Luigi’s Sink and Drain Plunger for Bathrooms, Kitchens, Sinks, Baths and Showers. Small and Powerful, Commercial Style ‘Plumbers Plunger’ with Large Bellows
LOOKS WEIRD BUT IT WORKS
This unique plunger uses water instead of air to blast away blockages. The accordion design creates powerful pressure with every thrust and a strong vacuum with every pull for 8x more force than a typical plunger.
BLASTS BEYOND THE U-BEND
Unlike traditional plungers, ours features a soft, flexible bellow that fits over all drains to dislodge debris beyond the U-bend of sink lines or blockages wedged deeply within waste lines.
REUSABLE, COST EFFECTIVE
This plunger is not only easy to use but can be used again and again thus making for a cost-effective option. Skip the call to the plumber, opt for our DIY solution, and get the job done at a fraction of the cost.
CLEAN WITHOUT TOUCHING
To clean without touching the plunger, simply spray with a cleaning agent and rinse with clean water to clear the chamber of residue. The small size of this plunger allows for compact, sanitary storage.

This is great so far so good!
This has just arrived and I put it straight to use. I now have a free flowing kitchen sink with little effort and great results
Ideal!
I was shocked when this arrived as it didn’t have any rubber to grip the bottom of the shower but it works a treat.
I have had others before that corrode because of metal parts. This doesn’t have that so it should be long lasting!
Little miracle
Where has this plunger been all my life ? An excellent product so easy to use and clean with hardly any effort best by far I have ever used. Would highly recommend.
Spectacular, no longer the poor brother of Mario
A wonderful product, simple and effective. Cleared a bath drain blocked by baby oil body wash faster than Donkey Kong smashes barrels. Truly the Princess Peach of plungers, just keep it safe from baddies trying to steal it for themselves!
Luigi He Fantastico !!
After pouring 3 different bottles of different drain cleaner down the shower plug hole (with zero effect) we saw a review for Luigis and jumped right in ! Fast delivery from Amazon as usualthe pump felt a little bit plasticky when I opened it, but with faith in my heart, I put the shower on at a low level, put the plunger over the plug hole and pumped away ! 30 seconds later and I heard that ‘slooosshhh’ sound that told me the blockage had been cleared !!! Fantastico !! Eets anothero draino clearedo foro Luigio !!! As Gino saidAnd if my Grandma had wheels she would have been a bike Great product, 5
Luigi’s plunger is essential basic plumbing kit.
It is a basic go-to piece of kit every household needs to cope with inevitable everyday sink and drain blockages. Hair and/or soap blockage – no problem, this will do the job. Easy to clean. Not as easy to answer. It is not just a wipe clean and re-use job to get all the gunge fron the inside and outside of the plunger. It might need a bit of soaking and disinfecting to restore it to pristine condition for re-use or stink free storage, ready to go again.
It seems to be fairly durable, but I cannot swear as to how long the silicone rubber skirt will stand up under energetic usage – if it splits or cracks at any time, then its bye-bye to its effectiveness. Suction power is good, far better than I expected
Overall, happy with the purchase so far, much cheaper than calling a plumber!
I will give this top marks.
If this was rubbish, hard to clean or flimsy, I’d say so. I’m glad to say it’s the complete opposite. I’m happy to say, as a disabled woman, it’s very good to have this around.
Cleared the blockage first time
Had tried other plungers but this one cleared it first time. Impressed
It Works!
It Works! Simple, effective, easy to use & no harmful chemicals going down the (shower) waste outlet; also easy to clean off after use – just rinse it, inside & out with the shower hand-set, prop up to air-dry then put it away – out of sight as it’s not the most aesthetically pleasing object to have on display; but IT WORKS! Well done, Luigi. Cheers, Arthur B
Greatest thing I have ever purchased
Bought this as our traditional plunger gave out. This looked a bit gimmicky, but it’s brilliant. Many times more powerful than the old, traditional plunger. Doddle to use, makes a tight seal. Clogs don’t stand a chance. Really good piece of kit. Unfortunately, everything in the house now flowing smoothly, so it’ll be a while until I need to use it again. 🙁
Brilliant !!!!
Best plunger ever , bought as highly recommend by others , cleared sink in no time , so easy to use , brilliant suction for so little effort , very easy to clean too , purchase this item you won’t be disappointed
Did the job
Bought it , delivered the next day and used immediately to unclog my Bathroom washhand basin. Job done.
Best £10 I've spent on a long time!!!
Wow did an amazing job.
I spent weeks trying to clear my basin plughole using an ordinary plunger, well-known brand sink un-blockers, soda Crystals and boiling water without success. This took 10 mins.
instantly it unblocked the sink
Don’t hesitate to get this product it works perfectly It took out things like kids toys i wasn’t expecting to be in the bathroom sink
The best by fa
I tried everything to unblock my sinks including chemicals, traditional plunger. The block came back every 3 to 5 weeks. I bought this based upon the rave reviews and agree it’s the real deal. Worth every penny and then some.
