Paper Towel Holder

This is a wind proof paper towel holder. We bought it online at www.stacksandstacks.com and brought it with us when we picked up our trailer.
Marty (the production manager) installed it for us while we were talking with Cary.



I think this is maybe the best one out there, but unfortunately, I can't seem to find it online anymore. If anybody else can find it please post a link.

 

Does it have a brand name or model number?

 

Great idea - I never thought to go look at it...

AMCO Houseworks 8344

I tracked down the company and have emailed them to see if the product is still available. I'll post here if I find anything.

 

Aha - I found one store that is still selling them (heavily discounted)

Paper Towel Holder

Doesn't say how many they have left...

 

Hey Ken, that's the same one I found last week at Ross. It works great, and doesn't unwind by itself. I was going to recommend it, but you beat me to it!!! Very nice!

 

It's a big improvement over the velcro strap we had to use on our old one. We only wish we could have installed it on the second rib of the hatch, but there just wasn't enough clearance when we closed the hatch. It was a close call though. It still looks good.

 

I hope this picture helps. I am technologically challenged!!

Ken - those are speakers.

Jim - if you add an opening bracket "[" before the "img]" your picture will show up

 

Ken,
Jim is a talented wood worker, but no, he did not make the rockers. He built our fantastic front porch though, and most of our house.
I may have to retract my gloating about our paper towel holder. The roll is on a ratchet, and won't turn unless pulled. BUT, as we discovered today, if it is windy, the towels kind of loosen in the breeze, and eventually unwind that way. Therefore, we will have to award Evan, "Best PT Holder"!!

 

It's still for sale for only about $5 - see the link above...

 

I tried ordering one from The Great Indoors, but it said they were not available & there was no date of when they might be available again. However, I did find them on theoverstockedkitchen.com for $14 + $3 for shipping & ordered one. It was cheaper than on another site, Home Village, that had them and wanted $9.95 + $15 for shipping.

 

Here is another idea that works well to keep paper towels from unrolling from a mounted paper towel holder - a Teardrop Paper Towel Weight!

I know of several teardroppers, including Camp-Inn owners, who have one of these & really like them. They are also pretty sharp looking.

These are being made & sold by a gentleman from the T&TTT forum for $13.95, including shipping.

It is made with a 3/8" thick chunk of Jatoba (Brazillian Cherry) and inlayed it with Hard Maple & has a clear lacquer finish.

Thanks for the link Betsey! Looks like a practical and cool looking solution for our unraveling paper towels!!
