Excellent, great invention
My son threw a toy car down the toilet and blocked it. We got the toilet jetted by a professional company and when that didnt work they told us the toilet would need to come off. They could only use a certain amount of pressure without damaging the toilet. Bought this as a last ditch attempt and it had the toy car out within a few minutes! Brilliant

Sink unblocking snake thing
The head was too big to fit through the plug hole that I needed it for, so I cut it off. Once I had the device through the bath plug hole it did bring up some hair and then too much force separated the pipe connections. I had to remove the bath paneling, strip down the remaining pipe work, clear the blockage by hand and re-seal the plug hole. So, in short, I should have saved my money and done it all by hand. I enjoyed the adventure though.

scratches the toilet basin, poor product design.
Found this useless in helping to clear any form of blockage at all. Cannot fit down a regular sink drain, and even trying to clear a toilet blockage leaves more damage to the toilet basin itself. Very flimsy and awkward to use. Now just sitting in my garden shed gathering dust.

Didn't do the job
I could not get this through the shower drain pipe. Kind of worked for the sink, but I think it will not have a lot of use in the future.

Will suit some situations but not all
This MIBOW Unblocker will suit some situations where the plug entry/waste pipe is of sufficient diameter to accommodate the flexible shaft which has a number of ridges on it that are intentionally wider than the shaft itself to remove debris. Also, the point where the flexible shaft joins the handle looks a bit weak, however, overall it did the job for us in clearing an outside garden drain.

Toy successfully fished out!!
As described, did the job with a little help, kids toy flushed which this could find but not dislodge, attached a fishing hook to this product and out came the toy without need for plumber and subsequent fees! Very happy, more satisfying and successful than if I had tried to use the hook to catch a fish!!.

The quality is good but of no good to me
This device did not fit down my plug hole due to the circumference of the widest part wire.Therefore, it could not be used.The quality is good but of no good to me.

Don’t waste your money
Bought this hoping it would unblock my toilet, and it failed miserably. Literally watched about 20 different YouTube videos on how to use it correctly in case i was doing something wrong, but it still got nothing out. Absolute waste of money, and if I was allowed to rate it zero stars I would.

Works fine, but requires a bit of patience and elbow grease.
This worked well for me, but I could see how some people might find it difficult to use, so I took a star off for that. Here's the technique I used: push the cable in as far as you can force it down the drain, then use the handle to turn it (CW or CCW doesn't seem to matter) and the cable will shorten as the spiral wire at the end works its way into the clog. Do this for a while, at least until the cable shortens noticeably. Then let it unwind itself in the opposite direction and pul it out. There should be a satisfying yucky glob of hairy goo on the end. I did this twice and my sink drain is running freely now and was previously completely blocked.I was worried that ti wouldn't fit because my sink drain has a horizontal bar about 1/2 inch down, but it was fine.

Amazing. Don’t hesitate to try this!
Shower drain has been running slow since we moved in 4 years ago. I cleaned it a few times with the little plastic zip things which got a lot of stuff out...drain would work a bit better for a few days but then bad again. I was finally about to call Roto Rooter and thought, before I spent $200, why not give this thing a try. AMAZING. It went in so easily that I was sure it wasn’t working but lo and behold, when I pulled it back out, it was truly disgusting how much crud this thing pulled out. I included a photo of what came out on the first pull. Drain is, well, actually DRAINING now. Imagine that! And this took less than 5 mins of my time! Best investment ever!

Did in seconds what an entire bottle of Liquid Plumber failed to do
I dropped a sliver of soap down my shower drain and nothing would dislodge it. Two applications of Liquid Plumber, using up an entire bottle, did nothing. I ordered this gadget in a last-ditch effort to clear that stubborn clog before calling my plumber and paying $$$ to avoid having to stand in ankle-deep water during a 10-minute shower.It was difficult at first to get the snake far enough down the drain. Turns out it was because it hit the clog and couldn't go any further. A couple of twists and bam! I pulled out a soapy blob of hair about an inch in diameter. The water now runs right straight down the drain like it's supposed to.Kind of feel bad for my plumber, Christmas just around the corner and all.

Brilliant Kitchen Solution
I have tried multiple drain cleaner liquids, gels and granules (those designed specifically for tough kitchen clogs) to try and unplug my kitchen sink all to no avail. Short of getting my hands on a pipe wrench and tearing the thing apart, I decided to try this first. What many applications of chemicals could not fix, I was able to clear away with this in less than 15 minutes. Couldn't be happier.It was a tight fit to thread into my drain holes. It's easier to thread in than thread out. The trick I found was to pull the spring so it kind of wedged into a drain hole at an angle and then wound the handle. You can feel the tension building up and the spring will shortly pop out. Repeat for all the springs Takes a bit of practice to get a feel for, but as I said I was able to get it done on the first try in less than 15 minutes.Only thing to note is the handle is not silicone. It feels like a cheap plastic. In fact, mine cracked a little either in shipping or during use; I didn't notice exactly when it occurred. It didn't affect the effectiveness of the apparatus, but the description is a little misleading in that regard.

Great snake
This snake was perfect for what i needed! It got my hair out around the drain and re-established flows easily. I didn’t even need to ask the boyfriend.One thing I would note is that you should make sure the measurement fits your drain. Mine was a tight squeeze but worked well!
