Wouldn't the wood rot if I kept it in the shower?

Yes, I imagine it would. However, if you intend on using it in the shower, I would advise that you not. This bowl is intended for use with a shaving brush and razor. Mostly when one uses a shaving brush, its at a sink or basin and not in a shower. Not that you can't, but its a little difficult to keep the lather on the face in the presence of steam and water.

Absolutely. It is handy for keeping in the bathroom or to take on trips, only.

The wood is heavily coated with lacquer to prevent rot. If you do not scratch, break or wear down that coating, there should not be a problem. It would be a good idea, though, to keep the shave soap bowl out of direct and continuous contact with water just as a preventive measure.

I haven't had it for very long, and my answer would have to be, "eventually," but I have to say that the finish is pretty slick and tight and it gets wet and dries out a lot better than I thought. I don't know about having it wet like 24/7 though.

I can't say for sure that this is not waterproof, but based on the quality level of the unit, I would not think it could survive the moisture of a shower.

I would not recommend you leave this outside, the wood would probably warp and likely the metal will rust over time.

Don't know I don't use in shower, I use as bench outside of shower. They do have some wood oils for Teak wood so you may need to do that

No, using wood as water toys can cause several different issues. First of all, the water may damage the paint over time. Second, moisture can cause the wood grain to swell and eventually result in splinters. And lastly, wood can grow mold and mildew when exposed to excessive moisture or soaked. Depending on the type of wood some varieties do hold up better (longer) to moisture exposure (quick drying hard woods with antibacterial properties) but that would not be these.

It is a beautiful piece and I am very happy with it; however, I do not use mine in the shower. I use it as a seat and place to store towels next to my shower. It is made out of genuine teak so I am sure it would last if used in the shower.

Please don't leave your razor in the shower. Although the razor parts may not rust, the blade itself will go dull quicker and ruin your shave.

Not preferably but if you do make sure you dry and oil it with coconut or olive etc to keep it healthy. Wood is wood so it will biodegrade if you do not take care of it.

I use this to hang up wet towels after I've used them to shower with and I have not found any damage to the racks or items. I believe it is safe to use for the purposes you have in mind!

I used the chair in the shower. It had been yossrd in the trash. My shower was large enough to accommodate but the workmanship of the chair was not well made.

I don't think it was made for moisture expected in a shower. I have wiped mine ( in the kitchen) with damp cloths and that doesn't bother it. As I have mentioned before, the corners are rather pointy and sharp ( not like a knife) something I would think about before using in a shower

yes you can it is perfect for the shower it is very easy to assemble and it is sturdy teak is the best wood for damp areas

It depends how large our bathroom is. I would suspect that the moisture from the bathroom would adversely affect the wood eventually.

The wood does not appear to be treated with anything, however, I have had mine in my kitchen for over a year and see no problems. It has gotten wet, but as long as it is just wiped off appears to have no effect and I see no stains or changes. Suppose you could cover it with a polyurethane once you got it. Very pleased with mine.

Yes, but as with any cleaner, it'd be best to test it somewhere inconspicuous first.Not all wood finishes have the same durability. Particularly as this has to dwell for 10 minutes to disinfect, less durable finishes might not hold up.

I don't see why not, I keep mine indoors in a shower and it is great. You may want to keep it in the shade and out of the rain.

Using the item in the shower should be fine. However, we only recommend using water-based lubricant.
