I spent hours (seriously.... hours gone from my life) looking for over-the-cabinet-door organizers, and the thing that infuriated me was not being able to find reliable information for all product dimensions, including height of the baskets, and more importantly, the maximum height of the objects you could store in them. The product info in the Amazon listings was often incomplete, or gave only the total end-to-end length/width/height measurements, which wasn't terribly helpful to me. So I hope these measurements help someone, or at least keep you from tearing your hair out......
TOP BASKET
Length (left-to-right): 11 inches
Width (front-to-back): ~3 inches
Height (bottom-to-top): 2.25 inches
Height of the tallest thing you can fit in the top basket: 4.25 inches. (Any taller and you won't be able to close your cabinet.)
BOTTOM BASKET
Length (left-to-right): 11 inches
Width (front-to-back): ~3 inches
Height (bottom-to-top): 3.75 inches
Height of the tallest thing you can fit in the bottom basket: 8.5 inches. (Any taller and you won't be able to "tilt" it properly to make it clear the top basket.)
The ~3 inch width, or depth (front-to-back) means that you can't exactly fit something bulky like a hairdryer in the bottom basket, since the barrel is usually 4 inches or so. But, the good news is that these baskets are therefore slim enough so that you can close the cabinet door without knocking over whatever you have inside your under-the-sink-area. Also, if anyone finds this useful, I discovered that if I attached a carabiner-type-clip to my hair flatiron, I can just clip it to a side of the top basket, and let the iron hang down freely next to the baskets---there should be plenty of room on your cabinet door. (See photo.) I'm sure everyone agrees that this is a brilliant solution, and I am practically MacGyver.
BOTH baskets have a removable plastic tray lining the bottom. I was worried that the trays would be wobbly, but they're not, even though they don't snap firmly into place. It's much better than trying to balance a tall, skinny object (hair products, etc) on a bare wire frame surface.
This organizer doesn't interfere with me closing the cabinet door. I've attached photos of what my cabinet looks like with the door open and closed for reference. The part that hooks over your cabinet is clearly visible when the cabinet door is closed---no getting around that. On the bright side, the hooked part is padded, so it doesn't (a) make noise, or (b) scuff your cabinet door.
In a sea of similar bathroom organizers, this one is definitely one of the best---the two basket design lets you store a lot of toiletries. I may pick up another for the other bathroom.
Hope this helps.
Researched numerous organizers. Measuring the depth of door where the hangers will be really helped to select the right size organizer. This one fits my bathroom lower cabinet door perfectly. Really enjoy the clear plastic liners in each basket that keeps smaller items from falling through the chrome rungs. It's quiet and doesn't rattle when opening and closing cabinet door.
I have very little room under my kitchen sink because I keep a trash can under it along with a smaller container for recycled products. I had to do a lot of measuring to be sure this would allow me to close the cabinet door and still keep the one storage bin I use. This fits perfectly and allows me to keep everything neater under my sink. Great purchase.
fa
st delivery and works great. second one purchased. holds lots and well made. thanks
UPDATE.........It is possible to attach the one shelf organizer to the double (on the top shelf) one if you have the clearance under the cabinet to make it a 3 shelf organizer.......makes LOTS of storage space.....LOVE IT...Sturdy and well made.
Really great for under the sink. Keeps everything nice and tidy. If you get this make sure you realize how close the top one is to put your face wash . Smaller items are better fitted to the top like tooth paste or your tooth brush

I searched for quite a while looking for a way to expand the storage in my bathroom cabinet. This was the answer and I couldn't have chosen anything better.
As a note: I don't have a drawer in my bedroom bathroom. I only have a cabinet under the sink. I wanted something to easily access toothpaste, deoderant, etc.
This EXACTLY what I needed for my bathroom vanity. It keeps often used items within a quick reach and the item is well made. The size is perfect. The lower shelf is deep enough for the taller items (I put makeup brushes there) and the upper shelf is perfect for toothpast, floss, etc. I am very happy with this. It makes life easier!
So, as per usual, I've an odd storage problem that was solved by the addition of a tall metal DVD storage tower placed mostly on a tall wall with an overhang of about fourteen inches out in front of a half wall. What to do with that pesky exposed section from thirty-eight inches off the ground up to the ceiling? Simple, two over the cabinet door organizers that can hold my toothbrush and toothpaste and hairbrush and those little puppy supplies like their little toothbrush and toothpaste and those tiny nail clippers they hate so much. In a word, these are PERFECT for any odd space with wire shelving. After I hung mine, a friend saw them and bought one to hang on the front of a wire shelf in his closet, in front of a stack of shirts he rarely wears. These are a great option for odd storage and, of course, can actually be used inside a kitchen cabinet or Ikea unit (since their doors are so thin), if regular old normal person storage is what you need. They are sturdy (so long as you don't overload them) enough to accommodate a large bottle of mouthwash on one shelf and a small bottle of soap underneath in addition to those items listed above. An all around excellent product, too rare these days.
This double shelf which I placed over my bathroom cabinet door, is great for organizing beauty items. Now they are at my fingertips when I open the door. Everything fits neatly and I can get what I need quickly. Would recommend this to all organization buffs!
but too big for my bathroom cabinet. Should have measured it but I thought it would fit. :( I moved it to a cabinet with a larger door in the kitchen for spices. Works great. But I bought it to organize my "stuff" in the bathroom. Instead I bought the Lynk shelf that sits on the counter. Check your door width first!
