Shower caddies with adjustable baskets

1. A shower caddy assembly comprising:

a vertical support structure comprising a first and a second vertical support rod, wherein the first and second rods are generally parallel to each other and spaced apart to define an opening there between;

at least one basket comprising at least one horizontal basket support rod; and

an adjustment mechanism comprising a generally planar front plate, a generally planar rear plate, and a draw fastener,

wherein the draw fastener is threadingly engaged with the rear plate;

wherein the front plate and the rear plate each span across the opening; wherein the first and second support rods are each clamped between the first and second plates;

wherein the front plate comprises an upper distal edge, a lower distal edge opposite the upper distal edge, a planar upper front facing portion and a planar central front facing portion; wherein at least one horizontal guide channel is formed in the front plate;

wherein the upper front facing portion is above the at least one horizontal guide channel and the central front facing portion is below the at least one horizontal guide channel; wherein the upper front facing portion is in a plane parallel with a plane of the central front facing portion;

wherein the front and rear plates are slidably adjustable vertically along the first and second vertical support rods, and the at least one horizontal basket support rod is slidable horizontally within the at least one horizontal guide channel of the front plate while abutting the first and second vertical support rods.

2. The shower caddy assembly of claim 1 , wherein the rear plate comprises first and second vertical guide channels slidably receiving the first and second vertical support rods.

3. The shower caddy assembly of claim 1 , wherein the front and rear plates comprise first opposing vertical guide channels slidably receiving the first vertical support rod, and second opposing vertical guide channels slidably receiving the second vertical support rod.

4. The shower caddy assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one horizontal basket support rod comprises an upper horizontal basket support rod and a lower horizontal basket support rod.

5. The shower caddy assembly of claim 4 , wherein the at least one horizontal guide channel comprises a first horizontal guide channel slidably receiving the upper horizontal basket support rod, and a second horizontal guide channel slidably receiving the lower horizontal basket support rod.

6. The shower caddy assembly of claim 4 , wherein the at least one horizontal guide channel comprises a first horizontal guide channel slidably receiving the upper horizontal basket support rod and a second horizontal guide channel slidably receiving the lower horizontal basket support rod, and the front and rear plates comprise first opposing vertical guide channels slidably receiving the first vertical support rod and second opposing vertical guide channels slidably receiving the second vertical support rod.

7. The shower caddy assembly of claim 6 , wherein the first and second horizontal guide channels have a depth D H measured in a direction perpendicular to a planar surface of the front plate of from 0.1 to 0.8 inch.

8. The shower caddy assembly of claim 7 , wherein the depth D H of the first and second horizontal guide channels is from 80 to 180 percent of a diameter of the upper and lower horizontal basket support rods.

9. The shower caddy assembly of claim 6 , wherein the first and second vertical guide channels of the front plate have a depth D V measured in a direction perpendicular to a planar surface of the front plate of from 0.01 to 0.5 inch.

10. The shower caddy assembly of claim 9 , wherein the first and second vertical guide channels of the back plate have a depth D′ V measured in a direction perpendicular to a planar surface of the back plate of from 0.01 to 0.5 inch.

11. The shower caddy assembly of claim 10 , wherein the depths D V of the first and second vertical guide channels of the front plate are equal to the depths D′ V of the first and second vertical guide channels of the back plate.

12. The shower caddy assembly of claim 4 , wherein each of the first and second vertical support rods contacts each of the first and second horizontal basket support rods when the draw fastener is tightened.

13. The shower caddy assembly of claim 12 , wherein the draw fastener is centrally located between contact points at which the vertical support rods contact the horizontal basket support rods.

14. The shower caddy assembly of claim 1 , wherein the draw fastener comprises a knob threadably engaged with the back plate.

15. The shower caddy assembly of claim 1 , wherein the draw fastener comprises an internally threaded knob threadingly engaged with a threaded stud extending from the back plate.

16. The shower caddy assembly of claim 1 , wherein the threaded stud extends through a hole in the front plate, and the knob contacts a front face of the front plate.

17. The shower caddy assembly of claim 1 , comprising at least two of the baskets.

18. The shower caddy assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a tilt-resisting support hook comprising an upper pipe engaging portion and a lower portion coupled to the vertical support structure.

19. The shower caddy assembly of claim 18 , wherein the upper pipe engaging portion of the tilt-resisting support hook comprises a resilient liner positioned along at least a portion of an interior surface of the upper pipe engaging portion, and at least one threaded fastener hole structured and arranged to receive a threaded fastener.

20. The shower caddy assembly of claim 18 , wherein the upper pipe engaging portion is generally U-shaped with downwardly extending side legs, each side leg comprises a threaded fastener hole receiving a threaded fastener, and each threaded fastener comprises an end contacting a resilient liner positioned along at least a portion of an interior surface of the upper pipe engaging portion.
