Great for unclogging car drain
Have a t32 xtrail and after noticing wet front door wells realised we had clogged sunroof drains. Bought this after seeing people on Nissan forums say a drain snake would help. Well it worked like a charm. Now have 2 unclogged sunroof drains. Worth the money and saves a very expensive trip to nissan

Goes Round Tight Bends of Small Pipes
Well I had a blockage on the bath waste (40mm pipe) that I already knew was beyond the U bend and chemicals and plunging couldn't shift it despite several vigorous attempts (even with everything thing else attached to this pipe blocked up with bungs or tape). So I considered the Rothenberger Corded Drain Coil which seems to be the preffered choice but decided to give this a go, being a bit cheaper, longer, more robust looking and no silly handle thing. Well with plenty of persistence it went straight through the U bend, past a 90degree bend and eventually through another bend. It's a bit unnerving trying to shove it firmly back and forth to manipulate it round the bends, the thought of it blowing a seal of something in the depths of the floor was at the forefront of my mind but find the blockage it did and the satisfaction of having found it was imense. I followed up with a full on plunging session with everything blocked off yet again to make sure it was clear as much as it could be. It would have been nice to have been able to stick a pipe cleaner type head in the pipe to make sure it was clean/smooth inside after the rodding (like the one on the Rothenberger) but I can't see how getting that thing through the array of bends and let alone retrieving it with it still attached to the end would be possible. Recommended but you need to be firm and persistant.

Terrible do not buy!
This will scratch your toilet, only augers used by plumbers won’t, these ones for people who want to do diy will damage the bowl and scrap the ceramic enamel off

Miracle worker
I bought this to unblock my toilet after trying many things. 2 minutes later and all cleared. Started with inserting spiral end but wasn't moving blockage so turned it around and the thicker end moved the blockage in no time

Waste of money
I bought this to try and unblock a bath drain but it’s too flexible to go round a bend in a pipe. Buy a plunger instead

Worked well on blocked toilet
After my partners opioid induced firm stools after surgery I had a blocked toilet with the added complexity of non dissolving wet wipes. Nothing would budge this until I used this tool. Not sure how to clean it after the event but the job is done and for a great price. I was worried this might mark the porcelain but it didn’t seem to and I was prodding and turning for sometime.

Can help with sluggish drain
Outside drain partially blocked. We don't put any fats or oil down. I followed a suggestion above and attached it to a battery drill. I fed it as far in as I could down the grid into the U bend with gloved hand then slowly started to turn it with the drill. It only went down about four feet and would go no further BUT when I withdrew it a ball of fibrous stuff was attached; perhaps dish cloth bits. I tried a second time and got a bit more. The drain is much improved

Nice bit of kit but didn't solve the problem
We have a blocked sink drain with no u-bend or bottle trap and insufficient space to unscrew the down pipe (thank you David Wilson Homes - great build quality there!!). Tried this and managed to get a small amount of gunk out, but it's now draining worse than before, so we're trying Buster Bathroom Plughole Unblocker next. I think this product could work well, but just depends on your pipes and the blockage. I was impressed that it was skinny enough to fit down the plughole, which is obscured by the plug fitting. It is as sturdy as you could expect it to be given that it needs to be able to fit around bends in the pipe. 4 star instead of 5 because the spiral at the end has bent slightly in my attempts to unblock, but still completely usable. A nice bit of kit to have.
