One day you are young, the next you are excited for a new paper towel dispenser
The cup and snack thing would be great for wheelchair users. Street food is so difficult to eat while moving. Could stick this in my cup holder, eat a bit and keep moving easily! Brilliant.
Or Rollerator users like me.
That drink cup with a snack tray is a common fixture in some Asian countries movie theaters. The only difference is that the movie theater version is disposable.
Dude I really think you should do a little more research on the stuff that you review like the the Snack & drink cup at least 80% of people out there know that the lil permanent ring at the end of the straw isn't a stop for the rubber tube that slips on to the staw! It's meant to go down into the bottom of the cup so the straw won't accidentally pull out and make a mess and or possibly lose it. In short it is a "straw stop". I to live here in Sin city and have watched many of your reviews and I have noticed that you are wrong or just don't know what some things are for, that can't be that hard to know what you are reviewing. Just do some research on the products first then tell us about it that way people won't be mislead on whatever you're reviewing just saying. Now that's all I have to say about that. ✌🏻😎
@@markhorbach3536 snowflake ❄️
My husband is also in a power wheelchair, though he doesn't have a cup holder. I can see this possibly being useful though.
Only problem is I USUALLY HAVE AA not the AAA😅😂
Oh, that's when you just whittle them down to AAA size! 😂
Please note: this comment is facetious. Do not try to whittle batteries of any kind for any reason.
I was going to comment that it would be more impressed If they could make a AA fit into a AAA. 😂
Y'all need a Battery Daddy lol. Seriously, I tell everyone to get one. It's got a battery tester and I always have batteries now, no more searching the house or finding used ones in the junk drawer. Tell people jokingly it changed my life 😜
@bradasstv
4.8 stars with 75k reviews. Obviously, people love it. Nothing to be ashamed of haha
interesting, it’s always the opposite at my house. i usually have plenty AAA and only one or none of the AA
$70.00 for a paper towel holder???😳Nope!!
Double nope
@@christianterrill3503 The state I live in the taxes would bring it close to $100.00!🤯
Right? I'll stick with my $5 paper towel holder and my $1 plastic spray bottle.
it's kinda nice though...
@@gerald8573 Yes it is.
the Snack Cup would be PERFECT to sell at Festivals and Fairs!
That drink cup with a snack tray is a common fixture in some Asian countries movie theaters. The only difference is that the movie theater version is disposable.
@@snowflakehunter that makes perfect sense! if it were mostly biodegradable waxed-paper-cup-material it'd be a really convenient solution for things like that and anyplace where you'd want to walk-n-eat, like a fair!
For the condiments for your snack cup, use the condiment holder that goes on your car vents. I have them and love them!
If you're using a drink/snack cup I'm gonna go ahead and say you're OK with some Crumbs in your drink!😂
that's what I thought, plus if your drink is cold, it's gonna get your food cold.
9:16 Inching ever closer to societal adoption of Pip-Boys.
First thing I thought of when I saw it.
I actually thought Yugioh duel disc first, but your idea is better!
@@devinlorenz5923do they still make dual disks? Had a oricalcous disk as a kid
I thought of the "predator" Wrist Gauntlet, maybe if he add a live wallpaper of red Numerics they use
Simple Human is SUCH an expensive brand, and now I'm pissed because I want one of those!!!
Same here. And the other colors are even $10 more. Similar ones for $20 - $25, though.
Wait for it. If a product is popular enough you can bet somebody somewhere *ahem* will make a cheaper version of it.
Simple Human makes really good products, in general. Are there some flops? Sure... but typically they are good.
Unfortunately, they are also out of my budget.
I will never forgive my (now ex) husband for intentionally leaving behind the trash can that hung inside the cabinet door, and the bag saver/dispenser when we moved.
I explained how expensive they were... He just thought they were easily replaceable.
Unfortunately he thought that often, and I learned to do my own seperate walk-through ANY time we moved.
Funny how all of "his stuff" was always 100% accounted for. 🫤
Anyway... yeah... now I want one of these. 😂
@@Zardox2 oh that sucks!!!
We’ve got a simple human garbage bin. It’s been flawless for 10 years, and I can now buy off brand bags. It’s was worth it.
The battery converter maybe alright for a short time but I'd be worried about over heating and possible fire hazard,
Come to think of it, I have seen warnings of not mixing batteries, so would this AAA converted to AA be considered as mixing?
