You know you’ve reached adulthood when you watch paper towel holder reviews.

I'm watching a video on paper towel holders & actually pretty excited which one comes out on top. ...I feel so old. 😭😭

What am i doing with my life? Why am I watching people review paper towel holders?

Great review ... but, why didn't you tear paper towels off so we could see if you could REALLY do it *one-handed*? And, what it looks like when you get to the end of the roll?

I've got their under cabinet holder & it's amazing. Seriously I know it's just a paper towel holder but it just does it's job so freaking well. When good design meets function.

I bought this based on your recommendation and it is fantastic! Does everything you say and ripping the sheets off is so easy one-handed, no matter if it is a half sheet or full sheet. Thank you!

Can’t really go wrong with Simple Human or OXO brands. Quality engineering, beautiful design.

Thank you! I need a paper towel holder and this was very timely. 😁

Our dilemma was finding an under-cabinet mount paper towel holder that could accept jumbo rolls. We finally found one on Amazon and it was only $12.

Wow you actually covered this, so happy to see how this is working, Thanks.

We want Lisa back

Now I can sleep at night! Thank you for doing the tough research...

I hated my holder but didn't understand how one would work properly until this video showed me the thoughtfully engineered model. I will be buying that on my next trip to town.

Ohhhh I have that one and love it!

Love it!! Thank you!

Yes! Separate out the reviews, so I can find them, whenever I‘m in the market for new equipment!

Loved this thank you!

Always nice to see you and hear your voices! Have a nice day ! ❤️

Thank you for another experiment review!

I like horizontal paper towel holder because counter space is a premium in my tiny kitchen 🙃

Love my oxo holder.

Always worth watching, thank you.

I love this show

Why is it better than the OXO one (which is the same price and has better reviews on Amazon)?

Yo where my girl Lisa?

Must have!!!!

So what if I'm watching this? I really do want a paper towel holder!

Thanks love these videos

👍😀 The second one better. It's can handle with any size of paper towels. I have one and very love it

It is a bit embarrassing I’m a 39 yr old man that’s pretty excited about this video and any equipment reviews. Lol. Love this channel.

I freakin' love Adam

I was just about to buy a paper towel holder, so this video is all I could ever ask for.

awesome as usualy

Where is my official tester gadget girl??

I didn’t need to replace my paper towel holder until I watched this episode. Lol

Hi Adam! Could y’all review hand held can openers? One no name brand I had was weak so I picked up one by ECKO and it left little metal bits behind. Now I am back to the wimpy one. If you could that would awesome thanks!

The only thing I've learned is that metal paper towel holders look remarkably a lot like lightsabers.

Wish you mentioned all the ones you tested by name. Also, you should have demonstrated the winner by ripping off from the jumbo roll as well as the thinner roll. Been comparing the SH and Oxo online, and it would have been helpful if you mentioned whether you tested the Oxo (I can't see how you couldn't given you are usually pretty thorough with your tests) and why SH was better.

Not getting this one. The reviews on amazon have a lot of bad ones. People complained a ton about the plastic piece breaking after a couple months. Plus the skinny rod causes the paper towels to wobble. The Oxo does the same but has better reviews by far more people. I’m going with that one. Wanted this one but 2k reviews speak loud.

I say if you tear the paper quickly enough it's in your hands and that's it.

Why did you film this in an informercial style?

ANY TIPS for using the winner? Its not as easy as they say. Dont always get a one-handrd tear. Wondering if placing the tension arm at a certain position (as a right hander) for example....Its been inconsistent for me. THX

I bought the one they recommend. It does exactly what they described. I have one issue with it that makes me not like it. Maybe it's just me. The flat wide base which is what's makes it stable so you can tear pieces off with one hand is a paper towel dust, water, and anything else that people have on their hands when reaching for the towel....collector. As soon as the roll begins to get smaller that wide base gets mucky. I'm constantly wiping it off. It's like my new hobby. Of course you can just leave it all sitting there but remember the bottom of the roll is sitting in and absorbing that muck. Gross. Apparently I have way too much time on my hands.

I should be studying for my calculus exam...

Man likes his rolls

Honestly I wouldn't expect any other sort of host to describe the intricacies of paper towel holders.

Thanks for showing us how it worked.. Oh wait, ya didn't. Next, review a tv but don't turn it on lol

YESSSSSS FINALLY

It seems like such a simple task. Why has it taken so long to get it right? I will be replacing mine soon.

Simplehuman 4 lifeee. Throwing out gang signs. 😝 I have three of these things around my house.

I have the winner...it truly is great. Nothing special about a paper towel holder, but when it works right and you don't have to think about it, that's the winning ticket.

Oxo is the one have a really like it But I'm sure Simple Human products ate really good too

I want this so badly but my kitchen is very small and giving up counter space to paper towels is not really and option. *sad face*

Ok, now review the under counter mounted versions!! Is the simple human version the best as well?

Which brands were tested ?

Now that I got that information.............

And those are all tablebpaperbtowel holder which my fam and I don't like lol Any reviews for the under cabinet or wall mounted ones?

So does the tension arm with the stopper rubber allow you to unroll with one hand or does it hang up? I hate when they don't show it in use. I prefer to not hog up my counter space. I'm an under the counter towel holder person. The old fashion metal ones that have tension, not the plastic crappy ones. Little secret....if you do it right, you can tear it with a jerk of one hand. It takes practice but I'm sure someone with a college degree can figure it out.

is it long lasting though?

On the one with the fixed post, it didn't work well because Adam was tearing down from the top, where the bar didn't reach. If he had torn up, the sheet would have separated cleanly from the roll.

