POPULO 20V Cordless Electric Drain Auger-Efficient 25Ft Auto-Feed Drain Snake with Replaceable Cable,2.0Ah Battery,Charger,Storage Bag & Gloves for Kitchen,Bathroom,Shower Pipes (3/4"-2")"

Got this because i had a basement drain clogged up real bad ... had a cheap 15.00 HF snake drill type snake on hand that broke within min and was useless (although it did pull some hair ..but diddnt fix the prob) used this and the clog was gone within miniutes . Unfortunately it diddnt pull the clog out it appears it either just broke it up or pushed it out ... either way it fixed the issue so thats all that matters and it did pull some hair on the way out .... the build quality is great everything feels really nice and strong its alot smaller and lighter then i imagined and therfore super super easy to use evey one handed the forward and reverse function is super easy to use and being able to go forward backward clockwise or counter clock wise adds alot of usefullness ... deff a great great product and id highly reccomend ... saved me hundreds i imagin for not having to call a plumber

This drain snake is excellent and at a great price. The plastic of the housing is as tough as my Milwaukee tools. It uses a bunch of sealed bearings to drive the snake forward and back.Follow the instructions carefully and you won't have problems. Only use the reverse mode shortly for undoing external binding.

Works as advertised....easy to set up and use. A lot easier than having to use a separate power drill and trigger grip to feed and reverse the snake. It comes with a bag large enough to store it: great advantage. I used the battery for over 30 minutes in two sessions and still showed 3 green LEDs. Batter is quick to charge with the included charger, which is small and compact. I gave it 4 stars because it did not clean out my line....but I'm not sure why. So, the plumber is coming on Monday and we'll see what his bigger snake finds. When the line gets stuck, follow the instructions to relieve tension and pull on it to free it up. And...I use a towel to dry the snake as it retracts to avoid corrosion.

I recently faced 2 stubborn slow drain line issues in both my kitchen sink and washing machine drain lines that connect to the main line outside my house. Enter the POPULO 20V Cordless Electric Drain Auger, and it worked like magic! Here’s why I’m impressed:This little wonder cleared up the clogs faster than I could say “plumber.” No more standing water, no more frustration. And it paid for itself by eliminating the cost of having a plumber come out and snake the lines!The POPULO 20V Cordless Electric Drain Auger feels sturdy and well-made. It’s evident that it’s designed to handle tough jobs. The forward and reverse lever feels a little "stiff" but it's not a knock on this little machine at all. The design is similar to other plumbing snakes that you would attach a drill to. However, the ability to advance and retreat the snake makes using this snake over a traditional snake a game changer.You can select the direction the snake rotates, similarly to the way you change the forward and reverse on a cordless drill, by pressing a direction indicator near the trigger.Here's how I was able to clear both drain lines:1. Pull the snake from the machine and place it into the drain2. Switch the direction lever to the Forward position3. Pull the trigger to begin advancing the snake down the drain line. When the snake hits a bit of resistance and the cable stops advancing down the drain, release the trigger and put the lever in "neutral." Now pull the trigger to engage the spin, and manually push and pull the snake inside the drain by moving the machine forwards and backwards in a "sawing" like motion. When you no longer feel the resistance, release the trigger, switch the lever to forward, repeat the process.4. When satisfied, switch the lever to reverse and begin retracting the cable back into the machine drum.[Pro tip] PPE is a must! As are rags and/or towels to help with clean up. You don't want the build-up and crud from your pipes getting thrown everywhere as the snake is being retracted. I used a rag to hold the cable in my left hand while I was retracting the cable out of the drain (it helped prevent the rotation from flinging nastiness everywhere and kept some of the gunk from being retracted into the machine's drum.)I wish the manufacturer had painted an indicator at the 2-foot mark and the 24-foot mark. I'll be doing this myself another day. The 24-foot mark would let you know there's not much snake left to send, and the 2-foot mark would help when retracting the snake back inside. This isn't a negative knock on the machine, though!Excellent purchase for the DIY-er!

I've been through 3 different types of snakes. The manual handle, twisting and drill powered this tops them all. If you're considering this just get it. It's worth the money and will make your life easier than all those other cheaper methods. It will also save you an expensive plumber's bill. It worked perfectly and helped me get a bunch of baby wipes my son threw down the toilet. Highly recommend!!
