Tools and Hardware Reviews of OXO Good Grips Grip and Rip Stainless Steel Paper Towel Holder
Customer Review: Good looks, bad performance
Summary: 2 Stars
I'm a huge OXO fan. This is the first product of theirs I've ever returned. 2 hands are required to remove a sheet of toweling with this holder, and even then it's not a smooth operation. It gets 2 stars for appearance only.Customer Review: Just like all Oxo product - very user friendly

Summary: 5 Stars
I had this white plastic portable paper towel holder I loved and I had it for about 20 years -- I'd never seen another one like it. It was perfect for my apartment. It fit nicely on top of my refrigerator and in my small kitchen, there really isn't any place for an under-cabinet mounted paper towel holder. Then, one day, I knocked the thing off the top of the fridge and a piece broke off.
This stainless and black plastic OXO Goodgrips Grip and Rip is close to the one I broke and better, actually. The brushed stainless body of it looks great. It has enough weight to stay put. The rubber ring on its bottom grips the countertop and leaves no marks of any kind.
The bottom of the unit has a slightly raised rim to keep the towels from unwinding on their own, and unlike another unit I considered, the base isn't larger than it needs to be -- yet it will hold the large-sized roll of towels as well as the smaller standard size.
What I really like about it is the fact that the whole unit rotates on a bearing when you pull towels off. You can put your hand flat on top of the knob to steady it, and the stainless top of the knob allows the unit to rotate underneath it. When you've unrolled just the number of towels you want to tear off, you only need to grip the clingy rubber underside of the knob with your hand and the unit won't turn so you can tear off the towels.
To refill, just press the black button top center on the knob and it comes off so you can remove the empty carboard tube and slip on a new roll. The knob snaps easily into place again.
Couldn't be simpler and couldn't work better. And it fits into the limited space I have on top of the fridge. Seriously, I have to hand it to OXO Good Grips -- their products are typically excellent and this one is, too.
Customer Review: Looks good, but....
Summary: 1 Stars
I've had this dispnser for about 6 months now. I never really loved it, but at least it worked. First, the paper does not turn freely and you defintley can't use it with just one hand. Last week the top locking mechanism failed, so now I am really unhappy with it.
