Honestly the PB Jife goes from niche to practical usage. You could use that on a ton of different bottles or containers, not to mention how easy it is to spread with it. I could see it having simple cooking ease of use applications as well.

[@seanhickling7340]

Quick tip: Your existing paper towel holder would work so much better if you put the roll in the correct way. The ball end is what you should use to tear the sheet off.

[@m2pt5]

Came to the comments to say just that - I have a similar one, and the only issue I have is it sliding around a bit.

[@RebelCowboysRVs]

Was about to post the same thing. Roll was on upside down. If it was the other way, and he pulled to the right, the ball would hit when he pulled, making it rip it.

[@Joe___R]

Growing up in Iowa everyone I know simply rolls the corn cobs on top of a stick of butter before salting them. There is no reason to use a knife to butter your corn on the cob but corn holders are nessasary on a full cob.

[@MrMom950]

Came here to say that…. Stick of butter on a plate… roll them puppies on the top of the stick… done

[@TundraZer0]

As an Iowan, that's exactly what I was thinking. Was like, "Who TF uses a knife to butter corn?" xD

[@DB-zr4fr]

I'm willing to bet that since the designers and manufacturers are just trying to make some money, that they also roll their cobs across a stick of butter. Iowans don't have a monopoly on cob-buttering knowledge.

[@compzac]

@@DB-zr4fr True or maybe they just didnt want a rounded off top to the butter sticks, or that the stick would then be "contaminated" by having touched some other food item, their are people that are like that in that they dont like food items mixing or touching.

The PB Jife could be replaced by a slender spatula, which has other uses as well. In fact, with a spatula. I can usually get the inside of a PB jar clean.

[@mdamaged]

8:01 first you have the roll backwards, second the way it works is you're supposed to pull the towel you're pulling on against the ball for one-hand operation.

[@BlameItOnYourFriend]

For the corn on the cob thing I recommend using a fork instead. Since it has a curve and a wide base it basically does the same thing, that is what I always use and it works perfectly.

[@deeferry6520]

I use a buttered slice of bread and wrap it round the corn, then re-butter the bread

[@sickstuff7624]

I have a large family and an entire stick of butter gets absolutely dismantled on corn on the cob night. That thing he was using would be perfect. Everyone could pass it around and there may even be enough of a stick of butter worth saving left over.

[@ryan174133]

I just use the stick of butter like the wrapped ones and just rub it on the corn work great imo and doesn't dirty anything

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

I personally use a dollar store can holder for my soda cans in the fridge, you can stack them, but it's also on a slight incline, so that they roll forward as you use them up. Also, a lot of soda cans come in a case that's designed to hold the cans and dispense them one at a time.

[@spazzwazzle]

ok

[@raychang8648]

True, but my fridge isn't very big. I prefer to gain space every time I remove an item. If your dollar store can holder is working well for you, run with it.

[@Eidolon1andOnly]

The Fridge Monkey also allows for the stacking of bottles and jars.

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

@@raychang8648 This doesn't really get the space back either. I personally put my organizer under the drawer where I can't really fit anything anyways.

[@robertheinkel6225]

My fridge came with a can rack that holds 12 cans, and works well.

[@AnnetteBond]

Your original paper towel holder might work more effectively one-handed if you flip the towel roll over, so that the direction of the sheets unravel against the ball armature when you tear.

[@Juicetheeunuch]

Was thinking the same thing. Seems designed for that. But you know like the direction of toilet paper, some people are used to what their used to.

[@ronarcovio9379]

You used your old paper towel holder backwards. The wire with the ball coming off the end is for one handed operation. flip ur roll and rip from the bottom!! Appreciate your vid's!!

[@laurahubbard6906]

Used the new one wrong , too. One is supposed to tear the towels against the gripper, not in mid-air.

[@neversurrendernevergive-up7988]

I use the Fridge Monkey to stack my shampoos and conditioners. Works awesome. Can be use for bottle paint in craft rooms also.

[@happyfuntimepewpew]

the paper towels will also tear differently depending on their manufacturing process. i’d say the holder performed very well!

[@IRBork]

His old holder probably works fine, he just uses it wrong. He needs to flip the roll so it unravels against that big metal ball. It's there so you can pull the perforation against it and it will tear.

[@supergran62]

The perforations not actually tearing on the end of the sheet is an imperfection in paper making.

[@nathanielmatthews9646]

PB-Jife: "Not good for cold peanut butter." What kind of monster puts their peanut butter in the fridge or keeps it cold? Peanut butter should be kept at room temperature.

