Our customers are passionate about keeping their bathroom drains clog-free. Who wants to spend all that time cleaning out their drains or invest all that money on harmful chemicals or pricey plumber visits? Our SinkShroom solution is the best preventative measure you could take against clogged drains. It's patent-pending design is just what the drain doctor ordered.

We know some of you want to make a statement with your bathroom accessories so we've made the SinkShroom available in six striking colors. You can blend in naturally with your bathroom by going with Neutral Gray, Clean White, or even Titan Clear. Or you could add a splash of fun and color with Marina Blue, Organic Green, or Autumn Orange options. Keep your drains clear and have fun while doing it.

The TubShroom and SinkShroom designs have been carefully crafted to ensure optimal water-flow while preventing any hair or other objects from getting into your drains. Clogs are caused by an accumulation of hair, soap scum, and other objects.

The SinkShroom fits in any standard 1.25" bathroom sink drain, which is virtually all of them out there. Most sink drains have a pop up or screw-in stopper that can be removed before placing the SinkShroom in. Other stoppers can be unscrewed from under the sink.

Our Mushroom-like look was inspired by none other than Mother Nature. SinkShroom is made to pop out of your drain by about half an inch so water continues to flow freely while all the hair is neatly wrapped around the base, completely out of sight. Clean up is a breeze!

We're not fans of pollution or waste. If we can solve multiple problems with new products, then we're doing something right. Thousands of gallons of harmful chemical drain cleaners are poured down drains worldwide. Not only are the fumes dangerous, these acid-based solutions often wear pipes down quicker and go back into the environment. We hope to be able to help completely eliminate the ongoing use of these harmful options. On top of that, we wanted to create something that saves people hassle and money. With multiple pets in our household and long human hair to contend with, we were faced with the annoying task of clearing clogged drains all too often. Enter SinkShroom.

Describe your product in 3 words.

Ultimate Drain Protection.

How did you come up with the idea for this product?

My wife and I both have long hair. And we have several pets in the house. Just try to imagine the number of times our drain has clogged over the years from all that hair and the amount of time and money we had to spend to keep it clear. There had to be a better way. It took years of brainstorming to come up with, what we think, is the perfect solution.

What makes your product special?

First and foremost… it works great. If it solved the problem of clogged drains for us and for our friends, we're certain it will do the same for you. It's made of durable, high-quality materials that should last as long as your bathroom does. No cheap plastics that can crack and bend over time. We took the idea to the crowdfunding world and the response was overwhelming. We're proud of this little product because we feel it's a clever solution to a real problem out there. The only downside is that plumbers and drain cleaner manufacturers may not like us very much after this.

What has been the best part of your startup experience?

The best part was seeing the product come to life, so to speak. It's our baby now and every person that it helps along the way will bring a big old smile to our faces. The positive feedback from early supporters and early testers has motivated us to get SinkShroom in as many drains as possible. We've learned so much about the process, about ourselves, and about new ways we can potentially improve the bathroom experience down the road.
