Tools and Hardware Reviews of Tiki Head Tissue Box Cover - Green Face with Black Sides
Customer Review: Fun tissue box cover, but be careful
Summary: 4 Stars
This tissue box is lots fun with being able to pull tissues out of an Easter Island statue's nose! But the danger behind this statue is nothing to sneeze at.
Be careful if you display this vertically as shown in the amazon photo. Whenever someone goes to pull a tissue out, the entire thing tips over very easily. This tissue box is best displayed laying down horizontally, which is a shame, because the real Easter Island heads aren't laying down, they are standing up.
If you really want to stand it up, try putting some strong adhesive tape underneath it to prevent it from falling over while pulling out a tissue. Otherwise you'll have a running nose and a falling tissue box.
Customer Review: Rudy the Tiki Head
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for a Christmas gift for my dad. Target delivered it 2 days ahead of schedule, so don't worry about getting it late.
After it arrived I quickly tore the package open to discover Rudy the Tikihead. (Yes that is this product, they do fail to mention his name on this site). I was completely amazed! He looks as great online as in real life. Having him lay down is no problem whatsoever, as it doesn't look 'odd' or 'strange'. It just looks like a tissue box cover! But, as one of the reviews said, it is possible to put him on a wall.
This is a great product and I know my dad will love it!
Customer Review: Be upstanding
Summary: 4 Stars
My solution to the problem of placing the box upright:
1) Get a plain old stamped metal bookend (basically a piece of thin steel bent at a right angle, causing a kind of "tongue" to extend on one side). Mine is about 4.5" wide and 4.5" high.
2) Place tongue piece between bottom of tissue box and inside bottom of Tiki holder.
3) Set upright. Stand back. Admire.
4. For greater stability, place a can on the part of the bookend that extends out from behind the holder. I'm using Steen's Sugar Syrup, but I imagine canned spinach will work as well. Exercise your creatvity.
Customer Review: Practical whimsy
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of those entertaining little objects that adds a touch of practical whimsy to a guest bathroom. I wall mounted it to take make it easier to pull the tissues out. It does not come with a wall mount solution, but it's pretty easy to fashion a small frame out of wood that mounts on the wall and holds the box in place.
It does not fit large boxes of tissues. Slim boxes (100 or fewer tissues) work best, especially if it is wall mounted.
Looks good, and everyone who sees it wants to get one!
Customer Review: Great Gift for the Guy Who Has Everything!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this "just because" for by brother. He has a beautiful home filled with eclectic items bought home from his various exotic trips around the world. Financially I cannot compete with his objects d' art, but this item hit a home run for him and his wife! The tissue box is heavy, not flimsy. Quality piece; and the toung-in-cheek humor was greatly appreciated! They have placed it in their comfy TV/library room, and enjoy great comments form their guests.
