In this article, I want to talk about 9 toilet and bathroom accessories I can’t do without. These accessories are very important, and I deem them necessary for the proper working of any home.
I say this because the toilet and bathroom areas in a home are one of the most important and essential areas of the home, apart from the kitchen.
It not only needs to look good, it’s essential that it’s clean, tidy and hygienic. I recommend the following accessories, because they’ll help you do just that.
They’ll help you keep your toilet areas clean, tidy, hygienic and functional. I recommend them because I use them myself.
Here is the first one.
White Caulk Tape for Bathtub, Toilet and Sink
This one is especially important if you move into a new home, an apartment in a building, you’re not the owner, and you find tiny cracks or space between the toilet, sink or bathtub base and the floor where water seeps in and just remains there, causing smells and odor in the bathroom or toilet area.
This white caulk tape will help you seal that gap even though you’re not a professional handyman, a plumber or remodeller.
Just get one of these and seal the gap. It’s just like any other type of tape. But it’s a bit thicker. Make sure the area you’re applying it on is dry before the application. Once applied, it will dry up, harden and seal up any gap or cracks and prevent water from seeping under your bathroom fixtures.
Electric Toilet Plunger
Toilet clogs are always a hassle and a huge inconvenience when they happen. For some households, it happens quite regularly, and you have to deal with them nonetheless.
If you’re someone in this situation, I recommend you ditch the regular manual toilet plunger, and get one of these electric ones, like the one shown above.
It will change your life, I promise you. It will take out all the manual effort of pumping with the regular one, which may not even work.
This one is an electric battery-powered toilet plunger. Get it pressured, and all you need to do is press a button, and it will release about 5 bars of pressure to push out whatever is clogging your toilet.
This is the most powerful plunger I have ever used. Nothing else comes close.
Bidet Attachment for Toilet Seat
This is a very simple but highly effective bidet attachment you can install on any toilet seat.
I’ve tested it. It works on any toilet seat. And it’s very easy to install. It’s a very simple plug-and-play solution.
This is another important toilet accessory that I believe will also change your life and totally transform the way you use your toilet. Especially for people who for some unknown reasons can’t use their hands, or people who need assistance in the toilet.
This simple bidet attachment is the solution you need. And the beautiful thing is that it’s very affordable. You’re not buying a new toilet. You’re simply getting a very affordable attachment to add to the one you already have.

Electric Spin Scrubber
The electric spin scrubber is for your bathroom and toilet walls. Gone are the days when you scrub with your hands and elbows. You get tired easily, especially when you’re cleaning a big bathroom.
This electric spin scrubber takes all the work from your hands and muscles. All you need to do is turn it on and direct it to wherever you want to clean.
It will reduce the amount of physical effort you expend and cut down the time you spend cleaning the floors and walls of your bathroom.
It’s electric, but it’s battery-powered. So no worries about electric shock. I’ve used it, and I fully recommend it.
Suction Mount Bathroom Razor Holder
This is a suction mount razor holder you can install in your toilet or bathroom. You don’t need to drill holes or anything on the walls. It has a simple suction mount behind it. Simply stick it against a clean vertical tile on your bathroom wall, and it will hold.
It comes in many colors including gold, silver, black and even white. It looks great and it’s minimalistic.
When you’re done using your razor or shaving stick, you hang it on the razor holder, and you can use it whenever you need it again.
It’s a dedicated mount for you to store the razor you’re currently using in the bathroom.
Apart from holding your razor, the hook on it can also hold your towels, your body sponge or any other thing that can be hung on it.
Shower / Bathtub Drain Hair Catcher
Hair getting into your drain is never a good idea. When you bathe, hair from your head (especially if you have long hair) gets into the drain.
That causes a lot of problems for you. If enough hair gets into the drain, it can clog your pipes, because hair doesn’t just flow straight into the sewers. Some get stuck in the pipes. And as more and more gets stuck in there, it will clog up.
And guess what happens next? Smells and odors coming from the drain. Even if it’s not clogged yet, as long as there is hair going into your drain, they get trapped in there and cause smells and odors.
That’s why a drain hair catcher like the one shown above is a very important bathroom accessory you should have. Place it over the bathroom or bathtub drain, and it will catch and stop any hair from going into the drain when you use the bathroom or bathtub.
Toilet Crevice Brush
Still talking about smells in the bathroom or toilet, you might wash and clean your bathroom/toilet all the time, but there are certain small crevices in there that your regular cleaning doesn’t get to.
And that’s what causes many toilets and bathrooms to smell even though their owners will tell you that they wash and clean them regularly.
The tight narrow crevices in your toilet seat, windows, bathtubs, and glass doors you can’t reach with your regular brushes. That’s what causes the smells and odors.
That is why I use this toilet crevice brush when cleaning my toilet. Especially for the tight areas around the toilet seat, bathtub and even the sink.
Waterproof Shower Phone Holder
If for some reason you like using your phone in the bathroom especially when showering, this waterproof shower phone holder will help you a lot.
It’s very good. I’ve tested this particular one, and it works great. It’s also very easy to mount on the wall tiles. Place your phone inside, close it up, and you can still operate it even though there’s water spraying everywhere in the bathroom. It’s fully waterproof.
Toothpaste Squeezer
A lot of people squeeze their toothpaste out of the tube onto their toothbrush by hand. But trust me, there’s no fun in that.
Apart from it not looking cool, it’s quite messy. The tube is usually all over the place on top of the sink, the shower caddy, the storage organizer or wherever you put it.
This toothpaste squeezer gives you a dedicated holder and stand for your toothpaste, and also helps you squeeze out the toothpaste from the bottom of the tube neatly and uniformly.
I like it very much, and I recommend it. It’s made out of stainless steel, not ordinary plastic. This thing will last for a very long time, unless you misplace it or something else happens to it.
