Is the fabric of this shower curtain treated with water repellent or would one still need a plastic liner?

I'm not sure if it is. I use a plastic liner with it, so I would do that to be on the safe side.

I don't know if it's been treated. It's not advertised as having been. The material feels heavy enough to use without a liner but I am using one. Sorry that I can't be of more help!Okay, I am now using it without a liner. I would say no, there is definitely no need for one. Am very pleased with the curtain!

You will need a liner but it's still well worth it for a nature themed bathroom

It is plastic so it can be wiped down but my mom uses a liner behind it to prevent any mildew problems!

It is very lightweight but I am not sure what it is made of. Definitely not polyester...perhaps vinyl. You would not want to curl up in this shower curtain like a blanket, but it is less stiff than, say, a plastic curtain. I like it for the most part - it serves its purpose and it looks nice. Although the very very bottom has started to look darker from mildew, so it needs to be washed. TMI. Hope I helped!

The package says it's water repellant, but I always use a liner. Let me tell you, you won't be sorry you bought this, it is beautiful. Saw it a Bed, Bath, Beyond for more money. Love it!

Yes! The inside of the shower liner repels water! I have the fabric liner and a fabric shower curtain. The liner has never leaked through to the shower curtain!!

It's water resistant but still a fabric. Our son still wets through his PJs on occasion and it hasn't seemed to wet the mattress, but it is fabric, not plastic like his old one. If you're expecting big messes, waterproof covering may be a good idea, but we didn't want him sleeping on plastic. So far so good on this, and it's sturdy and comfortable.

it is light weight plastic. It doesn't work as a shower curtain without a liner because it blows around. It does look great though.

It is fabric and would need a liner. I've gotten several compliments on the look though!

The shower curtain it self is fabric. The idea of the liner is to keep the water from wetting the fabric.I think the liner could be a heavier material. Fabric liner would have to be treated to keep water from soaking curtain.

Wow, I didn't even realize there was plastic in there because it is concealed in the hem at the bottom. Just FYI, the seam is folded on the outside, but done nicely so I think it would work as a curtain liner...neat idea!

This is a very pretty and thick enough shower curtain but I always use a liner to keep it from getting wet. I say "yes" it needs one. I am very pleased with this shower curtain. I love the pictures that are in the material. I got the red and white one. I don't know if it comes in any other color or not. I have had mine for quite a while. Hope this helps!

Hi Sierra, the quality is comparable to some of the better-vinyl shower curtains found at Target-level stores. As for the thickness, I wish I had a .mil rating with which to offer you a quantitative answer. However, I can tell you that whiîe I do use a clear liner with mine (to keep the curtain itself cleaner/decrease laundering), due to the curtain's frosted background, you may find a liner to be unnecessary. NB: After nearly one year, my PEVa-Owl-curtain has held-up very nicely thru several trips in the gentle cycle. Colours remain bright, and the article continues to add a delightful, whimsical air to the bathroom where it hangs. --C.C., Amazon Prime Member-Reviewer Hi Sierra, the quality is comparable to some of the better-vinyl shower curtains found at Target-level stores.

It's a plastic material I would have preferred fabric to be able to wash it as well however I love the print. I use a plain white liner on the inside close to the shower to save the life of the printed one. Hope this helps.

Hi! This is a plastic curtain shower, so it's waterproof. You will not regret buying it, I have it since a couple of months and still looking fine. :) regards.

I just took a closer look at it and there isn't plastic, but it is hemmed towards the front for use in a shower, so water doesn't collect and mildew. I would definitely buy them because the material in pretty and has a really nice hand. If they do show under your curtains you could easily turn them around or re-hem. You gave me a great idea for the future.

No, it is not waterproof and does not have a plastic liner. It is quilted cotton.

I don t understand your question, but the top part of the curtain is transparent and the liner snaps in under it. I had the plastic snap in liner and it was great and washed up nice in the washer. I have changed it to a fabric liner and like it even better. I am very happy with this product and highly recommend it
