Editor's Notes
July 10, 2020:
Paper towel dispensers are necessary to keep areas sanitary. Considering there are so many options to choose from, you should think about the style you want, the type of towel you will use, and where you will place it before you make a purchase.
Wall-mounted options such as the Pacific Blue Ultra Mini and the Georgia Pacific SofPull are perfect for high traffic areas as they can hold many paper towels and help reduce the time you spend refilling the unit. They also help you save counter space.
Countertop dispensers like Oasis Creations don't hold as many sheets, but they are ideal when the wall is not suitable for mounting or cluttered with other accessories. Additionally, you can move them around as needed.
Undercabinet models offer the convenience of wall-mounted units by keeping them up off the counter. The Innovia Automatic 2159W and the Wooden Mallet WCT1LO, for example, load and dispense easily.
Hands-free units are the most hygienic solution for reducing cross-contamination. Both the Pacific Blue Ultra Mini and the Innovia Automatic 2159W operate using sensors, so there is no need to touch the dispenser at all.
