding. The whole unit weighs 3 pounds but somehow it seems like it's a lot more. Checking over the listing, it looks accurate other than some of the photos make it look a little less golden than it really is. This thing is so nice. I was going to use this at work but it might be too nice looking for an industrial environment so I'll probably just use it at home instead. The downsides on this are there were a few super tiny scratches that you'd really have to squint to see. You probably would not notice but still not ideal. The other obvious issue is these are currently priced at $50. Looking around at other options, I don't see many with all the features of this unit including upscaled finish, smoothly operating grabby hand, and heavily weighted bottom but certainly there are many other towel holder options that get good reviews for less money so I would not say this unit is the best economic bang for the buck. However if you really don't care about an extra $20 or you would really like an upscale nice brushed gold/brass finish, then it might be well worth it for you because this does work really well and I am very much enjoying it.

Solid Investment
Color: Stainless Steel, Color: Stainless Steel
At first I thought this was a little expensive for a paper towel holder, but after using it for a few days, I completely understood the price. It’s very sturdy and honestly delightfully functional in a way that basic holders just aren’t. The spring-loaded arm works really well and actually allows easy one-handed tearing without the whole thing tipping or unraveling. A few things I liked: Weighted base keeps it firmly in place Non-slip bottom works well on countertops Spring arm holds the roll securely and makes tearing easier Stainless steel finish looks clean and modern Feels much sturdier and better made than cheaper versions A couple minor things: The arm is a little stiff at first, but loosened up slightly with use Larger/thicker rolls can fit tightly until some paper is used Overall, I think it’s a really good value for the money and performs exactly as advertised. One of those kitchen items that seems simple, but once you use a better-designed version, you definitely notice the difference.

This is the one!! The only paper towel holder I will ever have in my home.
Color: Stainless Steel, Color: Stainless Steel
I don’t usually get this excited about a paper towel holder... but THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR!!!! Seriously. I’ve gone through so many flimsy, annoying holders that slide around, lift up, scrape the counter, or make that awful squeaking noise when you try to tear a sheet, and this one fixes every single one of those problems. The weighted base is EVERYTHING. It’s heavy enough that it doesn’t move at all when you pull a paper towel. No sliding. No tipping. No lifting. It just stays put like it’s supposed to. And the non-slip bottom means it doesn’t scratch or drag across your counter, which is such a huge plus. The spring-loaded arm is genius. You can actually tear a paper towel one-handed without fighting the roll or having it unravel everywhere. It keeps just enough tension so you get a clean tear every time. The design is sleek and practical. The stainless steel finish looks clean and modern, and it fits nicely with any kitchen style. It’s simple, but in a way that feels very intentional and well thought out. I’m not exaggerating when I say this is the only paper towel holder I will ever buy from now on. I already want to get more for other areas of the house and this is the only kind of paper towel holder I will ever buy for my family and friends. Nothing comes close to how good this one works. If you’ve ever been annoyed by your paper towel holder, then look no further than this!! It solves all the little everyday frustrations and makes something simple actually work the way it should. Conclusion: Love it, love it, LOVE IT!! It is worth every penny!!! 🙌 Yes, it's a tad expensive for a towel holder, but it is THE BEST and absolutely worth it!!

It’s great for the bathroom.

It’s great. I use it in all my bathrooms. It’s easy to change the paper. It fits on the tank and dresses it up.

Good Product, Fair Price
Color: Gold-aa
I bought this for my guest bathroom where I have some other brass items and it fits right in. Easy assembly with the supplied Allen wrench and bolt, and it comes with a cover for the bolt hole which perfectly matches the base padding material so the assembly point becomes invisible. It doesn’t have a ‘towel unroll preventer’ but I knew that when I evaluated the reasonable sale price and decided that wasn’t important for the intended use. The base is heavy and the assembled item seems very sturdy. I found it weird that this towel holder came with a plastic box containing a fork and a spoon as a ‘gift’ but this will go in my car camping cookware bag. I don’t know how the brass finish will hold up over time but for now I’m very pleased.
