Like many others 1. I don't normally write reviews and 2. I was sceptical about this small little plastic toy. I was wrong, a few days ago my bathtub decided to stop draining, I did the usual, empty out the water pull grossness out of the drain, vinegar, baking soda, hot water from waist height and nothing would budge. I ordered a drain snake but it wasn't going to arrive for a few days so I thought I would try this, came in one day and I'll be damned, a few minutes with this bad boy and wouldn't you know it, my tub is draining beautifully. If your in a tough spot spend $20 and save yourself the hassle of dealing with your landlord and a plumber and fix it on your own.