@@catw6998That’s referring to mixing Lithium and Alkaline batteries, the only difference between AA, AAA, C, D, and whatever other size you’re likely to have is purely capacity.
@@catw6998 I'm not sure on the AA or AAA but I vape and use lithium batteries and you have to be careful of how many amps are produced by the device your using. Almost on accidents are caused by carelessness.
It sounds a little sketchy in theory but I promise I’m pretty sure it’s basically just as safe. You’re not really doing much than slightly increasing the transmission length. The internals would be where most the issues come from. They’re all the correct voltage and whatnot
AA's & AAA's are NOT Lithium, they can't catch fire🔥 LoL
I'm on the fence about the paper towel holder. There is always a bottle of spray cleaner on my counter right next to the paper towel holder, for the obvious reason, so having that integrated would make things so much nicer looking. But I did notice how you had to pull it out from under the cabinet to get the spray bottle out, and that's inconvenient, plus the price point IMO is about double what it should be. Still, I like the aesthetic.
Agreed, but $70.00+tax in state would bring it close to $100.00!!
Having a newborn, I’ve gotten pretty good at ripping a sheet off of the kitchen roll without even having a holder 😂
Perfected that before I was even 10, that was 30 years ago.
The wrist phone holder looks like it puts your phone in the perfect place to accidentally swing your arm into or scrape across something and destroy your phone or scratch the screen. The expensive paper towel holder is for people with more dollars than sense.
Who asked?
@@vinnyvidivici Vinny did, obviously.
I thought the phone holder would probably work better if the phone was on the inside of the wrist
I agree, it's dangerous for phones
Name says it all, the towel holder truly is for 'Simple Humans'. As for the phone gadget, I love the idea and it should probably come with a complimentary wrist weight / ear bud storage bag for the other arm, but that positioning, yikes! It's ideal I guess for a futuristic spacesuit control panel; but in space there's not so many lampposts, walls, cars & such to knock into and scrape the bejeezus out of your device.
The other observations I would have about the Phone Wristband are. 1. Having your phone out in direct sunlight like that is probably going to make it overheat at some point. 2. You walk around some cities and that phone is being stolen off your wrist in 30 seconds.
I was thinking it might be more preferable to wear it on the inside of your wrist
I never thought I would pay that much either but first I got the automatic trash can, loved it then the soap dispensers. then I ended with the paper towel dispenser, the products are expensive but really well made, the quality is right up their.
If the strap is long enough you can probably put it around your leg
I think it would be good for people who use a phone to scan stuff for work.
Strap it to your wrist instead of having to hold your phone
@@ralphedds1 up their what?
For that wristband, you just need a pip-boy theme for your phone and you are set.
I thought the exact same thing.
Already got the theme.. just need the wrist strap.. 😅
When the wristband offers some new feature the phone doesn't I'll buy one.... like say a Geiger counter
Great Halloween Costume accessory idea!!!
Fallout Hyppe!
Surely if you hadn't put the McD's cup inside the other cup, the straw would've gone down further to prevent crumbs getting through, right? I would expect the straw to be the exact right length to reach the bottom and the little ring thing to fit snug in the bottom of the snack bowl portion. If not, that's horrible design.
That whole review of the cup was pretty incompetent actually... Not saying I would use that cup myself but I could see where he was wrong...
I would think that the ring should be on the underside of the snack cup. That way you can take off the snack cup with the straw, and it would stop crumbs.
IMO the straw was upside down.
I remember buying battery adapters years ago. Have no idea where they are now though. $70 for a paper towel holder with a spray thingy is too rich for my blood. Plus, they also get to sell you those tablets, so you need to keep buying them. It's a really nice paper towel holder though. That combo drink and snack holder, I can see it being useful for say, a sports event or some sort of outdoor event.
I was thinking the same as you about the snack/drink holder. It would be very handy at a festival where queues are always long so you buy your food and drink at the same time. You get to walk around the festival site eating and drinking instead of having to find somewhere to sit out of the way of people.
Yea simplehuman make nice products theyre just way overpriced. They sell the sensor activated trashcans for like 150 bucks. I got one very similar for 55 bucks and it works just as good. I only know because i own both lol.
Tbf you probably don't have to keep buying tablets from them. You could just refill with your usual cleaning liquid (the holder itself is still way too expensive though)
That's a pretty good assessment! I think if the paper towel holder were maybe HALF that price, they'd sell well. At $70? Forget it!
