kohler k-14444-bn toilet paper holder

I wanted gold - check! I wanted something simple that didn't take up a lot of space in our cramped toilet area - check! I wanted something that guests might think, Oh, I like that - check! I wanted something cheap - big red X. My husband was against it from the start because apparently it goes against all laws of toilet paper. I was afraid the end of the roll might hang down but it doesn't, it takes up a small amount of space, isn't wobbly (yet?), and is easy for my young kids to use. It's stupidly expensive, but I'm trying to ignore that because I do like it a lot.
