Would this suction onto a bath tub surface? My pop-up drain won't close all the way, so I need something to use over it as a stopper.

I would guess that it would if the size fit and the tub surface is smooth. I may try that my self. But, I must bring a large size home from the office. 4/22/15I tried it. Doesn't work.

It will not suction over a drain bc the drain itself breaks the suction as air fills the cup.

I can't get mine to suction over the drain in my tub, but you can get a stopper at any hardware store.

I like to clean the tub before around the drain then on a wet surface put down the stopper press down a little and then fill with water. It works just fine. I have a toddler and she even knows how to use it. Great and easy product to use.

I don't have a pop, up in the drain o use it in. I use it in a showed drain. It drains slowley with the hair snare so I wouldn't recommend using it with a pop up.

It just slides down in the water over your existing drain cover. Use your long pole to finish putting it in place (or just get in the water get down there to place it). Every once in a while though the cleaner stops on top (suction will cause it to stop) but when the cleaner starts up again, it will move away on its own (or you can move it with the pole if you want)

in the center. the pop up does not work well, either. the drain does stay closed, but you have to pry it open and place it to the side in order to drain the tub. if you put the top back in the drain hole, the top closes and the water will not drain out.

If you are saying that the drain in the bottom of your tub is stuck open then no, it won't help you. This product is not the solid dome that it might appear to be, it actually has a hole cut in the side so when the water reaches that level it will still allow it to drain out; all it does is allow you to raise the level above the existing drain level. Sorry, good luck with your problem.

Somehow.. it just stays. Perhaps because its really low profile (thin but sturdy) so it doesnt have much of an edge to catch. And the black rubber ring creates friction to keep it put, even against a plastic bottomed tub. Also, perhaps because logistically the drain that its covering is only 1 inch from the tub edge and if you try to stand that close to the shower front youre either punching your shin into the faucet or hitting your head on the shower spout. haha, but that last part is for fun.. good luck with your purchase. Its a lot of thinking for a ten dollar widget

Buy without the overflow. The overflow pop-up has an opening that drains water from the over flow. If your sink is not designed for it, then that overflow opening might allow water out of the drain

This device did not work for my bathroom's bathtub drainage pipes. I did not attempt to use it on gutters. Since it did not work for my drainage pipes I would say it probably would not work your gutters.

The popup matched nicely. But I forgot about the overflow!?! If you cut a length off the bottom (approx. 1 1/4") and epoxy it to the inside diameter of the overflow, you will solve your problem. I was in a pinch for the holiday and needed to finish this project. Otherwise I would have found a non overflow product.

I bought two to use on a huge sink and didn't use anything to stop it up. Mine uses a umbrella drain

Yes, I think it would, as long as your drain opening is standard size. It works well in my laundry tub which has a drain larger than a bath tub but smaller than a kitchen drain. The stopper is a fairly generous size

Well, I left water in my sink with the Tub Stopper while I went for a walk, and it worked fine. I guess it depends on the shape and size of your sink drain, but for my average big box store sink, it worked great. I'm actually glad to know that! Hope it works for you!

Unfortunately it does not fit on the tub spout. I was very disappointed when I received mine. I even tried attaching it to the bathroom sink and that was even more disastrous. Hope this helps.

That's the reason I bought it for our kitchen sink. It works fine! Youpp just have to keep the rubber stopper down as the water starts to flow into the tub. The incoming water may pull the stopper up. Give it a minute and the pressure will keep it down. Works great.

I also had a pop up drain but it was attached via single screw in the center. Once I removed the screw the top came right out and I was able to put the hair catcher in. Since the pop up cap was removed I can no longer fill the tub without putting it back in. Hope that helps.

If you are talking about the drain in the bottom of the tub, then no it won't. This device has a large hole shown on the top side if you look at the photo of it in use. The device fits over the overflow on the side of the tub, so it effectively raises the level where the water would flow into the overflow drain. The hole at the top provides a safety drain so the water doesn't overflow the tub.
