[ I claim:] [1.] A suction cup attachment device for use on a shower wall in combination with a removable shower accessory, the device comprising:a hollow base having a suction side adapted to face the wall, a connector side adapted to extend outwardly from the wall, and an inner surface;a hollow cylindrical connector integral with the connector side of the base, the connector having a concentric surface adapted to extend to a distal end for rotatably mounting the shower accessory, the distal end having a small opening therein;a conical cup integral with the suction side of the base, the cup having defining within the cup surface a chamber, the chamber having a perimeter edge defining a large opening for adhering the device to the wall;an elongate cylindrical pressure indicator internally deposed in a sliding relationship within the base and the connector, the indicator having a leading edge at one end, the leading edge having a diameter larger than the diameter of the opening in the distal end of th connector, the indicator having a cylindrical surface defining a plurality of air vent slots disposed therein, the indicator having an internal seal disc at the other end, the seal disc having a concave surface on one side, whereby the device upon being adapted to be biased against the wall, air will escape from the chamber through the perimeter edge thereby causing a partial vacuum adapted to create a seal between the wall and the perimeter edge, while propelling the pressure indicator towards the distal end of the connector forming a second seal, an internal seal caused by the concave surface of the disc and the inner surface of the base, the process can be reversed by pushing a finger through the small opening at the distal end allowing air to dislodge the internal seal; anda finger hold integrally encircling the base, whereby the shower accessory can be unmounted for the device without breaking the suction seal at the wall.
