We have the curtain now 3 weeks in use. Granted 100% it is not watertight, when taking a shower for a while it directly, there after calming time a small spray outside the tub. But an absolutely dense fabric curtain I have not found it yet, our last was just as tight and was a 50-EUR mark curtain. Who wants to have 2-3 drops before the tub, should bring NEN plastic curtain. In addition, one is indeed in the shower to shower and not only on the curtain. However we have not washed it, in my experience to be textile curtains after the first wash usually leaky. I will then possibly even report when the time comes and he has turned the first laps in the machine :)
06/2014 Meanwhile, we have the curtain for 2 years. We wash it about every 2 months 30 ° normal wash cycle. He has so far survived and lime and approaches of mold are always gone out properly all washes. Only at the edge solve now a few threads and the weight of rubber band is no longer straight but porous, but that's the inside that does not matter, does not hold out just as pretty.
