Amazon Basics Flexible Drain Clog Remover Snake Tool, Effective for Hair and Debris Cleaning, 19.6-Inch, 12 Pack

Pro: Long enough to get down sink and bathtub plumbing in a 30 year old apartment building. Depending upon how long and how much long hair has been plugging up drains this job will be quick and easy or long and nasty. I've been in my apartment for 15 years so the first time I did this it was really awful and obviously no one had ever done it prior to my moving in. I wore gloves, a mask, and paper towels to dispose of what came out of it. It wasn't this specific purchase however, it applies to the same style of product though because it's fairly standard to have a handle at one end and lots of sharp teeth all along the orange plastic stick thing. I've never had them break in spite of their sometimes catching on metal. I consider all of them pretty sturdy, and effective with drain clearance. Not for garbage disposers, but on the side that doesn't have a disposer it works fine. I don't wash my hair in the sinks, just the bathtub shower and also use a hair catcher screen to help. I had very long waist length blonde hair 15 years ago. Two years ago, I cut it to shoulder length and hardly any hair removal from this product escaped this time. I recommend these things be used at least once every year. If you or your family have very long hair, it might be needed once a week. Once you determine how often your household requires drain cleaning, it's a lot easier and faster!Con: This specific brand has much sharper needle spikes that made it difficult to get out of the package. Yes, you could use the stick more than once, but I don't! Yucky stuff and the more you pull out of it, the more it will splatter and smell horribly. It's worth the money to start with a clean one for me.Idea: I also use thicker real rubber gloves over thin disposable ones to use this brand due to the sharper needle spikes on it. That solved the problem of getting hurt when pulling one out of the package and using it on the cleaning process. Much safer and more effective than using Drano type chemical products in my opinion.

These things are a life saver, they successfully unclogged my shower drain very quickly and were very easy to use.

Bought for my bathroom sink. Works great!

I have a slow-to-respond landlord, and these drain clog removers were a lifesaver for my shower. They were incredibly easy to use, and with minimal effort, they cleared everything out and got my shower flowing again. I was really impressed with how effective they were at tackling the clog, and I didn't have to wait around for maintenance to fix the issue. Highly recommend for anyone dealing with slow drains or clogs!

Used this today to pull out a big, gelatinous mass of old hair-dye mixed with clumps of hair from my bathroom sink. Turns out that some hair dyes form a big mass in the sink drain and gradually hair gets attached to it. This product easily removed the clog within seconds. Very easy and inexpensive. The sharp, little barbs all along the side of the product grab everything! I am very impressed!

I love this. It clears the drain so easily. I got one for each of my kids, for each of their bathroom sinks. No more corrosive drain cleaners.

Great product, works great on removing drain hair!

These do what they are supposed to do but the teeth pop of easily so consider them a single use product. the way they package them is an issue as well because they all are curled up and that makes it hard to get into a pipe
