Know before you buy
The Totumo Tissue Box Cover is designed to fit standard rectangular tissue boxes. It is best to remove the tissues from their original cardboard box if the fit is too snug, though most standard rectangular boxes will slide in easily.
Refilling is simple thanks to the slide-out panel mechanism. You can easily remove the base or side panel, insert a fresh box or stack of tissues, and slide the panel back into place.
While the totumo shell is a natural, organic material, it is quite durable when properly inlaid into wood. It is designed for everyday use, though it should be kept away from excessive moisture or direct heat to maintain the integrity of the natural finish.
The cover features a secure slide-out panel at the base. This ensures that the tissue box stays neatly contained and hidden while allowing for easy access when it is time to refill.
To keep the cover looking its best, simply wipe it down with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or polishes, as these can damage the natural wood grain and the texture of the totumo shell.
