Jordanyaya1 Posted July 15, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 15, 2018 We’re booked on the Reflection TA in October. We’ve done this ship and itinerary several times but this time we will have a third passenger joining us in a concierge cabin. Has anyone brought an over-the-door hanging shoe storage organizer? My thought was to hang it on the outside of the bathroom door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkere Posted July 16, 2018 #3 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I usually bring one for all the chargers and little things that we bring. I put over the closet door and have never asked to have removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSeaMonster Posted July 16, 2018 #4 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I have one. I bought it a couple cruises ago and used it most recently on the Bliss. It didn't fit on the back of the bathroom door (too big) but worked really well on the back of the adjoining cabin door. I actually found a pic of it, which I think confirms my wife accusations that I take WAY too many pics. I've attached that pic. One thing to note... make sure to get one that's FIRE RETARDANT. Otherwise, cruise lines could confiscate that and (more devastatingly) hold you up at security while you're trying to get on. Here's the one I bought on Amazon - Fire Retardant Hanging Organizer.

Shanker1 Posted July 16, 2018 #5 Share Posted July 16, 2018 We used magnet hangers and put in in several places in the cabin. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2psoki Posted July 17, 2018 #6 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Go for it! We always cruise with one, works well over the outside of the bathroom door. We always take an OTD clear shoe holder but we have always hung ours inside but that is just me. We also take a hanging "drawer" for the closet...sold in the same place as the shoe holder. Gives you extra "drawer" space. also, with a third person, you can take your open suitcase under the bed as an extra drawer. The other one is a great hamper. Works every time. Have fun!

Jordanyaya1 Posted July 18, 2018 Author #7 Share Posted July 18, 2018 We used magnet hangers and put in in several places in the cabin. Joe Brilliant idea. I always bring magnet hooks but never thought of using them to hang the shoe organizer. Proves you can teach an old dog new tricks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OT-Miami Posted August 15, 2018 #9 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I purchaed this over-the-door organizer from Amazon back in 2014: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002V91962/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have no idea about the flame retadedness of this item, but I have used it on multiple land and sea vacations without any issues. I understand the need to avoid any potential fire hazards when cruising, but I don't see how this item would be any different from an article of clothing brought from home...

I understand the need to avoid any potential fire hazards when cruising, but I don't see how this item would be any different from an article of clothing brought from home... FYI - If you decide to go with an organizer, it is important to consider the size of the hooks, as some will not fit over the bathroom door. The one I purchased from Amazon fits perfectly on the bathroom door as well as the closet door. Keep in mind that you won't be able to hang it from the closet if it has sliding doors. Also, once it is in use it gets pretty heavy, so I'm not sure how well the magnetic hooks would work. Food for thought... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordanyaya1 Posted August 15, 2018 Author #11 Share Posted August 15, 2018 The magnetic hooks I use hold 80# each so I think they would be fine holding the shoe holder especially since there will be 2 magnets on each shoe holder. For years we have found using magnets in our cabin very useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have very puny little magnets that would definitely not work :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
