25FT Drain Auger, 10-In-1 Double Mode Drain Snake Tool, Professinal plumbing snake Plumbing Snake with Safety Glasses and Gloves, Hair Removal Tool with Cleaning Brush [Upgraded 4.0]

We had a particularly stubborn clog in our shower drain and I was able to easily use this, blast through the clog and clear the line, opening our drain again. This was much cheaper than having a plumber come out, so it has already paid for itself.

TL;DR: Catastrophically flimsy construction. Will not last.I used the auger to attempt to clear out a 2" diameter cleanout. The device broke almost immediately and I had to basically chuck in the trash. Before throwing it, I opened it to take a look at what failed.In the pictures, you will see that the rotating drum is attached to the bit that the handle or screw driver goes on with 2 tiny spot welds. The entire load on this thing while its in operation is shear load where the surfaces are trying to rotate away from each other. Using tiny welds to hold something like that together is a terribly poor engineering decision.The fix is so darn simple, I'm not sure why they did not do it. All they need is a folded lip on the large disk that engages with a notch on the small disk. The welds will hold because the shear load goes through the notch/lip contact rather than the weld.I hope they fix this problem asap. Until they do, I cannot recommend purchasing this product.

everything included was a bit cheap and gimmicky, but the tool itself worked well enough.

Please do your research on this entire project/product before purchasing/using… I actually broke mines within 15 minutes of using. It twisted on itself, got stuck in the pipe… and then the wire snapped off as I pulled while twisting🙇🏼… now the wire was stuck in the drain… took about a good 3 hours of me (praying) pushing, pulling and untwisting the wire every which way before I finally (luckily) got it free😣. And thank goodness because it would have ended up costing hundreds had I not. Long behold, my drain was still clogged and I finally called a professional 🙏🏽…💁🏼‍♂️

It is a good value for the price, however, it take a lot of grip strength to make the cable move back into the housing. Otherwise it serves it purpose for cleaning

Terrible, poor quality, not able to retract properly

Worked slightly...but after a second time the drill connector piece broke when retracting

Item didn’t work, doesn’t extend or retract when you turn. You have to manually pull out and forced back in
