Edit: I have marked this as expired because Hobart has none left and whilst still available online I suspect most other stores have sold out.

Picked one of these up at my local (Hobart) Officeworks this evening, there was a stack near the checkout.

Figured it would be OK for the garage/shed.

Comes with a key and mounting kit(screws + plastic anchors)

Build quality seems pretty good, box says made in Germany.

Your local Officeworks may have lots or none!

Note: doesn't come with towels, need to purchase separately.

Modern design dispesner creates a high image look for your washroom interior. Easy to refill and slim attractive and space saving

    might make a nice case for some project I guess, but the towels are not cheap, and the towels tend to fall out on many of this type of dispenser

    [edit] plus its showing out of stock (ow clearance, what else)

      Yeah stock quantities for clearance items never seem to show for store pickup, I know someone else grabbed 2 after me and I'm actually tempted to go and get another one tomorrow.

      Regarding the towels falling out, the bottom of this setup seems better than most, looks like the top of a tissue box, ie rectangular towel coming out a smaller oval hole.

      I brought a box of H4 towels packs that were also on special for 75cents per pack (down from $6-$7?), they are about 10mm too wide, I'll be trimming each pack with the circular saw to fit, why? because cheap.

        Love your OzB spirit.

        Love it, will do the same. Heading into HBA store in the morning. Cheers OP.

      Buy two. Install one with towels in it. Install another one next to it but upside down as a bin.

  • quarrymaster on 04/04/2014 - 21:47

    $162??? Surely that was way overinflated.

    • koolstik on 04/04/2014 - 21:58

      That's the original price on the ticket, I have no doubt it was way over priced.

      However I have worked for some businesses before who would pay that kind of money for stuff like that :S

    I can confirm there is no towel dispenser of any kind in stock @ Browns Plains OW.

  • Chroma on 04/04/2014 - 22:00

    It's tempting but where would one find aluminium hand towels to refill it?

  • Abbycat on 05/04/2014 - 00:41

    Stock up on the towels if they have any, and remember which one your dispenser takes. I'm an ex-employee & was often trying to chase up towels for discontinued dispensers. It was quite a headache when people didn't know which dispenser they had, or which towel it took ("it's a white one" is not very helpful). There is also a good chance officeworks will discontinue the towels unless they are common ones used by another dispenser. They frequently sold out of popular sizes too, thanks to the (not so) awesome automated ordering system.

    • Speedz on 05/04/2014 - 00:48

      Just get your own ABN and buy the towels from the suppliers in bulk, get a box of 12 this should last you quite a while and cheaper than purchasing it from OW.

  • IVI on 05/04/2014 - 06:06

    So, which size / brand towels is one locking themselves into by saving $xx?

    (The razor blade game: razor nearly free, but bring costly need to buy blades

    The solid-fuel-rod game: sell the nuclear plant at cost, locking-in buyer to very costly fuel-rod purchases.

    Dated workaround: Canadian CANDU reactors don't need fuel-rods

    Solution: Energy from Thorium, in Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactors, as recently mentioned in CSIRO's eBook: "The Curious Country" - from a prev OzB deal.)
