Speaking to Yahoo Lifestyle, Kyla said before she found this solution, her kitchen bench was no where near as tidy as it is now.

"The kitchen bench area was a mess. It was all spread out and looked very cluttered – having a baby makes everything messy as there is just stuff everywhere."

Someone else suggested another use for the Kmart caddy, "That’s a great idea that would work for a coffee stand too." Another added, "Looks like a cool hack for the caravan as well. Condiments station!"

Many others posted that they now "need to go to Kmart" to get their own with some calling it the "best idea ever".

Some mums commented that they wished they'd thought of it when their children were still using bottles, "Omg!!! Where were you with this idea three years ago!!!" one user said.

Some thought that the weight of the bottles might make the caddy fall, but others suggested using picture hooks as a way around this.
