My toilet paper hangs properly, over the top. I too have a vertical paper towel holder. My cats play with the paper towels, but not with the toilet paper. Just saying. aside: my cats are certifiably insane, and I know this. So their evidence is, well, not always credible. nonetheless... I have cats.

Unlike a toilet paper holder, which is usually just on a blank wall, a paper towel holder hangs over a counter, and you don't want the end hanging down and getting in the way. And, you don't often find yourself fumbling in the middle of the night for a paper towel like you do a piece of toilet paper. On the other hand, sometimes you need a paper towel, QUICK (cough*toddlers*cough), and who wants to hunt for the end piece? Ah, a gray area, this. We solve the issue by having a paper towel holder that sits vertically on the counter. Hmmm… interestingly, I might favor hanging paper towels so that they hang flush with the wall.

Maybe I should consider this debate when purchasing toilet roll holders. Does this decision also include how to hang paper towels in the kitchen? We are remodeling the bathrooms.

It's not the most earth shattering disgreement to plague mankind, but those of us who have cats who think playing with shreds of paper is the cat's meow (sorry!) hang TP so that it can't be unrolled from the front. Even though the design looks nicer the other way. Well, if the cat in the house, should you have one, decides to play “unroll the TP” just for giggles, you’ve got a mess on your hands.
