Why the hell would they design it this way?

This frustrating me to the point I posted here. It's a shower caddy that's supposed to sit in a 90 degree corner. Anyone else see the problem? 😡

Jeez, that is a retarded design flaw if I ever seen one. I guess you you snip it off at the base or bend it stright, but why they did that in the first place is beyond me.

[Asker]

Yep... Am thinking the same!!!

[FunkyMonkee]

Can you bend it up or down just enough to make it fit?

[Asker]

That's the plan

[FunkyMonkee]

If it's metal, you could try tapping it a few times with a hammer to flatten it out just enough to make it fit. Maybe put it in a vice and squeeze it a bit flatter.

Because men couldn’t handle the elegance of curves without needing a rectangular handle to grip, so they turned everything into rigid, testosterone-fueled blocks.

I’ve wrestled with that exact design before.

Many of these “corner” caddies are made with:
- Rounded or angled backs so they fit a range of corner sizes and wall irregularities.
- Straight bottoms, which actually touch only at one small point in a true 90° corner, making them wobble.

Manufacturers prioritize universal fit, stackability in packaging, and cheap production over perfect geometry.

Practical fixes I’ve used:
- Add clear rubber bumpers on the back edges.
- Use adhesive strips or corner brackets to stabilize it.

You’re not crazy—the design really is flawed for an actual 90° corner.

Who knows, it's a mystery...

Wft is it? Couldn’t include details?

It's a corner shower caddy but that bottom part protrudes so it won't actually stick into the corner. The bottom white part no idea.