For teenagers who eat while playing video games.
For the straw the notch is a trick to keep the straw from coming out. In this case I think it's a baseline for where to put the flexible part of the straw.
I have some of those battery converters. Mine convert AA into C size batteries. I find that C and D are much less common to keep around the house, so the plastic AA to C converters have come in quite handy.
Have you noticed a decrease in runtime when using converted AAs instead of the original Cs and Ds?
@@PongoXBongo No noticeable difference yet. Although I'm sure I might notice if it were an item I used fairly regularly.
probably end up wasting a lot less battery mass since infrequent devices would have batteries die over time without usage anyway. Good idea!
I have been using the AA to C converters for years, and way cheaper than purchasing C's. Upon research, found out that AA's are the same as C's. Work great for me!
@@PongoXBongo they store a significant amount less, it’s like 1/4 so not particularly viable outside of a pinch IMO. Usually they use c’s because they’re power hungry. I guess really depends on how many AA’s they put in the C converter. Maybe it’s viable
first, I think the straw goes in first then the top.
second, it's time to Duel!!!
Rarely have I ever laughed as hard as I have when I was watching the cup thing. 😂😂 “idk what I’m gonna do with my hand but it’s free!” “How am I gonna get that small out of there? It just wedged right into place!” 😂😂😂😂😂 dude I was laughing so hard watching this.
Poor Bailey! Her tail was wagging when you were in the kitchen trying out the P.T. dispenser. SHE thought you might be fixing some fabulous treats for the two of you to share! ❤😂. Woof!
The hole in the hamburger had me dying 😂
I’ve been using a simple human soap dispenser for dish soap next to our kitchen sink for years and love it. It’s the battery powered one and when it finally dies I’ll replace it with the rechargeable version. I also have their rechargeable vanity mirror which is great. Their products are crazy expensive but seem to be designed very well.
I could see the phone holder being useful for using navigation/ trail guides while biking. I've always worried that the handlebar mounted holders won't hold a phone if the terrain gets too rough.
Also, could you review the battery adapters that let you turn a battery operated device into a wall powered device? I had a double A adaptor that I used for a battery operated timer and have wondered if there was more applications/ different sizes that made sense to get. Or maybe rechargeable batteries of some sort?
More things that you have saved me money on.
That medium fry is small is hell. I haven't bought fast food in a decade and now I know why.
To get the small cup out you'd have to be sure you had your handy-dandy "Leatherman" style multitool and use the pliers part...
I feel the color changing is not attractive on the cup, not that holding that cup is attractive anyways lol.
I thought the inner cup had leaked for a second.
There's precious little to like about that thing.
those battery adapters have been around since at least the 80s. Posibly convenient but I have the opposite problem - always have tons of AA but rarely any AAA
I think the straw might work better if it came up from the bottom of the container to block those crumbs.
I think he had it in wrong also!
The straw was blocked by the Mcdonald cup wedged in. If he was using it correctly like the second time and pouring his drink in the straw would fit correctly and block the hole.
That paper towel dispenser is so high tech man, I could whip out that cleaner grab a paper towel and clean off my bowling ball instantly while I'm drunk
Hey, that wrist phone holder could be handy for cutting grass. I have a riding mower and often want to have easy access to my phone. Could be a use for it 🤷♂️😁👍
We’re a little miffed as a family. We own THREE simple human “first gen” paper towel holders, where the center doesn’t remove- looks identical, but doesn’t come out! Also, one of ours hit the floor (kids, man!) and the base shattered. (Turns out it’s cement). They were not very friendly about a warranty claim, but gave us a one-time courtesy.
FINALLY! That phone wristband makes it possible for us to finally have a wrist computer like in the movies and games. Biggest phone invention ever 😂.
Only it had some kind of sturdy snapp off and on.
I was rather shocked the day I'd found out that a 6-volt battery is just a box filled with AAs!!😂😂😂
It's sorcery & shocked me when I found out a few years ago. I don't know if I can trust anything anymore...😊
NO. What a scam!
I've been watching since around the Atomic Beam lantern review, Loved watching your progression and growth through the years! Keep up the awesome reviews!
I remember you testing a car-condiment holder that attached to the air vents in the dash
The nice thing about the battery converters is that they should eliminate battery leaks in products you don't use or check very often. Perhaps well worth the cost.
