"My toddler was going through a phase of hating the bath and this has completely transformed bath time for us!"
Bath Buddy fits most standard UK baths. Check the compatibility guide below to see if yours will work. Still not sure? Email a photo to hello@bathbuddy.co.uk before ordering - we'll confirm within 24 hours. 30 day return guarantee if it doesn't fit.
Yes! Bath Buddy is extremely sturdy for storing toys and bath essentials. The 10 industrial-strength suction cups hold securely when installed properly. However, do not lean, climb, kneel or sit on the shelf. Always test suction before each use and supervise children.
UK orders ship via Evri tracked delivery in 2–5 business days. Bundles ship FREE.
30 day return policy.
We know Bath Buddy isn't cheap - and that's because it's not cheaply made. It's built from high-quality, durable plastic with 10 industrial-strength suction cups, designed to last through daily toddler chaos. We're a small, female-owned UK business - we invested in custom tooling and everything is packed locally. At £39, it works out to just 11p per bath over a year (but it will last for many, many more!). If it saves you even 5 minutes of mopping per bath, and relentless floor damage, it pays for itself in time alone. Still not sure? We offer 30 day returns - but chances are, you'll keep it.
It's Not Just for Kids
One Shelf. Everyone Uses It.
Kids use it for play. Parents use it to survive. Grandparents use it for storage. It's the shelf your bath should've come with.
The Car Wash
Line them up, drive through, park to dry. The floor game — in the bath.
"My son loves to play car wash in the bath" — Fenella
Kids 3-7
The Potion Lab
Mixing colours, pouring between cups, adding "secret ingredients." Science play that keeps them in for 20+ minutes.
"The kids make potions, play cafe and serve us drinks" — Kelly H
Kids 2-5
The Wine O'Clock Shelf
Some parents use it for tea. Some use it for wine. We don't ask questions. We just make shelves.
"It doubles as a great mumma tool — wine glass and tablet!" — Laura B
Parents (after 6pm)
The Barbie Spa
Hair salon, pool party, fashion show. Barbies finally have a poolside that isn't the toilet lid.
"My daughter lines up all her Barbies on it like a spa day. She's obsessed." — Amy T
Kids 4-7
The Car Ramp
Line up the cars at the top, let go, and watch them launch into the water. It's the Hot Wheels track you never had to build — and it keeps them busy for ages.
"My son sets up his cars along the shelf and races them into the bath over and over. Best thing we've bought him." — Sean N
Kids aged 2-7
The Storage Shelf
Shampoos, soaps, bath bombs — between bath times it doubles as extra bathroom storage. Some customers are adults with zero kids.
"I don't even have kids! I just wanted somewhere to put my stuff. It's brilliant." — Laura M
Everyone
The Tea Party
Cups, saucers, teapots — all lined up on the shelf instead of sinking to the bottom. It turns the bath into a proper little cafe. Keeps them pouring, stirring and serving for ages.
"They set up their tea party on the shelf every single bath time. It's their favourite thing, she even makes me a cuppa!" — Jess W

THE REAL COST OF BATH TIME
Why Parents Switch to Bath Buddy
💷 What Parents Try First
Flannels on the floor: £5 (still soaked). Cheap silicone shelves from Amazon: £12 (flop over, slide off, last a month). Water damage to laminate or wood floors: £hundreds. Giving up and just accepting the mess: free (but soul-destroying)."
🛁 Bath Buddy: Less Than a Takeaway
£39.95 ÷ 365 baths = ~11p per bath. Custom injection-moulded rigid polypropylene. 10 industrial screw-in suction cups. Lifetime durability guarantee included. Still cheaper than the chiropractor from all that mopping.
Questions
The Stuff Everyone Asks
Yes! Bath Buddy is extremely sturdy for storing toys and bath essentials. The 10 industrial-strength suction cups hold securely when used on a compatible bath. However, we do not advise to lean, climb, kneel or sit on the shelf. Always test suction before each use and supervise children.
Either! Most parents leave it on between baths. To remove, just peel back one suction cup and the whole shelf lifts off in 2 seconds. To reattach: press down, 5 seconds, done.
Ages 2 and up. Toddlers use it for potion play and cars, older kids use it for Barbies, tea parties, and science experiments. Parents use it for wine, iPads, and candles. It genuinely grows with the family.

No - it has built-in drainage. Water runs straight back into the bath, so nothing sits in puddles and nothing goes mouldy.
*To install (5 seconds):*
1. Clean your bath rim with a dry cloth
2. Press each suction cup firmly onto the rim
3. Test the hold by gently pulling - it should feel secure
*To remove (2 seconds):*
Simply lift the release tab on each suction cup to break the seal.
*Top tip:* Always test the suction strength before every bath, and make sure the rim is clean and dry for the strongest hold.

"I made this because I was sick of mopping."
I'm Emilia, 27, from Cheshire. I designed Bath Buddy because I was genuinely sick of mopping my bathroom floor every single night. I tried towel barricades, I tried cheap bath shelves that fell apart, I tried just... giving up. Nothing worked. So I designed something that would. Custom injection-moulded from the same material used in car parts, with screw-in industrial suction cups that actually hold. Now over 3,500 families use it — and 97% keep it. One mum told me her toddler went from hating baths to asking for one every evening. That's why I do this.
