How to choose the best shower caddy?
First things first. What kind of shower do you have? An over the shower head caddy works best for a small shower space. If you have a shower within a bathtub, we recommend a corner unit either with suction cups for easy installation. The best option for a shared shower space with multiple family members is a unit with four shelves that are adjustable in height.
Aren’t all shower caddies the same?
It’s important to consider who is using this caddy. Adults will have no problem reaching items in a unit that goes over the shower head, or a shelf attached to the wall. Children will need a unit that has shelves at a suitable height like the SONGMICS Constant Tension Shower Caddy or their own shelf attached to the wall at the appropriate height.
Do I really need a shower caddy?
If the product line-up in your shower exceeds four items, then yes, you need a shower caddy. Water can accumulate under your bottles. A shower caddy allows for drainage and ventilation. Many offer hooks for bath accessories and holder for razors which helps extend the lifespan of your blade.
Does a shower caddy interfere with cleaning?
Most of the shower caddies we reviewed are removable. Over the shower head caddies allow for the easiest removal for cleaning.
What is the lifespan of a shower caddy?
With proper care and cleaning, a shower caddy should last for several years. Many of the units we reviewed, like the Trustlife Bathroom Shower Corner Caddy, come with adhesive or suction cups with a five year guarantee and include additional adhesive or suction cups for extended use.
Do I need to worry about rust?
We’ve taken careful consideration to highlight shower caddies for your bathroom designed with materials that will not rust. Always look for a unit made with chrome, stainless-steel, or satin nickel.
How do I know where to place my shower caddy?
Corner units and over the shower head caddies are designed to be placed out of the direct spray of the shower. When placing a shelf with suction cups or an adhesive sticker, it’s important to consider where your showerhead is pointing. Avoid placement in the direct stream of water. This will also ensure the unit stays attached to the wall.
Will my shower hose get in the way?
Shower caddy design has evolved to enhance contemporary shower head design. This includes units that work with a shower hose, like the Zenna Home Expandable Over-The-Shower Caddy. The baskets extend to accommodate any size of shower hose.
