Wall Mounted Waterproof Paper Holder Bathroom Paper Roll Holder (Blue)

I have a 6-month-old kitten that has discovered the joy of turning rolls of toilet paper into piles of fluffy lacy mountains. He even checks the bathroom multiple times each day in search of new rolls to destroy. I have tried several dispensers to keep toilet paper safe from kitties! They didn’t deter him. This toilet paper holder really works. It is simple to install; I used double-sided 3M mounting tape instead of the included materials (my choice). The toilet paper is easily accessible to humans while completely and effectively protected from kitties. Ah, sweet success!

For our 1 year old cat, TP rolls are the best toys ever. His eyes light up when he sees them! So we were looking for a catproof, fully covered paper holder. Such holders are more common than you'd expect, though not so much in the US. They're standard issue in Asia, where showers often aren't separated from the rest of the bathroom. They need covers to keep the paper dry. Amazon has lots of choices, but most of them are made from thin sheet metal. Reviewers complain that the metal cuts fingers. Plastic sounded safer. However, many plastic holders attach with suction cups, which wouldn't work for us. One screw-mounted ABS holder, the Oceanair Marine Dryroll Protective Toilet Roll Dispenser , looks like a top quality product. It's recessed, though, so I'd have to cut a hole in the wall to install it. No can do. This surface-mount plastic paper holder is the winner. It keeps the paper safe from kitty, but convenient for us. When the blue lid is down, the entire roll is fully enclosed and protected. Be careful, though. If you close it with any paper still hanging out (like you see in the Amazon photos), I guarantee that your mighty hunter will engage. Good bet you'll return to an empty roll and a TP-covered floor. This holder isn't exactly the height of powder room fashion, but it's not bad looking either. The plastic is surprisingly thick and heavy. It holds a full 1000 sheet roll of Scott paper. The only downside I've found is that the slots that the spring-loaded spindle fits into are shallow, and not easy to find when I'm loading a new roll. The plastic is slippery, so the spindle skids around without snapping into place. It often takes some tinkering. Sometimes I have to get down on the floor, level with the holder, to peer in and find the slots. As I write this, several different Amazon sellers ship this Chinese-made item, all from Asia. Ours came from SingyaBRA. The packaging was minimal. Fortunately, the holder wasn't damaged. Shipping took about a month.

I bought this toilet paper dispenser to go in the wet bath of my RV. Space is very limited, so I did not want a large dispenser with all of the bells and whistles many of the other products boasted. I wanted a basic toilet paper dispenser that was basically water proof. This dispenser is made of what appears to be a sturdy plastic. Construction is very simple. Essentially 3 pieces. The base, the cover and the spring loaded roller that holds the toilet paper. The dispenser comes with the necessary materials to fasten the dispenser to a wall with screws or to use double stick tape for mounting. When mounting directly to the wall using the provided screws and plaster board inserts, the installation should go smoothly and without any problems. The back of the dispenser is completely flat. This would allow one to use their own double stick tape as well. The dispenser comes with two double stick plastic fittings that have screws embedded in the plastic. The problem with the manufacturer provided double stick mounts is that in order to hold the mounting screws in the mounts, a small portion of the mounts are approximately 3/8 inch think. The mounting pieces themselves are approximately 1-1/2 inches square. The problem with these mounts is that since the back of the dispenser is completely flat, these mounts force the dispenser out from the wall the thickness of the mounts. This creates an unstable and somewhat wobbly dispenser on the wall. To rectify this problem, I used 4 each 1/4 inch thick felt self adhesive pads on the four corners of the back of the dispenser. This thoroughly stabilized the dispenser against the wall. The second problem I encountered during installation, is that the nuts provided to fasten the dispenser using the self adhesive mounts, were very small and barely covered the slots in the back of the dispenser when fastening the dispenser to the self stick mounts. I added some very small washers to address this problem. The installation completed with those modifications is very solid. When ever using any kind of double stick tape to mount anything, it is extremely important to ensure you thoroughly and completely clean the surface areas where the tape will be used. I use 91 percent rubbing alcohol. However any cleaning agent that will remove all grease, oil and dirt should work. I use a clean dry rag after cleaning to further ensure there are no contaminants to interfere with the self stick adhesive doing its job. One final comment about a potential for failure of the dispenser in the future. The small plastic protrusions on the dispenser base which act as pivots for the cover. I suspect that in time and with use, these protrusions may break off. I already have a plan for a good repair should that happen. A portion of a coat hanger and a empty soda can. I am cautious in the use of the word "water proof" with this dispenser. In my opinion there is one minor flaw in design. It is possible for the toilet paper to get wet. There should be no problem as long as water is not directed to the hinge area of the dispenser cover. I note that in many of the reviews people are looking for pet resistant dispensers. I think this dispenser should work well unless your cat or dog is smart enough to lift the cover. Another concern I note in reviews is that people were concerned if the giant sized rolls of toilet paper would fit. Again, I don't think there should be a problem. If you are using super large rolls, the lid would not fully close down, but that would not impede the dispenser fully performing its function. I have large rolls and there is still room for even a larger sized roll. Overall, I am quite pleased with this toilet paper dispenser. It will serve my needs nicely. The installation went smoothly and I am happy with the function and look of the dispenser.

Does exactly what it says on the tin

This kept our insane cat out of the toilet paper. Installs easily. It is a bit more of a pain to replace the roll than a standard one just because of what it is, so we eventually replaced ours once the cat was gone, but it looked nice in the bathroom and definitely served the intended purpose. The edges were plastic so if you're not careful you can kind of scratch yourself on them a bit but they would be easily sanded and they weren't actually 'sharp', we're just people in a hurry.

Il est parfais bonne grosseur pour les papier toilette de chez Costco car ils ont large et plus gros et les chats qui joue avec les papiers de toilette ne peuvent plus joue a dérouler les rouleaux Merci.

Easy to install

This product is great, very easy to install. I ordered in hopes my dog would not be able to figure it out, and get at my toilet paper. It worked so well that I ordered a second one for my other bathroom. The only thing I dislike is it is a bit tedious to change the toilet paper roll (have to line up the grooves correctly, not much room for hands to get in and place it properly because it is enclosed). Overall, I don't mind having to spend an extra minute refilling it as it keeps my pets out, but if that would bother you keep it in mind!
