20 IKEA Bathroom Storage Finds Under $20 That Keep Shoppers Coming Back For More

Bathrooms are absolutely integral spaces in the home: they are the scene for a wide variety of needs on a daily basis, from brushing your teeth to showering and everything in between. Perhaps it is because they are such important rooms that it feels like many bathrooms never have sufficient storage. Poorly planned out drawer placements, medicine cabinets that are so small that they are essentially useless, and small footprints of the bathrooms in general can complicate the storage potential of a space. Because of this, many individuals are on the hunt for affordable products that can help them stay on top of their bathroom storage needs. 

IKEA has long had a reputation for delivering unique storage items for every corner of the home, and their bathroom storage products are no exception. If you're in need of practical storage items, you'll find many solid options at IKEA for under $20, ranging from over-the-door hooks and hangers to bins, suction-cup containers, towel bars, and wooden containers. With a small investment, your bathroom can become a space that functions well with storage items that work.
