Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2018 Color: Oil-rubbed BronzeStyle: Recessed Toilet Paper Holder Verified Purchase This is much nicer looking than the old one we had but omg, what a HASSLE to install! I have a great amount of patience and I'm quite the home DIY-er, but I wanted to break this into little pieces! The screws are pathetic, they stripped within a few turns off a manual screwdriver! Back out it came. ..you'll need to run some thin wire to the bracket so it doesn't fall down the inside of the wall all the time. I honestly can't believe how POORLY these are designed! Next time I EVER think about updating a wall mounted tp holder, I'll just remove the old one, drywall, tape, mud, texture and paint, then install a normal one! !! Holy cow what a rotten pain. Oh, good luck finding a good tutorial online ...they don't exist because this was designed by Satan! (Not really folks, but maybe? ) Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2021 Color: Oil-rubbed BronzeStyle: Recessed Toilet Paper Holder Verified Purchase I installed this in my motorhome. The wall thickness is 1 3/4 from the finish surface to the inside wall surface of the other side, which is exactly the minimum need for this to fit. So, I was not able to use the mounting bracket. As seen in photos, I drilled and countersunk the four corners and used oval head brass screws. I glued backing inside the wall surface so the screws would have more than 1/8" ply to bite into. The fit and finish of this is very good, seems durable. It is made out of zinc or aluminum (not magnetic), so I had to touch up the countersink holes w/ a sharpie. It barely fits the large Costco rolls, which will not roll out by simply pulling; it takes jiggling with your other hand (photo). Overall a nice product and was a good solution for me. 4.0 out of 5 stars Nice fit and finish I installed this in my motorhome.

Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2019 Color: Oil-rubbed BronzeStyle: Recessed Toilet Paper Holder Verified Purchase It's sturdy metal. Oiled rubbed bronze is a pretty good rendition. Ours went into the cabinet next to the toilet. Cut out a slot, put it in, secure with a back bar, screw to tighten, done. I think you can even move the back bar a bit side to side in case a different position makes it easier to screw on. the space is big enough to handle Costco or Sams Club sized rolls. Now the TP holder is off to the side, instead of performing an exorcist move to reach behind on the wall. Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2016 Color: Oil-rubbed BronzeStyle: Recessed Toilet Paper Holder Verified Purchase I just ordered a second one for my upstairs bath as well. Great paper holder, The color is dark oiled bronze, nearly black, just what I was looking for, Installation, 1) cut the included template out (I used the smaller of the two patterns shown), No complaints, and would recommend. Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2020 Color: Oil-rubbed BronzeStyle: Recessed Toilet Paper Holder Verified Purchase Before purchasing I read the reviews and decided to buy. Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2019 Color: Oil-rubbed BronzeStyle: Recessed Toilet Paper Holder Verified Purchase Adds a nice updated look in a remodeled bathroom for not a lot of money. I can't tell the difference between this one and a more expensive model. I will say it could be a little deeper, but that is not the fault of the manufacturer as all of these are pretty much the same depth. The toilet paper I use gets hung up because the roll is too thick, so you either have to leave it out for a few uses or force the roll to turn by hand. Or use a thinner paper. Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2021 Color: Oil-rubbed BronzeStyle: Recessed Toilet Paper Holder Verified Purchase We have a very small bathroom and the toilet is too close to the vanity for a standard toilet paper holder, so we've had a floor stand holder for years that I didn't like. We finally bought this recessed holder and it's AWESOME. Says it's for wall mounting, but it mounted on our vanity just fine. One thing to note is the "mega" rolls get stuck and don't roll well, so I bought "regular size" rolls (which are actually hard to find these days) and they work much better. 5.0 out of 5 stars PERFECT FOR TIGHT BATHROOMS We have a very small bathroom and the toilet is too close to the vanity for a standard toilet paper holder, so we've had a floor stand holder for years that I didn't like.

Images in this review Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2016 Color: Oil-rubbed BronzeStyle: Recessed Toilet Paper Holder Verified Purchase Bought for a total overhaul of our <20sf powder room, to replace the very dated (and rusty!) polished chrome and acrylic tp holder. I love the look. The squared and slightly beveled corners look classy, and the slightly highlighted accents in the color are understated enough that it works well with both oil rubbed bronze and black fixtures (we have both). Two minor complaints---first, it's not quite big enough to hold the jumbo Costco-sized rolls, so I end up setting the new roll on the counter until it's been used up enough to fit. And second, the matte black/bronze finish obviously shows tp fibers that get shed as the roll gets used. But I figure in both cases it's probably due to the paper we buy (giant Kirkland brand 30-pack) and would be the same with another tp holder. 3.0 out of 5 stars El color difiere de las imágenes Reviewed in Mexico on June 23, 2021 Color: Oil-rubbed BronzeStyle: Recessed Toilet Paper Holder Verified Purchase The media could not be loaded.

Instructions and template were spot on. Easy to install. Make sure you have space behind it. Not likely to work if you have drawers on the other side. Makes a big difference for tight spaces around the toilet (like ours). Cabinet is stained espresso and this blends in so well it looks custom. 4.0 out of 5 stars Nice color & easy install Reviewed in Canada on July 24, 2020 Color: Oil-rubbed BronzeStyle: Recessed Toilet Paper Holder Verified Purchase Looks great tho I think a bit pricey for the material. Easy install and fit into the hole of the old 80s style one we removed so that made it a smooth install. Nice color as well. 5.0 out of 5 stars Good quality Reviewed in Canada on May 6, 2021 Color: Oil-rubbed BronzeStyle: Recessed Toilet Paper Holder Verified Purchase Appears to be of good quality materials, finish and construction, and easy standard installation. 4.0 out of 5 stars You might need shorter screws or be willing to cut ... Reviewed in Canada on January 16, 2018 Color: Oil-rubbed BronzeStyle: Recessed Toilet Paper Holder Verified Purchase You might need shorter screws or be willing to cut down the supplied ones if you don't intend to use the part of the kit that mounts the holder into an opening in the gyprock. (That is if you don't use the compression fitting but screw it right onto a backing board between the studs.) Reviews with images

I didn't have the issues others mentioned,
mine came with a back plate,
& double sized rolls do fit it to my satisfaction.
and the paper holder is spring loaded and positively holds the paper in.
literally took 10 minutes to install in my bath (single layer sheetrock walls)
2) find the stud(s) & stud void closest to the toilet
(I have baseboard heat, so I looked inside the heater for its mounting screws to immediately find the stud, instead of tapping the wall listening for the void, or grabbing a magnet to find sheetrock screws)
3) held the template to the wall in a convenient location in the void between studs
4) leveled the template, traced out the square shape in pencil, & cut the single layer sheetrock layer with a simple sheetrock saw.
(my previous home had wood lathe & horsehair plaster walls,
that would have required a more substantial saw, a way to secure the lathes while cutting them and some kind of respiratory protection when cutting)
5) attached the backing plate to the holder with two screws, leaving the screws loose
6) popped the backing plate through the wall,
tightened the screws, leveling the housing as I tightened the screws.
Done.
1. + The product is sturdy and made of decent material.
2. + The color is true to an oil rubbed bronze finish with the edges having the copper tone. Nice
3.+ Installation was super easy. Follow the instructions. Do not over-tighten once it is in to avoid curling the corners.
4. - The arms that extend to hold the rod are too short. I guess this adds to the space saving idea but a new roll of Scott toilet paper rubs against the bottom and back of the unit causing it to not roll freely. The old unit I removed is the same dimensions except for the length of the arms. I noticed this in the photos but did not think much about it until I got it installed.
I have returned the two units I bought and will begin the process over again.
