Waste of money
Poured the whole bottle into the blocked sink and nothing happened. It does not help to dissolve hair clogs as claimed in the label of the bottle. Misleading advertising for sure

Works with a little help
My shower drain was completely blocked up. I followed the instructions on the bottle and poured half the contents into the pooled water around the drain. After 30 minutes nothing appeared to change so I flushed the shower with hot water. Still no change at that point. I gave it some more time (an hour or 2) and still the drain was clogged. The magic secret, as others have stated here that the product needs a little help in the form of a plunger (or a toilet brush in my case) to get the water flowing. With a little bit of motion this product worked like a charm.

It actually works
I'm a sceptic when it comes to these sorts of products. I moved into a temporary property from another city and realised the bathroom sink was incredibly clogged. I found this product at Coles Supermarket. I used this according to the instructions but used the whole bottle and after 20 minutes it was completely unblocked. Would highly recommend before using plunger or calling a plumber!!

Works Well for the right job
Our shower was progressively getting worse at draining. I was told by a family member to try a drain cleaner before getting a plumber. So I randomly chose this one off the shelf at Bunnings, and made sure to read ALL INSTRUCTIONS, including those on the back of the bottle.
Followed the main instructions to the dot. The notice in water drain speed was instance and was 100 times better just after one application.
There's still half a bottle left, so I'll use that next week as instructed, even though it has already done it's job.

A lifesaver
We have two sinks in our en-suite and the left one always gets blocked.
Im not sure why that drain is always blocked but I believe it could be from all the make up products my wife washes down as that sink is hers.
Lately, shes been using my side because hers is as mentioned above. Funnily enough, my side is now slowly draining.
I have used Mr Muscle a lot and it has never failed me. In fact, I used it a few minutes ago on the left sink and at first, I thought this time it didnt work because the other times, the Mr Muscle liquid would go r...
Read moreight into the pipes but this time, the gel was just sitting there. I left it for a few minutes and all of a sudden, the gel fell right through. I immediately ran the sink with hot water as stated on the back of the bottle. Instructions say you should wait 15-30 minutes but I was about to go to bed and didn't want to risk leaving it overnight.Purchased in at Woolworths for $14.

It did an amazing job!
Didn't expect much and was getting ready to call a plumber in as the clog was very bad but still gave this a try and surprisingly it did work perfectly. It saved me lots of time and money.

Didn't think it was working but cleared away drain perfectly
Used half bottle down shower drain as per directions but forgot and left for longer than recommended rises with hot water seemed to be worse first. Repeated and put some in connecting basin and worked wonders after running hot water for a while!

Did not unclog drain outside kitchen
I bought this from Coles & got a full refund from Coles, as it did not work as promised. I had a drain hole just outside the kitchen behind the kitchen sink. The sink did not overflow, but washing up water with little food bits were coming out of the drain outside each time water ran down the kitchen.
After pouring half of the product down the sink & even the drain hole, & waiting the required time & flushing with water, nothing cleared. Repeated the process with the other half of the bottle, no change. Even after i used a hose to try ...
Read moreto put pressure down the drain hole nope no improvement. A plumber came & simply put a small plunger into the drain hole & immediately the drain cleared! He said it was a build up of grease from food & probably pouring used cooking oil down the sink. I didn't know you could easily pull out the grill cover to access the pipe otherwise would have done so myself! He said don't use these kinds of products & the chemicals are no good & smell very strong. I would have been fuming at the call out charge had he not also fixed other things in my house to make the time worth it! And I was also nearly scammed on the phone by other plumbers who diagnosed over the phone that the drain needs to be realigned it might well be tree roots!- 5 reviews

It made the problem worse
My kitchen sink was extremely slow draining. I bought Mr Muscle Drano Ultra Gel and followed the directions on the back of the bottle - I slowly poured the entire bottle down the drain. Five days later there is a scum covered inch or so of water/product sitting in my sink looking like an alien swamp and letting off fumes into my kitchen while I wait for my real estate agent to get a plumber out here. TLDR; now instead of a slow drain I have a toxic waste pit in my house. I will never buy this product again.
Mr Muscle
I tried this product and it simply did not work very disappointed claiming it unblocks drains . not a good product i would recommend it and will not buy any products from this company at all.
Questions & Answers
Does this help to dessolve the cardboards stuck in the drain and blocking it??
This is what Mr Muscle say about their product: "Mr Muscle likes a clean drain, which is why he’s created Mr Muscle® Drano® Ultra Gel for fully blocked drains. It clears total blockages, penetrates st...
Read moreanding water, and is professional strength." So based on that i'd say it would.no it only dissolves built up fats and grease ... ie simple organic matter. I would suggest you keep pouring hot water down the drain to soften cardboard ( how the heel did that get there? ) and eventuality it will flow away with the water.
It didn't work
So the better idea is to keep flushing hot water now to dissolve it
Thats the only solution or spend freaking $500 for a plunbing job (no way)
