TubShroom Original

This works sooo well. Easy to use, catches all the hair before the drain and keeps it unclogged, and easy to clean.

These really do catch ALL the hair! They fit in my tub drain, are easy to remove, and easy to clean. They do not impeded the water flow down the drain. The plastic is pliable, but holds it's shape. Mold will stain them after a while, but that can be prevented by taking it out of the drain to air-dry between uses. I liked them so well I bought some more and gave them to my daughters who have long hair.

TIME OWNED: 5 days at time of review [Updated below after 4 months, including in doggo baths!] OVERALL THOUGHTS: I've tried a ton of products to prevent lots of hair going down the tub drain because I shed so much. This one is very easy to install/remove for easy cleaning, without being big and obtrusive, and it catches a lot while hiding all that hair out of sight. I find it's best to clean it frequently and do clean mine almost every day, but it's a simple routine. This is my new favorite hair catching solution and I've stopped looking at others, for now. We'll see how it holds up. --- FULL REVIEW: Long story short, I shed a TON of my thin-but-numerous hair in the shower and it's an annoying and expensive problem, so I've been dedicated to trying products and finding a good solution for about 9 months now. Of course I can't tell if anything slips by this shroom but from what I see, it works very well to snag a ton of hair while still draining very well. The photo shows the amount of hair caught after I "pre-shed" my hair with a comb first and then took a shower (and the hair/shroom was left to dry overnight). It's also very easy to install and remove for cleaning, though I am worried about it getting moldy if left in place too long (as so many other products I've tried have done), so I have a routine I do daily to clear it out and hopefully help stave off mold as long as possible. But it's quite easy. MY CLEANING ROUTINE: 1. Turn on the water and shower/bathe as normal. 2. Before getting out of the tub to dry off, remove the shroom from the drain. Don't clean it yet!! Just leave it in the tub or put it on the edge, etc. 3. Leave it to dry overnight/until your next shower. 4. Before turning on the water for your next shower/bath, empty the DRY hair from the shroom out over the trash can. 5. Put the shroom back in place and you're back to Step 1. I find the hair (and the gunked up soap/shampoo/etc. that also inevitably gets caught) annoyingly sticks to your hand/the shroom when wet and everything drips when you move to the trash, so I just prefer to clean it when it's had a chance to dry, even if it's just a bit. You could leave the shroom in place to dry if you like! But like I said, I'm hoping pulling it out to dry faster will also help delay some of that moldy build-up as well. We'll see! MENSTRUAL CUP USERS: Because it's so easy to remove, I find it's great for when I need to empty my cup. It's just a quick added step! Clean the shroom (Step 4) but DON'T replace it just yet (Step 5). Instead, put it somewhere handy like on the edge of the tub or a shelf in the shower stall. Then turn on the water and get in the shower as normal, emptying your cup first thing. THEN replace the catcher (Step 5) and take your shower. This just makes it a bit easier than trying to fiddle with the shroom after you take your cup out and you have your hands full. ;) (And of course lets you more cleanly empty your cup directly into the drain with no obstructions.) CONS: None so far, but I'm keeping an eye on these and will be back to update if something goes amiss... - how durable it is over time (since cleaning it out frequently is best, I'm curious how long the silicone "feet" can handle the friction as it repeatedly rubs on the drain with removing/replacing it daily) - whether it starts to accumulate any mold (it's something lots of people here have mentioned but has also been my experience with every other product I've tried since, you know, water and gunk, so it's not unexpected... I just hope it's not too quickly) - how long I can go without cleaning it out (I've gotten used to cleaning these hair catchers out every day, so was doing that with this on autopilot to start. And it just seems best overall with the nature of these things. But I do want to experiment and see how long it could go before draining starts to clog.) --- Update 4 months later. Still works great and no issues. - Silicone is still in great shape with no tears or wear - No mold yet, though it has discolored but is probably not the item's fault (some of it is probably from rinsing hair dye in that shower, and the rest is probably Serratia Marcescens/iron... there's nothing to indicate any other changes that would be an issue) - With the amount of hair I lose in the shower, I can go about 3 days without clearing it before it affects drainage (I still prefer to clean it out daily but I experimented just to see heh) - I have a second one in the guest bathtub where the dog gets her monthly baths and it catches tons of her hair as well, which is considerably shorter than mine. Again, not sure if it does actually let anything slip by but it at least catches a good chunk that would otherwise go down the drain so I'm very happy with using it there also! --- Final update! So this did finally get moldy after about 7 months, though it might have been from neglect! We suddenly had to go away for 2 months and I forgot to remove it like I usually do after taking my shower right before we left. It was fine when we got back but then developed mold a couple weeks later, so I'm assuming the trip had something to do with it but can't be sure. Since I had to replace it, I decided to try their stainless steel version. It's been great for 4-ish months! But I do much prefer the overall design of this one, specifically the top. The stainless steel one has "claws" on the top that trap hair and make it very visible, whereas you never see it with this one. The stainless steel one also clogs much quicker! As I mentioned, I can do about 3 days with this one before it starts to drain slowly but the stainless steel one slows down drainage while I'm still in the shower the first day! Granted, I lose a lot of hair in the shower but still. When I eventually need to replace the stainless steel one, I'll be coming back to this one (and cleaning it out daily), even if that means replacing it every 8 months.

