The banneton was great, the free cloth liner in it not so much. Dough stuck to it no matter how much flour you rub it with, cloth just too rough should have been better quality or made from different material, Would have like it better if cloth was left off order, avoided lots of trouble.

Love it except for the plastic liner so I ordered a fabric liner.  So nice to be able to change the liner without buying a whole new curtain.

Definitely get a liner, because your clothes will get caught on the wicker. It also had a strong paint smell, so I left it in the garage for about a day or so and the smell tapered off.

This InterDesign shower curtain or liner (I call it a liner) is made of 100% EVA and is PVC free. That's really important because a traditional vinyl liner with PVC is toxic and unhealthy. PVC is a known toxic chemical that off gasses that awful, strong plasticky odor you smell when you take a new vinyl shower curtain out of the package, and it will continue to off gas chemicals into the home. Even more chemicals off gas when the liner gets warm from the shower.

Although this InterDesign liner is vinyl that still has some other chemicals and is not a fully "green" product, it is significantly safer than a vinyl liner with PVC and worth paying more for than regular vinyl, in my opinion. Truly chemical free liners are made of materials like organic cotton, linen or hemp and can be very expensive. Many if us don't have the funds to buy a totally chemical free liner, so this InterDesign EVA liner may be the next best thing as it's a much safer alternative to a vinyl liner with PVC. My understanding is polyester curtains are another PVC free option.

The InterDesign liner doesn't have that awful PVC odor, though I could smell a hint of plastic when I first removed it from the package. The liner is clear but frosted (no blue tone) with an embossed floral design. The plastic is rather thin and not weighted at the bottom unlike polyester liners I've used for many years bought over the years- but it isn't floating up and it's keeping the water in the shower/tub. It can be used alone, but I prefer a sheer curtain to cover the liner as I already have a decorative curtain, and it adds more privacy as the plastic liner is somewhat see through.

My only disappointment is the label says to wipe the InterDesign liner clean as I'm used to throwing my polyester liners in the washer with soap and vinegar for easy cleaning. But the liner is supposed to be mildew and mold free which is a plus. It's too soon to know how much work it will be fir me to keep the liner wiped clean or if it does get mildew or mold. But I'm generally satisfied with this PVC free liner so far, so I'm giving it 4 stars with the caveat I may need to adjust my rating after I see how much effort it takes to keep the liner clean and how long the liner will last.

I was looking for a comfortable cotton sleeping bag liner.  Cotton feels soft and cool, which is much more desirable in warm weather than either rayon or flannel, the typical lining for sleeping bags.  (I don't know why no one advertises the thread-count for these.)  I received this, and the cotton is reasonably comfortable.  It is the right size to fit inside my standard size sleeping bag.

However, this liner is equipped with a few velcro tabs to hold the sides closed.  I didn't think anything of it until the first time I used it.  What a bad idea!  The velcro is very scratchy and irritating.  Especially against your bare skin.  Especially in your arm pits and the sides of your ribs.

I'll be looking for another liner, and until I find one, I'm going to rip that velcro out.

As for performance, if it contributed to the overall insulating capability of the sleeping bag, I couldn't tell.  However, on the night it was too hot and humid to get into the bag, the liner alone was pleasant to sleep in.  Also, the cotton absorbs sweat and condensation, and then it can be hung out to dry, or run through the laundry at home.  Either way, this undoubtedly makes the sleeping bag more effective, stay cleaner, and last longer.

I took the advice of another reviewer and ripped out the plastic liner, then it was a nice hat that breathed well. Yes, now it's not waterproof, but I have a gore-tex brimmed blaze hat for that. This one breathes better so more comfortably in very warm weather, which seems to be the norm for 3rd season these last few years. :/

These mats fit the car very well as advertised and are very good quality - deep rubber ridges trap dirt and moisture; unfortunately, they do not have the raised edges around the perimeter of the mat that I expected. I purchase a set of WeatherTech floor liners for my pick-up truck and they have the ~2 - 3 inch raised edge around the perimeter of the matt that keeps all moister and dirt on the matt and off the carpet. I expected these matts to have a similar "lip" around the perimeter, but they do not. Other than that one unmet expectation, I have no complaints about the WeatherTech product and would recommend them to anyone.