The only solution that worked
I tried chemicals, cleaning the pipes, poking with a wire it never worked as the clog seemed further down the pipe.
The plunger worked superbly. Make sure that your system is 100% airtight (ie if you have 2 sinks make sure the other one is sealed and don’t forget the overflow holes on top of the sinks) for a quick result.
Great drain plunge
I’ve been having problems with both an old sink and an old bath. I prefer to use eco-friendly methods and had tried a few. I had a very old sink plunger, but that didn’t work. Luigi’s Plunger worked very quickly. Lovely to have water running away again!
Amazing
I don’t often review stuff but this fixed my problem in about 1 minute. Granted I did clean out the pipes prior but still it did an excellent job. I bought a bunch of other tools that I’ll now be returning because this did the job.
Grea
This is really powerful. I’ve been using the same plunger for years, one I inherited off my late mother, the rubber went and it was time to update, so I got this, I wasn’t sure at first, but it has got some welly behind it! I’m happy with it.
Can't believe it, but IT WORKED!
I have an en suite that is I’n the middle of a large detached house with a drain run in the floor with obviously insufficient fall, and it blocks. The last time I had the plumber out for this he used industrial chemicals and eventually managed to clear it, but he almost gave up. Nothing budged it, no amount of effort. It was blocked solid.
The builder had suggested that we renew the pipe with a larger section, but that could be problematic because of the long run and having to take up all the floors, so when the sink blocked again last week, and the sink plunger didn’t touch it, and drain unblocked chemicals and crystals didn’t touch it, I decided to buy this super-sized plunger as a last resort before calling the plumber again.
Within five minutes, it was clear. This is miraculous!
I plunged the sink in and out, with force, with the vast volume of the bellows, and it just dragged all this gravel-like grey stuff out. Tons of it. The key to this is simply the volume of the plunge, dragging it back and forwards until the blockage is broken down. Rather than send all the debris down the drain again, I scooped out the sink as much as I could and carried on. Eventually I took off the trap and emptied that too. When it was running, I filled the sink with water with the plug in, then blasted the water down under pressure outwards, then repeated this a few times. Within a minute of two the drain is running faster than it ever has. This is miraculous! The only danger I anticipated was that the pressure under force may have broken a pipe joint, but it didn’t.
Now I will be using this once a month to keep things flowing properly.
The materials are flimsy and the handle isn’t sturdy, so I expect this to split very soon, but the thing works like a charm and not only has this saved me plumbers bills, but probably a rebuild of the drainage system too. I’d love a professional quality version of this item, but for now, this is worth it’s weight in gold.
(Edit: I thought about this further and realised that the flimsy nature of the handle and bellows is a safeguard against blowing out the drainage joints. It is intentionally weaker than the drainage run joints as a failsafe. Makes sense)
I didn’t expect it to work, but it really does, when everything else has failed. Also, it fits over the flip-disc type plugs when an ordinary plunger struggles.
Very highly recommended
Easy sink unblocking
Diameter may be a little large for some very small basin wastes. Still works, just a bit more pressure needed to keep the seal if a very small basin has a curved base. First rate plunger though! No more blocked waste pipes.
It works
It unblocked the sink plug hole in a few minutes. Standard plastic moulded plunger with bellows – cleared blockage and water no longer builds up in sink – runs straight down plug hole. 9.99 from Amazon – should be half the price – for what it is. You can probably pick up something similar at a bargain shop for less. Easily cleaned in hot soapy water followed by beach or disinfectant and left to air dry. Ball on top of handle may be useful for people with stiff or weak hands.
Much better than chemicals
For years I used to waste money and pollute the environment with cillit bang and the like, when all you need is one of these! After a particularly bad blockage that wouldn’t clear after 2 applications of chemicals, I got this and cleared the whole thing in a few minutes.
Amazing!
We’d used all sorts of chemical cleansers etc to clear our kitchen sink but nothing had worked. I bought this but wasn’t convinced – I was wring! After reading the reviews, I filled the sink with a bit of water& popped this over the plug. Couple of plunges & the sink drained straight away. I would definitely recommend this little miracle worker!
Cleared a slow-draining sink (with a little help)
Other reviews commented that a few plunges with this bad boy was able to remove their blockages, but that wasn’t the case for me…
I had a drain that had a lot of gunk below the plug-hole. I could see it there, but no chemicals worked in getting rid of it. I thought this would do the trick, but after a few plunges, there blockage was still there. Perhaps that’s because the drain wasn’t completely blocked – there was a tiny hole through which water would drain.
I then threw some ‘muscular’ sink unblocker down, and during the hot water rinse, I did some plunging, but the gunk was still there.
After a poke with a skewer to release the gunk a little, a couple of plunges got rid of all the gunk.
So I’m not sure if it was the sink unblocker or the skewer, or a combination of all three, but this sink had never been unblocked before; however, after buying this product, I can see to the bottom of the U-bend.
As a result, this still gets 5 stars, as it helped me do what I couldn’t do before.
