Grab, tear, repeat.
Standing by for all your counter-dusting and spill-sopping: this modern metal paper towel holder. It’s got just enough curve at the bottom to keep your rolls in place, all while giving you an easy-breezy tear every time. It’s coming in a spread of eye-catching shades, too—we’re fawning over cayenne—and just so happens to be Danish-designed (so that’s where it gets its flair).

Perfect paper towel holder.
Simple, clean and functional. The lip on the bottom helps keeps the sheets coiled on the roll. No mess, no fuss!
Simple, beautiful but not 100%
I love almost everything about this paper towel holder. It is simple, sturdy, and actually pretty. But the base is just a tiny bit too small for those extra large rolls. Because it has a little lip on it, the larger roll doesn't sit flush with the base until some paper towels have been used. Yes, I can buy smaller rolls but just needed to share to be transparent.
Love the style
Love the minimalist style. Only flaw is I had to put small rubber pads on the bottom so it didn’t slide when I pull a paper towel off.