The liner fits but doesn't fit as tightly as I would like. There is about a half inch gap along the sides which will allow for dirt & water to get behind the liner.  Overall I am very happy with the liner.

When I originally ordered this product, the diapers had velcro closures and no padding in the "wee wee" area. They were amazing, fit well, and cleaned nicely (no lingering urine smell after washing). I loved them so much, I ordered another set (as a backup, because we were going through 2 a day), and the second set was NOT great. The velcro had been replaced by snap buttons, which means the fit is not as perfect as before. In addition, padding had been added into the "wee wee" area, which means that they retain the smell of urine even after washing in hot water. I still use them because they were not cheap, but I definitely use the second set as a last resort back up, and will not be purchasing replacements.

I originally bought the Hookless Snap-in Fabric Liner and Shower Curtain all together. It was easy to hang and looked great. Although we try to shake the excess water off the liner after each shower, the liner still got dirty after a few months. We tried washing it in the washing machine, and soaking it in bleach water. It extended the life for awhile, but then it came time to replace the liner. I love that the liner is sold separately, so you don't have to buy the entire curtain again. It is so easy to put on an take off. I plan to keep the shower curtain, and just buy replacement liners when needed. The liner comes in 2 sizes, so make sure you get the correct size.

I had to send back the original due to the bottom separating from the protective cloth side.  It lasted through the trip, but sent back to get a replacement.  New one was sent and received and sent back old one.  Thanks!!

The pet dishes in this package are great and exactly as described. But I would hardly call the liner they include a liner, it is more like a thin strip of paper thin cardboard material. I doubt this will absorb much but it is better than nothing. Other types of pet absorbent pads offer much better protection.

So far, I have been very pleased with this liner.  I like the thickness of the liner, and that it stays in place even without the magnets at the bottom.  The lack of magnets also makes it easier to clean, since there aren't any stitches or bumps for mildew or germs to cling to.  Most of the reason I have had to replace liners is due to nasty build-up along the bottom, and I just don't see that as an issue with this liner.  In addition, the seller sent a personal email to make sure that I was happy with the product, or if I had any concerns, and offered continuing support in the future.
Personally, I don't mind paying a little more for a quality product that will last longer, and in fact save us money in the long run, as I won't have to keep buying the cheaper liners.  I hope to have this liner for a long time!

First, I am giving this item 4 stars only because there is a smell associated with the insect repellent. However to combat this I left the liner hanging out for a week in my office and then when packing it for my trip I sprinkled lavender oil all over the liner before stuffing it. This helped somewhat as my husbands bag (who didn't do anything for the smell) was noticeably smellier than mine.

The liner itself is amazingly soft at the end of the day. We were in rather hot weather (80-90 degrees at night) and in the northern highlands of Nicaragua, with some chilled weather (~60 degrees at night) and the liner was comfortable in both conditions. Even though it was uncomfortably hot at night, we were in some sketchy hostels that I preferred not to make skin contact with the mattress or sheets :-) and like the liner promises with the CoolMax technology it was great for both conditions.

As far as using it as a liner in my sleeping bag I cannot speak to that since I only used it as a liner.

I do not have have sensitive skin and did not have any reactions to the material nor to the insect repellant within the material. Though the thought of skin to insect repellant creeped me out because of the cautionary tale I just wore light pj's for the duration of usage.  :-)

The liner is very solid and doesn't cling to you. I wiped down the liner every couple of weeks to keep it clean. Unfortunately after about 7 months the liner has mildewed and needs to be replaced.

This is a wonderful item, but I wish the the inside was lined with fabric. I lined it myself, but it isn't aesthetically pleasing.

A banneton proofing basket is great for making really gorgeous breads; I've been highly satisfied with the boules I get out of this. It can be a bit pesky to clean - you don't want to use any water on it - but it's worth the labor of love to care for, I think, and is rarely much of a hassle.
