Benefits of technology

"The invention is a basket tote that can be easily carried and hung on a shower pipe or head for use in a bath room. The basket tote includes a basket and a hanging portion that can be stretched and attached to the basket. The hanging portion has two extending portions that can slide in holes on the basket for easy storage and support. The hanging portion can be completely stored inside the basket when not in use, ensuring mobility and a good look. The hanging portion has hooks that prevent the extending portions from coming off from the basket. The basket tote can comfortably carry personal care articles and be safely hung or mounted on a shower pipe or head."

Problems solved by technology

There has been a problem, in Patent Document 1, that since the storage caddy is made of a wire, and the gripping portion is too long to function as a handle and completely fixed, it is not ideal to carry the personal care articles in the storage caddy even though it may be useful when it is attached to the shower pipe or the shower head.
As for the caddy in Patent Document 2, there is a problem that it cannot be hung or mounted on the shower head or shower pipe because the shape of a handle portion of the caddy is designed only to be carried by a user.
Also, there is another problem that since the handle portion is formed together with a main body of the caddy, it is difficult to adjust its position or height with respect to a user even if the caddy is hung or mounted on the shower head or shower pipe.