works great if you have long hair, have to clean daily keeps hair from clogging drain worth the price

This thing really works for gathering hair in the shower. It's easy and very clean. I would definitely recommend it.

I've known about the TubShroom for awhile but now, after dealing with a particularly bad hair clog, I decided to buy one and the results: It actually works. I shed a lot of hair in the shower and the TubShroom does a great job catching everything every time. Even shorter hair if you're one who likes to shave in the shower. If you're a long haired furball, you can overwhelm the TubShroom as your hair and soap wraps around the shaft. This is only a problem if you have a lot of hair and thankfully it's easy to tend to because you just pull up the shroom, pull off the hair, toss it aside and continue showering. Otherwise, if you have less hair to worry about, you can probably get a couple showers in before you need remove the built up hair. Yes, it's still a little icky having to dispose of the hair, but this makes it very convenient and easy. You can always wear some gloves or get someone else who isn't as squeamish to do it.

Works very well but will grow mold over time. The bottom of mine is all black with black mold and grime, and it doesn’t come off. Just replaced with the metal one and hope for a better outcome

This little gadget is honestly a lifesaver. We have three long, very fine haired ladies in the house and it catches everything before it becomes a plumbing problem. It is easy to put in, easy to pull out, and easy to clean, which makes regular maintenance way less annoying. For how inexpensive it is, it does an excellent job and has saved us from slow drains more than once. Well worth every cent in my opinion.

questo prodotto è fantastico!!!! nella mia doccia non si incastra perfettamente, quindi lo "appoggio" solo sopra lo scarico, ma funziona comunque perfettamente. tutti i capelli si attorcigliano e una volta finita la doccia si tolgono e buttano facilmente (consiglio di lasciare che si asciughi perchè i capelli vengono via subito). senza lo tubshroom ogni mese - mese e mezzo dovevo ricorrere all'idraulico liquido perchè lo scarico si rallentava, spendendo quindi 7-8 euro e rischiando di danneggiare i tubi con prodotti chimici. con questo prodotto invece ho speso 10 euro una volta sola, e gli scarichi non si ostruiscono più. davvero contentissima per un oggetto così piccolo, devo dire che è proprio utile.

Este filtro es perfecto para el desagüe de mi ducha. A menudo se atascaba con el cabello pero desde que lo compré no he vuelto a tener problemas. Es flexible y se pone, se retira y se limpia fácilmente. Excelente producto y muy resistente.

فعلا رائعة وعمليه

If the hair I lose in one shower were gathered together, I could probably knit a convincing toupee for a small dog. This thing catches an impressive amount of biological evidence. Is some hair slipping through? Maybe. I’m not a plumber or a detective. But judging by the "hairy pancake" I peel off this thing after a wash, my pipes are living their best life and I can only see this is as a positive. The "Wash Day" Routine: It’s not exactly a permanent fixture of my bathroom aesthetic. I treat it like a specialist tool—I pop it in for "Hair Wash Day" and once the crime scene is cleaned up, I swap it back for my nice, shiny plug. It’s like a temporary stunt double for my drain. Been tested more than 10 times, easily cleaned, it's soft so won't hurt toes if accidently kick in shower. Regarding the price, maybe on the higher end for material, but i guess it's worth the cost for saving on a expensive plumber to clear the pipes.

very good material and it catches all hair ... suitable for bathtub drain highly recommended مادة جيدة جدًا وتلتقط كل الشعر ... مناسبة لتصريف حوض الاستحمام موصى به للغاية
