The spacesaver has three wire units and does not protrude beyond the commode tank. The dimensions are 68 inches H x 25 inches W x 8-1/2 inches D. They are constructed of brass plated steel and will be imported and sold unassembled. The bath valet and the spacesaver are designed to be placed on the floor or ground.

The third item is a wall shelf, Blair Product #693921. It sits on a vanity top or can be mounted on a wall. The dimensions are 16-1/2 inches H x 15-1/2 inches W x 5-1/2 D. It is also constructed of brass plated steel.
