Proper handling and storage helps reduce injuries and damages arising from the process. As such, there are specialized gadgets specifically designed for this purpose. Cable caddy in particular is a gadget that anyone working with a lot of wires cannot miss in his collection of tools. However, it is not about walking to the store and selecting any caddy on display, a lot of ground work has to be done.

It can only be convenient to use if it is easy to assemble and set up.

The dimension of the caddy chosen also matters a lot. It needs to be very compact as this allows for easy storage and promotes portability. However, the need to have it portable should not supersede its functionality. It has to be large enough to be able to support the cable that you need it for.

It is a very rich source of information in regards to these devices.

Different models come with difference specifications for the maximum load at any given time. This can vary widely, and is always specified in the manual. There are those that will only support a single cable at a time, while other candies can support more cables.

The last major consideration is the price tag for each device. Normally, cheap is associated with simplicity. However, this is not always the case, as some very good devices can be found at a very cheap price. However, it is better to pay more and get a device that last longest than just go for anything.
