YES! Drain-O never works (and I’ve heard, depending on what pipes you have, it’s not good for your plumbing either). I literally only have wire hangers for jimmying things open or getting things out of drains.
Better than what happened to my parents. It was draining SUPER poorly. Then just got…fine. Then the moldy smell came.
Then the plumber came. Turns out the four inch sewer drain had rusted to a half inch. Had to be replaced. They live in a ranch, so the concrete had to jackhammered up.

THANK YOU.
My wife prefers plastic hangers, would have thrown out all our wire hangers long ere now.
I fight to keep wire hangers around JUST for such an occasion. They WORK.
And OH MY GOD what they have pulled from the bathroom sink (shudder).

Oh NO. That is just terrible! Man…I never felt so lucky to just pull a giant glob of hair out of the drain XD
