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 - 7 days 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.

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.

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.

Don’t waste your money!

Only wasted money on this because it doesn’t work what a scam!!!

We're sorry to hear this didn't work as expected to clear your drain. Typically, two applications work to effectively dissolve tough clogs to restore the flow. As this wasn't your experience, we want to make this right. Please give us a call at 1-800-558-5252 (weekdays between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. CT) and provide your reference number: 23062589.

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 - 3 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!

We had a clogged shower drain and one jar of Drano max gel was enough to clear it out. It worked as expected by following the instructions on the back. Easy and straightforward. I did let it work for around 30 mins and then turned the water on

Good stuff

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.

Great at unclogging!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great product!! It kinda smells like chlorine to me, so even though it doesn’t have a yummy scent, it gets the job done easily as long as you follow instructions, but you might want to clear out of the bathroom while you wait. There’s a good amount of the product too so it’ll last you a while, if you tend to shed more hair it’ll last you a little less but it’s still a great amount!

Slow

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The instructions are very clear. To me it works soo slow! I definitely need another one to complete the job. It’s smells strong which isn’t bad the sent of the clog needed to be neutralized.

It is fast

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Drano Max Gel works fast and cuts through clogs without any hassle. It handles hair and gunk really well, even when there’s standing water. It’s reliable, easy to use, and a good thing to keep around for quick fixes.

Does the job

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The instructions are clear on how to use it which I appreciated. It seems to work well. The bottle has quite a few scary warnings which I don’t love, I’d love a cleaner product that works as good but I know that’s not always possible. Luckily the bottle is sturdy and I’m not worried about it breaking. The packaging is appealing and fits the product well.
