I know this is supposed to be disposable but I just wash it off and it’s good as new. Maybe it’s supposed to be disposable because what you will pull out of your drains is pretty disgusting and most people probably dont want to attempt to get it off of the Zip-It anyway. I stuck this down the drain in my apartment and got out a load of gunk/hair/disgustingness. Then I used it on the sink, which also produced some foul-smelling gunk. The big kicker was taking it to my mom’s house and using it on her slow draining shower. What I pulled out must have been at least 2 feet long! I really don’t think chemicals could have dealt with that mess. Chances are, without the Zip-It we would have had to have a plumber come out and use a snake, which is expensive. Thanks people who make the Zip-It! Awesome!

It’s as good as new. Now, if the clog is farther than 17 inches, then this will not work. I don’t think you can use this to unclog your bath tub. You can try though. I haven’t used it for that. By the way, the seller sent it to me rolled. It took some time for it to straighten out by itself. I have not thrown the wrapper either. I

We’ve been having issues with our bathroom sink since we moved back into our house. We previously rented the house for 2 years and it seems as if the renters didn’t take care of much of anything while we were gone. Lesson learned, don’t rent out a home that you put a lot of money and effort into. I decided to try this drain cleaning tool after liquid plumber and some other drain cleaners failed. Well I wouldn’t say the chemicals failed but they only worked for a short time before the drain started running slow again. Since we can’t remove the drain plug, I needed something that would fit easily between the partitions of the drain plug without damaging it. THIS THING WORKS!!! I attached an image showing what kind of gunk and hair came out of the drain. DISGUSTING! The
