Ok I'm going to go in the other
direction to say I have no use for
the little guys as those rolls fit
nicely in my drawer. The big industrial
roll on the other hand is an eyesore
in my kitchen. So, thanks to Donna,
I put in a request with Western
Plastics and they were happy to
sell me the 18" unit, retail. It
arrived today, and I'm very pleased
with my new toy.
A few comments:
- First and foremost, it works every
bit as easily as the linked video
implies. The film is right there
to grab, you pull it out, push down
the top, nice neat cut.
- Cost for the dispenser itself
was $38 + shipping.
- Tube size does not match the typical
Reynolds tube (pictured), so you
need to order wrap from them. Their
price per roll is a few dollars
cheaper than what I pay at a restaurant
supply, so the savings helped offset
shipping cost. You have to buy the
film in 'cases' of two rolls each,
but I figure two 2000' rolls will
make this roughly a once-a-decade
event for me.
- The only negative I have on the
product itself so far is that there
is no way to lock it in the closed
position. My picture is slightly
deceptive as I stuffed a straw to
hold it relatively shut. I plan
to find something that fits just
right to act as wedge when not in
use. Just an aesthetic thing. The
video shows what it looks like normally.
- If you're interested in buying
one, you can contact an extremely
nice lady named Ruth at (800) 442-9727
ext 113 or rsolis@wplastics.com.
She's likely sick of me by now,
but regardless tell her 'foodonastump'
referred you. She'll know who you
mean and won't charge you extra
for mentioning me.
