The machine was pretty easy to use and it cleared my clog! The one thing I did was put a sandbag on the bottom bar behind the machine...It was kind of walking away from me as I worked the line down the drain, that sandbag worked perfectly to keep the machine in one spot. So glad I bought this, now I was doing my kitchen sink and the pipe was too small for 2 tools that it came with, the spring and the one that looks like a tab were the only ones I could use. After about an hour, it was down about 60 feet, my drain was clear and the water runs down the drain faster than I have ever seen it and I have lived here for over 30 years, That was a lot of Roto Rooter calls and of course Roto rooter bills, damn it, wish I would have bought this a long time ago.....Now you need to know 2 things, I purchased the clog chopper for $26.18 from Ferguson's and will use that next time as it has great reviews. follow link below for clog chopper. The other thing is the machine is pretty simple to use a when you get used to it, and use the sandbag, just take your time at first and you will get a good feel for it, the tricky part is the glove holding lightly onto the spinning cable while being fed in the pipe will get caught sometimes, that to me is the tricky part, just hold it lightly and be careful, if it gets caught, lift knee right away to turn it off. Actually am kinda looking forward to my next clog, although it is so cleaned out, it might be a while.....Now the one thing everyone should do if they have a clogged toilet quite often is, and this is a MUST...switch to 1-ply toilet paper. I did that and I have not had a clog in my toilet for so long, like over 4 years, has not clogged since I swithced over to 1-ply, when using 2 ply or that other stuff, it would literally clog once a year probably or more.....1-ply is the ticket for no more toilet clogs that Roto Rooter doesn't want anyone to know about...Really happy with my new machine..