I was surprised at how lousy the Oxo design is. It has a flimsy spring attached to a flimsy (plastic?) hook for the tensioner. It will fail pretty quickly. And, the stainless steel cover for the base seems to be glued on, so it's pretty much impossible to repair. [Otherwise, it would be pretty easy to fix the spring.]

The oxo paper towel holder is almost identical to the simple human as well

It's a bit of a shame the Joseph Joseph Push&Tear didn't make it. It uses a different system, to be sure, and requires an arm (but not another hand) to push down but it's simple and reliable, with few pieces that risk breaking.

Where's Lisa? I like the reviews with Lisa.

The study is good but would have been better if mounted paper towel holders had been included...cause after all everyone doesn’t have counter space for a standing paper towel holder...

People dont relzie they were just having fun with this video

Whats the Americas test kitchen's best muffin tin?

Would be helpful if you showed us how the winning holder worked, not just described it.

Is this a re-upload? YOU CAN'T FOOL ME

Y'all beat CR (consumer reports) any day!

Anyone else have a paper towel holder that was just a base and a post? Because that's all I've had and I've never thought twice about it.

No one: America's Test Kitchen: So we got the top 27 towel hanging hooks and hung 500 towels each on them for one month straight. Me: Nice so which one was the be- ATK: Then we sent them all to a lab to see which molecular structure held up the best when we shot them w 9mm handguns at close range in a home invasion test scenario.

Me: Actually nvm my current towel hanging hook works fine idk if I really support this anym- ATK: After thorough testing and 47 deaths, we found that the Oxxo Good Grips towel hanging hook stood up to every kitchen challenge and even a few violent non-kitchen hardships by our testers. Only 2 people died within the year that it was tested and at $9.99 for a set of two it's an absolute bargain!

Hi

I bought the recommended paper towel holder. The resistance arm loosened and eventually broke off at the hinged connection at the base of the paper towel holder after about 6 months. The hinged connection is made of cheap plastic which does not stand the test of time. I recommend not waisting your money on this product.

when are you going to start a keto section of your recipes?

Saw use reviews on Amazon where the tension arm breaks off because of poor design.

I agree BUT does anyone remember when they had practically free plastic holders that screwed into and hung under the cabinet? Where did they go? Ive loved the winning one for years but its 25x what the cost would be if they still made the plastic one, does NOT do as good a job, and is constantly building up layers of paper dust on the base thats one more job i dont need.

Wished they demonstrated how the winner worked.

What else can you do with these things?

Am I the only one mad that he didn’t rip a paper towel off of the one he recommended?

It has one job and it has to hold paper towels are you sure about that I removed it from paper towels and use it as a headphone holder

I think your presenters are good but this is the old tv format. I prefer a more relatable feel

Just jumping from a old equipment review to this. This feels so much so like an ad. :( with the whole thing of a person telling another about the tool n them chirping about how ‘impressive’ it is. -.- its an tv ad :( hope y’all be more sincere n offer a few more similar products too.

It's pretty clearly marked as an equipment review. It's done the same way the equipment reviews are always done on this show. Yet commenters inexplicably complain that the whole idea is dumb and unnecessary. So why watch? Or insist it's fixed. How exactly? Prove that. It's overproduced and feels like an infomercial. Again, it's the same as the others on the show, nothing different or new. Or say Lisa should be here and ask why is Adam substituting? Lisa only demonstrates weird kitchen gadgets and only once in a while. Adam has done equipment reviews since the very beginning. Or they call Adam mean or homophobic names. Why would click on an equipment review just to insult the person doing it? What kind of person does that? Yes, I'm being preachy. If you can make silly complaints, I can be preachy.

Generally a fan of these reviews, but after all of that and you won't demonstrate how great that holder is at letting you easily tare a sheet.. what exactly was the point of the demonstration?

WHAT WAS SO HARD ABOUT PULLING A SHEET OF PAPER ON THE LAST ONE

Now $35.99

A shame you don't provide in the details all the models reviewed and rank then. Perhaps not important on towel roll holder but for blenders, etc. Maybe there are features we don't care about? Maybe the 2nd best is a better value. Virtually all the reviews just pan across the contenders, then you just focus on the Tr top pick.

Owned the simplehuman one. It's shit. Tension arm loosens and it's still light enough to move around. They didn't review the Kamenstein, which is worlds better in my opinion, and doesn't have the stupid tension arm flipping over itself - it uses an internal ratcheting break. It's cheaper, too.

I have two end units with magnets that I have put on the side of my fridge, it frees up counter-top. If your worried about tear off, well all I can say is 1st world problems. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GD114KY/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Looks like this is just more crap. Tons of people complaining about the cheap plastic connector on the arm breaking off. Guess they never bothered to look at the amazon reviews before recommending this. How long did they test this? A couple minutes, hours, days? The OXO has more reviews and better reviews, but also has it's own problems.

Wow, that’s one high brow vid.

If you're short that suction cup won't work

he sounds like a salesman

Did anyone else listen to the end and get a bit creeped out by the "I'll see YOU later"?

Shakespeare wrote about this video: Much Ado About...?

Sorry, I use simple human everything. The tension arm broke off right away. Item is useless. Came here looking for a replacement that doesn’t topple over.

Save counter space and money dont use a holder. I just leave on the counter. Have done this for years no problem

This was five years ago now they cost $70…😳

Well I think $20+ is too much for a paper towel holder... until I inevitably spill something, try to grab several paper towels and end up slinging the metal piece of junk I wasted $8 on across the kitchen! Buy once cry once! Thanks
