Rethink Your Cabinet Space With the Best Under-Sink Organizers (2024)

Our Top Picks

The Spacekeeper Under Sink Organizer is our top pick, because of its large size and the drawer slide-out feature. We found that the two-tiered organizer surprisingly held up to 50 different items, including bathroom cleaning supplies, beauty and skincare products, and more. The bottom drawer slides out comfortably, and during our tests, it never became stuck or caused the unit to be imbalanced.

We loved the bottom slide-out drawer so much, we were actually disappointed it wasn't a function of the top shelf, too. Since the bottom shelf had height limitations, many tall bottles had to be placed at the top shelf. Unfortunately, because of plumbing constraints, it was often difficult to reach those objects with ease. Despite this, we think the organizer fits comfortably to the left or right of the plumbing under the sink.

In addition, it remained stable even though we frequently accessed the items in the organizer. We also like that it remained securely in place due to four non-slip feet. It comfortably held heavier products, such as large lotion bottles or cleansers, never once becoming imbalanced or jostling any products out of place.

Four dividers were included for additional organization needs, but we didn't find the need to use those during our testing period. With the organizer made of durable plastic, much like the others on our list, it was easy to keep clean. Eye shadow powder, for instance, accidentally spilled on the bottom shelf, yet we scrubbed it away easily with just soap and water.

If you want an organizer that can conveniently expand to accommodate any under sink area, The Container Store Expandable Under Sink Organizer is a fantastic customizable option. With its adjustability, this unit can be as narrow or as wide—up to 27.5 inches—as required for our organization needs.

We actually expanded the organizer to its full length to maximize all of the space under our sink, and it did so without interfering with bulky piping or water lines. In addition to the unit itself being adjustable, the six shelves and two pull-out drawers were separate units that we were able to configure how we liked.

The drawers and shelves came with built-in latches, so they sat on the shelf bars without becoming loose or unstable. We also like that the drawers opened and closed with ease. Because the organizer occupied our entire cabinet space, there were gaps alongside the shelves and drawers. Although we could have tightened the frame to fill them, we preferredto expand the organizer to its maximum capacity.

We found the most challenging part was identifying where to place all of our items. We made use of the available shelves and drawers, and then used our own plastic containers to organize the remaining products.

Unfortunately, two of the six shelves arrived broken. But we didn't have room to fit them anyway, and simply put them in storage as backup options. This left us feeling concerned this may result in other shelves and drawers breaking, although that was not something we experienced during testing. The trick, we think, is to keep heavy items on the bottom base and avoid overstacking.

A convenient way of organizing items under the sink is using a drawer organizer. We tested the Madesmart 2-Tier Plastic Multipurpose Organizer, fitting dishwashing pods, cleaning supply bottles, and trash bags onto the two-tiered removable drawers.

It not only made everything simple to grab, but also made the area aesthetically pleasing. It also came with dry-erase labeling on the front of the basket, perfect for easy-to-spot organization.

We think that the Madesmart 2-Tier Plastic Multipurpose Organizer is ideal for lightweight bottles and objects, like sponges or dishwasher pods. Heavier items made the drawer component difficult to open and close. We worked around that by simply lifting the drawer out instead of trying to slide it forward. Considering the price point, we weren't surprised that this function was not as fluid as we would have preferred.

Because it was easier to access, we placed the majority of our most-used products on the upper-shelf. That made the organizer a bit top heavy and slightly unsteady when we attempted to slide out the drawer. Despite this, it still kept everything safe and secure, and the compact design made it easy to fit alongside piping.

_{Dimensions: 14.3 x 10.6 x 9 inches | Material: Steel, Plastic | Adjustable: No | Assembly Required: Yes}

The OXO Good Grips Turntable is a simple but convenient under-sink organizer. We loved its flat-platform design, easily fitting up to 25 bottles, cleaning supplies, and other equipment of all shapes and sizes.

The spinning function made it simple for us to access whatever we needed, when we needed it. We loved being able to see everything at a glance instead of having to remember a specific organization system.

This was one of the easiest organizers we've ever used, as no assembly was required. We simply slid the OXO Good Grips Turntable inside the cabinet and placed items on top. It ended up replacing six different bins we had previously used. We noticed if taller bottles and other larger objects were placed in the middle that they would sometimes run into piping when we turned the organizer.

The turntable itself rotated smoothly, never once becoming stuck or showing signs of difficulty maneuvering. Plus, it didn't get in the way of any piping or waterlines. We didn't have to worry about any breakable aspects of the turntable, thanks to its simple design. The width of the turnable turned out to be the exact circumference of the cabinet. We were concerned that this could prevent the doors from closing or make the organizer difficult to remove. But overall we never ran into issues related to this aspect.

The Rebrilliant Pull-Out Drawer is a two-tiered under-sink organizer made of solid metal with a sliding function that allows you to pull it out of the cabinet and push it back in with ease. This was one of our favorite features of the organizer and made all of our items convenient to access. It also greatly improved our previous organization system since everything was easy to find.

Eight mounting screws secured the organizer. It easily installed inside of our cabinet without getting in the way of piping or water lines. While the top shelf is narrower to accommodate piping, overall it provided an abundant amount of room to fit five plastic organizers, as well as other bathroom supplies, such as razors, lotions, and soaps. We accessed the products inside twice daily, as we were getting ready in the morning or for bed.

This particular organizer was far superior to other products we've used in the past. It appeared highly stable, although we noticed that the top shelf was only secured by two vertical rods, which meant it didn't appear as secure as the bottom shelf.

