Longevity

Pros:

  • "This is my second one and this one is still as good as it was seven years ago."
  • "I bought this a year ago and it's still going strong."
  • "It lasts about 3 years before having to get a second one."
  • "I've been using this every few days for several months, and it works as well today as the first use."
  • "I must have bought this months ago now and it's still working!"
  • "Mine is over a year old and still works like it was brand new."
  • "I had one I used for 10 years. I moved and bought another one, and it’s just as good."

Cons:

  • "It just now got to where it's not sticking as well as it used to."
  • "The small suction cups no longer hold suction and it falls off within minutes."
  • "Got another one (this one) and I've only used it a couple times and the suction cups are already super weak."
  • "The first one wore out after a year or so. The suction cups eventually failed."
  • "I bought one of these about a year ago and it was great until it lost its suction from use."
  • "This was great at first but not long after I bought it half of the suction cups just press flat with no suction."
  • "But its January 2024, and it won't stick anymore! The suction cups keep inverting and do not adhere to the porcelain now."

Effectiveness

Pros:

  • "This works as you'd expect and adds several inches of water to your bath!"
  • "I can actually fully get in the bath now! Love it."
  • "This fixes that issue and it does so flawlessly."
  • "No more refilling the tub every 5 minutes! No more wasting water or getting out of the tub so as not to waste water! Works perfectly!"
  • "Such an easy solution to an annoying problem."
  • "This adds multiple inches of water and now I can bathe much more comfortably!"
  • "The tub stayed completely full past the overflow that this product covers."

Cons:

  • "Not only did the package arrive four days late, but it was covered in dust and dirt."
  • "Don’t waste your time or your money."
  • "Waste of money unless you want to buy a new one every 10 or so uses."
  • "Super annoying. Will take my business elsewhere in the future."
  • "Not sure if I got a defective one or what but after all the positive reviews I can’t believe how disappointing this thing is."
  • "The suction cups suck. I did exactly as the instructions said. I even cleaned off my tub surface with alcohol. Nothing worked."
  • "No suction power, barely adheres to tile, let alone a tub."

Customer Service

Pros:

  • "**UPDATE** I contacted the seller and they offered to send me a new one."
  • "A replacement arrived very quickly, but it was in even worse shape than the first one!!"
  • "I want to share it with all my bath-loving friends!!"

Cons:

  • "I also reached out to the seller and received no response after 7 business days. I’ll be returning for sure."
  • "I was really hoping this item to work since it has good reviews... Now that I missed the returning window, I'm stuck with this useless item."
  • "Gonna pass out of principal and find another company."
  • "Absolute biggest piece of crap I’ve ever bought."

Maintenance

Pros:

  • "I rinse it out and air dry it after each bath to prevent mildew."
  • "Removing is easy. I hang it by 1 suction cup near the window to dry out, no mold yet!"
  • "I've cleaned it in the dishwasher a few times (no heat drying cycle), which always removes any build up or soap scumminess from it."

Cons:

  • "This handy device has transformed my baths... be careful with leaving it in water between baths - mine got moldy."
  • "I got lazy and left it stuck to my tub constantly without rinsing it off ever, and after 2 years it has grown mold."
  • "The only downside is that it's hard to clean and once you use chemicals on it it doesn't stick as well."
  • "It is hard to clean because of the way the suction is set up so mold can grow in it after a year or two, so it does need to be replaced."

Installation

Pros:

  • "It's easy to apply and easy to remove."
  • "Just wet the suction cups and stick it on. So easy and so effective!"
  • "Works just as described. Suction cups stick and stay sealed very easily."
  • "Was very easy to put on. I was skeptical as to how it would work, but it does!!"
  • "It sticks easily and let's me have a nice deep bath without constantly refilling."
  • "Easy to place on top of wall drain and sticks on tightly for me to enjoy full bathtubs."
  • "This is a buy! Suction cups are flexible and stick to the tub!"

Cons:

  • "So you have to have a lot of surface area to put this since it’s kinda big."
  • "The suction cups decide to invert themselves one by one you have to fix them before you put it on every time and then after a few minutes it will fall off."
  • "Right away, one of the suction cups does not stay secured down and when you get it *kind of* attached to the wall, it comes off within 5 minutes."
  • "It sticks for about 10 minutes and then slowly slides up, unattaches from the wall, and then falls off."
  • "It constantly falls off and water will leak through it no mater how many times during my bath I’ll try and stick the side suction cups back on."
  • "The suction cups were not as effective and did not create an airtight seal, rendering the product useless."
  • "Does not suction to the tub. Suction cups collapse backwards when trying to apply for use."