Power unblocke
Well, never thought that I would review a plunger, but the sink had started to drain real slow and the old style one I had just did not do anything. After reading a review of another plunger in which was suggested that this Luigi is better I took the plunge :], so the volume of air/water in this thing is much greater and after 2 go’s, me and the sink, draining board was covered in muck, dam effective, sink drains great now.
Fantastic!
My shower was slow to drain away,no matter how many liquids,gels,handymen etc. I tried.Short of ripping out an 18month old poorly fitted bathroom,which I can’t afford to do just yet,after reading the reviews,I bought a luigis sucker. It is amazing! A couple of pumps,a huge,very satisfying glugging sound and the water disappears. Just brilliant.
Luigi to the rescue !
I’d used my old plunger for the bath that was blocked and feared the worst when sweat started dripping realising I might need the drain people .
Looked on amazon seen this as a best seller and thought I’d give it one more go.
No kidding I filled bath and sink up then started plunging , there was hair , hair bobbles toy clothes all being pushed out by luigi and then away the water went ! Did the sink also with equally good results ! I’ve now got a happy wife so I’ve a happy life ! Great produc
Fantastic plunger for stubborn blockages.
Purchased this plunger as I live in a flat and the drains block and back up quite bad and regularly ever since I moved in. The council hardly do anything about it and when they do sen some on it unblocks for a while then blocks back up. Decided to get this instead of always calling up. Worked a treat. No blockages for now and has been clear for a month! RECOMMEND!
Surprised how well this worked!
Like a few others I ordered this as a last resort for a blocked kitchen sink. I had tried commercial liquid agents, and vinegar and baking soda. I’d removed all the U bends and cleaned them out, and spent 2-3 hours with a flexi rod trying move the blockage. I was on the point of giving up and calling a plumber when I thought I’d order this and give it one last try. Literally plunged twice and the blockage shifted! Maybe my 2-3 hours with a flexi-rod had helped? Also you have to create a closed system for this to work – my system had 2 openings, both of which I sealed/blocked first using whatever I had to hand! I’ve added some photos. Once I’d done this, this plunger worked a treat. I have their version of a toilet plunger too, and likewise that was really effective. Would definitely recommend!
Does exactly what it says - outstanding!
Having struggled with slow-draining bathwater for literally years, trying to use cheap plungers that hurt your hands and never seemed to actually DO anything, finally along comes this and, after just the first try, the water’s going down straightaway without backing up as I shower. Trust me, this product works. It’s put an end to years of frustration and standing-in-5cms-of-water-in-the-shower misery. Highly recommend. Also super easy to use and doesn’t hurt your hand or require much force, if your manual dexterity or strength is an issue for you.
Seems to work well, but no real instructions.
Seemed to do the job, but difficult to tell as used along with lots of pipe cleaner. Easy enough to use though.
Annoyingly didn’t come with specific instructions to get best from it. Label around the collar had a web address that directed you to a fake website. But this seems to be a copy of a branded version, so looked at that for usage.
Could do with rubber seal but works well
Works well but could do with a rubber seal where the device meets the sink or bath as it slides around a lo
Well that was easy.
I was surprised that the recommended way to use this is to push down slowly then pull back quickly to create suction. I was expecting to use it to try to pump more water down the pipe. However the recommendation really worked well. The sink was working well again very quickly and with little effort.
One point to note is that you need to cover the overflow in the sink otherwise you just stuck air back from there.
Excellent!!!
Have had problems with a blocked bath for month, traditional plunger just didn’t do anything so bought this. Initially using it nothing happened but having used it as a bath full of water drained there was incredible suction and loads came up!! Our drain is now unblocked! No need for nasty chemicals and easy to clean… phew!! I just hope it doesn’t break easily, it’ll be plastic that could break after some time I think.
Well it’s a big gawdy ugly piece of kit but it cleared the slow draining shower when a lesser plunger and about ten other pour down supposedly brilliant liquid drain cleaners failed. Problem is it’s too big to live under the sink and I have no storage so for now it’s stood in the shower looking like some sort of amazing sex toy, which it may well become if the shower stays unblocked.
wow
had a bathroom sink that the water would not go down, and all built in so unable to get to u bend but at 1am it was to the top so put every thing I could think of to wash it out but nothing! ordered this at 2am amd was with me by 4pm after using and doing 3 pludges it clear whatever was blocking it. other half was not impressed this morning when I said Ive ordered a plunger for 10 quid but after he saw it in action and the water now running out straight away even he was amazed something like this would work so quick! saved us getting a plumber out and having to have the whole lot taken apart to get to the pipes defo worth the money!
Worked really well and no chemicals required!
Bought this as the kitchen sink was draining slowly as was the bathroom sink and the bath (overhead shower). While I had sorted out the bath previously by getting old hair out (ugh ugh ugh) and now use a drain protector, I think various things like soap, conditioner and so on slow it down. I am reluctant to use the chemical drain cleaners because they all seem so vicious.
Several plunges later, all three drains work perfectly. I did notice the contents of the drains slightly blocking the outside drains so I know something had needed to be removed! Also be prepared for a temporary smell from the drains. It’s a good tip about blocking the overflow as well.
