Full details
This Clorox Toilet Plunger and Holder Set is designed for homeowners seeking an effective and tidy solution for toilet clogs.

FAQs
How do I clean the hideaway caddy?
Wipe the exterior and interior with a damp cloth. The internal drip tray can be removed and rinsed with water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
What is the purpose of the flange cup on the plunger?
The flange cup extends from the main plunger cup and is designed to fit securely into the toilet drain opening, creating a better seal for more effective clog removal.
How does the automatic opening/closing mechanism work?
The mechanism is triggered by the weight and position of the plunger. When the plunger is lifted out, a sensor or lever allows the caddy to open. When replaced, the plunger pushes against the opening, and the caddy closes.
Can I use this plunger for sink or shower drains?
While the plunger is heavy-duty, its flange is specifically designed for toilet bowls. It may not be as effective or provide the correct seal for sink or shower drains, which often have different shapes and sizes.
What are the dimensions of the hideaway caddy?
The storage caddy measures approximately 6.5 inches wide by 6.5 inches deep by 16.5 inches tall.
Does the caddy require batteries or power?
No, the automatic opening and closing mechanism of the hideaway caddy is purely mechanical and does not require batteries or any external power source.
Troubleshooting
Caddy does not close automatically
Ensure the plunger is correctly seated in the caddy and not obstructed. Check if the drip tray is properly in place, as this can affect the closing mechanism.
Plunger is not effectively clearing clogs
Ensure the flange cup is fully extended and creating a seal within the toilet bowl. Apply firm, consistent plunging motions. For very severe clogs, multiple attempts or a different clearing method might be necessary.
Water leaking from the caddy
Check that the internal drip tray is correctly inserted and not overflowing. Ensure the plunger head is not excessively wet when stored, and empty the drip tray regularly.
Caddy feels unstable
Ensure the caddy is placed on a level surface. The rubber base provides stability, but uneven floors may cause rocking.
