OXO Good Grips Silicone Shower & Tub Drain Protector

Great product, I honestly cannot give it enough credit. I’ve been using it for the last 3 years and 8 months, and it’s still going strong. It hasn’t developed any smell, hasn’t lost its shape, and the color looks just like new. I keep it in my shower and it works perfectly. It stays in place, doesn’t move around even with water running over it, and no hair gets past it while the water drains smoothly. Cleaning it is super easy; I only give it a quick clean once every few months and that’s more than enough. At first, it did seem a bit expensive compared to the cheaper alternatives on the market, but I’m so glad I went for this one. The quality speaks for itself it’s durable, reliable, and looks like it will last for many more years. Even after all this time, the price hasn’t changed, which says a lot about the consistency of the brand. I couldn’t be happier with this purchase. It does its job perfectly, just as described, and has exceeded my expectations in every way. Highly recommended!

I will upload a picture/video later but this thing fit so snugly and perfectly, at a glance you would think it's how the shower was supposed to be like! Functionwise it does the job and catches hair as it's supposed to. The silicone edges makes it stable and ensures that the filter doesn't move around. And the multiple holes/angle of the filter makes it not collect water. It's extremely easy to clean, just wipe away the caught hair with a tissue and it all easily falls off. The previous pre-built filter had a housing that encouraged bacteria growth, so it was a nightmare to clean. Because this is much more breathable, the whole thing should not catch as much bacteria as the plastic alternative.

EDIT (DOWNGRADE TO 4 STARS): After two months usage whilst showering it's become apparent that the drain guard does indeed stay down while using but I've noticed that's only because the guard slows down the amount of water that can fit down the drain, so your bathtub fills with an inch or two of water around the drain, this weight from the water keeps the drain cover in place. That's fine and it still works very well. However contrary to my original review, it's become apparent there is no actual "suction" from the device. It does not "stick" to the bath. It only stays in place due to the water weight on top. All it takes is one gentle kick or touch, and it will move. It is still a good product, but keep your eye on the cover, as it can move about very easily if you stand over the drain when showering! I have knocked off 1 star in the rating due to the cost, combined with the fact that it is flimsier to stay in place than previous thought. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I decided to buy this drain protector over cheaper ones due to the good reviews, and I'm sick of the gross task of clearing hair out a drain! I bought the bath one. My set-up is to shower whilst standing in a bath tub. After using it a few times now, and being someone who sheds an awful lot of hair - I have to say it does it's job perfectly. It fits the bathtub drain very well, and as advertised catches all the hair during a shower. The suction on it is very good, in fact, I am impressed that it still stays down, tightly sealed even when the bathtub has filled up with a few inches of water. I have checked under the cover to see how effective it's been - and it's caught every hair so far, not a single one escaped down the drain - Despite the protector being covered in hair. It is a small, simple product and so I do believe it's slightly expensive for what it is.

Superb product which actually does the job.

This filter does a really good job of preventing hairs blocking the plughole. It is easy to use and clean.

Does as it says. It catches the hair and fits perfectly over my press up/down plug

So my shower is at the opposite end of the drainage, and I think that's something relevant. Because maybe that's why the water and soap don't go through easily. Yes, it looks amazing and it feels like good quality, and yes it keeps all the hair from going through. But yes, it also keeps the soap floating in the tub and the water takes ages to go. So in the end, I need to take it off and let everything go through (with some hairs, unfortunately). But I guess if you have the shower head right above it, there shouldn't be any problem? As the pressure of the water will help the flow.

J'étais un peu inquiète au regard de certains commentaires, mais ce produit est génial ! Mes cheveux longs n'avaient de cesse d'obstruer la bonde en relief de la douche. Le bac n'étant pas totalement lisse, je craignais que ce filtre ne tienne pas au fond. Or, si ! Il ne bouge pas (la partie métallique sur le dessus sert de plomb). Certes, l'eau s'évacue un peu plus doucement, mais ce n'est vraiment pas un problème. Merci beaucoup pour cette invention !!!

Not heavy enough to stay where is suppose to be in a storm

Die Qualität ist erstklassig. Der Edelstahl ist robust und rostfrei, während der Gummirand für einen perfekten Sitz im Abfluss sorgt. Kein Wasser läuft mehr am Sieb vorbei - ein großer Pluspunkt für die Hygiene in der Küche. Was mich besonders überzeugt, ist die Funktionalität. Der erhöhte Rand hält selbst kleinste Speisereste zuverlässig zurück, ohne den Wasserablauf zu behindern. Die Reinigung ist dank des herausnehmbaren Siebeinsatzes ein Kinderspiel - einfach ausklopfen und fertig! Der Griff ist ein Geniestreich. Er ist groß genug für eine sichere Handhabung, auch mit nassen oder seifigen Händen. Gleichzeitig stört er nicht beim Stapeln von Geschirr im Becken. Die Größe passt perfekt in Standard-Abflüsse und der schlichte, elegante Look fügt sich nahtlos in jede Kücheneinrichtung ein.

I was worried that went the water level in the tub surpasses the hair drainer, it will float up, but it does not :D! It has successfully caught all my hair, covered the unremovable pop-up drain, and stayed in place. ALso easy to clean too

Second and third purchase. This works great and fits well but only if you shed moderate amount of hair when bathing. The drain does flow slower than if you use it but it might be marginal depending on your shower flow.
