XionLab Safer, Greener Drain Clog Remover – Industrial-Strength Liquid Drain Cleaner for Hair & Grease – Septic Safe, Odorless, Biodegradable for Bathroom Sink, Bath Tub, & Shower Drain – 32 oz

It works! It's a little pricey but compared to the expense of a plumber +++In the past all others didn't do what this did. Be sure to follow instructions exactly. Definitely leave over night and boil a large pot of water (tea pot is not enough) and slowly pour down the drain. Voila! ++If this is biodegradable and a safer drain cleaner why all the dangerous warnings. Doesn't read as safe to me. Not sure maybe a requirement??Regardless use precautions as the instructions state. I wore gloves and eye protection. Cover any nearby appliances, dishes etc. or move away.The little inner silver plastic neck cover is hard to get off. I had to use a knife to puncture it and lift it off. That is okay for non toxic products but this could cause splatter in your face if not careful.It had a hard shrink wrap cover on the outer neck to prevent spills in shipment. ++

This product worked great! I had a slow draining bathroom sink that I suspected was junked up by some beauty products used during mini-facials. One application and the sink is back to normal with no back up or draining issues. Bonus is there is absolutely no smell at all!

My tub consistently ges clogged with hair. Over the years I've tried every drain cleaner you can imagine -- literally every one. Even used raw lye a few times. Nothing worked.Then I discovered this stuff on Bob Villa's site. His review says this is specifically for hair clogs and is the best.I doubted it would work, because as I said, I have literally tried everything. So I was more than skeptical. Plus, it's sort of pricey at twenty bucks a bottle (two uses). At the time I purchased this, the bottle with the two plastic hair grabbers was actually cheaper than the solo bottle so I bought that (it's the same price now).I didnt use the hair grabbers because they are sort of flimsy and the last thing I need is for it to get stuck and have a plastic strip clogging my drain along with the hair.Anyway, I meticulously followed directions and viola! the drain was cleared.After maybe a month I notice the drain was getting sluggish again and I found out why. My tub didnt have any hair catcher in the drain, just those wide holed circular things that do next to nothing for catching hair. So I removed it and put in a mushroom hair catcher you can buy on Amazon (buy the rubber ones, not the metal becauce they are way easier to clean).I went through the process again and haven't had an issue since.One caveat -- the instructions say to throw boiling water down the drain after the product sits in the drain roughly overnight. That's fine unless you have plastic pipes. Super hot water will temporarily expand your pipes at the joints and a little it of water will leak out. You won't notice it from your tub because it's not enough to seep thru your floor/ceiling.The only reason I know this is that we're renovating our kitchen which is directly under the upstairs bathroom and right now the ceiling is getting replaced so I can see directly up into the floor area of the bathroom. Putting boiling water down the drain upstairs caused maybe two tablespoons of water to drip down. I'd imagine if you use this stuff (or any other brand that says to add boiling water) frequently it could permanently mess up the joints in your pipes. But I'm not a plumber. Maybe just hot water from the tap is better/safer.

Excellent product. Good value. Would definitely recommend. Fast shipping.

My bathroom sink got to the point of backing up instead of just draining slowly. I tried one of those plastic hair-pullers, but it pulled very little out and stuffed the rest in solid. I let my fingers do the walking through the Amazon pages and found this. It claimed to be safer and greener AND industrial strength, so I gave it a whirl. I will admit that I poured the entire bottle down the drain and some of it sat in the sink for a short while, but I could see it was bubbling and some gunk floated up. I walked away and waited the full 8 hours before pouring a pot of boiling water down the drain. For a short moment the sink filled up, then I heard a clunk, and saw the water drain, and then another clunk, and it drained some more. I then turned the hot water on full blast and let it run for several minutes. That was last night. This morning my bathroom sink is draining better than ever!

I’ve purchased a few bottles of this drain cleaner so far. My first impression was disappointment that it is NOT completely non-toxic; however, it is greener than most products.That said, I went ahead and tried it on the shower and bathroom sinks that were running slow, and it did a great job, working well enough that I purchased a second time.However, when I needed it the third time, the product was out of stock and by the time I received it, my drain was clogged such that I was standing in water by the end of the shower. With those conditions, this product was unable to fully clear the clog, even after two applications. Maybe it would have cleared after another bottle, but I took another route.(For reference, the clog was most likely just hair and/or the usual films that can accumulate in drain systems.)I’m not sure if I’ll keep buying this as a maintenance product given the expense (I’ll probably try the old vinegar and baking soda routine first) but I will definitely be paying more attention to the timing of my maintenance routines so I can avoid the toxic stuff.

I have purchased this product at least 4 times and I like it a lot, it works very well. However, now the packaging is changed and the bottle is not see partially through, it is now opaque. That is not a good decision, since now you cannot see how much 50% of the bottle is to use it to the fill line. Did I get a defective bottle?
