Answer This Question
A:Â Based on the information you've provided, it seems like you're dealing with a significant blockage in your sewer line. In this case, it would be advisable to go for the larger size sewer bladder. The large size will allow for better pressure and coverage, which can help clear the blockage effectively. Keep in mind that it's essential to follow the instructions provided with the Husky Large Drain Bladder and take proper safety precautions while using it. If the problem persists or you're unsure about how to proceed, it might be best to consult a professional plumber to ensure the issue is resolved correctly.

Broke first use
Followed instructions to the letter, yet the bladder blew off the fitting and stayed in the drain, all that I pulled out was the hose with the screw on union and little plastic inner part. The balloon is further clogging the drain. I sure wish I had read these reviews before I tried this! Going to be horrible to fix. Lifetime warranty is a joke: replace the $12 part with another that will likely also fail in a $300 plumber visit? No thanks.

I should have used this first!!
It works great. I had a clog in the master bathroom sink. I tried several things 1st but the didn’t work. I knew the clog was pasted the p-trap so I put it directly into the pipe in the wall.
I suggest you take the bladder outside to show the person turning on the water just how much they need to turn it to have the bladder expand. We didn’t do that the 1st try and turned the water on to slowly and the bladder didn’t expand quickly enough so water leaked out of the pipe.

Worked well but for one use
Did what was advertised: got the water flowing down the drain again for the washing machine. Developed a blister after one use. I've heard of these popping and sending chunks of rubber down the drain so I wouldn't feel comfortable using this one again. I used the hot water faucet for the hose, so maybe that caused the issue. Note if you plan on using the water hookups for a washing machine both ends are female - plan to use a garden hose instead.

Failed immediately
Bladder failed immediately on the first use leaving the missing rubber pieces in the pipe at the blockage. Next step is to call a plumber to recover the rubber and clear the clog. A Lifetime Warranty is worthless on an item that fails on the first use. DON'T waste your money!

worked like a charm
hooked it to the hose, stuck it down the pipe, turned the water on slowly. 10 minutes later I turned the water off and bam! no more clog.

Worked for me!
We were in big trouble. Blocked driveway drain and more heavy rains were approaching. Looked online and read about something called a blow bag. They had this one at Home Depot. Attached it to the hose, put it in our 4-inch PVC drainpipe, turned it on a few times and YES! The drain was clear. When the heavy rains came a couple of hours later, that pipe drained it like a champ. It's a simple concept and it doesn't work on every blockage. But it worked on ours. It sure beat renting a snake and fighting that battle, not to mention being a LOT cheaper. Many thanks to the employee at Home Depot who told me it would work and just to have patience and let it work 5 or 6 times.

It burst
It burst on the first try. 3/4 of the bladder got stuck inside the drain pipe.

Blew up in my face
I had it pushed up into the pipe a foot or so, turned on the water and was standing back watching it and it suddenly burst blowing raw sewage out the pipe like a cannon it hit me all over, got in my mouth, eyes and nose. It was the nastiest thing i have ever had happen in my life. Unless you enjoy the taste and smell of sewage and wearing it head to foot, then I highly DO NOT RECOMEND this.

It burst and created more problems
attached this to our hose and put it in the drain opening so the pressure could push clog through. Turned on garden hose and balloon burst after a couple of minutes and the worst part is parts of the balloon went down into the clogged pipe. Ended up having to call plumber to snake line and because pieces of this balloon were in the line it cost more to run a camera in the line to find the pieces and remove them. Worthless product, do not buy.

I was at my whits end and ready to rent the commercial drain auger on clearing my kitchen sink. I spent the better part of a day using a 25' auger (using my drill) followed by adding drain cleaner but the clog wouldnt give. It just didn't have a big enough of a diameter on the end to break up the clog. I saw this product, read the reviews and here is what I did. Becuase its for my kitchen sink I used the Hot Water supply line to attach the garden hose and this bladder. It required buying a short water supply line and connector to a garden hose. The bladder and garden hose is very rigid, but with running hot water through the line it makes it very flexible. Snaking the bladder and hose into, and out of the pipes was the most difficult process making it past the first 90 deg turn into the wall. After that it worked exactly as advertised. I will now leave the hose and attachments connected and stored for the next time I need it. Start to finish, this took 10 minutes and most of that time was disconnecting and reconnecting the pipes under the sink.
