I decided to purchase this product because it had many very positive reviews, but in the end, I didn’t get the level of effectiveness I expected for the price.
Drain type: Horizontal (87 cm)
Installation method: Installed three pieces so that there are no gaps on either side
Hair type: Soft long hair (50 cm) and short straight hair (under 10 cm)
Usage period: 3 weeks
Test method: Placed a mesh over the drain and observed whether there were hairs that the DrainDodger failed to catch. After each shower, I cleaned the hair that the DrainDodger collected.
The DrainDodger was not able to catch as much hair as I had expected. I could even visually confirm my (male) short hair passing right through it.
My wife’s long, soft hair was no exception—it also slipped through.
Based on my impression, about 20–30% of the hair seems to pass through each time. Over the course of a week, an uncountable amount of hair ends up accumulating on the mesh.
It’s true that it catches a significant amount of hair, but whether it actually reduces the need to clean the drain is questionable.
Considering the price, I had high expectations, so this was disappointing.
I hope this helps.