Just as a PSA:
While AAA batteries are 1.5 volt cells like AA batteries, they have much less capacity (mah) than a AA does.
If you use the conversion sleeves do not expect equivalent battery life. If you use them in a AA device that eats batteries, expect it to eat them much faster.
I suspect you’re supposed to position the non floppy part of the straw in the cup before you put on the snack tray. That might solve the “food falling thru the hole” problem.
I needed some AA's and only had triple A's so I took aluminum foil and finished it up with that until I went to the store the next day. Those battery cases would definitely come in handy in a crunch. The phone band would be a good idea but, if it made your wrist sweat then it would not be for me. I liked the paper towel holder , but I'm not spending that much.
"I am eating and drinking with one hand" immediately uses the other hand to eat. xD
I think the best unmentioned feature of that paper towel holder is the fact it will keep the towels from unraveling when using it outdoors on picnics or cleaning car windows, etc.
That phone holder would work better with the phone on the inside of your arm
Came here to say the same thing. Makes a lot more sense to me.
Finally a normal video today. Since I came home from work I've been getting insane recommendations.
Like a African pastor who can't say, "In the Beginning".😭
I couldn't help but Laugh hard.😂
Link please. I need absurd in my life right now.
My thoughts are with a drink in the bottom your food will get cold from the ice underneath the food.
Heat rises, cold sinks, and there's enough of an air gap in between that I doubt the food would get cold any faster than it would just on its own. There are also plenty of other things you could put there that wouldn't matter so much, like nuts, pretzels, potato chips, etc.
That drink cup with a snack tray is a common fixture in some Asian countries movie theaters. The only difference is that the movie theater version is disposable. It is made for snacks and a drink not for things that are necessarily hot.
Those AAA to AA converters are popular in the gaming mouse community. They like to use lithium AAA batteries in that adapter for a light AA power source.
You can save quite a few grams doing this! And mice don't have really high power consumption.
There was not enough Bailey in this video. More Bailey please!🤗
I have basically that same phone holder wrist band and I use it religiously for when I go on my runs. I love it, and I use it with my wired headphones. It's perfect for when you're exercising. It's not meant to be an everywhere every day use object. It has a specific purpose, and I find it works excellently for that purpose.
An absolute NO to the drink/snack thing! People keep trying to sell items they think we need - but we don’t!!!
Those AAA to AA converters are used mainly in Gaming wireless mice because they are lighter than normal AA Batteries
The phone wristband reminds me of a fallout pip boy. That has costume possibilities!
I think the wrist strap for your phone is unnecessary when you're walking and don't have your hands full.
On a bike, it seems really helpful. And because your hands are full, you don't have much choice but to put it away. Also, the weight doesn't matter because your hands are on the handlebars.
When you put the cup in the cup and realized there was no way to get it out, it made my day.
I'm totally appreciating your sound effects for the floppy part of the straw!😂
Just a guess, but I think the flexible part of the straw goes in the cup and where the two parts meet, that will squeeze into the hole and block it.
If you look in the earlier parts, if no cup is inserted, there is enough depth for the straw length.
I had 2 of those paper towel holders. Arms broke on both after a few months. I usually use Costco rolls of towels so that’s not the problem. Great reviews as always James and , Let’s go Oilers !😂
The wrist phone holders is extremely common amongst streamers because they have chat on it at all times while streaming IRL. Rave girls who wear no clothing also use it to carry their phone I've seen. Makes it hard to lose your phone or get it stolen.
I've had a couple of phone holders very similar to the phone wristband, though I've never used them on my wrist. I put the phone on my upper arm while I'm running. The thing I really like about this style of phone holder is that it works with any phone, with or without a case. Even if you have two different phones, you can just use the same holder. It also doesn't cover the screen so there aren't any issues using the phone while it's in the holder. I'm on my second one now after using the first one for over 4 years before it finally broke. I agree that it feels like you're about to tear apart the rubber, but it holds up a lot better than you think it will. There are several Amazon listings for the same type of product and I can't guarantee that they're all the same quality, but they do seem to be basically identical.
your videos are great, thanks for consistently reviewing such a wide variety of interesting products. i laughed out loud at your shock when your drink got stuck in the snack cup. i totally loved that paper towel dispenser!! would really be useful. id definitely get it IF i could afford it.
