The hose comes with 3 different adaptors to fit almost every pressure washer but it didn't fit mine. This was the only negative thing I have to say about this. I borrowed a better know brand from a family member (Bosch) and it fitted fine. I was a bit sceptical about this working as we'd already put a dozen bottles of drain unblocker down and caustic soda a few days before but no luck. The end nozzle and 1 forward facing jet and 3 rear facing jets. This is because the end of the nozzle self propels down the pipe. In my first instance, my drain wouldn't allow this because it was a trap then it had a S bend. So I had to feed this in by hand to get through the trap and over the hump. Once I had got past this, I was able to feed the hose in about 1 metre. I started the jet washer and after about a minute I saw something float back, it was 2 wipes! After this the hose seemed to be able to go in further, this time upto about 3 metres. This is where the main block was. I jetted this for a couple of minutes then went to the next drain (which was dry upto to now) and I could see black sludge flowing past. I knew I had made some progress. After I was happy with getting rid of the all the black sludge, try a bit further and it was clear water, so started to retract the hose out 10cm at a time and blasting it with the jet was. I did this until the hose came out (took about an hour iun total). This was a really bad block which had been like this for months on my daughter's new house, where she'd only moved in last month. The garden is fully decked over paving slabs and the sewage that had covered half the garden was awful. So this hose saved us hundreds of pounds if not 4 figures! One valuable tip, I would highly recommend using a high pressure with a high bar rating. If the blockage doesn't unblock first time then try a higher pressure washer.

The plumbers blocked drain rods are good quality, ease to use and good value for the money thank you

Bought these to extend some old rods I already had and they do the job. Others have commented about breaking - dont know what sort of bend they were trying to do but the ones I have are solid and certainly did not break when I used them. The thread is not identical to the old ones I wanted to use them with but close enough to enable me to attach them together and rod through the whole length I needed to.

Cheap but robust rods done the job no problem.

Not heavy duty one rod broke on 1st use

Got the job done and very durable.

value for money, very useful

Rods strong and ideal for straight runs from a large drain entry but not flexible enough for small drains with a 90 Deg bend. Also the rivet heads that secure the threaded ferrals of the rods catches on the drain pipe when removing the rods.
