Toothbrush Holders - toothbrush, holder
I don't know why I had such a difficult time finding something like this. We have very minimal counter space in the bathroom and wanted a way to hang them inside the medicine cabinet. This product works fine. Do follow their advice and scotch tape the holder into place first to see how your brushes hang. When I first put it up I did this, but the toothbrushes were dry. After I used their tape backing and put it up "for real", we found that my husband's toothbrush slid out of place when it was wet and hung lower than I expected. So then the mirror wouldn't shut, so I had to pull the backing off (which wasn't hard, but left a little mark). I reattached it using the backings from those plastic wall hooks, which works fine and can be easily removed in the future if I need to. Now everything is good - we have two toothbrushes, my husband's razor, and some of my necklaces hanging from it. Somebody else mentioned that if the toothbrushes are turned toward each other, their bristles will touch. It's true, but definitely not a deal breaker for us.

I bought this for a friend who owns a daycare and brushes all of the kids' teeth daily. She had difficulty storing the brushes, so that they wouldn't touch one another and was routinely sanitizing them to avoid spreading germs. She was so excited to receive these and has been using them for almost a year now. The kids can quickly point to their brush and now she doesn't have to replace/sanitize the brushes after one child has a cold. One downside to these is that the adhesive doesn't stick very well and the holder is sometimes pulled from the wall.
I put this on the wall where the kids could get their own tooth brush. Before it was on the sink counter and they could not reach! Now they get it all by themselves, and they can put it away too! So easy to use my two year old has no problem getting his own toothbrush out!!!
This little gadget is so much better than those fancy ceramic toothbrush cups.
The brushes air dry and do not touch each other. It seems much more sanitary than the cups where all the brushes are dripping into each other. No more slimy buildup in the bottom of a cup. A little wipe of the sink for any small drip that might happen. It is small, strong and stays put.
This a simple, but effective product for hanging toothbrushes out of the way inside the medicine cabinet (or anywhere you like).The brushes pop in and out with ease. Another reviewer said the toothbrushes touch each other, but I don't have that problem with our toothbrushes. It was just what I was looking for.
I've been looking for an attractive wall-hanging toothbrush holder. With the low price tag and great reviews, I bought two.
5 stars--holds toothbrushes well
5 stars--sticks to wall well.
5 stars--Versatility--creative uses like keeping PENS or paintbrushes out of the way. Snipping it
apart to hold just a couple of items instead of 4, or putting two next to each other and
holding a lot of items.
3 stars--not so attractive. Not ugly per se... but utilitarian looking. I realize it's designed to
fit IN a medicine cabinet, but we do not have that.
3 stars--and this is my least favorite feature...that they are not spaced enough apart. If you
stick your toothbrush to the right a little, and your hubby's is all the way to the left. Then
your bristles will touch. And with toothbrushes being the most germ-magnetic item in the house,
I want them not to touch.
All this said, I still think it's a very good and inexpensive solution to keeping those toothbrushes up and out of the way.
This product is pure simplicity at its best, and toothbrush holders should have been designed like this a long time ago! Easy to install and no maintenance required, versatile, and easy to use. Toothbrush just snaps into place and sits there until needed, when it pulls easily back out. This is much better than fumbling with brush cases or fixed holes on cup holders. The clips are flexible and durable and automatically clip on and off the toothbrush. Though it is not designed to suspend the weight of a battery powered brush, it does suspend standard toothbrushes very well. It could also be used to secure razors in the shower and such. And with it being made in the USA, the purchase supports our fellow citizens. At such an affordable price, you can't go wrong! Every bathroom should have one or two of these! Everyone with teeth to brush could use one of these! Buy one for everyone you know because it is a unique, inexpensive, practical gift they will appreciate for a long time to come!
That something so seemingly simple could make my sweetheart so happy. He loves this thing. It works as described - keeps his toothbrush and razor in the shower right where he needs them. I recommend it to anyone. - Holder - Toothbrush - Rack - Toothbrush Holder'
