HOOBRO Over the Toilet Storage, 3-Tier Over Toilet Bathroom Organizer Review
Source note: every specification in this review comes from the product data for this model.
Space above a toilet is one of the few bathroom spots that most floor plans leave empty. A freestanding over-toilet unit can turn that gap into storage for towels, toiletries and tissue, without drilling into the wall. The HOOBRO Over the Toilet Storage, 3-Tier Over Toilet Bathroom Organizer is a freestanding three-shelf unit with four metal legs. It measures 25 inches wide, 8.7 inches deep and 62.6 inches high, and the product data lists an anti-tip kit for fixing it to the wall. This review turns those figures into practical decisions and sets out the checks to make before you buy. You can view the HOOBRO over-toilet unit on Amazon to compare the photos with the details below.
What the box contains
The package contents field lists one over-toilet shelf, one anti-tip kit, one accessory kit and one instruction sheet. The included components field repeats the same four items. The number of pieces field reads 1, and the data describes the build as tool-free.
The naming in the data uses a few variants. The brand and manufacturer both read HOOBRO. The model number and model name read “EBF63TS01 Étagère de Toilettes,” and the set name reads “3-Tier Over Toilet Shelf.” The style name reads Country Rustic. The color field reads Rustic Brown + Black, and the hardware color reads black.
Read this before you install
The product data includes a HOOBRO note that says to fix the product against the wall with the supplied anti-tip kit before use. The additional features field lists adjustable feet and anti-tipping. Treat the anti-tip kit as part of the installation, not an optional extra. Plan the wall fixing before you load any items on the unit.
The same data describes tool-free assembly with a twist-on structure. Tool-free assembly and wall fixing are separate steps. Check the instruction sheet before you start, and confirm the anti-tip step is part of the build order.
Who this unit suits
- Anyone with a small bathroom where the toilet has open wall space above it. The feature bullets name small bathrooms and the wish to avoid bending down for items under the sink.
- Buyers who want storage that stands on the floor. The mounting type field reads floor mount, and the base type reads legs.
- Households that want a rustic look. The style name reads Country Rustic, and the finish types field lists matte or brushed.
- Anyone who wants the unit in a room beyond the bathroom. The room type field lists bathroom, entryway, hallway, home office and laundry room, and the feature bullets name a corner or hallway shelf as another use.
Who should look at other units
- Anyone who needs a closed cabinet. The data describes open shelves and an open-frame door style.
- Anyone with a narrow doorway. The minimum door width is not stated in the listing, and the unit is 25 inches wide and 62.6 inches tall.
- Anyone who needs a unit that installs with no wall fixing at all. The data does not describe a no-drill installation. It calls for the anti-tip kit before use.
- Anyone who needs a particular shelf material on every tier. The data lists both wooden and mesh shelves, with different load figures.

