Effortless and it works. Just measure your drain before you buy.
Before buying, I measured the perimeter of the flat ring of my bathtub drain (2.9in), which is just a little bigger than the OXO drain protector (2.8in). It sits well and looks like it's a permanent part of the tub, compared to my last drain protector -- a translucent rubbery flower dome with suction cups that gets grimey and never looks motivating to clean. This OXO drain protector does well catching hair, although it still clogs only because I use a thick conditioner that seems to gum up at the bottom of the tub anyway. This drain protector is at least easy enough to just lift, wipe, and plop back into the tub. I give this 5 stars because it fits my drain well, looks good, is hassle-free to clean, and I really can't ask for a full-proof, non-clogging one that also catches hair for this price. As long as there's a flat surface for a 0.8in rubber ring to sit, it should work. Just make sure that the flat surface is free from any debris and then add bit of water before inserting the OXO drain protector to get a little extra seal.
