The problem is this: THEY NEVER EVER STAY.
In my pursuit to make the chore of shaving less of a chore, I recently purchased a fog-free mirror that goes in the shower.
I've always been intrigued by the idea of shaving in the shower. Less messy, seems quicker, etc. If there's any way to cut a minute or two from the morning routine, therefore adding cherished minutes of glorious sleep, I'm all for it.The fact that all it would take is a little slip of the fingers, some fairly reliable gravitational pull and a some bad luck for the razor to have a nasty run in with my... ummm... junk definitely adds an element of danger. Even WITH the with the protective, rubbery edge that's supposed to "raise and lift my beard" I'm not completely comfy with the situation. Especially when you consider the razor is the a Super Stealth Mach 9 Turbo, with 10 blades. That's just tempting fate!
But, I live on the edge.
So, I went for it. Bought a fog-free mirror for shaving in the shower. It has a reservoir behind the mirror that ya fill up with warm water to keep the mirror from fogging. It slowly leaks out so that it doesn't get moldy and disgusting. THAT part worked great.
But the suction cups? Not so much.
I scrubbed the tile before sticking. A couple hours later, mirror fell.
I moistened the suction cups as directed. Same result.
I tried to go dry. Didn't work.
I tried with both surfaces soaked. Nope.
I thought maybe I have some exceptionally porous shower tile. So, I tried to stick them to a mirror. I later returned only to find the suction cups on the floor once again.
Bottom line: While suction cups SEEM like they're super-fucking cool, they really suck. But not enough. Which means they SUCK!
That's all I'm sayin.