More expensive than normal but worth i
You get what you pay for, has a lot more suction powers usual plunger. Filled up slow moving basin with enough water to cover mouth of plunger 1/4 way up and gave it a few good rapid bursts and out came some gunk my kids has thrown down there, if your liquid sink blocker hasn’t worked there something usually metalic, hard plastic other tough material that hasn’t dissolved in the corrosive solution, give this a go and you might just get it out.. or push it through, mines came back up, don’t forget to block the overflow hole in basin for best results. Highly recommend.
It really is amazing!
I was a bit skeptical but thought it was worth a try as our shower has been blocked on and off for ages. It’s AMAZING! Couldn’t be simpler and with the first plunge you feel the suction and up came a clod of the offending crap and it’s been great ever since. I showed my husband who is a bit of a gadget nerd and he had a go in the other shower and declared it incredible! It isn’t a gimmick – it’s simple and brilliant.
Oh my goodness what can I say! Our downstairs sinks and drains have been blocked for over a week, we tried every chemical going and an ancient plunger to no avail. Have had to do washing up in toilet handbasin as the dishwasher backwashed into the blocked kitchen sink and sat there for hours, and when I tried to use my washing machine it filled the kitchen sink to overflowing with filthy water which I had to bail out into buckets!
Of course I tried to call a plumber but we all have Covid so no one will come out until we finish isolation. Anyway ordered Luigi yesterday, received today, and it effortlessly cleared the entire problem within three or four plunges!! Just make sure you have blocked up any overflow or adjacent sink if you have a second one, or water and gunk will shoot out there. Thoroughly recommend and probably saved myself hundreds of pounds on a plumbing firm.
Extremely Effective
I have had trouble with my shower being slow to drain for sometime. My previous plunger made some difference, but the shower soon became slow to drain again.
Having previously bought the Luigi toilet unblocker and found that to be extremely effective I thought I’d try their sink and shower plunger.
The shower tray had nearly filled right up today, but 3 or 4 pumps with the Luigi plunger completely cured the problem. Judging by what came back into the shower tray initially it unblocked stuff that had been clogging it up for years but that soon drained and the shower now drains perfectly.
I thoroughly recommend this product – and their toilet unblocker – so much cheaper than calling in a plumber!
Very useful tool
On the instruction tag attached to the plunger I was surprised to read that a ‘suction’ action was recommended rather than a ‘plunging’ action. I duly followed instructions and pressed down the plunger over the drain hole in a dry sink, then rapidly pulled up on the handle. The result was a large amount of ‘gunk’ was deposited into the basin which I was able to mop up and dispose of in the waste bin. I repeated this procedure several times. Result : very free flowing waste pipes and as an added bonus, the sluggish press down to close, press again to open drain plug suddenly has a new lease of life – works perfectly again.
Great product, gets the job done!
Ah the kitchen sink drain problem, the dreaded smelly slow drain which my wife claims she has nothing to do with, even though she keeps throwing all kinds of food rubbish there “accidentally”. The baking soda vinegar worked a little, I.e. improved the smell but didn’t help the drainage.
I saw this and bought this to have a go. Much cheaper than getting a plumber in. Plunged initially and all the water started coming out from the overflow with some smelly weird rubbish. It was horrible smelling stuff and blackish in colour. Anyway realised that while this is helpful, it is not doing the suction it needs to do. Once water coming out of the overflow became clear, I shoved in a cloth to completely block it and started plunging. After about 20-30 plunges, the water drains a lot better.
I repeat the process every 2-3 months and it keeps the drain going. I also repeat the baking soda vinegar thing at the same time. It still occasionally smells a bit but generally speaking, this works like a treat. Can highly recommend.
brilliant drain plunge
extremely good plunger 1 shot is usually enough , one of the best i have used
good price as well . i will recommend 5 stars to this plunge
Cracking bit of ki
Never thought that I would find myself writing a review on a sink plunger, but this one deserves a mention! I have spent many years fighting with sinks etc, trying to unblock them. I bought this, and was only half way towards the sink when it gave up the ghost and emptied. Well, maybe not, but the suction power is phenomenal! A couple of plunges and the job is done. I swear, at one point the Loch Ness monster popped it’s head out of the sink and said, ‘What happened there then?’ Well, once again, maybe not, but well worth the klebies. It’s efficient, it’s blue, and it looks like a piece from Cluedo. I call mine Mrs Peacock!
Get this before you waste money on a plumbe
Our kitchen sink was blocked, we tried all the sink unblocker liquids and also vineger and baking soda.. none of those worked so we ordered this on amazon and within 10 minutes it unblocked it, we had to give it a few goes but it worked. 9.99 much cheaper than a plumber, do try this first.
I swapped my shower tray 4 years ago with new pipe work and have been struggling recently with slow drainage and some blockages over the last few months or so. I have tried a rubber sink plunger, and enough chemicals that Saddam Hussain would be envious of and Tony Blair would be threating war over. Nothing seemed to work. After reading the reviews and thought that given the cost which is about the same as a small bottle of WMD / or unblocker, there was little to loose. As you can see I even left the label on as I was not expecting it to work.
