A freestanding carbon steel holder for paper towel and tissue rolls, in black. The weighted base is the feature that matters: a light holder slides across the counter and tips when you tear a sheet, while a weighted one lets you pull one-handed with a wet hand — which is the only way anyone ever uses kitchen towel.

Buying guide
Keep it away from the sink splash zone — carbon steel with a painted finish will eventually mark where water sits. Wipe it dry rather than leaving droplets on the base. An upright holder uses far less counter than a horizontal one, so it suits a small kitchen where a flat holder would take up prime chopping space.
How it compares
Against a wall-mounted holder, a freestanding one needs no drilling and can move — important in a rental. Against a horizontal holder, upright takes less counter area. Against leaving the roll on the counter, it stays clean, dry and tearable with one hand.
