K-45AF Autofeed Drain Snake
(342 reviews)
This is the drain snake that lives in my van. The autofeed mechanism means you can operate it with one hand while guiding the cable with the other. At 25 feet with a 5/16" cable, it handles most residential drain clogs in sinks, tubs, and showers. For main line work you'd want something bigger, but for 90% of apartment calls, this is the one.
Best for: Apartment sink, tub, and shower drain clogs