I removed the drain top, hair trap and removable dip tube prior to using Luigi’s plunger. Filled the shower tray with clean water and stopped any water escaping by covering the hole with the plunger. I then allowed some water escape so that the plunger had something other than air to work with.
After only a few ups and down pumpings that even John Holmes and Ron Jeremy would be proud of, and causing enough suction to worry a Dyson Vac it has pulled the blockage back all the way through the trap, A huge clump of clean hair, not even damaged by chemical Ali !
WOW oh WOW. Why did I not save all the money wated on chemicals and buy this first off.
Highly recommended, it even reduces your chemical footprint.
It worked on my showe
Great, simple product that worked really well.
I have a shower tray that every couple of months starts to drain really slowly. Boiling water usually clears it, after which I go through the usual other options: bicarb, commercial drain unblocking liquid. Nothing worked.
I ordered this as a last option before calling a plumber.
It was so simple to use. Whatever was blocking my drain must have been fairly tough as it took a good dozen or more goes on ther plunger. After the first few plunges it did start to drain a bit better and started to throw up all sorts of detritus. The drain eventually just suddenly started draining away again. Fabulous.
Will use again in lieu of drain unblocking liquid, which is no doubt horrendous for the environment. It’s also not cheap. Now I’m sorted with this badboy. It also looks hilarious so that means it gets bonus points.
Awesome!
I had a sudden blockage from my shower drain a few days ago, with water backing up into my bath.
Not a nice experience & put it down to hair and soap scum causing it.
The blockage was along the waste pipe behind a tiled box section, and away from the trap etc.
So I, needed a quick solution.
I read reviews on best ways to tackle said issue, and this plunger was recommended by many.
I bought one, and tried it as soon as I got a chance, and within 3 plunges, the blockage was gone.
Simple, powerful and a usable bathroom again.
Very pleased.
If your sink is blocked, give this a go.
For 4 years bathroom sink was collecting dirt and hair and recently it started to get blocked. Tried chemicals at first with no luck, then tried soda with vinegar for 3 times, but this made things worse, as all debris from pipe walls loosened and blocked sink completely. Before calling plumber ordered this plunger as my last option. Cover overflow hole, 3 pumps with a bit of water in the sink and bam, block pushed away and water flowing nicely agai
Plumber told us to call a drainage company.
We tried Bicarbonate Soda, Vinegar, Mr Muscle, Domestic, Hot water, Hydrogen Peroxide, Standard plunger, Plumber who removed Ubend and advised us to call professional drainage company. Nothing worked. I watched a few videos on YouTube. And then arrived on amazon. I learnt 2e need to cover the overflow and then plunge. This did the job in 2 attempts. Around 20 plunges. We got absolutely soaked. But job done. Wish we never called the useless plumber now. More powerful than normal plunger. Thank you for making this and saving me hundreds of pounds.
Gobsmacking.
Before i ordered this plunger I looked at some reviews and wondered whether they were genuine. They were all so good! Now I know that they weren’t fake. I tried our existing plunger, a plastic sink snake and a metal snake with a grabber. None of which worked, and being opposed to chemicals, decided to try this. I could hardly believe it when after only about four plunges, the blockage cleared. I’m still amazed and can’t understand it.
Go on…..take the plunge! You won’t get a better plunger😁
I only received the Luigi’s Sink
& Drain Plunger this afternoon. Wow what a great plunger this is! Nothing like the old type of plungers which were always pretty hard going to use. There is no effort involved with the Luigi’s Sink & Drain Plunger, just place it over bath (or kitchen sink) plughole & push down once or maybe twice & hey presto the water is flowing down the plug hole so fast now. I really wish I’d bought this a long time ago as my bath was taking over 10mins to empty but now only a couple of minutes if that!
A little 'miracle' as far as I'm concerned!
At last… a solution to our slow draining and water logged bath!
We live in a hard water area and I have tried a whole shelf full of different products – all guaranteeing to clear blocked pipes – none of them have helped at all.
This little gizmo, however, has finally cleared the blockage in just a few minutes.
Although all plastic, it is a strong plunger and gets a decent suction built up.
After just a few plunges, there was a ‘whoosh’… and the water now drains away like a dream. It has also worked wonders on the shower.
It is such a simple design, but so effective.
Looks Flimsy but Quite Sturdy
I got this the day after I ordered, excellent!
Suction power is good, it made quick work of a particularly stubborn blocked bathroom sink. It looks cheap and flimsy but will hold up to rough handling. I broke my old rubber and wooden plunger with the same rough handling I used with this! If it breaks later down the line I’ll edit this review.
It’s easy to use, just push down fast a few times and it’ll clear a blocked sink. For a extremely stubborn blocked this may not work.
Very easy to clean, I just sprayed bleach on it then ran it under the hot tap – all done!
Must have in your house!
