Something we don’t think about often is carrying the clean clothes from the laundry room to the closet.

Many people store their brooms, mops, and lightweight vacuums in the laundry room, which is why they need these wall-mount grippers.

Rather than try and squeeze a large item like an ironing board somewhere clumsily, give it a dedicated spot of its own. That way, it will always be easy to pull out without getting in your way. You can use the hangers it comes with to hide it behind the door, or you can hang it on the wall next to the dryer

A great way to keep your countertops clear is with a dryer sheet dispenser. Its magnetic backing means you can simply attach it to your washer or dryer and you’re ready to go!
