Product Information

Full details

This 1920s-inspired silver tumbler and holder from Croydex is for homeowners looking to add a touch of art deco elegance and declutter their bathroom sink area. Its key benefit is the innovative Flexi-Fix™ system, offering a no-drill installation option for easy fitting. A potential caveat is that while glue fixing is provided, users might prefer the security of screw fixing which requires existing or new holes.

FAQs

What is the Flexi-Fix™ system?

Flexi-Fix™ is Croydex's patented installation system that offers a choice between screw fixing or glue fixing with high-strength adhesive, making installation easier and more versatile.

Can I use the adhesive fixing on tiled walls?

Yes, the adhesive fixing can be used on tiles provided the tile surface is smooth, clean, dry, and free from grease. Ensure the grout lines are not directly under the adhesive area for maximum stability.

What are the dimensions of the tumbler holder?

The dimensions are approximately 10.2 cm (width) x 14.2 cm (height) x 11.5 cm (depth).

What materials is the tumbler holder made from?

It is constructed from zinc alloy with a chrome-plated finish.

Does it come with a tumbler?

No, the product is for the tumbler holder only. The tumbler is not included.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse and dry thoroughly to maintain the shine and prevent water spots.

Can I reuse the adhesive if I move the holder?

The high-strength adhesive is designed for a permanent or semi-permanent fix. It is not typically designed for reapplication once removed.

Troubleshooting

Holder feels loose after installation

If glue fixing was used, the adhesive may not have fully cured, or the surface was not properly prepared. Ensure the surface was clean, dry, and smooth. If screw fixing was used, ensure screws are tightened securely.

Adhesive is not sticking to the wall

Ensure the wall surface is thoroughly cleaned, degreased, and completely dry before applying the adhesive. Avoid application on dusty, porous, or uneven surfaces without proper preparation.

Chrome finish appears dull or spotted

This is likely due to water residue or soap scum. Clean the holder with a mild detergent and water using a soft cloth, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

Pros and Cons

  • Helps maintain a tidy and organized bathroom sink area.

Cons

  • Glue fixing may not be suitable for heavily tiled or textured surfaces without proper preparation.
  • Screw fixing requires drilling, which may not be desired by all users.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Choose your fixing method: Decide whether to use the provided high-strength adhesive (for a no-drill solution) or screw fix (using new or existing holes).
  2. For Glue Fixing: Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Apply the adhesive as per the adhesive manufacturer's instructions. Press the holder firmly into place and allow adequate drying time before use (refer to adhesive packaging for cure times).
  3. For Screw Fixing: Mark the desired position on the wall. If using existing holes, align the holder. If drilling new holes, use appropriate drill bits for your wall type and insert wall plugs if necessary. Secure the holder using the provided screws.

Compatibility:

  • This tumbler holder is designed to hold standard bathroom tumblers, toothbrushes, and toothpaste.
  • The Flexi-Fix™ system is compatible with most bathroom surfaces when using the appropriate fixing method. Ensure surfaces are sound and suitable for adhesion or screwing.

Care:

  • Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the chrome-plated finish.
  • Wipe dry after cleaning to prevent water spots.
