This Is the Most Asked About Item In My Kitchen — and the Smallest

I get bored very easily with decor and room arrangements and I’m constantly looking for simple ways to switch up the vibes in our home. As an organizing and cleaning editor, I especially love it when I get to swap in new finds that look good and add function to my space. I always like to start with my kitchen, as it’s one of the easiest rooms to update with little effort and budget. I like to swap out the accessories and wall decor just to keep it interesting and not spend too much money.

During a recent kitchen update, I found myself looking for a new sink caddy — specifically for our sponges. The one we had was warped, covered in hard water stains, and truly on its way out. I decided to give the fan-favoritesimplehuman Slim Sink Caddya try and I’ve been obsessed with it since I took it out of the box.

I’ve dated a lot of trendy kitchen tools and accessories over the years, and it hasn’t always led to a long-term relationship. I’m here to tell you, though, that this helpful sink caddy has a permanent place in my heart and my kitchen. (It also took home the award for Best Sink Caddy in our first-everOrganization Awards.)

This caddy is such a smart solution for storing kitchen sponges with ease. It fits conveniently inside the你的水槽to help store your dish and cleaning sponges neatly andtakes up very little counter space. It’s designed with a super-sturdy hanging mount with four suction cups that help you easily secure it to your kitchen sink. The fit is so secure that ours hasn’t moved an inch since we installed it months ago.

It also comes with ventilation holes and elevated storage for faster drying, because nobody — and I mean nobody — likes a smelly dish sponge just hanging around the kitchen. Our kitchen sponges dry twice as fast in their new home, and I don’t have to wipe up any little water pools around our sink hardware or soap dish anymore. The caddy’s brushed stainless steel finish makes it super easy to keep clean and sparkly too.

While the slim sink caddy takes up very little space, it holds everything you need handy when you’re washing dishes. I have loaded ours up with four of ourgo-to mildew-free spongesat a time, or one sponge and a small or medium dish brush. They all fit perfectly and conveniently. Having them resting right inside the sink makes it so easy to grab them when I need them without making a wet counter mess.

The most-asked-about item in my kitchen used to be the multi-purposemagnetic spice rack I snagged on Amazon, but these days everyone just wants to know where I got my sink caddy from. It’s truly a gem, especially for under $20, that anyone who wants to make dishwashing time just that much more convenient and stress-free will also love.