Load: two wooden and mesh figures and a metric field
The data gives three load figures. The weight capacity field reads 10 kg maximum. The static load field reads 30 pounds for each wooden shelf and 22 pounds for each mesh shelf. The data does not reconcile the three figures, and it does not say which tier is wood or mesh. Plan for the lowest figure, which is the mesh shelf at 22 pounds, and keep each tier to a load you could carry in one trip.
The wooden tiers are the stronger ones on paper, so use them for heavier items such as folded towels, a basket of supplies or a bottle set. Keep the mesh tier for lighter items such as tissue or small bottles. You must confirm which tier is which before you load it.
The item weight of 7.2 kg means the unit is not light to lift. Carry it with help, and confirm the anti-tip kit is installed before you add any items.
The bottom space and the toilet
The bottom space measures 24.6 inches wide, 8.7 inches deep and 36.4 inches high. The feature bullet says that space is “enough to fit most toilets or laundry baskets.” The wording about toilets is unclear, so for a toilet the checks that matter are the tank clearance and the wall. The legs stand behind the tank, and the clear space underneath is most useful for a basket.
The four metal legs fit behind the back of the toilet tank. The data says this helps the unit work with the plumbing. Measure the distance from the wall to the back of the tank before you order, and check that the legs can reach behind the tank without touching the supply pipe.
Adjustable shelves and placement
The three shelves are adjustable, and the feature bullets say each shelf has a spacing of 11 inches. The data also says the shelves can be interchanged, so you can move the tiers into a different order. The adjustable spacing lets you set the gap for tall bottles, towels or a stack of tissue boxes.
The data lists towels, shampoo, aromatherapy and tissue as items that stay within easy reach. Use the top tier for items you need often, and the bottom tiers for bulkier objects. The unit’s three compartments are open, so small items may need a basket or a tray to stop them from sliding.
Stability and the anti-tip kit
The data says the unit stands firmly, with four heavy-duty metal legs and adjustable feet for balance. It also says the unit has anti-tipping as a feature, and the box includes an anti-tip kit. The anti-tip kit is the piece that fixes the unit to the wall. It is not optional, because the HOOBRO note tells you to use it before the unit is used.
Work through these checks before you load the unit:
- Wall type. The data does not describe the wall materials the anti-tip kit suits. Check the kit against the wall above the toilet before you drill.
- Level. Use the adjustable feet to set the unit level on the floor.
- Tank clearance. Confirm the legs sit behind the tank without touching the supply line.
- Anchor points. Mark the fixing points on the wall before you drill, and check for pipes and cables behind each point.
- Stability test. Confirm the unit does not rock before you add items.
Tool-free assembly
The data describes a twist-on structure that goes together “with just your hands.” It says there are no numerous parts and screws to keep track of. The instruction sheet is part of the box, and the data does not give an assembly time or step count.
Lay out the four legs, the shelves, the anti-tip kit and the accessory kit before you start. Check the parts against the package list, and confirm that the anti-tip kit is in the box. Tool-free assembly does not cover the wall-fixing step, so plan that as a separate job.
Uses in a bathroom and beyond
Toilet paper and tissue. The data lists tissue as an item for the unit. A spare roll on a lower tier keeps the supply within reach.
Towels and laundry. The data lists towels, and the bottom space fits a laundry basket. Use the bottom area for a basket of towels or supplies.
Toiletries and aromatherapy. The data lists shampoo and aromatherapy. Keep bottles on the tiers where you can see and reach them.
Corner or hallway. The feature bullets say the unit can be used as a corner or hallway shelf. Check the anti-tip fixing before you use it outside the bathroom, since the note applies to the product as sold.
Entryway, home office and laundry room. The room type field lists these rooms. The data does not describe specific items for them, so check the load limits before you add anything heavy.
Limits to weigh
- The three load figures are not reconciled in the data.
- The item weight is 7.2 kg, so the unit is not light to move.
- The minimum door width is not stated in the listing.
- The data calls for the anti-tip kit before use, which means the unit must be fixed to the wall.
- The shelves are open, so small items can slide without a tray or a basket.
- The warranty is not stated in the listing.
Category comparison criteria
Over-toilet units are compared on width, depth, height, load rating, shelf material, anti-tip fixing, base style and the space under the unit. The data includes a different over-toilet unit from the HEVONTIXAL category research. That product is not the HOOBRO unit, and its figures apply only to itself.
The HEVONTIXAL listing is a metal three-tier unit, 26.7 inches wide, 9.6 inches deep and 63 inches high. Its maximum weight is 90 pounds, and its item weight is 15.2 pounds. Its door width is 26.7 inches, and it includes an anti-tip kit, a paper towel holder and four magnetic hooks. The HOOBRO unit is 25 inches wide, 8.7 inches deep and 62.6 inches high, with a bottom space listed at 24.6 inches wide. Its item weight is 7.2 kg, and its listed load figures are 22 to 30 pounds per shelf type. If you need the higher load rating, the HEVONTIXAL figures are the ones to compare. If you want a wood-and-metal unit with a rustic look, the HOOBRO data is the one that describes it.
Questions buyers ask
Does it need drilling? The data does not describe a no-drill installation. It does say to fix the product against the wall with the supplied anti-tip kit before use.
What is in the box? One over-toilet shelf, one anti-tip kit, one accessory kit and one instruction sheet.
How much weight can it hold? The data gives 30 pounds for each wooden shelf, 22 pounds for each mesh shelf and 10 kg as the weight capacity field. It does not reconcile them.
Which shelves are wood? The data does not say which tier is wood and which is mesh.
Does it fit over a toilet? The data says the legs fit behind the back of the tank, and the feature bullet says the bottom space is enough for most toilets or laundry baskets. Measure the tank clearance before you order.
Is there a warranty? Not stated in the listing.
What is the minimum door width? Not stated in the listing.
Checks to make before you buy
- Measure the wall behind the toilet, and confirm the 25-inch width fits the space.
- Measure the height above the toilet, since the unit stands 62.6 inches tall.
- Measure the distance from the wall to the back of the tank, and confirm the legs can sit behind it.
- Check the narrowest doorway on the delivery path, since the minimum width is not stated.
- Plan the anti-tip fixing: confirm the wall type suits the kit before you drill.
- Plan the load: wood tiers for heavier items and mesh tiers for lighter ones, after you confirm which is which.
Buying the HOOBRO unit by situation
- A small bathroom with a toilet and open wall space. The unit’s 8.7-inch depth and the bottom space for a basket suit this layout.
- A bathroom with a tall wall above the toilet. The 62.6-inch height is tall, so measure the ceiling clearance before you order.
- A hallway or corner shelf. The feature bullets name this use. Fix the unit to the wall with the anti-tip kit first.
- A laundry room with a basket to store. The bottom space fits a laundry basket, and the room type field lists laundry rooms.
- A home office or entryway. The room type field lists both rooms, but the data gives no specific items for them, so check the load before you add anything heavy.

| Height | Measure from the floor to the ceiling | 62.6 in high |
| Bottom space | Measure the clear area under the shelves | 24.6 in wide, 36.4 in high |

Final verdict
The HOOBRO Over the Toilet Storage, 3-Tier Over Toilet Bathroom Organizer suits a bathroom with open wall space above the toilet and a need for three adjustable tiers of storage. Its listed figures are 25 inches wide, 8.7 inches deep and 62.6 inches tall, with a bottom space that the data says fits most toilets or laundry baskets. It is not a fit for a closed cabinet, a narrow doorway or a load that needs a clear rating. Install the anti-tip kit before use, measure the tank clearance, and confirm which tier is wood and which is mesh. You can check the current HOOBRO listing on Amazon for the details that apply to the unit you are buying.
