subject: Which Shower Caddy Is Best For You? [print this page] After reading this, you will agree that the corner shower caddy is the superior design. Have you lived in a really small house or apartment? If you have, you may already be familiar with the corner trick that is taught by interior designers. They say to find furniture that fits well in your corners -- including furniture that is specifically designed for corner usage; for instance, a 2 piece section couch with coffee table. The concept is about utilizing your space effectively and giving the room a larger look about it.
Bathrooms are traditionally small. Even some of the more spacious older homes can have tiny bathrooms, which, of course, means space is limited in the tub and shower areas. Shower caddies, which used to primarily be hung from the shower pipe, and then would be secured to the wall at the bottom with a suction cup, are increasingly being transformed into corner furniture for your personal shower space.
With the advent of the corner shower caddy, instead of doing a balancing act on 1 or 2 tiny trays hanging from the pipe, there are now several larger shelves, on which to place the personal care items you need. Statistics tell us that the room in our homes that has the most danger, is the bathroom. Floors that get wet and hard fixtures made of porcelain have proven to be a deadly mix.
How many times have you been in the shower when you realized that you didn't have everything you needed, and you had to get out and go get it? It's not just aggravating. It's downright dangerous, especially in a bathtub that you have to step over to get in and out.
The beauty of corner shower caddies is how affordable they are and how easy that are to set up. They come mostly assembled and they do not require you to get your handy neighbor to come by and do it for you. You are not going to be staring at a diagram trying to figure out what language it is written in.
You just take the tension pole and place it in the corner. For showers it will go from floor to ceiling. For bathtubs it will sit on the top corner of the tub. You secure it tightly by twisting the pole using the ratcheting mechanism that is built in. Then you will secure the shelves and place your items on your shower caddy.
