Ridgid Powerclear Drain Cleaning Machine

I've been using the K-40 machine for years. I decided to give this guy a try, and I was very impressed. As long as you don't act like a meat head with the cable, and you pay attention to what you're doing (like you should with the K-40), this is a great go to if you're starting out, or don't have the cash to drop on the K-40. I have used mine many times already, and I am very, very happy with this. I have been in this business for 25 years, and I can vouch for the great operation and durability of this 'cheaper' version of the K-40. I love mine, that's all I can say. If you're going to trash a cable because you are either too impatient, or inexperienced, grab this machine first lol. Get good, then get fast.

Bought this last weekend to clear a kitchen sink drain that clogged well beyond the trap. Pulled the trap and snaked from there and it worked perfectly. Directions were simple to follow and the auger worked perfectly. I couldn't be happier with the purchase.
