InterDesign Leaves Shower Curtain, Brown

This was exactly as pictured and fit perfectly with my bathroom design scheme. Other reviews indicate that some were expecting a heavier fabric, but this is the typical thin polyester you find with standard shower curtains and fabric liners (which was exactly what I expected). I would not describe it as vinyl-like by any stretch of the word.

Because the fabric is polyester, you can use it without a lining, but I like the look better when I leave the curtain hanging out of the tub, so I have a clear plastic liner for the inside. I also recommend a light, low-temp ironing before hanging, for a nice, smooth look without the folding creases form packaging.

I was a bit worried at first when we received this shower curtain, since the fabric seemed like it would need to be used with a liner. However, we decided to give it a go on its own and it's been great. The fabric is quick drying, and so we've not had any problems with mildew. Also, the weight of this shower curtain is perfect. It's light enough that it lets light into the shower (which we needed since the only lights in our bathroom are above the sink) and you can see through it easily when you're looking out towards the light; but without backlighting its hard to even see the silhouette of the person in the shower.

I'm just not crazy about the quality of the product, but, for the price, I can't complain too much. The item is a 100% polyester fabric curtain; I overlooked the 100% polyester description which is admittedly my own fault. The curtain feels/looks a bit cheap, but, again, considering the price-point...

The curtain also came with a small dirty smudge near the grommets. I just didn't have time to return it, so I am hopeful that will come out with a run through the washing machine.

I would definitely purchase a white liner for the curtain to increase the curtain's opacity. I purchased a clear liner which probably doesn't decrease the cheapy look.
