POPULO 20V Cordless Electric Drain Auger-Efficient 25Ft Auto-Feed Drain Snake with Replaceable Cable,2.0Ah Battery,Charger,Storage Bag & Gloves for Kitchen,Bathroom,Shower Pipes (3/4"-2")"

Well, I was hoping for, but not expecting, an easy solution to our drain issues and BOY WAS I WRONG. The Populo arrived this morning, I charged the battery, read the instructions (a good thing because of a few need-to-know intricate operating details), ran the cable forward, at center and retracted just to make sure I understood its operation, and went to work on our two tubs which have proved Drano proof. I pressed the power button more gingerly than many would, just to be sure I wasn't forcing anything and both drains were cleared and running freely in less than 20 mins. Easy, easy, easy to use and I couldn't be more satisfied with this purchase.

I had a supposedly professional drain auger that lasted three years. My husband had use this auger and he tells me that it is so easy to use that anybody can unclogged any pipes in your house. Thank you for the great product.

Definitely a quality piece of equipment. I used it to clear my kitchen sink, but was unsuccessful. With more experience and effort, I may have been successful, but I ended up paying a plumber $500 to clear a 22' line. One drawback of this unit is that it does not display the insertion length of the line. I couldn't tell if the blockage was past its 25' limit because I couldn't tell how far it had gone. I was also concerned that there was some other plumbing issue. Those are more issues of my amateur status. Plumber came in with a big power snake and cleared it all in 10 minutes. The takeaway being that it may be better to rent a bigger unit and unless you use it a couple of time a year, it may not be an economical purchase. In no case would I attempt to clear to the street (obviously not with this unit); that's professional work.

I recently faced 2 stubborn slow drain line issues in both my kitchen sink and washing machine drain lines that connect to the main line outside my house. Enter the POPULO 20V Cordless Electric Drain Auger, and it worked like magic! Here’s why I’m impressed: This little wonder cleared up the clogs faster than I could say “plumber.” No more standing water, no more frustration. And it paid for itself by eliminating the cost of having a plumber come out and snake the lines! The POPULO 20V Cordless Electric Drain Auger feels sturdy and well-made. It’s evident that it’s designed to handle tough jobs. The forward and reverse lever feels a little "stiff" but it's not a knock on this little machine at all. The design is similar to other plumbing snakes that you would attach a drill to. However, the ability to advance and retreat the snake makes using this snake over a traditional snake a game changer. You can select the direction the snake rotates, similarly to the way you change the forward and reverse on a cordless drill, by pressing a direction indicator near the trigger. Here's how I was able to clear both drain lines: 1. Pull the snake from the machine and place it into the drain 2. Switch the direction lever to the Forward position 3. Pull the trigger to begin advancing the snake down the drain line. When the snake hits a bit of resistance and the cable stops advancing down the drain, release the trigger and put the lever in "neutral." Now pull the trigger to engage the spin, and manually push and pull the snake inside the drain by moving the machine forwards and backwards in a "sawing" like motion. When you no longer feel the resistance, release the trigger, switch the lever to forward, repeat the process. 4. When satisfied, switch the lever to reverse and begin retracting the cable back into the machine drum. [Pro tip] PPE is a must! As are rags and/or towels to help with clean up. You don't want the build-up and crud from your pipes getting thrown everywhere as the snake is being retracted. I used a rag to hold the cable in my left hand while I was retracting the cable out of the drain (it helped prevent the rotation from flinging nastiness everywhere and kept some of the gunk from being retracted into the machine's drum.) I wish the manufacturer had painted an indicator at the 2-foot mark and the 24-foot mark. I'll be doing this myself another day. The 24-foot mark would let you know there's not much snake left to send, and the 2-foot mark would help when retracting the snake back inside. This isn't a negative knock on the machine, though! Excellent purchase for the DIY-er!

I love it - it came ready to do.. Simple to use, powerful. Non nonsense.. rugged.. I cleared a very stubborn toilet clog in less than five minutes after everything else ( except a $250 plumber call) failed. It is also easy to clean

I had a Rigid brand before this one and I threw it away. This one did what I want with power! Very easy to use my only complaint is that the charger's Transformer gets hotter than I would like but if it doesn't burn the house down it's okay with me.

