Suction Cup Sponge Holder for Sink

Suction Cup Sponge Holder for Inside the Sink
Leave a sponge at the bottom of the sink and it sits in dirty dishwater. Leave it on the counter and you get a puddle. This suction cup sponge holder sticks to the inside wall of the sink and holds the sponge up off the bottom, standing upright so it can drain and dry. It's a sponge holder for sink walls, an in sink sponge holder in the truest sense: it lives right where you wash and takes up no counter space at all.
It's a simple design: one large PVC suction cup and a clear U-shaped arch that holds the sponge on its edge. It also fits a small bar of soap. No drilling, no glue, and it comes in green or red. Your sponge stays out of the dishwater and dries faster.
Where this suction sponge holder sticks
Suction cups need a smooth, flat surface. Here's a quick guide:
- Stainless steel sink: works great. Clean off any grease first.
- Ceramic or porcelain sink: works well on a flat spot, not a curved corner.
- Glass or glazed tile backsplash: stick it in the middle of a tile, not over grout.
- Matte composite or granite sink: sometimes. Test it first.
- Textured tile, wood or painted walls: it won't hold. Try a faucet sink caddy instead.
How to make it stay put
- Wash the spot with dish soap to remove grease, then dry it completely.
- Press the suction cup on firmly for a few seconds.
- Give it a few minutes before loading it with a wet sponge.
If it ever slips, take it off, wash the suction cup in warm water, dry the spot and press it back on. It's sized for a sponge or a small soap bar. A heavy soap bottle will pull it down.
How to keep your sponge clean longer
A sponge that dries between uses grows far fewer germs than one left sitting wet, and that's the whole point of this holder. Squeeze the sponge out after washing up and stand it in the holder. Once or twice a week, soak it in hot water with a little bleach or run it through the dishwasher, and replace it when it starts to smell.
