Turbo Snake Review

As Seen on TV, Clogs, Turbo

The Turbo Snake is a simply awesome drain snake which is supposed to quickly and easy clear shower clogs, unclog sinks and fix those slow draining tubs. But, does the Turbo Snake really work? Let’s just say I really needed it to when I bought it.

As Seen On TV products are kind of a sticky subject. You either love them or hate them and chances are you definitely laugh at the stupid infomercials. But, on thing I’ve noticed about As Seen On TV products is whether they work or not, they all address a problem that normal people continually have in their lives. Whether it’s foot pain, not enough closet space, getting a tricky stain out or in our case how to unclog a sink. So the need is there and I imagine most people who watch these late night infomercials, they have high hopes and low expectations for these products. That’s one reason why I always go to the as seen on tv product reviews before I dare to buy anything.

The turbo snake reviews were great. It was hard to find anything negative being said about this handy little drain snake. I will admit that one review I read mentioned that after fixing shower clogs, the turbo snake was hard to clean. This problem stems from the design of the head used to grab onto the hair in drains which cause most clogs. You do have to pick a few hairs of the Turbo Snake when you are finished unclogging but that’s actually a cool thing.

Picking wet hair out of a drain snake isn’t the cool part. The cool part is the fact that the hair is actually stuck to the Turbo Snake means the darn thing works! In fact I’m almost willing to say this drain snake
is the best drain cleaner out there. I know saying something is the best drain cleaner is hard to quantify but hear me out. My list of reasons makes sense. (well, at least to me)

1. The turbo snake is a drain snake. It’s green because there are no toxic and smelly chemicals.

2. You don’t need to learn how to unclog a sink. You just shove the turbo snake down the drain and twist.

3. Having your own drain snake means no more plumbers with hefty bills.

4. The only negative comment I found was that you had to clean your turbo snake. (big deal)

I will admit that I found a few complaints about the time it took for the product to arrive, but I’m not exactly sure from whom, or where the product was ordered. I also found one complaint that some guy lost the hook that comes with the order, but that sounds like a personal problem to me.

To me the turbo snake is the best drain cleaner because it solved my problem, and so far, continues to do so. My problem is that I have daughters. Ok, let me rephrase that. My life is amazing because I have daughters. (better)
But my lovely little girls have long hair and they think it’s beneath them to lean down and yank their hair from the shower and bathroom sink drains. I have three girls and it always seems to be their sisters hair. So dear old dad
gets to unclog a sink or two and clear the shower clogs.

Liquid drain cleaners don’t do much. They are supposed to chemically break down the clogs but they don’t work well and they are highly toxic. Commercial drain snakes are expensive and usually come with a plumber attached. So having my own little drain snakes makes sense for me. The standard Turbo Snake Offer delivers a larger shower drain snake along with a smaller drain snake for sinks, and a wall hook. This combo is perfect for most any home. I would assume because of the price there are profossional plumbers and maintenence people who are using the Turbo Snake on their jobs. So that’s my turbo snake review. It’s a review from a real guy who used the turbo snake to solve a real problem.
