Product Description
Flo provides a simple solution to bath-time challenges. This unique product diverts the flow of water, creating a gentle waterfall, while providing a protective faucet cover to guard against injury. Flo also functions as a bubble bath dispenser.Simply attach this handy device to the bath tub faucet with the included spring-activated grip -- requires no assembly or special installation. When the water is turned on, it's diverted into a stream that extends up to 12" in front of the faucet, creating a gentle waterfall that makes rinsing your hair easy. The soft material on the front edge of Flo helps protect against injuries caused by bumping or scraping against the faucet. Parents can fill the bubble bath reservoir and let children dispense bubbles into the water by pressing the button on the front. Measures 7 1/4" x 4" x 3".
Amazon.com Hands-On Review
For most kids, taking a bath is all fun and games…until it's time for shampooing. Granted, leaning back into the unknown, getting suds in the eyes, allowing Mom or Dad to pour cups full of water over your head, or banging your noggin on the faucet—none of this would be on a grownup's list of favorite things to do, either. So kids and parents will both be tremendously relieved to discover Flo, a water deflector and faucet cover that turns a regular bathtub faucet into a gentle, safe waterfall. Children won't mind leaning back into the soft spray of water, especially since the rubbery material of the deflector will make any inadvertent bumps pain-free. However, the chance of bumps is much less because Flo redirects the downward stream of water out and away from the faucet. The entire shampooing process will take place many inches away from the source of most injuries. No need for bathers to contort their bodies anymore to get directly under the flow. Best of all (for image-conscious parents), Flo is handsomely designed, sleek and stylish—no yellow duckies here! When it's time for a grownup shower, the shower diverter remains accessible through the upper portion of the faucet cover, so you won't need to remove it after every bath. Let It Flo
Installation of the Flo couldn't be easier. Just squeeze the top and bottom sections together and fit over bathtub faucet. Make sure the front of the faucet extends over the inside flap, and that the shower diverter is accessible through the top opening. Bubbles, With Little Toil or Trouble
A one-touch bubble bath dispenser releases liquid bubble soap into the flow of water, ensuring a tub full of fluffy, foamy fun. Pour liquid bubble bath into the reservoir at the top end of the Flo, then press the green button on the lower end where the water comes out. Pros
Kids of all ages will love playing in the soothing spray from the deflector, and will be far less likely to resist a shampoo rinse when it's under a "waterfall." Flo's simple design is attractive to grownups and children alike. Cons
Although the cover is designed to fit easily over any standard bathtub faucets, there are definitely some faucets that it will fit better—or worse—than others. The Flo is easy to attach…but it can be fairly easy to remove, too, which is not always ideal when it's a curious one-year-old doing the detaching. The bubble dispenser does not always work optimally, but presumably that's not what most parents will be looking for in a protective cover/water deflector, anyway. And with some engineering (a.k.a. wiggling the cover around), the bubble dispenser issues can often be resolved. --Emilie Coulter

 Would not buy again December 23, 2008
I bought this because my granddaughter fell and scraped her face on the faucet in the bath tub and by appearance it looked like it would cover the majority of the faucett and keep her from getting hurt again. The problem is that we have excellant water pressure and when the water is on it shoots off the faucett - when the water is off it slides down to the end and barely hangs on. It has fit the purpose but I would like it better if it stayed in place.

 what December 20, 2008
I really absolutely have no clue what this thing does or is meant to do.
I mean, it spreads out water well and hangs pretty solidly on my faucet.
but, it's not a bad piece of equipment, solidly built.
Doesn't look too bad either.
anyway, if this is what you're looking for, I recommend it. Boon is a good brand.
Work GREAT! December 8, 2008
I love this product. It works great on our Kohler faucet. Really helps when washing hair and such.
 Works for some people . . . But not me. November 28, 2008
This product is a great idea, but they need to be more clear in the selling info that it only fits on certain faucets. The hole at the top that fits over the shower knob thing only fits over knobs that are at the front of the faucet. Unlike mine, which is further back. I can get the boon flo cover over the faucet, but it really doesn't clamp down and it falls off if you bump it. Hopefully I'll be able to move into a house, someday, that has the right kind of faucet.
 Does not work November 2, 2008
This product is pretty disappointing. It does not clamp tightly to the faucet spout and slips off to the end causing water to flow out the back. My spout is a typical design so the cover should be able fit properly. Many people mentioned the need for a shower pop-up knob, which we do have. When someone takes a shower, the cover slips forward holding the knob up. The knob would normally pop back down when the shower is turned off. Instead I get an icy cold shower when I turn my daughter's bath water on! The other problem is that the resevoir to hold bubble bath leaks badly and when I filled it in the evening at bath time it had completely drained by morning. This happened the very first time we used it, not after soap gunk had built up in the dispenser. The only feature I did like was that it was effective at diffusing the water flow which made it quieter and less scary to my baby.
