Review on High-Quality Oil Rubbed Bronze Recessed Toilet/Tissue Paper Holder with Mounting Bracket - Durable All-Metal Construction for Designers Impressions by Bill Pulakanam

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good Oil Bronze Recessed Toilet Paper Holder

This is a beautiful recessed toilet paper holder. As mentioned, it can hold a huge roll of toilet paper (like a Costco one), although it's taut at first and rubs against the smooth inside until the roll shrinks a bit. The Oil Rubbed Bronze looks beautiful and matches my other bathroom decor purchases from Kingston Brass & Dynasty Hardware. The design is simple and easy to install. Strangely, however, the screws are too long and touch the other side of the wall. I had to cut off about 1/2 inch from each. My advice is to put the screws in the toilet paper holder and then screw them into the bracket as instructed. The instructions say to screw them in 3 turns, but instead screw them in further until they stick out a full inch. Then cut 1/2 inch off the ends (any cutting tool will do as the screws are not hardened). I have uploaded some photos to show the product and a simple guide. It should be noted that most of the oiled bronze lights I've purchased come with a warning about the durability of the plating, including this one. Take a look at the disclaimer that accompanies this article (as shown). Of course, these care instructions do not appear prominently when shopping online. Essentially, Oil Rubbed Bronze may not be for you if you're looking for something permanent that can handle all of your favorite harsh cleaning supplies (or even something as "rough" as a paper towel).

Pros
  • Aluminum Insert
Cons
  • Some Faults