As a homeowner, I often encounter plumbing issues that require immediate attention. When I stumbled upon the POPULO Electric Drain Auger, with its promising features and positive reviews, I thought I had found the perfect tool to tackle clogged drains. However, my experience with this product has left me feeling utterly disappointed. In this comprehensive review, I will share my personal encounter with the POPULO Electric Drain Auger, covering all key points and explaining why it deserves only a 1 out of 5-star rating. Unreliable Performance: The most crucial aspect of any drain auger is its ability to efficiently clear clogs. Unfortunately, the POPULO Electric Drain Auger fails to deliver in this department. Upon receiving the product, I eagerly put it to the test in various situations: a clogged toilet, a blocked bathroom sink, and a backed-up shower drain. In each instance, the drain auger struggled to make any significant progress. The motor seemed underpowered, and the rotating snake failed to effectively break down or extract the clogs. This lack of reliable performance rendered the product almost useless in resolving my plumbing issues. Inadequate Reach: Another critical feature of a drain auger is its reach, as it determines the tool's ability to navigate through the pipes and reach the clog. Unfortunately, the POPULO Electric Drain Auger falls short in this aspect as well. With a meager 25ft of cable, it could only reach clogs located near the surface. Deeper or more complex clogs were beyond the tool's capabilities. This limitation greatly diminished its usefulness, as many plumbing systems require longer cables to access clogs effectively. Poor Battery Life: The POPULO Electric Drain Auger is marketed as a cordless tool, offering convenience and ease of use. However, the battery life is a significant letdown. Despite charging the device fully before each use, the drain auger's battery consistently died after only a few minutes of operation. This forced me to repeatedly pause my work, recharge the device, and resume the task—a frustrating and time-consuming process. A drain auger should provide a sufficient battery life to handle the average duration of a plumbing task, but the POPULO Electric Drain Auger falls short in this regard. Lack of Durability: Durability is crucial when it comes to tools, especially those designed for challenging tasks like unclogging drains. Unfortunately, the POPULO Electric Drain Auger did not live up to expectations in this area either. During my limited usage, I noticed several signs of wear and tear. The cable started to fray after just a few uses, and the rotating mechanism became increasingly noisy and unstable. These issues raised concerns about the product's longevity and reliability over time. Investing in a drain auger should guarantee a durable tool capable of handling repeated usage, but the POPULO Electric Drain Auger fails to meet this expectation. Limited Versatility: One would hope that a drain auger marketed as suitable for 3/4"-2" pipes would be versatile enough to handle a wide range of plumbing fixtures. Regrettably, this was not the case with the POPULO Electric Drain Auger. While it managed to navigate the standard-sized pipes relatively well, it struggled with larger or irregularly shaped pipes. This limitation severely restricted its usefulness, as many plumbing systems incorporate different pipe sizes and configurations. A truly versatile drain auger should be adaptable to various scenarios, but the POPULO Electric Drain Auger falls short in this regard. Conclusion: In conclusion, my experience with the POPULO Electric Drain Auger has been nothing short of disappointing. From its unreliable performance and inadequate reach to its poor battery life and lack of durability, this product fails to meet even the most basic expectations. The limited versatility further diminishes its usefulness in real-life plumbing situations. For anyone seeking a reliable and effective drain auger, I cannot recommend the POPULO Electric Drain Auger. It simply does not deliver on its promises and falls far short of providing a satisfactory solution to common plumbing issues.

Terrible battery. The auger does a good job and I really want to give it a good review. However the battery is just terrible. After 5 charges, it now only changes to about 30% maybe less. So it doesn't last long enough to unwind and wind more even once. Very disappointed. What good is the equipment if it cannot be used! Worse yet, I've tried to find a better quality replacement and maybe one with more capacity, but no luck with either. Apparently this is a custom battery with no compatible alternative. If you know of one, please let me know. So, now I have to order another one and when you go to order, on that page, Amazon warns that people frequently return, etc.

