OXO Good Grips Bathtub Drain Protector

This drain protector does an excellent job. It stays in place, allows water to flow down the drain well without backing up, and prevents hair from going down the drain too. I've had a few types of drain protectors over the years, and this one is the best by far.

Effortless to use! Remains clean and protects your drain from clogs.

This drain cover mostly sits snug in the drain hole. Make sure to measure your drain and order the correct size. It should fit perfectly over the drain. It has no suction cups, but the silicone grips well without it. This drain cover does the job for a regular amount of running water from a shower head. However, if you have a faucet on the bottom that sprays directly over this drain cover, the cover will get moved out of the way. If you have a facuet that pushes this out, it works well with a more sturdy top drain cover, possibly with suction. If you use a higher drain cover that fits over this drain cover you should block 99% of any head hair, body hair, or other debris going down the drain. Needless to say, stopping hair from going down the drain will slow water drainage. You may need to clean this out every time you shower if you want the drain to work properly. You need to sacrifice some drainage flow rate if you want to catch the hairs going down. Be careful removing the hairs from this if you are actively showering. You may take the cover off the drain and send a clump of hairs down on accident. Cleaning this is extremely easy. It does tend to collect soap scum. Most stuff will rinse off with some light scrubbing with your fingers. If the mess lingers you might need some cleaner. Tldr; If you have a faucet that may push this off the drain, this may not be for you if you are looking for a single drain cover. Otherwise works great, especially with another top drain cover with suction or holding power.

Love these drain protectors. I have quite a considerable mane of hair, so a "hair snare" of some sort is necessary. In the past, I've used multiple types in the past, most of which were plastic/synthetic and they all had unfavorable issues. The POSITIVE points: - Holes are small enough to catch hair, but large enough to allow water to flow through easily. You don't end up standing in a tub full of water. - This particular model is perfect size for the drain in a tub/shower combination. OXO also makes one for the larger size shower drains. - The synthetic ring helps it to gently cling to the drain area, without impeding the flow of water and hair catching ability. The weight is substantially more for this design (stainless), than most others (plastic), but not too heavy. Just a nice, yet appropriate heft. - The stainless steel is durable and rust proof. - The hair is very easy to remove from the protector, just lift it off, it doesn't cling or go in the holes making it tangle. - AAA+++ all the way, another winning design by OXO (and NO I wasn't paid, nor did I receive anything for my review!) Just a darn good product. The NEGATIVE points: - None really - One customer complained that it wouldn't stay put while he was taking a bath. Note to that customer: Sir, you have a physics problem. NO drain protector is designed to stay put during a bath, you see the force of the water swishing around, negates the natural weight and design of this product or any drain protector for that matter - hence the water 'current' moves it. You don't need the drain protector whilst taking a bath anyway, you need it when the tub is draining. Place the drain protector over the drain when you switch from bathing to draining; it will work fine. If for some reason, you do still want one that stays put while bathing, try one of the plastic ones with suction feet on the bottom. I can tell you though, after using MANY drain protectors, this one is far and away the best I've encountered. Used properly, it's a winner!

Perfect fit amazing how much stuff it traps!! Would definitely buy this again.

The best. Swipe hair off the surface as it accumulates. And let the gasket air out after use for longevity. We've tried several other hair catchers, the mushroom, the bristle one, they still clog and don't clean off quickly. This OXO is the most simple and effective.

We used this product in a standard bathtub. This worked well for longer strands of hair but shorter ones definitely fell through the holes. It stayed in place over the drain, although at times would slip slightly and have to be readjusted. Works as intended, but in an older home with old plumbing I looked elsewhere for something that could catch ALL the hair.

Fits perfectly over the bathtub drain to catch hair while still being really low profile, and the rubber seal helps it stay a little in place as well while the faucet is running.

Muito bom

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.

TLLEGO MUY RAPIDO Y ESTA MUY PADRE PERO PENSE QUE ERA MAS GRANDE, QUE QUEDABA SOBRE LA CONTRACANASTA DE LA TARJA Y QUEDA POR DENTRO, PERO YO TENGO UN EMPAQUE POR DENTRO POR ESO SI QUEDA, SI NO, SE VA HASTA EL FONDO. EN REALIDAD NO SE PARA QUE TIPO DE DESAGÜE ES. PERO ESTA BONITO

I came across this drain protector many times but always hesitated to purchase it because it doesn't have suction cups or any way for it to stay in place. The UMBRA "starfish" drain protector I had been using for a couple of years was very yellowed and still allowed hair to get through some of the gaps between its suction cups. I finally decided to purchase the OXO drain protector and I honestly wish I had bought this in the first place! It doesn't need suction cups. The weight of it allows it to stay in place on its own. It's fantastic at catching hair while still allowing the water to flow through. This small drain protector fits perfectly over my traditional bathtub drain. (The old-fashioned type that uses a round rubber stopper on a chain.) But I also purchased 2 of the larger OXO drain protectors for my modern stand-up showers. They work amazingly. The trapped hair is extremely easy to remove afterwards too. I have seen absolutely no hair get through the drain protector! 10/10 would recommend!

Parfait. S’adapte parfaitement et ne glisse pas
