Guthand
Shower squeegee

The Guthand shower squeegee made a very good impression in the test.
The product enables perfect cleaning of the shower and directly solves the problem of storing the shower squeegee. The mounting hook supplied for the shower squeegee is made of stainless steel and fits almost any shower wall. One drawback, however, is that the shower hook does not prevent it from touching the glass wall and the manufacturer has unfortunately not included any instructions for use in the packaging.
On a positive note, there are a lot of accessories and a replacement lip is also included, which can lead to a very long service life .
It should also be emphasized that the shower hook and the shower squeegee will enhance any bathroom thanks to their simple and modern design .
In addition, there are no unpolished edges or manufacturing defects on the shower squeegee.

Advantages

✅ High-quality design
✅ easy installation and use
✅ Family-run German company

Disadvantages

❌ unfortunately use of plastic bags for packaging
❌ No customer hotline available
❌ No instructions for use available

The test

General information

We have looked at and tested the product in detail in a practical test. In the following, we take a closer look at the features and impressions. The product is subjected to our test procedure from the packaging, materials and quality to the range of functions and handling.
To give you a quick overview, we work with a points system. The maximum possible number of points per area is 100 points. The final overall score is calculated from the average of all tested features, taking into account the respective weightings.

The first impression

Packaging and labeling

ℹ️ Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be ensured.

Verpackung des Duschabziehers
Packaging of the shower squeegee

The Guthand shower squeegee arrived for our test in the typical shipping box, so it was easy to open by removing the adhesive strip and was delivered undamaged.
The box contained the shower squeegee wrapped in plastic film, a replacement blade, an adhesive shower hook and a shower hook for hanging on the shower wall.
Unfortunately, plastic was used in the packaging of the product to prevent soiling. In this case, the product was fully protected and the shower squeegee was therefore in perfect condition.
Unfortunately, the packaging of the shower squeegee is not completely recyclable.
The first impression is very good, as neither the product nor the packaging used was damaged.

After unpacking

Package contents and instructions

ℹ️ Most people’s first impression after unpacking is immediately memorable. Are the contents of the package complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

*The maximum score is 100 points

After unpacking, I found the shower squeegee, a replacement shower lip, an adhesive shower hook, a shower hook to hang on the shower wall and an anti-slip sticker on the bathroom floor.
The product does not come with an instruction manual , which is not necessary for use, but a note on changing the wiper blade would have been nice. This information can still be found on the Amazon page, but a text on the packaging or similar would have been easier for the user.
Unfortunately, the customer is not given a customer hotline to contact. However, it is possible for customers to contact customer service via the email address provided. This information is printed directly on the outside of the packaging and can be easily viewed by the customer.
All in all, however, this is a very good way to send a product.

Montierter Duschabzieher im Test
Mounted shower squeegee in the test

The Guthand brand shower squeegee makes a very good visual impression in the test. In addition to its simple design, it has no manufacturing defects.
The shower squeegee is made of stainless steel and the shower lip is made of silicone, making it perfect for use in the shower. The anti-slip sticker supplied ensures that the shower squeegee remains firmly in the hand during use and that the wiping results are flawless.
The product impresses with its reasonable weight and sturdy workmanship. The customer is supplied with a shower squeegee that can serve the customer well.
Unfortunately, there is no information about the sustainability of the product, but we assume that it has a long service life due to the high-quality materials used.

This is what our practical test showed

Does the manufacturer keep its advertising promises?

ℹ️ Our practical test is the most relevant and therefore the most important. Here, the product has to undergo a wide range of criteria and tests. We check the functions and product promises of the test article.

*The maximum score is 100 points

We really enjoyed using the Guthandshower squeegee during the test. It is very easy to use.
In our test, the shower squeegee was used on a standard shower wall and tiled wall. In addition to its good workmanship, the product scored particularly well in that it easily removes even very wet areas. Nevertheless, it takes a little getting used to, as the shower lip wobbles slightly when using the shower squeegee, which we have not experienced with other products in this category.
The shower squeegee is more than suitable for bathroom needs and is also super easy to store thanks to the shower hook supplied. The disadvantage here, however, is that the shower hook for attaching to the shower wall does not guarantee that the shower squeegee will stay away from the glass surface.
The shower squeegee can be used both as a squeegee for window/glass surfaces and as a shower squeegee.
The shower squeegee looks great in any bathroom. It is particularly important to emphasize that the shower dries very easily.

Price/performance ratio

and ratings from consumers

ℹ️ Finally, we look at how the product compares to the competition. Can it keep up with the competition in terms of price and quality? Would we generally recommend buying it? We also examine consumer ratings and check whether the critical and positive reviews are actually justified.

CriterionRemarkScore achieved*
Price / performance ratioGood price-performance ratio90 points
Rating cut4.5 out of 5.0 stars on Amazon75 points
Total83 points
Weighting: 20%
*The maximum score is 100 points

On the Amazon platform, consumers have given the product an average rating of 4.5 stars. One criticism is that the handle of the shower squeegee is quite small. Many customers like the fact that the wiping result is flawless, the quality of the product is very good and the shower hook fits the product very well. We were also able to confirm these points in our practical test.

Prices of up to €36.99 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very inexpensive products are available from as little as €6.99. With a price of € 17.99, the Guthand shower squeegee is therefore in the middle price segment in our test. The price ratio is good for the quality and range of services you get.
