The team found the solution in a synthetic rubber that proved to be better at attaching to different surfaces and filling out any unevenness so that air can’t get in. “We tried the suction cups with the new material, both in a test lab and in peoples homes, to make sure that a stable vacuum is created and that the suction cups stay where you want them.”

Faulty suction cupAnjaliI've bought several Tisken products, including this very basket once before. In gen the suction cups work ok for a reasonable length of time . I've received this basket with one clearly faulty suction cup. One works just fine. The other pops off the wall after abt 5 minutes.
The suction is not so great.SayaniI bought 2 of these. My friends product suction was great. But mine keeps falling off from the wall. I've cleaned the wall multiple times to keep the basket up. But it still falls from the wall.

Excellent quality and easy to assemble and fix the tiskenPayapillyDelivery on time and quality product delivered
Good quality basketBalajiThe build quality is good. As someone from India, the quality of the plastic can't be found in any local market at this cost. It is easy to fix and stays firm. Not sure why the 3kg is a standard in all Ikea's suction based product though.

Wall adhesion problem. Anonymous reviewerThe product failed to stay stuck on regular bathroom tiles.
Suction cup not good DeepakOne of the suction is not good. I was planing to place on kitchen tile. One out of the two suctions coming out even when I put it without basket . As a result now I can’t use the whole of article . I am planning to return this . Now I am worried for other suction hooks that i bought for other purpose . Seems there is some compromise in quality.

Story
Better grip for flexible storage
The moveable suction cup is a smart wall mount for flexible bathroom storage. The only problem is that it can come off after a while. Suddenly you hear a thump in the bathroom, and the shampoo bottle is on the floor. So, how do you make the suction cup attach better? Product developer Kristofer Adsegård and his colleagues – responsible for TISKEN bathroom series – wanted to find out.
Kristofer and the team started by studying in detail how a suction cup works. “It attaches because there’s a vacuum between the suction cup and the surface. But, if air comes in, the vacuum breaks and plop – your hanger comes off. It can be something small, like dirt and limescale on the wall, or tiny irregularities on the tile that eventually let air in,” says Kristofer.
Rubber that seals tight
The suction cup becomes like new again
To make your TISKEN bathroom series last longer, it’s important to handle the suction cups right. Kristofer explains that you shouldn’t pull the hook or other parts to make them come off, since it can damage the grip. “To release the vacuum, it’s better to use your bank card, or some other plastic card, between the suction cup and the wall. And, if you put the suction cup in water near boiling point for a few minutes, and then air dry it, it will become almost like new again.”
Function solution
Better grip for flexible storage
Why do suction cups come off the wall after a while? That fact made us so frustrated that we detail studied the vacuum technique. We noticed that barely visible dirt or limescale breaks the vacuum seal, even on smooth tile walls. So, for TISKEN bathroom series we looked for a new rubber material that seals better and fills out small uneven spots on the wall. Now you don’t have to wake up in the middle of the night from the sound of the shampoo bottle thumping on the floor.
