Rated 5 out of 5 by from Feels like a solid tool I’ve used th k-45 once, to clean out my bathroom sink drain line. It did a good job of opening up the line, in a short amount of time. It can be a little unorthodox, using the cleaner, because of its weight.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great piece of equipment. Much better than the hand crank snake. The auto feed works great! Would highly recommend to others in the industry. Very easy to use especially with auto feed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great! Work great on the smaller sinks etc. Just need to be patient and not try to go too far too fast. Great quality and simple to use. I would recommend this product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Simply the best!. I have for the past 33 years been head of Maintenance at a large touring Theatrical venue and I can quite honestly say that this is the best piece of kit that I have ever used. I bought the version with two drums for different size snakes. I can rod through solidly blocked urinal pipes (a pretty disgusting job) and stay perfectly clean. The self driving facility is superb. I have found all Ridgid tools to be first class.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from easy and quick After years of hard labour with unblock liquids and unblock springs, I found a last the best tool to unblock in a very fast way my sink: the K-45 of Ridgid. Not a toy, but a real professional tool made for years...

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice tool seems well built only used once so far worked great!Will have to use it more to know for sure.
Date published: 2017-09-24
Rated 2 out of 5 by from Poorly designed and equipped For the cost it should have come with the heavier snake, a spade, and cutter. The thin 5/16 Snake only poked a little hole in the blockage, very disappointed in purchase. Had to rip Out the pipes to clear blockage as this tool was not up to the challenge.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love the guid you never touch the snake Makes the job easy. I I cleaned house trap, toilet and a sink so far it pays for it self. Way better than the smaller snake way better than other brands . For some reason the metal box was not included that's my only complaint.
