    I have a recurring clog in my kitchen drain that I have to snake once or twice a year, about 24 feet down the line from the garage end. I have been renting a large commercial auger for 40 bucks a day, and they are very heavy, labor intensive and they tend to sling greasy water around the area when you retract them from the line. I saw this one and decided it looked like a good design, so bought one.

    I’m pleased with the design of it, the fact that it is self-feeding and self-retracting, and also that it has the hose to enclose the cable to keep it from flopping around and flinging nasty stuff around the work area. However, it’s not perfect.

    If I were to redesign this tool, I would make it about 30% larger all over with a little bit more heft and power, use a bit more metal than plastic, and increase the cable capacity to 3/8″ X 40 or even 50 feet. A couple replaceable auger/cutter heads would also be nice. Then we’d have the ideal homeowner drain auger. Offer it for under [...] bucks and you couldn’t lose.

    If all you’re doing is snaking the occasional slow kitchen drain or hair clogs in the tub, this baby should be perfectly adequate. But if I were a landlord having to maintain several units, I would definitely get something bigger. The problem is, there’s just a huge gap in size between this and the next size up. I believer there is definitely a niche in between for a somewhat larger auger of this design. My congratulations to Ridgid or Home Depot for coming up with this design. Now just boost the size a little bit.

    The first one had a problem with the motor within a week of purchasing it. I exchanged it for a new one thinking this can happen to any product – it was a lemon. The second one stopped working the second time I used it due to failure of the air operated on-off pedal. Returned it for a refund – twice in less than four weeks is not a fluke. It’s a poor product. Do not buy it unless you don’t mind returning things.

    It seems every holiday when vegetable peelings and other garbage go down the disposal, the plumbing in my older home chokes on it all and I end up with a massive blockage in the drain. After two expensive plumber visits during the first year of home ownership, I bought the Ridgid Drain Cleaner. While it doesn’t always clear the drain on the first try, I have always ultimately been successful in getting rid of the blockage with this machine. It paid for itself on the first use, and six years later I am way ahead on cost and convenience. Try calling a plumber on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, or New Years Eve. If you can get someone to come out, it will be many hours and many dollars later before you can serve your meal and clean up. I totally recommend this machine.

    Auger cable kinked up and wouldn’t return to drum. Had to be replaced.

    Advance function is very slow and basically friction of the cable with the handle.

    I would recommend something a little more heavy duty.

    THE PNEUMATIC FOOT PEDAL BROKE AFTER THE FIRST USE, RENDERING THE AUTO-ZONE TO THE DEAD-ZONE. If it weren’t for that, I guess it would serve its purpose, I just never had the opportunity to find out.
