Using this toilet paper dispenser is easy. Simply open the hood, place a roll of toilet paper on the chrome - plated plastic spindle, and then close the hood. When the paper runs out, just repeat the process. As for maintenance, wipe the stainless - steel surface regularly with a soft, damp cloth to keep it clean and shiny. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the surface. When installing, make sure to mount it securely on a flat and stable wall surface to prevent it from falling. Also, check the spindle regularly to ensure it can hold the toilet paper roll properly.
