Pros

These drain snakes are fairly simple to use and do a great job of clearing out drains. These are the simplest in design and they work beautifully. Sometimes the simplest solution really is the best.

Nothing beats disassembling the drain but this drain snake does a good job and is quick. Handy little gadget to have around. If you manually push the snake until it does not easily slide down the drain anymore, things work well.

It’s * but satisfying to see all the hair dredged up on those plastic spikes. Even though i wasn’t happy with the pull tab on this drain snake it still is a good inexpensive device that can help clear up a slow drain or a clog without calling a plumbe...  Read More

I'm a first-time homeowner and i have long hair that clogs my bathroom sink and tub. Especially if you have daughters or a lot of hair because when you wash your hair it sometimes sheds and that with gunk can build up in the drainage. It's disgusting,...  Read More

Quality


The unit is sturdy and held up well during use.

The wire is stiff and doesn't get fouled up when you use it.


No matter how much care one take in preventing plumbing drain clogs over time grime and hair build up will require drains to be cleaned.

Price


Saved me a lot of money actually.

A plumber would have likely charged $400+ and asked to remove the sink as it was very tricky to get into the pipe.

Packaging/appearance


It was nicely packaged & everything pictured came w it.


The auger comes well packaged, has a hand crank and a shaft for your drill (i just put the instructions, gloves and shaft in a ...  Read More


There is no storage bags or box but i think you can just get a plastic bin and store it that way.

Competitiveness

    You will need to grip the handle tightly for the snake to feed or retract


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I particularly like the bit for the drill it’s not smooth so the drill can grip it better and that was the main selling point for me


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It arrived with rubber coated gloves and 2 small plastic augers that can be used to clog a drain quickly they’re made to thread them through the drain probably
