Cleaning caddies have a fairly standard shape with a handle in the middle surrounded by storage compartments.

Furthermore, the caddie boasts four compartments, including one large compartment on one side of the non-slip handle and three smaller compartments on the other side. Finally, the durable plastic is easy to clean and is stain and mold-resistant.
