Mainstays Water-Repellent Fabric Shower Liner, 70" x 72", Gray

Mainstays Water Repellent Microfiber Fabric Shower Liner, 70 x 72 in., White: I have owned several of this curtain. Easy to install %26 machine wash. I go through one a year because of being in humid South Florida. Very well priced %26 nice quality.

This lightweight cloth shower liner is water-repellant, meaning that water doesn't go through it when used for normal showers. Instead, water beads up and runs down the liner. Even with direct spray, as long as there isn't a lot of pressure, water will run down the liner instead of through it. If you spray it directly, water can go through it, but it takes some saturation first. I use this liner as my sole shower curtain with no water escaping the shower stall as long as the bottom edge is tucked inside the stall. I love that the liner is embossed rather than smooth. It just looks better that way in my opinion, and it also seems to help with repelling water. Another thing I love about this liner over other styles is that it has reinforced buttonholes for hanging by shower rod hooks. Most have a metal rivet which will not only rust, but looks stark and industrial. The generous reinforced buttonholes "disappear" when hung with rod hooks and they always look fresh and clean. The bottom corners of the liner are weighted with magnets. My shower stall isn't metal, but the weight of the magnets is enough to keep the corners weighted down and the shower liner in place. The liner is slow to mildew and is easily machine-washable. It's lightweight and durable. I've used these for years and have quite a few that I use as dust covers and drop cloths around the house when needed. I have white, and it's a bright, clean white. I use bleach in the wash to kill any mildew and to keep them bright white, but I don't think it's necessary.
