Shower caddies for every need: choose the model that suits you best

Every time we get into the shower it's nice to have all our products readily to hand. Groping around for a bottle of shampoo, or a dropped bar of slippery soap, for example, is not an experience any of us want. So, finding the right shower caddy for our products becomes important. And if this caddy is aesthetically beautiful too, so much the better. Below, we take a look at a number of different models of shower caddies you can perhaps consider using:

Perhaps the best known caddie type is the rod with several shelves attached to it. The rod is usually adjustable, and is secured against the floor and the ceiling.

There are many different variations of this rod caddy available, but it is always best to choose one that rounded shelves that remain firmly fixed to the rod.

Some corner caddies come with additional fittings too: hooks for hanging objects on and arms for towels, for example.

Don't fancy the rod caddy? Or perhaps you don't use a lot of products? Then, a floor-standing caddy (like the one pictured here) could be for you.

And floor-standing caddy come in versions which can tuck away into the corners of the shower cubicle. The one pictured here has "L"-shaped basket shelves, making it very handy to deploy in small spaces!

If your shower head is fixed, you can consider using a caddy that hooks onto this fixture. Easy to put up, convenient to take off (for cleaning, for example), these caddies are very handy and most are very robust models.

If your shower has a sturdy (and fixed) glass or fiberglass door which is not flush with the ceiling, then you can use the hook-on caddy shown here.This model comes in various colors and has two handy shelves attached to the hooks.

Then, there are caddies that are wall-mounted: these models are compact, spacious and perfect for those who don't use a lot of products in the shower.

Do you have to find space for only a few, light products? Then a shelf or hooks with suction cups will be sufficient, and there will be very little risk of them falling off!
