    Did not work!

    Used the whole bottle, washed it down with hot water. Did not work

    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 - 1 month 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

    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.

    Doesn't Work

    I used this to try to clear a clogged shower drain. I followed the directions and ended up using the whole bottle. Still clogged. Waste of money.

    Works good but pricd too high

    It works however it takes the whole bottle to work. I have long thing hair . Very long, so my tub clogs constantly this has been saving me lol. However the price is high for an item like this especially since it needs multiple uses for clear a clog.

    Bad job

    The company does a horrible job in explaining what products are for what jobs I'm going to avoid this brand in the future and once I figured out how to use it it failed make it more clear on the bottle how the product works it should be very simple and basic to understand but it's not.

    Ordered two of these. They came less than a third full of liquid. There was no seal on either bottle. Clearly they were both used/emptied.

    Arrived clearly damaged and unusable!

    Target is no longer where we we'll spend our money! They won't allow us to return this or issue an obvious necessary refund! Why? Because it's on us to find a way to their store without transportation.

    Not impressed

    I have a really bad clog in my bathroom sink where the water just fills in the bowl and doesn’t drain. I used a whole bottle as directed and I still have the clog it’s not as bad but it still fills my sink. Blockage still there.
    1 reply from SC Johnson Consumer Care team - 4 months ago
    We understand that dealing with a clogged drain is frustrating, and we're sorry to hear that Drano® Max Gel Clog Remover didn’t power through it. If you’re still experiencing a slow-running drain after two applications, the clog may be deeper in the pipes than Drano® can reach. Since this didn't meet expectations, we’d appreciate the opportunity to learn more. Please give us a call at 1-800-558-5252 (weekdays, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. CT) and mention reference number: 23045477. Hope to hear from you soon!

    I've used Drano gel for many years, it really works usually in one application. This morning it took 3, but saved a call to the plumber.
