I love this paper towel holder, I have bought several different paper towel holders and every time I went to tare a towel it would either rip off funny or not rip off at all. This one tares each piece perfectly. I liked this one so much I purchased an additional on for our second home which we stay during the summer. If you want a paper towel holder not just for style but a hassle free paper tare this one is a great choice.
