        The guy at the store said to get this a long with a chemical. I used it first and DON'T NEED THE CHEMICALS. It did the trip on my bathroom pedestal sick. SO much better than pouring chemicals into the water supply.

          I stuck this thing in the drain to get a [*] hairball and sure enough I got it. That little baѕtard was wedged in there pretty good too.

          Comments about Cobra® Zip-It (00401):

          The Zip-It is a great tool. I had a slow shower drain in my daughter's (toddler with a lot of hair) bathroom. I had tried all of the home do-it-yourself plumbing tricks such as excessive plunging and the good baking soda-vinegar rinse. I also removed the overflow plate and inserted a wire clothes hanger but was unsuccessful. I headed to the hardware store on Thanksgiving Eve in search of a drain snake. However, the associate suggested the Zip-It. I was skeptical so I purchased the Zip-It, an 8-ft drain snake tool and a new drain cover-strainer designed especially for hair. I said the Zip-It would be my first line of defense in attacking the slow drain. I returned home and used the Zip-It by inserting it in the overflow opening and to my surprise the balls of hair were removed instantly. The Zip-It is now safely stored in the garage and I will need to return an item( 8-ft drain snake) on Black Friday!!

              Handyman at my house showed Zip it to me.. I used it and in no more than 2 min, I had a vanity sink cleared.. I used to have to take the pipes a part and take out all the items I stored under the sink... I can't believe I've gone so long without knowing of Zip It.. Another invention I'm saying " Why didn't I think of that"...

                I work as a maintenance technician for an apartment complex and when I saw the tool i had my doubts, when i finally got to use it, i was out of the apartment in less than 5 minutes. No need to remove P-traps or pipes. I was impressed.

                  Love this tool. It is a MUST-HAVE for any home, especially if there are females in the home. This thing helps unclog the drain faster and more safely than any other product or device.

                    I've been using this product for a few months now. Everytime my wife complains that the bathroom drain is clogged, I snake this into the drain and after pulling out large clumps of hair and other gross looking stuff the drain is working great again. Love it!

                        Cheap, does the trick - what more could you want?
                        Packaging said one time use, but I washed it off and have been reusing it many times.

                        We had a lot of hair getting stuck in our shower drain, and after a few bottles of Drano, I decided I needed something better. Stuck this in a few times, it caught the hair and pulled it out.
                        Works like a charm!
