Umbra Tug Paper Towel Holder

What is Tug?

Tug is an easy to use, freestanding one-handed paper towel holder that allows you to take a sheet of paper towel using just one hand.

Curved Rubber Spine

The unique curved rubber spine of Tug has been engineered to provide just the right amount of resistance to hold any standard size roll of paper towels in place so you get an easy one-handed tear every time.

Original, High-Quality Choice

Unlike traditional mounted paper towel dispensers that are fixed in place, Tug gives you the flexibility and convenience of moving to where it’s needed most.

One-Handed Tears

Here’s Why You’ll Love Tug

Easy to Load and Easy to Use

With nothing to remove or unscrew and no tension arm to hold back, Tug Paper Towel Holder couldn’t be easier to load. Simply slide a roll of your favorite brand of standard size paper towel onto the spine and you’re ready to go – it’s that simple.

Weighted Scratch-Free Base

Tug is a weighted paper towel holder and the 6.5-inch weighted base helps prevent it from toppling over and ensuring it stays in place each time you tear off a sheet. The base is also padded to prevent Tug from sliding or scratching the surface you place it on.

One-Handed Tears Every Time

Simply pull back the sheet and give a firm ‘tug’ from the top down to tear it away along the perforation.

See more I bought this because my other paper towel holder make the worst and most annoying sound as it would slide across our quartz counter tops. The padded base does not make a sound when you pull a paper towel or move the holder across the counter.

The rubber spine holds the paper towel core securely. This makes it easy to pull a paper towel off with one hand. The spine isn''t attractive but it serves its purpose very well... and you can''t see the spine with a paper towel roll is inserted on the holder.

The quality is very good. It looks good sitting on the counter. I recommend this to anyone. 118 people found this helpful Helpful

I didn''t find that it was a "one tug" papertowel dispenser. I returned it. As far as it holding papertowel, yes, it can do that but just did not find that it functioned as a "one tug".

See more PROTECTS MY GRANITE COUNTERTOPS! I just had granite countertops installed and I cringed every time I heard my old metal paper towel holder being dragged across the surfaces when attempting to tear off paper towels one-handed. This holder is heavy and allows one-handed tearing with ease and the best part of all is the soft foam/rubber like base that protects your countertops from any damage or scratches.
The paper towel roll slips right on for me with no problem and that''s using the "jumbo" size rolls. Nice modern look and doesn''t look out of place sitting out on the counter. Well worth it! 19 people found this helpful Helpful

See more I just received my Umbra Tug Modern Stand Up Paper Towel Holder and I have to say I am very unimpressed. Other reviewers have mentioned receiving units with damaged bases and mine arrived looking like it had been used as a hammer. Not only was the circular base anything but circular but the actual paper towel holding extension was very wobbly and loose. I would advise looking elsewhere for a more robust and sturdy unit. Unfortunately this truly has a very low quality look and feel. 44 people found this helpful Helpful

You have to be swift, fast and precise with the motion to tear off one single paper without letting the whole rim spin out of control. Its just as regular as other holders. And pricey for that.