Ich hatte wiederholt mit einer Verstopfung zu kämpfen. Einmal den Rohrreiniger geholt, der für 20 Minuten mal 300 €in Rechnung gestellt hat.. Verstopfung kam einen Moant später wieder, also wollte ich es selbt probieren. Zuerst mit einer billig Handspirale, welche absoluter Müll war, dann jetzt dieses Gerät und bin super positiv überrascht: Wenn du auch öfter mal mit verstopften Rohren zu tun hast – gerade im Keller oder bei älteren Leitungen – dann könnte dieser Akku-Rohrreiniger echt was für dich sein. Der macht ordentlich was her und wirkt ziemlich robust verarbeitet. Die Spirale ist lang genug für die meisten Standardrohre, und durch den Akku hast du volle Bewegungsfreiheit ohne nervige Kabel im Weg. Das macht die ganze Sache deutlich angenehmer und einfacher zu handhaben. Die Reinigung läuft erstaunlich effektiv: Die Spirale frisst sich regelrecht durch die Verstopfung und erledigt den Job schnell. Dabei bleibt das Gerät leise und liegt gut in der Hand – ergonomisches Design und starker Motor machen sich hier echt bezahlt. Bei besonders hartnäckigen oder verwinkelten Rohren wäre eine alternative Spitze eventuell hilfreich. Aber vermutlich ist das Gerät auch bewusst auf Rohre bis 65 mm Durchmesser ausgelegt, damit es noch flexibel genug bleibt, um um Ecken zu kommen. Trotzdem: Für den normalen Einsatzbereich funktioniert das Teil richtig gut und spart dir Zeit, Nerven und Schmutzarbeit. Und durch die mitgelieferte Aufbewahrung bleibt auch alles schön ordentlich. ✅ Kabelloser Betrieb mit leistungsstarkem Akku ✅ Sehr gute Reinigungsleistung auch bei festen Verstopfungen ✅ Ergonomische Handhabung und leiser Betrieb ✅ Hochwertige Verarbeitung, langlebige Materialien ✅ Inklusive praktischer Aufbewahrung für Spirale und Zubehör 🟡 Einsatzbereich auf Rohre bis ca. 65 mm Durchmesser begrenzt Fazit: Ein zuverlässiger Helfer bei Rohrverstopfungen, der Komfort, Leistung und Qualität gut vereint. Für den Hausgebrauch und typische Einsatzbereiche ist dieser Rohrreiniger absolut empfehlenswert. Bin super happy, da ist das Geld besser investiert als in einen professionellen Rohrreiniger.

Meteen na levering de gootsteen ontstopt in 1 keer. Batterij is genoeg opgeladen om meteen aan de slag te gaan. Machine voelt robuust aan en werkt uitstekend.

Bought this as I’m an engineer and need something easier instead of meddling around with cables. Easy to use, lightweight and just makes my life easier. A little on the expensive side but to be honest compared to other sellers it’s a bargain.

I purchased the POPULO 20V Cordless Electric Drain Auger to deal with a stubborn recurring clog in my kitchen sink, and it completely exceeded my expectations. The 25-foot auto-feed cable made clearing the pipe an absolute breeze—no manual cranking or messy tangling, and it saved me a costly call to a professional plumber. Having the cordless design powered by the 20V battery meant I could maneuver freely without worrying about extension cords. What truly compelled me to write this review, however, was the outstanding customer service from POPULO. I had a quick question regarding the cable replacement process, and their support team went above and beyond. They responded within hours, provided crystal-clear guidance, and were genuinely courteous and professional. It is rare to find both a high-quality, reliable tool and a company that genuinely stands behind its products with top-tier customer care. Highly recommended to any DIYer dealing with stubborn household clogs!

Lo compré para arreglar un atasco en el fregadero de mis padres, porque Vinieron dos fontaneros (del seguro, que no les apetecería trabajar) a casa de mis padres y no terminaron de solventar el problema. Me fijé en que tipo de aparatos usaban e indagando por internet encontré esto. Ha funcionado y lo mejor es que vale para futuros atascos y te ahorras tramitar historias con seguros o lo que cuesta el servicio de un desatascador o fontanero.
