What Customers Are Saying

Waste of money

Would Not Recommend

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.

Bad job

Would Not Recommend

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.

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.

Fast working

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This gel worked very very fast! My drain was very clogged for a very long time and even the appearance is better. Most gels for the drains have to be used more than once but this one was noticeable different after 1 single use.

Clear Drain

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Max Gel Drain Clog Remover did it's job! I've had a stubborn sink clog for quite some time and after 20 minutes my sink was clear and drained again! There was no overpowering chemical smell that you can find in other brands. The instructions were easy to follow!

Super effective and easy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This worked really well! I used the gel along with one of those drain stick tools to pull out hair first, and then poured the Drano in after to clear out whatever was left. Within 30 minutes the drain was running like new. The combo made a big difference, especially in a bathroom sink that clogs often. Easy to use, no harsh smell, and didn’t damage the pipes. Definitely something I’ll keep under the sink for future clogs.

A great helper

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really nice simple packaging that identify the product really well. I liked that it doesn't have a bad scent and that it is safe to use and store. I will buy it again for clogged tubes that sometimes happens at home. a good value to buy again.

Unclogs Well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Drano worked pretty well! I used it in my bathroom sink, and the drain cleared. It’s very easy to use, no harsh smell, and it got the job done fast. Definitely my go-to for unclogging drains at home!

Dramo

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The product is unscented and any faint odor dissipates fairly quickly with ventilation. Max Gel Drain Clog Remover (s a reliable, no-frills choice for tackling common clogs in sinks, tubs, and showers. Its mild scent, solid effectiveness on typical blockages, user-friendly packaging, and good cost-to-performance ratio make it a worthwhile household tool—provided users follow safety guidelines and recognize its limits in extreme cases.
