Review on 🚿 Umbra Barrel Shower Caddy 11.18 x 33.53 x 64.26 cm - Organize Your Shower Essentials with Style! by Meg Manzanares

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Wet soap will stick to the wood and harden, but there is still hope!

Looks very nice. And it's the perfect size for what I need since I use soaps and shampoos, not bottles. But unfortunately, all soaps stick to the wood so tightly after they get wet and as they dry that it's almost impossible to separate them. So I figured if I could add some gloss varnish to the wood it would help. It seems so but I applied the 3rd coat of this material and am still having trouble sticking to wood with some soaps. When that last layer doesn't work, I look for another shower stall that works for me. ARG! Why not build a beautiful shower stall out of wood and, knowing that the soap will stick, do something during production to make sure this isn't a problem? triple thick polyurethane spray and the last coat I applied I applied very thick so there were bubbles etc. I applied the first two coats much lighter. My rating went up to a 3.5, but only because I had to go through all that nonsense to keep soaps and shampoos from sticking to the surface. Beach balls and kata at the same time! Bonus. So the sticking of soap to wood after use was released.

Pros
  • EASY INSTALLATION: Aquala's universal mounting hook allows for quick, tool-free installation; Its suction cups provide extra stability to securely attach the product to the wall.
Cons
