My kitchen sink was always a mess, but this Joseph Joseph storage caddy instantly solved all my organizational woes – and it's now under $14

When you think of problem areas around your home, does your kitchen sink spring to mind? Mine definitely does – whether it's dripping dish soap, wet sponges, or puddles of splashed water, it's difficult to keep neat, tidy, and clean. It doesn't help that we don't have a dishwasher, either.

So, when I spotted the Joseph Joseph Surface Sink Caddy available at Amazon, ideal for enacting all my kitchen sink organizing rules, I immediately knew I had to invest.

It's sleek, stylish, and most importantly, compact, making it perfect for even the smallest of kitchens, and, therefore, super renter-friendly too.

The Joseph Joseph storage caddy

In my busy household, it can often feel like there is always a pile of dishes by the sink. And, without a dishwasher, we've had to become experts at washing dishes by hand.

However, this does mean having a sink lined with an array of dish scrubbing essentials, such as dish soap, sponges, and brushes. That's why I'll be picking up the Joseph Joseph Surface Sink Caddy available at Amazon to get them organized for good.

It's not every day that a sink caddy gets us excited here at Homes & Gardens, but this one genuinely looks good enough to display as part of any kitchen storage ideas.

I love the sleek look of stainless steel and appreciate how easy it is to clean, too. Plus, with separate compartments for your dish soap, brush (I use the Joseph Joseph Edge Dish Brush available at Amazon, which also features a clever integrated sink rest), and wet sponges and scourers, it's easy to grab exactly what you need, when you need it.

The best part? With this sink caddy, you can wave goodbye to puddles of water and unhygienic, damp-smelling sponges, as a cleverly sloped base allows water to drain out of sight.

You'll still, of course, need to clean your kitchen sponge and keep your cleaning supplies clean, but this should, at least, reduce the regularity. The caddy itself can also be easily dismantled and cleaned by hand.

Like me, Chiana Dickson, content editor on Solved, will also be snapping up this sink caddy, which satisfied customers on Amazon describe as 'attractive,' and 'sturdy,' with a 'nice clean look.' One even notes their 'sink needed this,' writing, 'I saw this in AirBnB and had to get it! Simple but really gives a less cluttered look to kitchen.'

Chiana says, 'I'm always looking for ways to overhaul my kitchen organization, and, like most people, my kitchen sink is a real problem area when it comes to clutter.

'This caddy looks great and, importantly, it's also functional. You could even use it for organizing under the sink, if you prefer to keep everything out of sight.'
