Nothing has been able to do that until now.”

TubShroom Tub Drain Hair Catcher
If your shower drain is constantly clogged from shedding hair, then you know the frustration of blacked up water and costly plumber visits. Prevent this mess altogether by popping a TubShroom Hair Catcher into your standard 1.5-inch tub drain or 1.5-inch bathroom sink drain. It discreetly holds hair while allowing water to flow freely.
“Two women sharing a shower is a recipe for a nightmare of clogged drains, and all sorts of ‘as seen on TV’ gizmos to remove or prevent them. Every solution left something to be desired,” wrote one of almost 7,500 five-star reviewers. “After having used the TubShroom for a while I can finally say my search for a solution has ended. It's simple, it works, and when you step on it by accident it just squishes flat instead of trying to impale you like the spiky things do. Cleaning is simpler, too. Just remove it and pull the hair off the bottom.”

Boy, has this little device proved me wrong!” wrote an enamored reviewer. “Imagine delicious, perfectly popped corn with no oil in the microwave! Sure, it took a little experimentation with my different corns to get the amounts and timing correct, but I am so glad I gave this a try and took the time to get my formula just right.

We’ve since cleaned a weird chalky film off our garage door, removed wall markings and cleaned my storm door. We’ll never be without a jar (or three) of this stuff."

"I use the frother for my morning coffee, where I add collagen powder and a liquid creamer," a shopper shared. "The power button is easy to push and responsive enough that if I want to 'slow down' it'll do so. The frother tip is small but really effective and creates a vortex in the coffee cup. Cleanup is easy: put the metal wand end (not the handle) in a small stream of water from the faucet, and then turn it on so the frother tip spins under the water."