I have had using regular/normal plungers from the shops all my life, never thought they would make any big difference, afterall plungers are plungers all they do are to unblock the clogged sink. Boy was I wrong! After my plunger given up to my muscle strength, I surfed for one here and came across this with very high rating. It is a bit more expensive then the regular cheap one but after reading lots of reviews, I decided to give it a try.
It unclogged my sink within 5 mins which my normal plunger had not been able to till it passed away!
Highly recommended!
This thing is amazing, trust me when I say i
This is an amazing product!. I had standing water in both the tub and the shower cubicle. A plumber qouted 300, and said it may cost more.
As a man (dispite the common belief of women), we never guve up and bought this. Worked like magic. Shower cubicle was done in a minute…..
Now, some advice- if you have the tub and the sink close to each other, once you use this the blockage will move towards the sink and when the sink tap is open the water will come out from the tub. So, after a couple of minutes, do the sink and the blockage will be pushed further and further and eventually go out through the pipe. So, good luck to all of you.
This has to be the best 10 I have ever spent. After suffering a problem with my bathroom sink emptying for many months and trying to unblock it with bleach, cheap plungers, drain unblocker, wire thingy me bobs that go round the wastepipe and bendy coat hangers I bought this product. read the instructions on how to use it and used it for 5 minutes yesterday. Hey presto sink now totally unblocked. I would definitely recommend this product. 10 out of 10. Brynn Welch — Stafford — UK.
Master Blaste
Amazing performance!
Water used to drain from my kitchen sink very quickly but over time it became quite sluggish despite using various chemical sink unblockers, which made very little difference.
A few strong up/down pump actions (while blocking the overflow hole) blasted whatever it was that other things couldn’t reach and once again, water roars down the plughole like a thing possessed.
“Effective” is too small a word to describe it.
very powerful, sorted a heavily blocked bath tub drain for 1 year!
Product is very powerful really, unbelievable how quickly I sorted out a bath tub drain that I have used a few other unblocker chemicals, the stick to collect stuff especially hair, and also always used a strainer, cleaned afterwards but still could not prevent the continuous blockage which had become worst before this. Just pumping once or twice with this, it was working very well, never seen it before draining this well since I moved here more than 1 year ago.
The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is plastic quality seems quite thin, flimsy compared to the price being the most expensive. I believe in a few uses very quickly it may tear or wear out. Other than that, for my biggest drainage problem, it worked like a magic effortlessly.
I’ve given this 5 stars overall, for suction, and for ease of use. I would have given it another 5 if I understood exactly what’s meant by ‘sheerness’ in the context of toilet and bathroom plungers. If sheerness refers to the colour-scheme, then consider the stars awarded.
I love the colours – royal blue and fluorescent green mean I won’t mislay it in however dire an emergency. One employs it similarly to any other bathroom plunger, I would imagine, but the suction is spectacular. I have a granite slab in my kitchen on which I rest hot cooking pots. (I don’t know exactly how much it weighs, but I really REALLY wouldn’t want to drop it on my foot.) I tried out the plunger on the slab and found the plunger won by a knockout – it lifted the slab off the worktop easily! I immediately lowered it carefully and gently to avoid accident, but the impression had been made.
I think when I have to use this in earnest for the first time a fair degree of circumspection will be in order. I don’t want to blow the drain pipe off the bottom of the shower drain, after all, and this beast has the power!!!! Very well impressed!
Our bathtub had clogged up with hair and grime and was taking ages for the water to go down eventually getting fully blocked.. purchased this on prime so came next day (was worried might have to have a plumber out) after a few plunges of which this worked great due to the ridged design our problem was solved.. the water now goes down so fast.. great value a must have item for any house
Never Buy Unblocking Chemicals Again!
Over the years I have bought strong chemical drain unblockers when my bathroom sink got blocked. I had tried the bicarbonate of soda, vinegar and boiling water meathod with little impact before. The chemicals never really did the job either, no matter how strong they were and I’d always have to buy more. I felt very bad as I consider myself a person who cares about their enviromental impact.
I got this plunger as a last resort and it cleared the sink drain in about five plunges! Follow the advice on covering the overflow though – I didn’t get anything splashing out from it but I blocked it with a wad of toilet paper to help the vacuum. It was very satisfying to see immediate results!
I thought it might be too big as my sink’s plug hole is quite near the back of the sink and I wondered if there would be enough room for the plunger to make a seal but the plastic was flexible enough to make a seal on the curve.
I won’t be buying chemical drain unblockers again!!!
When my wife came running to me, stricken with terror that the shower wasn’t draining properly, as a 27-year-old red-blooded male with only a cursory knowledge of DIY. There was only one course of action.
Putting down my avocado on toast (the reason we still rent) I went straight to google and typed in “what do you do if your shower won’t drain” and it came up with plunge it.
I searched into Amazon and low and behold this accordion looking plunge came up and I bought it because it looked funny.
After a day it arrived and I gave it a few pumps in the shower (the plunger, not THAT)
Within seconds the clog was eliminated and peace restored.
10/10 plunger.
