Agape Diapason Toilet Roll Holder

Agape's Diapason toilet paper holder is like a torpedo tube for your bathroom: it's always armed and ready for use. Just squeeze the rods together to dispense a new roll for use and lift from the hanging wall holder when you need to rearm.

Hmm. After my son figured that game out all of those TP rolls would be in the toilet bowl before you could say "Charmin"!

not a fan of products that display toilet paper. i like rolls hidden away. the only roll i want to see is the one being used. the rest ought to be tucked away, no?

Dear AT,
Why the obsession with toiletpaper holders?
There have been several posts recently.

cityofparis: March is bathroom month, so you'll see a focus on many bathroom related items :)

I like it. it reminds of me of dutch toilet paper stands, which I also like. I wonder if you could do this yourself with a wire coat hanger and still make it look good? probably worth a go.

I'd like something like this in public restrooms - seems it's impossible to get the 'next' roll in those contraptions

Otherwise, I'm with Heatherleaf -- I don't want to see multiple rolls on display.
I hate those baskets of rolls of TP in some bathrooms.

But I guess I live alone so I'm always in charge of a possibly dwindling supply. If I expect guests... I change out a low roll before they arrive so they don't have cross their fingers!!

All these toilet paper multiples may work for the lady who sat on the toilet for 2 years - but I personally find them very tacky. I'm actually surprised, given the usual pared down aesthetic of AT, to see this obsession with the multiple TP's. Dr. Freud would have a field day.

@wc_cancuk : A wire coat hangar with multiple TP? I beg you to reconsider. Unless of course you're going for the ever popular " Joe Orton in the public urinal" look, in which case by all means carry on.

I guess those who by toilet paper 20 rolls at a time, think it is normal to have 3 or 4 out on display.

I dont live at a Summer Camp, so I dont need more than one roll out in the open. It may just be me, but I dont find toilet paper very beautiful.

i kinda like the look, especially if there is a decent amount of paper being used like more than one person using the bathroom, but alas i don't think its for sale anywhere
