A vinyl-coated steel shelf that spans the space above a front-load washer or dryer and puts laundry supplies within reach. The shelf is 26.5 inches wide and 10 inches deep and carries up to 25 pounds, which covers a detergent jug, a box of dryer sheets, and a bottle of fabric softener with room left over.
Rated to 25 pounds, the shelf takes a full detergent container and several smaller bottles without flexing in the middle. That figure is worth checking against what actually accumulates in a laundry area, since liquid softener and bleach are heavier than they look once two or three containers share the same 26.5 inch span.
Every steel wire is sealed in a vinyl coating, which keeps the shelf from scratching an appliance lid and stops spilled detergent from etching bare metal. The coating also gives bottles a slight grip, so a container is less likely to slide off the 10 inch depth when the washer goes into a fast spin.
The rear-display arrangement lifts supplies to the back wall above front-load appliances, using the dead vertical space that otherwise collects lint and loose change. In an apartment where the machines sit in a closet, this recovers a full shelf without drilling cabinets or giving up any floor area at all.
