    No measurement lines on bottle

    Haven't used yet, but instruction say to use 1/5 of the bottle without any way to measure 1/5 of bottle except to pour into measuring cup to 16oz, which is 1/5 of the 80 fl oz bottle. Would make it much easier if bottle had some kind of clear or translucent line every 16oz.n

    "It Works"

    Product works great! We use it anytime that the Kitchen sink smells or backs up! We just pour, wait to allow it to work. Then, run water to see it go down and no longer a sink!

    Impossible to measure

    Per instructions, user should pour 1/5 bottle (16 oz) into drain. How the heck can that be measured? No markings on red odd shaped bottle (that no one could see level of anyway)! C’mon S.C. Johnson, can’t you do better than that?

    love the Product

    Love the product but don't like that when I go to pick up my item from target.The people bringing the item out never take it to my side passenger window as requested. They constantly come to the driver's side and hand it to me. i don't like this because usually when I order this way it's because i'm sick.

    Did not work!

    Used the whole bottle, washed it down with hot water. Did not work
    1 reply from SC Johnson Consumer Care team - 2 months ago
    We're sorry to hear this didn't clear your clog as expected. Typically two applications dissolve tough clogs. It's possible the one you're dealing with is further down the drain and we'd recommend consulting a plumber. That said, our team is here to help and we can be reached at 1-800-558-5252 (weekdays between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. CT). Be sure to provide your reference number: 23229524. Have a good day!

    Waste of money

    I bought this- used the entire bottle, as instructed on the bottle, for my bathroom shower. NOT A BUDGE. Waste of money and time. Still have standing water in tub. Took 45 minutes to drain.
    1 reply from SC Johnson Consumer Care team - 2 months ago
    We're sorry to hear Drano® Max Gel Clog Remover missed the mark. As your clog is still present, we recommend contacting a plumber as it may be further down than this product can reach.

    Great product! Cleared up months long clog in just 15 minutes!

    Worked great for sink in my college student's bathroom sink in her dorm apartment. The sink was clogging non-stop everytime someone used the sink. Clog was cleared up within 15 minutes of use. Just make sure to pour boiling hot water down the drain to activate gel. 10 out of 10! Would recommend!

    Don't bother spending your money

    Purchase this product after spending close to 40-50 reading the small print on each of Draino products. Now I have to wait for Monday and call a plumber
    1 reply from SC Johnson Consumer Care team - 3 months ago
    Thanks for reaching out. We're sorry to hear you're dealing with a clog. We expect Drano® Max Gel's thick formula to cling to clogs and clear them fast, especially after two applications. However, if the clog is too far down Drano® may not be able to reach, and we'd suggest contacting a plumber. We'd like to learn more about your experience. Please give our experts a call at 1-800-558-5252 (weekdays between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. CT) and mention reference number: 23095169.

    This really worked on my toilet! I was super excited because I bought some stuff from another store and it didn't work so I was really worried. however this worked well, only if you follow the instructions! Do Not go outside of the instructions, otherwise it may not work.