Despite this, at no point did we feel that our products weren't safe and secure. While it's a higher price in comparison to other organizers on this list, this particular option allowed for a higher capacity of items and the entire frame could slide out from under the cabinet instead of one drawer.

_{Dimensions: 15.5 x 12.3 x 18 inches | Material: Metal | Adjustable: No | Assembly Required: Yes}

Getting ready in the morning usually means accessing hair styling products and various equipment, such as a blow dryer or a curling iron. The SimpleHouseware Cabinet Door/Wall Mount Hair Dryer & Styling Tools Organizer makes styling equipment far easier to access, while keeping them neat in one centralized location. Because this option can hang on the door, it maximizes unused cabinet space, specifically in typically hard-to-organize areas.

The organizer has three slots for holding hair styling equipment, such as brushes, hair dryers, curling irons, or straighteners. During testing, it shook a bit when removing the products, but it didn't seem unstable or too extreme in its movements.

We noticed our curling iron was a bit too tall to fit in the organizer, so we ended up using only two of the three slots.If possible, we would have preferred the slots to be deeper or the hanging rods to have been slightly longer so we could fit more objects.

Although we actually placed this unit in a cabinet not near any plumbing, we believe it would fit well beside piping. Screws are available to potentially mount the organizer.

When opening and closing the cabinet, you can visibly see that there is a contraption hanging on it. However, we became accustomed to this factor and it never got in the way of us being able to completely open and close the cabinet door.

Keeping the bathroom organized can be a challenge, especially with so many personal hygiene items, hair and skin care products, and bathroom cleansers and supplies you need to access on a regular basis. The Container-Store Like-it Under the Sink Starter Kit is our pick for the best organizer in the bathroom. We fit far more than we would have expected, including our hair dryer and medical supply items. We were even able to remove items off our bathroom sink to place into this unit.

This seven-piece kit is a choose-your-own-adventure style organizer, and we love that the possibilities for this are endless. While we did notice one bin missing from our kit, we had a plentiful amount of room with the bins provided. We were able to rearrange the containers and organizer kit however we wanted. Bins with products that we accessed daily, like soaps or lotions, were placed near the front of our kitchen cabinet, with other items not used as often toward the back. We appreciated that we had enough room to keep toilet paper under the sink and a step stool.

The tall narrow drawer opened smoothly. However, since we used it to organize our hair dryer, the weight of this item caused the unit to tip. We avoided pulling it out too far so the whole organizer didn't topple.

Lightweight objects likely wouldn't create this issue. Other than this problem, the organizer was sturdy. In fact, the bins themselves were surprisingly heavy, and we decided not to stack them since that would have made them tough to move around.Overall, we loved how flexible this unit is, as we could easily place the bins in other areas of the bathroom, if necessary.

_{Dimensions: 18.25 x 6.75 x 11 inches (Tall Narrow Drawer), 8.13 x 13.75 x 4.75 inches (Wide Tall Bin), 8.13 x 11 x 4.75 inches (Wide Tall Bin), 5.5 x 13.75 x 4.75 inches (Medium Tall Bin), 2.63 x 11 x 4.75 inches (Narrow Tall Bin), 5.5 x 11 x 2.38 inches (Medium Short Bin), 2.63 x 5.5 x 1.63 inches (Narrow Shallow Bin) | Material: Plastic | Adjustable: No Assembly Required: Yes}

Bending down to hunt for the items you want in your under-sink organizer is not always ideal. Instead, picking up the entire organization system can make it much easier. That's why a caddy under-sink organizer like the Yamazaki Home Storage Basket is an ideal solution. We loved its attractive design and sturdy material, even preventing it from being knocked down by pets that love getting under the sink.

The caddy was easy to use without any latches or drawers. All you do is place your items inside, maneuvering around the center bar. We specifically appreciated this for storing smaller and more frequently accessed items, such as sponges, cleanser refills, and soaps.

In fact, we believe the Yamazaki Home Storage Basket would be more suitable for the bathroom rather than under the kitchen sink. Since the items in the kitchen tend to be much larger, we recommend some of the larger organization systems on our list.

There are no dividers or any compartments, so we noticed objects may shift around when lifting it up from under the sink. We also avoided adding any heavy objects inside because of the middle bar, which could have accommodated more objects if it was adjustable or just a bit higher. Because it's an open container, we were concerned that it would potentially accumulate residue or grime inside. However, so far we haven't noticed any particular issues since placing it under our sink.

The YouCopia Roll Out Caddy Rolling Storage Bin caught our attention because of an Instagram reel shared by professional organizer, Christina Coscia. We tested it ourselves and loved the built-in wheels that allowed us to pull the organizer out of the cabinet to grab dish soap, sponges, and spray cleaning bottles. We also raved about the removable storage basket that we used to store dishwasher pods (as opposed to the oversized bags they usually come in).

The basket itself snapped securely into place easily, never wobbling or coming loose when accessing the organizer. We easily washed it clean when one of the pods burst open and because of the basket's drainage holes, it dried quickly.

We accessed this organized daily, and it never once became unstable with frequent usage. We also utilized the four included dividers, which helped keep everything neat and organized. We love it primarily because you can use it just about anywhere—the bathroom, the kitchen, the laundry room, or the garage.

Never once during testing did the wheel mechanism become stuck or get in the way of being able to close our cabinet doors. In fact, it fits our cabinet space from front to back perfectly, although it can easily be placed in front of piping rather than the side of it, depending on your cabinet size. In fact, we found that we could have used even more room in this organizer to hold additional items. But there is an 8-inch wide option that potentially can provide more storage room, if you should need it.
