The Murlong Smiley Face Sink Caddy is a lightweight sponge holder designed for internal sink mounting. It is manufactured using 0.8mm injection-molded polypropylene, a material known for being chemically non-reactive to standard dish soaps and acidic cleaners. The "smiley" cutouts are not just aesthetic; they serve as functional ventilation ports that promote high airflow, which helps sponges dry quickly and prevents the development of odors.
The unit attaches to the sink wall via dual 25mm PVC suction cups. For the most secure hold, these should be applied to completely smooth, non-porous surfaces like polished stainless steel or glazed ceramic. On textured or porous stone, the suction may lose its vacuum seal more rapidly. Specifications indicate the unit is best suited for a single dry sponge or a light scrubbing pad, as the plastic arch has a load limit of approximately 250g.
- The compact design saves significant counter space by keeping cleaning tools inside the basin.
- The open-air architecture allows water to drain directly into the sink, eliminating the need for a drip tray.
- The polypropylene material is resistant to heat up to 60°C, though exposure to boiling water should be avoided to prevent deformation.
This caddy is a straightforward tool for those who prefer a "zero-countertop" look. Because the plastic is thin, care should be taken not to overload the unit with heavy-duty scouring pads or soap-filled brushes, which could lead to micro-fractures in the plastic frame.
If you require a sturdier, freestanding option that can hold multiple heavy bottles and brushes, the Cisily Black Kitchen Sink Organizer and Caddy provides a more robust steel alternative.
