So I got mine direct from the manufacturer and saved a little money.
This is a fine product; the plastics do not melt when you put hot curling or flatirons in them. And the shape is perfect for 99% of the blow dryers out there. This is "found space" in your bath. The price, 45 bucks with shipping, for a couple pieces of injection-molded plastic and a couple hinges, seems steep, and you could indeed fabricate a shelf on either side and attach it. But the design here works quite well given the attachment points available in your average vanity. It needs to be lighter weight than the plywood you'd probably use, because there isn't enough supporting structure for a heavier shelf. I thought of cutting a bookmatched pair of 1/4" plywood shelves to brace under there. but the attachment points are a bit flimsy for such a flat item. This design is lighter weight, allowing you to use the strength of the available fasteners to hold your blow dryer and irons.
So yes, with ten bucks for a small piece of plywood, some hinges, some backing brads and a band saw, you could make a shelf around your sink that would do this job. but this kit is ready to go now, and does the job better. What is your time worth?

First thing, if you are like me and don't fully read the decription. THIS COMES WITH THE HINGES FOR YOUR DOOR!!! I purchaased Rev-A-Shelf Sink Front Tip-Out Hinge 1 pair and did not need them as this holder came with the hinges! Awesome product, installed easily, securely holds one blow dryer (on the left) and one curling iron and a 2 1/2" flat iron too! (on the right side). We also installed a Lynk Professional 451121 11-by-21-by-14-Inch Roll-Out Chrome Under-Sink Drawer. These products together gave us some much needed organization and room under our bathroom sink! Get one!
