I am a gadget person. This review is for the Cobra Zip It Drain Cleaning Tool. We've had issues w/ a slow running sink drain in our back bathroom. That's where I comb my hair in the morning, so I'm pretty sure that's what's doing it. We've tried baking soda/vinegar/boiling water w/ middling success and caustic chemicals years ago and then more recently w/ less success. And we don't like using chemicals if we can help it. Last week Alan went to Pastime, our local hardware store, where he spoke w/ one of their staff, who recommended this to him. He brought it home, used it et voilá! A fast running drain. What he pulled out looked gross, but being grossed out is a small price to pay. Speaking of small prices, he said it was only about $3.50. The package says to throw it away after each use, but we won't do that. He removed the gunk w/ some TP and put it in the green waste bin. He rinsed off the tool and hung it on the tool pegboard in the garage for the next time. One of my Facebook friends told me they've been using the same one for the past 5 years. Evidently we're late to this party, but I'm telling everyone I know about this fabulous gadget! read more
