AuldHome Design Farmhouse Paper Towel Holder, Digi Mart USA News: Paper towels are handy on the counter but exposed to dust and splatters, while cabinet storage can be inconvenient. A publisher review in House Digest points to the AuldHome Design Farmhouse Paper Towel Holder, sold on Amazon, as a countertop option that fully encloses the roll.
The holder is made of galvanized steel coated in white enamel and measures 14.5 inches tall, including its domed lid with handle. It is 6.4 inches wide, which the review says leaves room for a jumbo roll.
The roll is placed inside by lifting the lid, and towels are pulled through an open vertical slit so the rest of the roll stays enclosed.
The review describes mild distressing on the edges and the words “Paper Towels” in black cursive along the opening, a design meant to suit farmhouse or country-cottage kitchens. It also says customers have used the canister as a tabletop centerpiece and for outdoor use, such as camping, grilling or picnics.
The review notes one drawback mentioned by customers: the canister has no internal support rod, so as the roll gets low it can tip and the towels may no longer line up with the slot. According to the review, one customer addressed this by placing a basic rod-style paper towel holder inside the canister to keep the roll upright.
