1. iDesign Plastic Portable Shower Caddy Best Overall

With a 4.4 out of 5-star rating and over 3,800 reviews, we’re calling this caddy a must-have for dorm living in 2022. It features two sturdy handles and nine storage compartments to store everything you need—from razors and soap bars to shampoo and conditioner. The real selling point, however, is the durable plastic design, which ensures that your products will stay mold- and mildew-free, all semester long.

2. Attmu Pack of 2 Mesh Shower Caddies Best Value

Otherwise, if you’re looking for something bigger, this set of two quick-drying caddies is the best bang for your buck. It has everything you need, including eight outer compartments, one large center compartment and sturdy reinforced handles that won’t rip or tear. One reviewer writes, “The mesh fabric is also a great weight, and while it feels very sturdy, isn't something that adds a ton of heaviness or weight. It cleans easily, and because it dries to quickly, I haven't noticed any issues with mold or mildew. I also love that the caddy can collapse and fold easily.”

3. Lula Plastic Tub Caddy Best Design

Looking for something that won’t ruin your dorm’s aesthetic? Enter: this chic, rattan-inspired option. It’s made from handwoven plastic on a sturdy iron frame and includes three large compartments that can hold both large and small items. Not to mention how fabulous this guy will look when on display in dorm room (because trust us, you won’t want to leave this guy in the communal bathroom)

4. PBTEEN Recycled Over-the-Shoulder Shower Caddy Best for Product Lovers

Speaking of shared living arrangements, while schlepping to the shower with your shampoo, hair mask, body scrub and skin-care item in tow is a necessary evil, this caddy can make the whole process more manageable. It features sturdy handles for easy hanging, one large interior pocket and six exterior pockets for ample storage. What’s more, it’s made from lightweight, water-resistant and recycled materials, so you can hit the shower in eco-friendly style.

5. LUXEAR Shower Caddy Suction Best Caddy with Suction Cups

Here, something that you can suction to the walls (without it going ‘BOOM’ in the middle of the night). This option features a super-suction basket that can hold up to 22 pounds—and it even has front hooks that you can hang your razors from. Take it from one reviewer who writes, “I've had two of these hanging for nearly two months, one directly above the other. They have hung steadfast....no sliding or drooping to one side, or crashing into the tub. In the top one I have four large bottles of shampoo, condistioner, etc. In the one below, I have a large bottle of shampoo, several smaller bottles of face wash, shave cream, etc. The hooks on the front are also handy for miscellaneous items.”

6. REGER Portable Shower Caddy Bag Best for Travel

Headed home for Thanksgiving? This travel-friendly pick features a collapsible, water-resistant design with an inside hook that allows you to hang it from shower stalls and bathroom doors alike. It also offers tons of storage, including an oversized front compartment, two side pockets and zippered inner and outer pockets that can house all your smaller cosmetics.

7. ALLZONE Tension Rod Shower Caddy Best Multiple Roommates

This rust-proof corner caddy is a life-saver for crammed bathrooms with multiple roommates. It features four metal tiers—which can each hold up to 62 ounces—and adjustable shelves that slide up and down a reinforced steel pole. Plus, each shelf features a ‘safety bar’ which prevents products from sliding off (and makes a great spot to hang that loofah).

8. Umbra Aquala Shower Caddy Best Hanging Caddy

Finally, a caddy you can hang from your showerhead to create ample storage. We love this modern bamboo number for its sturdy metal bars and functional features, including ledges for razors and hooks for other hanging items. Not to mention that it can also be mounted over the bathroom door (in case you need some extra bathroom storage).
