Danco Bathtub Drain Hair Catcher with in-Drain Basket and Strainer Pegs, fits 1.8″ Tub Drains, Protects Drains from Clogs, White, (10306)

Works great, really catches every hair. Doesn’t mess with water flow. Does get a little gross and stained with time and needs to be replaced.

I'm from Afghanistan so needless to say, I've got a lot of hair. Thick and lots of it, length almost to my elbows .... My stylist says it's, "industrial strength", lol. This thing is a must for anyone in my category of hair! No need to try to salvage the loose handfuls of shedded hair while washing it (let's be honest here, ladies with lots of it know what I mean)... No need to call the apartment maintenance man or woman in, almost weekly. Or DIY, for the brave (definitely a nasty job when coming back up, blech!), to stop the slow or clogged drain that nastily causes water over the toes... Okay, TMI, just sayin... This works and it saves time in the shower and out! Some of the reviews I initially read here made me wonder (Whoa?!)... After your shower, you just pick it up and (You can use a tissue or paper towel if you prefer... I'm washable, so I'm not too germ-a-phobe to touch my own, just washed, hair.), it's a flexible rubbery material, with a loop in the center you can grab it by... You can flip it inside out and then grab the hair in one sweep. Trash. Done. I've used the ones at the pharmacy type stores that sell for around $1.99 and they don't really work. Any amount of hair doesn't allow water thru and you've gotta pick it up and grab the hair off every few minutes and by that time it's barely effective. This works because the little rubber spikes grab the hair before hitting the center where water goes thru. I clear mine after or before every shower but could probably go longer. It just seems gross to me to leave it longer than one shower. If I do forget it, my husband removes the thing altogether because, of course, he doesn't wanna look at a hair ball, lol. Thankfully, you can actually grab it by the loop with your toe, haha.. You do have to remove the drain part itself when using this but for me, it's worth it. If I want to take a bath, that part stays near by under our bathroom sink. Effective, four dollar, time-saver. I wash it every time I clean the tub and it stays white. No mold or mildew issues. We've been using the one we have for around ten months and it looks the same as when I bought it. Tempted to buy a couple more in case they ever get discontinued... It's a flawless design, in my opinion. I've shown it to family members who've immediately requested I order them one also. Smile. If you're purposely looking for an item such as this one, you've searched long enough. Do it! : ) Hope this helps!

This product works fine for me. Stays in place, no curling edges, catches lots of hair. The problem is that it's very difficult to clean out the hair when the hair is wet. The hair is all tangled on little knobbies and twirled around the haircatcher. I learned by accident that for some reason it's much easier to remove the hair after it is dry. However, I don't like to leave a hairy mess in the drain after my shower and certainly not when somebody else is going to use the shower after me. And even if no one else is taking a shower, when I leave the hair in the drain to dry, I inevitably forget about it until I am in the shower next time and have usually already turned the water on, re-wetting the hair and making it difficult to remove again.

I have lost count on how many times I have purchased these. Over the last several years I have tried others here and there but I always come back to these, so far nothing else has compared. They just seem to catch hair better than all the rest and with 3 women/teens in our family with long hair, hair in the drain is a constant issue. They are easy to clean out hair as needed and with the price so reasonable I don't mind replacing them every couple of months to keep them looking new (super white).

Does a good job keeping hair out of the drain

This review is for Danco Bathtub Drain Hair Catcher Snare and Strainer, White, 1-Pack (10306). First, the Pros: The product is effective at its purpose, which is to keep your tub or shower drain hair-free. The holes are large enough to let water drain (granting you consistently remove the hair - leaving the hair in the trap will prevent drainage just as it would if you allowed it to enter and clog the drain, obviously), but not so large as to allow hair to get through. Additionally, the barbs on the surface of the trap are an ingenious way to further ensure that hair does not sneak through any holes. This is probably the most effective trap I have used. The product is very easy to install. I like the handle - it makes it extremely easy to pick up, hold onto, etc. The Cons: The material is flimsy, and the edges will curl up a bit. However, I manage to suction them back to the tub well enough to maintain the effectiveness of the trap. Like pretty much any other drain trap, you need to remember to remove the trap from the drain between uses, and clean it regularly with a normal bathroom cleaning product, otherwise the underside is likely to get mildew or mold, and so is the inside of your drain. It's very easy to remove the hair; I'm not sure what the contrary reviews are doing that's making it so difficult. Do it when the hair is still wet, or do it when the hair is dry; either way, I have never had a problem, and my hair is roughly 1.5 feet long. My trap became discolored almost immediately. I live in a 130+ year-old house with moisture and mildew issues, so that's my disclaimer, but normally after I scrub the tub, it takes at least 5 days for the hints of orange mildew to appear again. This trap turned yellow after maybe 3 showers. No idea why, but it is rather unsightly even when there is no hair in it. Those are all pretty minor issues. My biggest issue with this drain trap is that its effectiveness makes it almost impossible to scrub clean. Since I have such a bad mildew problem, I need to clean everything in the bathroom once a week, lest it become orange and slimy. I try to clean this trap every other day (remove the hair, spray with cleaner, scrub the top and bottom), but it absolutely destroys my sponges with its barbs, and is much too flimsy to clean with a scrubbing brush... which means that I can never really get it clean. If I could find a drain hair trap as effective as this one, but a nice grey color, and easy to clean with a sponge or brush, I doubt I would ever use anything else again.

I have a ton of hair so this works great on catching my hair & not clogging the drain

by far my favorite hair catcher. come from a family filled with hairy hairy women and have a lot of experience with drain clogs. a plumber once came and he said it was the most hair he’d ever seen in a drain. this hair catcher is the only one that 100% works. all the others are too wide and our fine slippery hair goes right through the cracks. high quality and the white matches the color of the tub, so surprisingly subtle looking. super easy to clean and inexpensive to replace if need be. i buy them for all my showers and recommend to all my friends.

Works well in the shower to catch hair and prevent it from going down the drain. Much easier to clean than having to pull a disgusting mess out of the shower drain. Easy to clean. The only downside is that I can’t have it in the drain at the same time as the bathtub plug

La pieza cumple a la perfección su propósito, sólo que se pone amarilla y mancha la parte del lavamanos donde se apoya, por lo que requiere de mayor limpieza y cuidados, pero eso si... los cabellos quedan todos atrapados!!

This drain basket is very useful and keeps hair going into your drain. You must just clean it often.

Good at keeping hair out of the drain, wash in dish washer

Atrapa muy bien los cabellos en la regadera y no es molesto a la hora de bañarse.
