Designs commonly use a weighted or heavy base and raised feet to improve stability and keep the roll elevated off the bathroom floor.
They attach by pressing strong suction pads onto a smooth surface—no drilling required—making them useful for renters, temporary bathrooms, and small or short-term installations.

Some holders have a curved rod end to stop the roll from sliding off; raised or weighted bases are also used to keep the unit steady when pulling paper.