Amazing
DIY has never been one of my strong points, therefore I took to the laptop to watched YouTube videos. This would give me insight and guide me on the best tool for the job and how-to unblock my bathroom sink. The Luigi’s Sink and Drain Plunger was being demonstrated on a number of channels and was given rave reviews by all of them. When viewing the videos, I thought; If it works that well I have nothing to lose from purchasing one. The plunger arrived sooner than expected which was a blessing in disguise. It was so easy to use, easy to clean and small enough to leave in a bathroom or kitchen cupboard, as a result I started work on the sink immediately. My first impressions of the plunger did not disappoint, the suction was great, and it was easy to compress. It effectively removed the gunk and hair that had been trapped in my sink for weeks. Within minutes the plunger had done its job (making me look like a real professional while saving money at the same time). I had tried drain blockage solutions and gas pumps, but nothing worked until this plunger came on the scene. I highly recommend this product; it is of premium quality, inexpensive and great value for money, working effortlessly on my drain issue.
Very impressed
I needed a replacement plunger after our old one mysteriously disappeared (it’ll turn up somewhere, no doubt!) and our shower drain started to back up. I had intended to buy a straight replacement, i.e. a red suction cup job, but noticed this strange-looking Luigi’s one when I was browsing. Looking at the design I could see that the claims of ‘suction performance’ were very probably true. And that was confirmed on first use. This particular shower has a history of stubborn blockages, but with a few plunges it was unblocked. You can feel the device is more effective, more powerful as you’re using it. Very pleased with it.
The bes
Great plunger. Helped to sort out our slow draining bathroom basin.
Removed the drain pop-up.
Gave it ten or so pumps with this plunger, removing the dirt that it brought up each time.
Then poured 1/2 cup baking soda and 1/2 cup white vinegar down the drain.
Leave for 15 mins then rinse down with a kettle of boiling water. = sorted.
Basin now draining as good as new.
Went back an ordered the toilet version too. Better to have it ready and waiting for that dreaded day, rather than suffer!
Picture on listing has a line across the inside of the plunger base showing it as 5 inches across – the 5 inches is actually outside edge to outside edge. The useable area is 4 inches.
As the opening is only 4 inches – if you need it for anything bigger than 4 inches, I would order the larger size as this won’t make a seal on anything bigger than 4.
Perfect Plunge
My bath had been draining very slowly over a period of time. I decided before calling a plumber to try this Luigi’s Plunger and am so glad I did. Delivery was next day with Prime. It looked flimsy when unpacked and to be honest I thought I had wasted my money. Wrong and I am happy to admit it. I put a small amount of water into the bath to cover the drain and applied the plunger, on the first attempt, an amount of hair was forced out of the overflow. Removing that and sealing the overflow with a sponge, I again applied the plunger to the drain, within a minute, it was obvious that the pressure had dropped as the blockage had been removed. I am glad to say that my bath now drains like it was brand new again and no more standing with water around my ankles when showering. This plunger works and does its job. It wont change your life, but it will clear any blockages you have in your bath or shower tray.
Amazing!
Kitchen sink was suddenly blocked and Buster’s kitchen drain unblocker didn’t make any difference, neither did Lakeland”s Kitchen Blocks Away, so we decided to try a plunger since there weren’t any obvious chemical options left based on reviews.
In less than 23 hours from ordering, the sink is now unblocked!!!
Duck taped over the overflow opening, put a plug in the second sink, filled up the main (small) sink with water to cover the base. It took 2 plunges – press down and pull up quickly as it says on the label.
We didn’t need to disconnect and plug dishwasher inlet, which would have been a hassle.
To clean, we just had to rinse it off and shake it a bit because of the bellows.
Be Careful what you wish for.....
The boss told me to buy a plunger, as she was sick of the blocked drains in our sinks and bath. This arrived and straight away I knew it was powerful.
It literally pulled EVERYTHING out of the plug holes. You do need to cover the overflow bit of course, to make the airtight connection.
The boss nearly gagged as the smell was immense but, wow, clear drains and the water subsides from the bath as it’s meant to.
Buy this product if you need a plunger 🙂
Omg!!! Forget drain unblocking liquid! Use this bad boy!!
Omg!!! I put this to use the second it arrived and what can I say… I am over the moon!! I could have saved myself a whole heap of ‘s on sink unblocker liquids, vinegar, baking soda etc had I just spent the money on this beauty!! My drains were not massively blocked but flow was pretty slow and getting worse… A couple of pumps with this bad boy, I felt the grub push out, got a bad stench for a minute… Ran hot water and its clean!! Pumped again to make sure and it’s just clear pipes now! Haven’t tested how it compacts down to store but I don’t care!! Great item!!
All plungers are not equal
Very disappointed, I bought a well know and very expensive plug hole unblock liquid and added this item as additional at check out, just in case (after all, I’d been using a different plunger that was next to useless on my blocked drain) – I now wish I added it first. I did a quick try with this , ust to prove everything was clogged up, and it managed to pull a great clump of hair from the pipes and they drained again like new. Now I have bottles of unused unblock liquid because this product is so amazing and much, much cheaper. Silly me for thinking all plungers are the same – this one is amazing and plenty big enough to cover all plug holes in my house. It’s now part of my regular cleaning cycle.
