Setup and Installation
No tools are needed for the assembly and installation of your simplehuman Tension Pole Shower Caddy.
- Assemble the Pole: Connect the pole sections. The pole extends from 6 to 9 feet to fit most showers and bathtubs.
- Position the Caddy: Place the caddy in a corner of your shower or bathtub. Ensure the rubber feet on both ends of the pole are firmly against the floor and ceiling.
- Secure the Pole: The reinforced aluminum pole features a high-compression spring. Extend the pole until it fits securely between your floor and ceiling. The spring mechanism will hold it firmly in place.
- Attach Shelves: The three adjustable wire-frame shelves slide up and down the aluminum pole. To adjust a shelf, locate the tab on the shelf's collar, pull it out, slide the shelf to your desired height, and release the tab to lock it in place.
- Utilize Accessories: The caddy includes a towel hanger and convenient storage hooks. These can be clipped anywhere along the aluminum pole to hold washcloths, razors, loofahs, or toothbrushes.

Operating Instructions
- Adjusting Shelves: To reposition a shelf, gently pull the small tab located on the side of the shelf's mounting collar. While holding the tab, slide the shelf up or down the pole to your desired height. Release the tab to lock the shelf firmly in place.
- Quick Dispensing: Some shelves feature special cut-out holes designed to allow you to store bottles upside-down, facilitating quick and easy dispensing of liquids.
- Using Hooks and Hangers: The towel hanger and accessory hooks can be attached to the pole at any height. Rotate them as needed for convenient access to washcloths, razors, or other items.
Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your simplehuman shower caddy:
- Cleaning: Wipe the caddy with a dry cloth regularly to remove soap scum and water spots. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth, then rinse thoroughly and dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
- Rust Prevention: The caddy is constructed from rust-proof stainless steel and anodized aluminum. However, to maintain its condition, ensure proper ventilation in your shower area and regularly dry any standing water on the shelves.

Troubleshooting
- Caddy feels unstable: Ensure the tension pole is fully extended and the high-compression spring is engaged. The rubber feet should be firmly pressed against both the floor and ceiling. Adjust the pole length if necessary to achieve maximum tension.
- Shelves slide down: Check that the adjustment tabs on the shelves are fully released and locked into position after setting the desired height. If the shelves are overloaded, reduce the weight.
- Difficulty adjusting shelves: Ensure the tab is fully pulled out before attempting to slide the shelf. If there is resistance, gently wiggle the shelf while holding the tab.
