Abstract

A shower caddy for holding personal care articles including containers of preparations such as shampoo, hair conditioner, lotions, toothpaste and the like, and items such as shavers, toothbrushes and combs, includes a frame having generally vertically disposed structural elements, at least one and preferably two transversely disposed shelves for holding articles, the shelves being attached to the frame at a vertically spaced apart locations, and a mirror pivotably attached to the frame at an intermediate vertical location between the shelves. A tubular collar attached parallel to the frame is has a vertically disposed coaxial bore therethrough that telescopically and rotatably holds the elongated straight, lower shank portion of a hanger rod. The hanger rod has formed in the upper end thereof a planar angled and curved hook which includes a front arch-shaped portion that protrudes upwardly from the shank and has an arcuately curved front upwardly concave opening adaptable to be received by and suspended on a shower water supply pipe that protrudes as an arm from a shower enclosure wall. The hook also has a horizontally disposed arm which protrudes rearwardly from the arch, and a leg which protrudes downwardly from the arm, forming with the shank a rectangularly-shaped upwardly concave opening adapted to be received by and suspended on the horizontally disposed upper edge wall of a shower enclosure panel or door. A thumbscrew received in a threaded hole disposed transversely through a wall of the collar and into the bore thereof is loosenable to enable telescopic adjustment of the height of the hanger rod above the caddy frame, and rotation of the plane of the hook to an orientation parallel to the frame, for suspending the hook from a shower arm, or perpendicular to the frame, for suspending the hook from a shower enclosure panel or door, the thumbscrew being than re-tightened onto the shank of the hanger rod to secure the hook at a desired elevation and angular orientation relative to the frame.