I'm that monster. 😋 I buy peanut butter that has 2% sugar and is seperated by oil, so you gotta stir it. Once stirred keep it in the fridge otherwise you'll have to stir it every time you go to get peanut butter.

With the corn and butter... just use a fork. Works just fine.

[@thumbsarehandy.]

If you use a stick of butter on a plate like he used for testing, just roll the corn across the top of the butter stick. The butter is its own applicator! No gadget needed.

[@nicknumber1512]

There is also the Rand Peltzer method, where you butter a slice of bread and then rub it on the corn. It's cheaper than this gadget, and you get to eat some buttery bread afterward.

I've had that OxO paper towel holder for about 5 years now, and it still works great. The base is heavy with a rubber bottom so it doesn't move, and the arm spring hasn't lost any noticeable tension. Absolutely hated spending that much on a paper towel holder, but hated spinning half a roll out of the old one even more.

[@TheRealSmithFamily]

We’ve had the Oxo paper towel holder for a few years and still love it! I ended up buying a couple for work and people there loved it too.

[@rebeccahetrick6576]

Your original paper towel holder is actually better than the one that you are reviewing, you just need to flip the paper towel roll over for it to work correctly. That swirly part that ends with a little ball that sits a couple inches up from the bottom of the paper towel roll is actually there to help you rip a sheet off with just one hand. If you have the paper towels facing the correct way and you rip it from the bottom up, you can use your original paper towel holder one-handed. And also, the quality of paper towel plays a huge role in using these. If you're using brawny or Viva towels, they're going to work much better because those towels are stronger and have better perforations so they rip off easier and they tend to not get that triangle on the bottom like yours did.

[@HeirOfNothingInParticular]

🎯🎯🎯

[@franciscoguzman9802]

I can’t believe he didn’t get how it works! I thought it was a joke.

[@blindwit]

For your old holder: Turn the roll so it's turning the other way... So you're pulling back against that ball on the end of the spiral. I suspect that's how that was intended to be used... A quick pull against the ball should start the tear on the perforation.

[@SquishySenpai]

Anyone else remember the corn buttering device that was plastic and you loaded it with a tablespoon of butter then gradually squeezed the handle as you buttered? They worked so well.

[@thumbsarehandy.]

I believe my parents still have one, from pampered chef in the 90s or early 00s. I don't use any gadget, I just lay the corn across the top of the butter and roll it. The stick of butter is usually just the right length and no gadget needed!

[@SquishySenpai]

@@thumbsarehandy. That's not a bad way to do it if you eat corn on the cob often. But it makes it hard to use that stick later in any kind of measured amount.

[@rmhartman]

I recall plastic dishes, kinda like troughs, that held the corn pretty exactly. we put butter in the bottom of them. no more problem when the butter melts and gets wasted on the plate, because it's still in the dipping tray.

[@nottelling6598]

You need to pull up from the bottom on the old paper towel holder, using the arm to help get the tear started whenever it give you trouble. The arm holds it steady enough that a small twist gets it started. The butter spreader leaves a rounded shape on the outside *with the second cut onwards.* The first cut still has a flat edge on the surface that contacts the corn.

How to butter a cob corn: get a dinner roll, generously apply butter to roll, use roll to butter corn.

[@herbertkeithmiller]

I'm generally against single use gadgets figuring a common knife or something like that can do the job as well. But the PB peanut butter spreader seems to do something only a spatula would do. Get into the corners at the top and bottom. And a spatulal can't spread cold peanut butter that easily. The can stacker is unique doing a job nothing else could. So those two are winners for me.

[@rmhartman]

your spiral holder can do one handed, but it depends upon the direction the roll is mounted. (like the over-the-front vs down-the-back debate for toilet paper) look at the veggie bag dispensers at the grocery store. they have a rounded spike intended to break the dotted line between bags. the end of your spiral arm can serve the same purpose, but only if the towels are feeding the right direction.

Edit: Sorry, unless you were talking about the peanut butter/jelly "jife" thing.

I have been through the wringer with paper towel holders. After trying 2 different types, I found that either the base was not heavy enough, or the roll just unraveled. My son bought me a Kamenstein paper towel holder for Christmas and I am in love. This particular type has an extremely heavy base with a rubber bottom that will NOT walk across my counter, a lip on the base that keeps the towels from unraveling and, best of all, a ratcheting center that allow me to easily get any size towel with one hand. I don't have to violently rip the towel to get it off....I can go super slow, and I get a perfect tear every time. You really need to try one James...remember 1. Kamenstein 2. Super HEAVY base and 3. Ratchet. Not all Kamenstein's are created equal. Oh and one more thing...the very top unscrews for when you are putting on a new roll - Makes it super secure! And it's only around $20.
