The patent-pending ShowerShroom® Stealth borrows from much of the same technology found in our original TubShroom®. To provide superior protection to every drain in the home, we knew we had to tackle the shower next. Ask yourself the following questions: How many strainers have I gone through in the past couple of years? How easy is it to clean my current strainer? Is my current strainer an eyesore? Does the water continue to back up every time I take a shower? How much do I dislike putting my hands on disgusting clumps of wet hair? We addressed all these concerns. The All-New ShowerShroom Stealth drain hair catcher collects every hair out of sight without stopping the flow of water. Plumbers around the world agree that hair is the number one cause of clogged drains. In other words, hair is public enemy number one, so to speak. ShowerShroom Stealth catches all types of hair--whether it's human or of the pet variety--without you having to lift a finger. The problem with most other strainers is that hair is caught in plain sight which can get unsightly and gross real quick. No more clogs means no more pricey plumber bills! Don't worry, the ShowerShroom Stealth shower drain cover won't impede water flow and it works great for tubs, showers, and even bathroom sinks. The top "umbrella" covers the inner chamber where the water and hair flows through. The hair is neatly caught on the inner cylinder--out of sight--until you're ready to clean it out with a paper towel. Many strainers out there are of the disposable variety but we believe in sustainability so our new strainer is built to last the test of time.