I have a SimpleHuman towel dispenser on my kitchen wall and love it. Doesn't have the spray bottle which is kind of cool, so may have to pick one of those up as well.
I have the paper towel dispenser. Minus the pump spray. Bought it at Costco about 5 years ago for about $30. The compression arm hasn't been present for a few years now and the base started to rust.
If it had been built to a higher quality I could definitely recommend it.
I have those AAA adapters and my biggest problem is that they are not quite the right shape so depending upon what you're using them in they won't fit.
I still think they're worth acquiring because in the cases where you can use them it's nice to have them if you need them. Just remember AAA batteries have less energy so they will die quicker.
Like I would only ever use them for example in an Xbox One controller where the batteries are just sitting there pretty much but I wouldn't stick them inside the holder of an Xbox 360 controller.
Also every once in a while the pointy bit is too long on the end at least of the ones I have.
The ridge on the straw in the drink/snack cup should be on the bottom (in the drink, not sticking out of the top). The idea is to keep the straw from being pulled out. Slide the silicone part of the straw down to to seal the gap, that way no crumbs will end up in the drink.
I have a problem with the second product, who wants their salty food sitting above their beverage just so the salt can fall into their beverage?
And hot food over a cold drink might not be that great unless you eat fast.
Does Gatorade taste alright to you? Cuz Gatorade has like 10x as much salt as could reasonably fall into a drink by accident. Maybe if they were super over salted fries, it’s mostly the fact it takes a lot of salt to start tasting it in a drink
Those absolute monsters who eat sweet and salty things at the same time might like it. LOL
That wristband is perfect for strapping your phone to stuff to make videos.
Between you and project farm we can find reviews of almost everything. 👏 awesome
It changes according to drink temperature.
You supposed to pour drink from restaurant drink cup into blue cup..
I have one of these, but it changes color.
Next time watch the video before commenting.
You out walking with the phone on your wrist gave me old 90s tech vibes.
Man, you walking around the neighborhood brings back memories. I used to live in Bullhead AZ and would drive through Henderson on my way to do shopping. All the houses and neighborhoods look the same there. Really cool to see as you come over the mountain.
Earliest I've ever been to one of your videos man. I've had the Eneloop batteries and the adapters (D cell adapters and the AA adapters as well) for the last 6 years now. I always recommend those.
That wrist strap for your phone is something I wish I could give to everyone who tells me "I don't need a watch, I have a phone." The difference is, I don't have to turn my watch "on".
Love the content, as always. Keep up the great work!
In fairness, generally when people say that it's more along the lines of "why buy a second product just to tell time, when you're probably always carrying your phone anyhow with a built in clock". Checking your wrist watch is only marginally quicker than getting your phone out of your pocket, and it is a second thing to carry around/put on every day.
I say this who specifically got a nice watch several years ago and did use it for quite a while. It's just that unless you just "want to", there's not much benefit of getting one over just checking your phone outside of certain specific niches such as if your work place doesn't allow you to have your phone out and doesn't have a clock nearby.
@@Gamer3427smart watches are pretty popular.
"My watch battery lasts 1 week. Can't say that about your phone..."
@@Gamer3427 I get that. It was a joke...
But also, marginally quicker is still quicker. Inch or a mile, as they say.
@@BrunodeSouzaLino I think you need a new watch! Heck, most of mine don't use batteries! Then again, left on a table they would only run for about 2 days...an untouched fully charged phone would certainly be fine for more than 2 days, but then is it even a phone?
initially, I thought the paper towel holder might have been over the top, but the cleaner tablets are 'low p[rofile' so good for eco shipping. I tend to use paper towels and a spray bottle, but this looks pretty neat. (Cardiff, UK - I wonder if it's available...?)
it occurs to me - why not leave the spray unit in place, and just squirt some onto a towel for small jobs..?
I want one!
I've had ideas for wrist/arm-mounting a phone for like a decade now, and I wonder if it would work a bit better having the phone on the inside of your arm instead of the outside. That's always been my mental vision of it. It would be a lot easier to answer a phone call that way as well if you needed too. Then again if you have headphones or bluetooth earbuds with a mic I guess you don't really need to hold it to your head anyway. You also wouldn't need to reach over and rotate it as often since it's easier to just do that with your arm if it's on the inside compared to the outside.
