What kind of bathtub/shower grips do you use?

1 Answer

Answer :

I never use these. I grew up in the 70s, when everyone had these on their tubs, and the whole idea of them freaks me out a little. The tub itself is an easy surface to clean; any non-grip surface is not. I see the grips as little oases of bacterial and fungal growth. If I encounter them outside my home, I step gingerly between them to ensure that my feet will stay clean.
