Castle Tower vs Castle Ruins Paper Towel Holders: Which Style Fits Your Counter?

Choose the full Castle Tower if you want a continuous tower shape around the roll. Choose Castle Ruins if you prefer a stepped, open wall with more of the paper visible. Both are freestanding PETG holders with a center spindle, so the main verified difference is the shape around the roll.

Full tower: a tall wall & vertical opening

Original product photo: the full tower wraps around the roll & has a vertical opening for the loose end. Paper towel roll is not included.

The Castle Tower Paper Towel Holder has brick-pattern walls & a battlement rim. Its full-height wall surrounds the roll. Pick this version if the uninterrupted tower outline is the look you want on the counter.

Ruins: a stepped opening

Original product photo: the ruins version exposes more of the roll through its stepped wall. Paper towel roll is not included.

The Castle Ruins Paper Towel Holder uses curved brick-pattern walls with a stepped ruined-wall opening. More of the roll remains visible beside the lower section. Choose it if you prefer that open outline to the full tower.

Will your paper towel roll fit?

The original photos show rolls in both holders. They do not establish compatibility with every brand or jumbo roll. Maximum roll diameter, usable spindle height & inside clearance have not been verified for this guide.

Before ordering for a particular roll, measure its diameter, height & core opening, then ask Lexar Prints to confirm those measurements against the holder. Also check the counter space & overhead clearance where you plan to replace rolls. No one-handed tearing or non-slip performance test is claimed for either design.

Care & what you receive

Each listing is for the physical holder only. Paper towel rolls & other props are not included. Visible print layers & small surface variations are part of the finish.

Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Keep either holder away from stovetops, open flame & high heat. No dishwasher-safe or food-safe claim is made for these PETG prints.
