We put one up a few days ago, and it's still up so far! Still early days though ....

As supplied they stick up about 6 weeks, Copydex themselves recommend removing and cleaning regularly. However, this drove me mad so eventually I ran a thin seal of clear silicon round the edge to stop water/soap getting under sucker( between the chrome trim & wall). So far, touch wood, it has stayed up for 12 months.

I also have a Croydex 2 part twist & lock - it does stay fixed to the tiles but, as already stated, they advise re-fixing it every few weeks. Of course I always forget until I hear the loud clatter as the baskets & contents fall into the bath:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Apparently you can buy ones with an indicator which shows when they're starting to loosen though I can't remember the brand.

I bought one but took it back because our tiles aren't flat, so it wouldn't work. I thought they were but they aren't flat enough.

Like chalkysoil I had to take mine back because my tiles aren't completely flat.:(

We have the loo roll holder. It does come off occasionally but it is so easy to put back it is not a problem. Not so sure if I'd be happy with a soap dish falling off though...........

I have the shower organiser & toothbrush holder. They are currently at the bottom of my laundry bin because everytime the bathroom gets steamy they fall off! I just got annoyed in the end and gave up! I had them stuck to glass so I dont know if they only work on tiles? I have mosaic tiles so they defo wont stick to them

I struggled with twist and lock accessories for ages, got seriously !!!!ed of with them falling off and also not working on my riven slate tiles, then a couple of weeks ago at the caravan show I found the answer, they are called "never drill again" . I bought a toilet roll holder, fitted it, and it us genius!!!! I have since ordered and fitted a grab bar and a shower caddy! Honestly, this is the answer if you don't either want or need to drill anything - I think the website is neverdrillagain.co.uk off the top of my head

I bought a twist and lock caddy from a large diy superstore but our tiles aren't glossy so it won't stick :mad:.

These look good but how do they work? A little bit pricey but I suppose if you have organisation and convenience in the shower it may be worth it.

I've got a shower pod, which is smooth plastic and should be the ideal surface and it is, for between 1 hour and 6 weeks, at which point I have to collect all the items in the shower caddy, put the damn thing back up and then put everything back.
