Umbra Tucan Paper Towel Holder

Very pleasing design and seems to work well.

Pros

looks very smart sitting on the counter. gotta love the toucan 'beak'

very easy to put a new roll of towels on the holder, you just lift up the 'beak' of the toucan and remove the old roll and drop the new one on

Cons

Base seems a little lightweightI have another Umbra towel holder that weighs another few ounces than this one and that seems a bit more 'solid'.

Having said that, the lack of a really heavy base doesn't seem to impact the performance. It is pretty stable overall and I am able to tear off a towel with just one hand, which is the acceptance criterion:-)

If the base weighed the same as the other one I have, I would given it 5 stars.

I was fed up with my hanging towel holder. Always in the way, and tough to get the towels off.

This rack is just right. Doesn't take up too much counter space, and is lightweight. I don't think you need the spring contraption or all of the weight that comes with some units.

Cute/unique design... you lift the "beak" to insert the roll, then put it down on top of the roll to hold the towel roll down. Single towels rip off easily.

Enjoy!
