According to my Google search, January is Bathroom SAFETY month and not Bathroom month. Either way, who is creating these observances? Product manufacturers? I can understand a device to hold multiple tissue rolls, but I canNOT understand a single designer toilet paper holder that requires extra work (per last week's AT conference posting). Read Cottonelle's press release. It is HI-larious. https://www.cottonelle.com/respect-the-roll/In-The-News The new designer holder is being billed as a solution. Solution to what? And to also have a trade conference among adults on this holder? Huh? :-)

Below is a toilet paper holder press release from Cottonelle. It is HI-larious. There is also a photo captioned, "Residents line up to get an autographed roll cover." See https://www.cottonelle.com/respect-the-roll/In-The-News

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Are we consumers being punked? This can't be for real.

I plan to send this in to Saturday Night Live and Jimmy Fallon. Maybe they will do a skit. It's such a bizarre product. I would have much more respect for Cottonelle if they would produce toilet paper without the tubes, like Kimberly-Clark.

Jonathan Adler graced the South Town Mall for a roll cover signing and demonstration over the weekend. It seemed the whole town turned up to meet the designer of the new roll covers. Lines of die-hard fans camping out for the event stretched around the corner. Lila West had been out there since midnight. "I just can’t wait to meet Jonathan. He’s such an amazing designer," she said.

Adler spent the day meeting his adoring fans and posing for pictures. He also demonstrated to fans how he respects the roll and afterward even signed roll covers for a lucky few.

"My spare roll gets to sit in an autographed roll cover. Now that’s what I call respect," said Jenny Hahn.

As a special promotion, 10 roll covers, autographed by the designer himself, will be given away. Be on the lookout for special instructions through our Twitter feed on how to get one of these limited edition, signed roll covers.

Why does the world need a Jonathan Adler or any other designer toilet paper cover? Honestly. One more thing to do in our busy lives. If nobody likes to change out the empty toilet roll, why are we suddenly going to like putting a fresh roll into the decorative holder, then taking it out to use it and then putting a replacement roll in?

this is the WORST place to do business. phone service is horrible -- phones are answered by young girls who have no power, no resources, no people / sales skills. they tell you the tile is in stock. they promise to call back with the price. they never call. you schlepp an hour to get there and the tile is NOT in stock. you wait at least half an hour before you get any service. you order the tile and they tell you it will be in several days later at 3pm and they will call. they never call. you call the next day to find the order was never shipped. they can't do anything about it b/c the salesman is out for half the day. the experience just get worse and worse. it's quite unbelievable that anybody can stay in business at this rate. go somewhere else. it's not worth the stress b/c i promise you, they WILL rile you up.
