Abstract
A shower caddy (10) includes a wire portion (11) and a plastic portion (12). The wire portion (11) is formed with upper foot wires (45, 46) to engage grooves (73) in the plastic portion (12) and with a rear support wire (51) to engage lock tabs (74) in the plastic portion (12) so that the plastic portion (12) may be removably carried by the wire portion (11). The wire portion (11) has two spaced apart wires (14,15) interconnected by a loop wire (16) to engage the top of a neck pipe of a shower head. A bracket (17) is engageable with and slidable along the wires (14, 15) to engage the bottom of the neck pipe. The wire portion (11) also includes adjacent spaced-apart shelf wires (35, 36, 37, 38) with two adjacent shelf wires (36, 37) having opposed arcuate portions (41, 42) formed therein to hold a bottle in an inverted position therebetween. The plastic portion (12) includes soap trays (61, 62) formed therein. The soap trays (61, 62) have outwardly flaring side walls (64, 67) and bottom surfaces (65, 68). The bottom surface (68) of the soap tray (62) is sloped upwardly from the rear of the side walls (67) to the front of the side walls (67) so that soap in the soap tray (62) can be readily removed therefrom.
