My old house has a 30-foot section of drain line that needs snaking out every six months to two years. Over the years I've hired plumbers to perform this simple task. It used to be pretty cheap, but now a service call costs as much as this basic auger. I was concerned about the negative reviews on the Vevor 50-foot Drain Auger, but I decided to give it a chance anyway. Delivery took three days.NOTES ON USE:1. Plumbers always asked me to run the hot water when they snake out a line. It seems to lubricate the auger bit as it cuts. The Vevor comes with several different bits that work O.K., but I also bought the General Pipe Cleaners 1-1/2 inch ClogChopper which is a big step up.2. The basic Vevor auger DOES NOT automatically feed or retract the line. You just muscle it into the drain. This was easier than I expected since it fed smoothly. More advanced units use a self-feed mechanism.3. DO NOT use the "reverse" more than momentarily to remove a kink if the bit gets jammed.4. This Vevor is a hefty 75 pounds but does not have wheels or a long handle. You need to wrestle this bad boy into position by hand. More advanced units have wheels and handles.5. The Vevor auger comes with a three prong GFCI plug since you are working around water, mud and drain gunk. You control it with the waterproof foot foot switch which leaves both hands free to control the auger line.6. The Vevor includes a lightweight set of work gloves, but I prefer my old set of heavy leather work gloves.I've never augered out a line before, but it was pretty easy. It took about 15-20 minutes including cleanup.In hindsight I wish I had purchased the more expensive Vevor 50-foot drain auger with wheels and automatic feed. This basic unit is a solid four star product.
