Stainless seem unaffordable. Chrome ones rust. Plastic a bit naff.....

stainless steel colander or utensil holder from a kitchen shop (or a
charity shop)
Â*OK chaps. I have what claims to be a stainless twin corner caddy on
order from Amazon. £20.00 so we will see!
Â*Equivalent from John Lewis can be £80.00!


When I did my bathrooms a couple of years back, I had to look long and
hard to find anything decent made from stainless. In the end they were
both from China via Amazon, and to be fair pretty decent quality.
(although one was about £40 IIRC).

A handy tip for fitting the corner ones. If they are two shelf ones,
they often have uprights that can be fitted either behind the trays,
or in front of the trays top rails. Just remember when you mark out
the hole positions that if you decide to go for rails behind option
after marking out using just the tray as a guide, the holes will be in
the wrong place! (DAMHIK)


That sounds similar. Two trays and vertical rails with hooks at the bottom.


Yup, this is one of the ones I used:

I take it the tray goes further into the corner without the rails. I'll
be careful. Thanks.

Indeed. If you use the tray to space the rails from the wall then the
spacing matches the tray - however if you mount the rails against the
wall, then you get the ~4mm offset from the thickness of the rails.
