Works as advertised

Does exactly what its supposed to!
Would Recommendvery easy to replace the old one with the new one. I had sewage smells coming up from the previous one since it broke (it was the $6 version). I spent the extra money for this one and was super easy to take off the old one and replace it with this new one. immediately I noticed a difference. No more sewage smell! Definitely recommend this product.
