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.”

Won't stickRainaThe suction pad of 2 out of 4 items bought won't stick to the tiles even though it's glass finish tile in bathroom. Had to use feviqwick to keep it stuck, as I had bought it from store and store is very far away, there is no option for pick up drop of faulty item
Suction cups give away within few days. Tried on tile surface as well as wall. RavishankarSuction cups give away within few days. Tried on tile surface as well as wall after proper cleaning. Atleast alternate arrangement could have been provided to fix it with nails.

Perfect fitVishalamIt fits well in the shower area.
Disappointed – Suction Cups Don't Hold ProperlyRohitI recently bought the IKEA Corner Shelf Unit with Suction Cup, hoping it would be an easy solution for extra storage in my bathroom. Unfortunately, I'm very disappointed. One of the suction cups refuses to hold against the wall no matter what I try. I followed all the instructions carefully cleaned the surface, made sure it was smooth and dry but the shelf still keeps slipping.
It’s really frustrating because the idea is great, and when it stays in place, the unit looks nice and is very useful. But with one side constantly coming loose, it’s just not reliable. I expected better quality from IKEA. Sadly, I wouldn’t recommend this product unless you’re planning to find another way to secure it.
NOT GOOD at ALLSuchandanGum quality is poor, i followed all instructions but still the container doesn't hold properly.

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.
