Question 1

I saw this on QVC and wanted to buy it, but thanks to Amazon reviews I see that most of the verified purchase reviews were unfavorable, while the reviews that did not have verified purchase were glowing. Is this a fair observation?

Accepted Answer

Honest review here. i bought mine from home depot cuz if it doesn't work, you can return it. i  was skeptical after the gel drano and crystal heat didn't unclog our stubborn kitchen sink. we have problems with it every 6 months we need to get the plumber. anyhow, when all failed and right before i had to call a plumber again, i tried this. 1st pac cleared 60%, 2nd pac cleared 80% and the 3rd pac left overnight cleared it all. if i do it again, do it the overnight way.

Question 2

What's the main ingredient?  I can't tell from the photos.

Accepted Answer

I found a website that says the main ingredient is Sodium Bisulfate, Anhydrous Globular (NaH8O4) .  I was hoping for scum-eating bacteria. Anyway, all biodegradable. I'm a little skeptical about a reviewer's understanding when they parrotted the company line "Green Gobbler's active ingredient acts as an emulsifier to liquefy solids" which sounds like gobbledygook to me, the daughter of a chemist. Sodium Bisulfate is acidic, so that's why instructions are to keep it off metal surfaces and why it apparently also etches into porcelain products. I would wear rubber gloves when working with it.

Question 3

product works but in my bathtub, thought I had rinse any splashes or residue away..came back later to find a dark brown stain. How to remove it?

Accepted Answer

Sometimes this can happen. All you need to do is soak the area with hydrogen peroxide, let it sit, and then rinse with warm water and a sponge.

Question 4

Can it be used in kitchen sinks with a disposal?

Accepted Answer

We have used this in the bathroom sinks, the toilet which was pretty amazing, cleared the drain very quickly, actually removed the rust stain that had been on the commode for a very long time.  We did have an issue with the shower drain because we have a rain shower head, we did not get enough water into the drain which resulted in the entire house smelling like rotten eggs for many, many hours.  You need to have lots of water ready to go when you use this product.  It did, however, work!
