Customer Reviews for VEVOR Drain Cleaner Machine 100FT x 1/2 Inch Auto Feed with Wheels & 8 Cutters

First, the product description is incorrect. The manufacturers info stating this is a ½” cable is correct; the item description shows a ⅜” cable, which is incorrect.I bought this to clear a long exterior drain on my ranch. The machine works exactly as intended. The feed is smooth in both forward and retract positions. The unit is made in China and is built on a heavy duty tubular steel frame with solid rubber tires. The unit is very heavy, about 100 lbs., mostly due to the 100’ cable.I suspect the majority of pictures and horror stories others have shared on this review page are due to inexperience with this type of machine. This machine will not automatically clear your drain, but will assist you in clearing your drain if you know how to use it.

It is so easy to use and very portable. It was one of the best thing I have bought for myself since buying my home. It is durable and strong cuts right through roots in pipes.Angela R.

The unit I ordered had the closed faced bail (drum) and received the open drum. After first pass out, when retrieving cable and sending into line again, there is sewage water that is sprayed from the rotating drum/cable. Being open it proved to be quite a stinking mess.

I was pleased that the motor was powerful enough to turn a long run of stiff 1/2 inch cable through many bends. My complaints are the same as many other reviewers. Instructions are worthless to most Americans (can it be that expensive or difficult to improve?). I am an elderly American and therefore I am most accustomed to right hand threads, clockwise twists, and don’t readily think in metric terms and measurements. If you make machines with both right and left hand twists, I want to make that choice (not buy it and find out which I get). Thank you.

This machine works great. Price is good. Delivery was on time. Everything is great .

We used this machine once. It didn’t work well. The cable coil kept getting tangled within the machine stopping it from continuing into the pvc sewer pipe.

It’s excellent product

I've had the machine for over a year-I've only had to use it once and was elated-been about 8 months since a clog. There is a video on line-watch it- for me and I'm not young I thought it was easy to get around and use-there are techniques that come on the more you use it-I use it two more times and it paid for itself! Highly recommended!

Works like a professional level. Don’t plan on feeding pass the halfway length. Get the longest length cable, because after half of the cable is discharged, the cable gets loose and jams. And don’t use the reverse motor direction unless you want to unscrew the spiral cable tip off of the base of the cutter. Use your hand to guide the drum in reverse, just enough to get the kinks back out.

It is sturdy and well built it helps a lot if you own a restaurant or deli the best out there
