In this Pulitzer Prize-winning, New York Times bestselling follow-up to The Underground Railroad, Colson Whitehead brilliantly dramatizes another strand of American history through the story of two boys unjustly sentenced to a hellish reform school in Jim Crow-era Florida. When Elwood Curtis, a black boy growing up in 1960s Tallahassee, is unfairly sentenced to a juvenile reformatory called the Nickel Academy, he finds himself trapped in a grotesque chamber of horrors. Elwood's only salvation is his friendship with fellow "delinquent" Turner, which deepens despite Turner's conviction that Elwood is hopelessly naive, that the world is crooked, and that the only way to survive is to scheme and avoid trouble. As life at the Academy becomes ever more perilous, the tension between Elwood's ideals and Turner's skepticism leads to a decision whose repercussions will echo down the decades. Based on the real story of a reform school that operated for 111 years and warped the lives of thousands of children, The Nickel Boys is a devastating, driven narrative that showcases a great American novelist writing at the height of his powers and "should further cement Whitehead as one of his generation's best" (Entertainment Weekly).

Good size, looks nice, mostly easy to put together and install
Okay I love this a lot more than I expected to. I was not extremely excited about the instructions. They come with a warning that if you have any doubts about your ability to install this, call a qualified technician. It just seemed condescending. Also, everything is printed poorly, like someone put this together in the 80's and it printed smudgingly and this is the copies from that. The only thing that this made confusing was when trying to figure out where the cabinet screws go (before I realized that was an alternative install), you really can't tell which holes they go in. Turns out they probably go in the holes covered by the pre-installed sticky PVC mat.
Only other issue I had was that it comes with a screwdriver. It seems so wasteful to include something that should be in every household, especially those who buy diy things like this.
But beyond that, everything else is great. It was easy to put together, it was easy to place in the cupboard, and it was easy to fill.
I love that each line comes out individually. It's nice and sturdy. I tried pulling on it to test it, and the sticky was strong.
I mostly loved that, even though this took up 3/4 of the shelf, I was able to fit all my small spices AND my honey AND my sprinkles. I went from 3 overflowing shelves to 2 full shelves and an almost empty one. I only have 6 items on the top. I feel super happy about this.

Functional and Good Quality
Color: 01-silver, Color: 01-silver
I give this SMARTAKE paper towel holder 4 stars. Overall, it's a very good product that I would recommend, but it has one minor drawback that takes away a star.
The Positives
Quality and Stability: The holder feels good quality, and the material (steel) is sturdy. Once placed on the counter, it's stable and adheres well to the surface.
Assembly and Use: It was easy to put together; just read the instruction manual. I confirm that it works well even with large paper towel rolls. Furthermore, it's not difficult to change the roll at all.
The Drawback
The only problem is the small mechanism that's supposed to adjust and hold the roll (the piece that prevents it from twisting too much). As the paper gets used up, this piece doesn't do its job properly, and the paper unwinds more than it should.
Conclusion: If you're looking for a modern, stable, and well-made holder for your kitchen, this is excellent. Just keep in mind that the adjuster isn't the best, but other than that, it does its job perfectly.
