Drano Max Gel Drain Clog Remover and Cleaner for Shower or Sink Drains, Unclogs and Removes Hair, Soap Scum and Blockages, 80 Oz, Pack of 2

EDIT: I just got more of this and the carrier was not careful with the box and when I picked it up it was moist and had a strong, almost like scented bleach smell. STILL washing my hands as while it's not burning, it's tingling. When I actually use the gel I wear gloves, but you don't expect the box you receive it in to be damp on the bottom!_______________________________________________My experience and my skill set!First, I'm a woman in her 70's who has had to figure out stuff on her own (basically online)I had a slow running shower. It would drain, but even a quick ten minute shower would fill the tub about up to my ankles and when you think of that water is from whatever is backing up your drain...ew.IT would drain within about 15 mins after shower, but hated standing in any water.Like others have said, I would IGNORE the directions and leave in longer. When I take a shower tonight, I will see if the water is moving as fast as I want it to. I notice in the bullet points, it says you can leave product in overnight.I got two of the LARGE 80 oz bottles.I put HALF of one in and let sit 30 mins, didn't add water, I then just poured the other half in.I let that sit about an hour and half, so total two hours and used a whole bottle.I thought about leaving in longer, some said they left in overnight, so like 8 hours, some said they left in 24 hours. Well, I live in a one bedroom condo with one bathroom, one shower/tub, so....I shut the door as I have two curious cats while it did it's thing.I started pouring really hot tap water at first, wasn't really moving that fast, but I did that a bunch of times, then I heated water in a small pot (I have cats underfoot and in my 70's and have to walk from kitchen to bathroom with uber hot water, so I didn't want to take biggest pot to try to do this).I noticed after a few times with really hot water (when bubbles start to form at bottom of pot, doesn't have to be rolling boil), the water was going down quicker.Makes sense. I figure the gel LOOSENS it, but the more and the HOTTER the water, the quicker through the pipes.Now, if I had LEFT it sitting for 8 or 24 hours before putting water down, would it have helped more? MAYBE. But I think the close to boiling water being poured in helped move it along.The gel is obviously strong. I actually have some safety goggles someone gave me and i used plain disposable gloves just to be cautious. AND I would keep your kids and pets AWAY til all is resolved and you've cleaned out any residue from tub/shower.TIP! While I am sure this LOOSENED clog, built up shampoo or soap, the BOILING WATER is what always seems to really make it work. SUGGESTION Once you do clear your drain, every day or so just take a pot of boiling water and pour down drain! THIS will help keep clear longer and build up down especially if it's just from product buildup. Can't say if there is a lot of hair clogging drain (I have very short fine hair, so it's product build up from shampoo and soap) the hot water alone would help. But putting boiling water down drain at least every few days or even week, well think about it, boiling water dissolves._________________________Bottomline: after doing several of the small pots of super hot water and then running the tub with the stopper open for awhile, the water is moving pretty darn fast.But my takeaway after reading a ton of reviews, leave it in longer than it says. I didn't even have STANDING water, tub/shower was empty of water when I poured in and it still took me MANY pots of water (I could tell it was starting to go down as it kind of burbled/bubbled) to get the job done.

De primero le puse la casi la mitad del bote , esperé una hora y no funcionó , en la noche antes de acostarme le puse todo lo que tenía el vote , más de la mitad . Y en la mañana le puse agua caliente del grifo , recuerden que es caliente el agua . Y se destapó . A mí me funcionó perfecto..

Used the entire bottle on a clogged sink and it did not work.Followed the instructions by using half the bottle at first, waited the recommended duration, then poured down hot water. Repeated and after 20 mn or so it worked.

Es excelente producto si tienes tu baño fregadero tapado solo debes echar el producto después de no haber usado tu bañera ni tu fregadero por lo menos media hora antes lo echas en la noche no puedes usarlo hasta el día siguiente y verás que hace magia maravilloso producto

This worked great to unclog a fairly deep drain clog that a sink plunger and running a wire hanger down the drain couldn’t handle. It did take about 4-5 attempts, so follow the directions, repeat if needed, and don’t give up. Saved us at least $100 over having a plumber snake the drain.

I’ve been having some problems with my kitchen drains. The waters been going down really slowly and I had a suspicious there was a potential clog. I didn’t want to spend so much on a professional to get it done which is why I got this clog remover instead. This comes in a pack of 2 so I was hoping for results that would be successful. Overall, using it isn’t even hard. The handle makes control really easy as I can get a steady grip on it when using. You really just pour it in and it should do the job. I followed all the steps but after a while I didn’t see much progress at all. It may have removed a bit of clog, but majority of it still remained in the drain. I used a lot of one bottle with yet to see results. These bottles have not been successful for my drains. I’ve used them repeatedly with little progress to be seen. They may come with many claims and large size seems like a great deal, but the product just wasn’t helpful for my drain’s issue.

I used the product twice in my bathtub, where water was slowing draining, with the first use, there weren't any results but after second use, the drain clogged was cleared.