Yup my first thought as well was trying to see if anyone else had this idea. Only thing I’m not sure of is how easy it would be to strap it on that way. I’m not picturing in my mind but hopefully he can update video and try it.
All right James, you did the " blahhhh" thing with the straw! It's been a while, but it came back around...great video as always 👍 Happy Monday 🎉
Totally agree on the cup thing. Ready for the next video!!
A breathable mesh material would help with the phone wristband and sweaty arms. Of course, you could also use one of those silly USB fans and run it off your phone's USB port. :D
I can actually see my kids using the cup because they struggle to hold on to their meals in the car.
I think the notch on the straw for that snack cup is meant to go under the lid so it acts both as a way to block the hole and to prevent the straw from slipping out.
came for the products…stayed for the chill music
Battery adapters are great when you have a need but not the right size batteries !
Snack holder looks good...but I don't usually eat in the car (or McD) so...perhaps some day
I have a use-case for the wrist-phone holder - will try it. Good tip !
Don't like you have to use proprietary tabs for the atomizer...if you can use ordinary washing liquid in there...also a nice one !
We have a few of the older versions of the paper towel holder from simplehuman, which are great. My wife loves them; they are handy to keep on a counter.
the battery adapters are great! you won't get as much play time from a device, but for things that only take a couple batteries a year (like remotes) it sure beats buying a set of AA's JUST for the ONE remote, y'know?
A trucker living off mostly McDonalds, KFC and Popeyes would find the cup and bowl in one combo amazing! Now you can drive and eat at the same time.
Ludicrous, everyone knows truckers only eat filet mignon and caviar.
The paper towell holder has a satisfying click when inserting the spray bottle. Locked and loaded 👍
I've used a different brand of phone strap that went above the biceps. That one also had a quick-detach, so once it was mounted, you could quickly clip/unclip it without undoing the whole mount.
Also,for whatever reason, it keeps the batteries dry while in those casings if you happen to be outside or any condensation that could get into the cracks of whatever you’re putting the batteries in the cases will keep them dry too.
It should also keep the from getting corroded. I would think the plastic around them would keep all that battery acid and corrosion from leaking into whatever you have the batteries in..🤷🏻♀️🤔
I enjoy your reviews a lot; they are helpful.. You often review things I've seen online or considered buying. Plus, I like your humor. It's entertaining.
James you crack me up some times! Quote of the day "It's so asymmetrical"; this made me LOL 😊
I have the Simple Human paper towel thingie, but not the cleaner insert version. I received it from my son who’d gotten it for his own home, but because they use Viva paper towels, it was useless (the towel just tears). We’re a Bounty household, so it’s awesome!
I have a similar arm phone holder that I have found useful when grocery shopping using a grocery list app on the phone. I don't use it for just walking around though.
The AAA adapter is useful to toss in my EDC bag. Doesn't matter that they wouldn't last as long, it works in a pinch
To clean your outside plastic table, is a dish sponge with dish soap and hot water. Use cloth to wipe down. You will love the difference.
If I had to use something like that phone holder, I'd put it above the elbow. Still accessible for basic operations, but much less intrusive. It's not meant for long dedicated phone stuff (like gaming or significant texting) anyway. I think one of those 'premium' water flask brands had a thing similar to that snack bowl, but it was meant for their bottle specifically. This one seems like a cheap 'inspired by'. It can be tweaked by adding some silicon anti-crumbs element either to the straw or to the bottom of the bowl, but it seems to be working as intended.
The phone holder on the arm would not work for me because it's really hard for me to read my phone in the direct sun. I would need to shade it somehow. Plus, my phone is heavy, so nope, not for me. The paper towel holder is extremely expensive!!!! Thanks for showing us what we don't need. The other 2 items I don't need.
Get a Samsung s24 ultra. Super bright glare free screen . The lower models don't have the same features tho. Pricey but hella cool & I took a killer moon pic with it
I have those battery adapters and I love using them. As most of my stuff uses triple A it is just easier to buy triple A and use the adapter.
I knew the AA adapter would work because in the Vape industry mods that take 21700 batteries always come with adapters for 18650s as most mods take those, and many ppl have them laying around. They are extremely similar and all work perfectly.
Great Reviews Thank you
Finally someone who reviewed the paper towel holder correctly with the pulling of the paper towels 😊 Not at all hard to figure out but these people that have been reviewing it never use the arm feature as intended for ripping off individual towels 🤯