If you have a simple block in a washbasin drain, like I did, this is perfect. I am almost 70 years old so not very strong, and I know nothing about plumbing. I ordered the plunger, it arrived next day. I unwrapped it, put it over the drain, stuffed the overflow with tissue, pumped down a few times, and heard the blockage clear. Plunger easily rinsed clean under the tap, no metal parts to rust, takes up very little space under the sink. The last drain blockage I had cost me 75 to call out a plumber who did essentially the same thing. If it doesn’t clear your blockage, you may still have to call someone out, but why not try this first and see if you can save some time and money?
A worthwhile purchase
After numerous attempts at trying to unblock my shower using home remedies and over the counter chemical ‘unblokers’ – which worked for a week or so, I decided to take a different approach. I found the Luigi’s small plunger online and thought I’d give it a go. Well, I have to say I am very impressed! Fantastic suction and after a few ‘plunges’ – and pumping out some not so pleasant gunge, that had clearly been blocking the shower, the water has never flowed so freely down the plug hole! The plunger is definitely a worthwhile purchase, you can use it on any plug hole, no need to spend a fortune anymore on chemical products. In a nutshell, am I happy with my purchase, YES. Would I recommend the plunger, most definitely.
I have to say I was very sceptical about this. We had a very slow draining shower with 3 inches of standing water when in use and had tried all the usual chemicals and drain unblockers without success. Decided to give this a go. It looked so simple when it arrived and without a rubber ‘seal’ around the bottom to give it some grip I thought it wouldn’t work. How wrong was I!
After 3 or 4 pumps just to see how to use it, the water just drained away. The shower now doesn’t fill up like it used to.
We have also just had a really bad blocked toilet. Again, the usual ‘instant unblockers’ failed to work, industrial strength chemicals, boiling water, dishwasher tabs etc. Completely forgot about this. Despite it not being able to get a tight seal because of the shape and size of the toilet pan, it cleared it straight away after 4 pumps.
I am astonished how something so simple does such an amazing job with instant results. Better still, no nasty chemicals or waiting around. It is one piece and very easy to clean under the tap. A must for every household!
I wasnt confident about this working; I’d already tried a lot of chemicals and pulling hair up through the shower drain without success or any improvement. I’m also clueless regarding plumbing issues.
When it arrived my boyfriend said there was no rubber and didnt think it would work. I said there were tonnes of good reviews! And after plunging for less than a minute we tried it and it worked like a charm. I’m not dreading the next drain block now! Thanks!
Great piece of ki
My wife tried everything else, all the products to Shes the blockage but nothing worked, bought this product as the reviews were good. Took a couple of minutes to work the best technique out and within 3 minutes both my sinks were unblocked and running perfectly. There was a little bit of old hardened dirt that came out of the overflow and took the steps to cover it up from other reviews, it’s weird as it doesn’t feel like your doing much, but then it’s cleared the blockage Would totally recommend
First thing I noticed was the packaging saying it’s for toilets, not sinks, despite the description. However, as I needed it for a bath, that didn’t bother me. I found this has far better suction power than a traditional plunger. The handle isn’t bad but not so comfortable if having to push down from above instead of using two hands as in the illustrations.
Why only four stars? After a half hour or more of elbow grease, the join in the plastic (it’s made of two halves) split slightly at the top, meaning dirty water starts squirting up in your face, and the vacuum effect is a bit weaker.
My kitchen sink tends to get easily blocked due to the washing machine being connected to this drain and the thin piping system of my house. I had occasionally unwound and deep cleaned the pipes and have been trying all types of chemicals, but it was a matter of weeks before I had a blockage again.
Not anymore! With this plunger it took me seconds to fully unblock the system. After a couple of uses it seems like the whole pipe system is healthier now as it hasn’t gotten blocked again for more than a year. Just make sure you use it in a flooded sink and with all air holes blocked, otherwise there will be no effect.
A powerful plunge
There’s nothing to dislike about this plunger. Saved me getting a plumber in to unblock the bathroom sink. Tried a couple of good brand solution sink unblockers with no success. Directions said if this fails call a plumber. Ordered this plunger on next day delivery and unblocked the sink within a couple of plunges. Did the bath and the kitchen sink where it brought up my grand daughter’s paintbrush and part of a bird feeder. Absolutely brilliant.
Instantly effective
Kitchen sink is “a bowl and a half” I have learnt. The bowl had been emptying more and more slowly
over the last few weeks. I emptied the unit underneath and took apart and cleaned the first u-bend.
Slight dirt and muck but not enough to stop sink emptying. Sent for the plunger ( I was in the middle
of another job when it arrived but I thought it would only take a couple of minutes to see what it could do)
I pushed it down and pulled it up 3 times in quick succession and could really feel it had power. I then found
the floor soaking wet and found the suction was so strong it had pulled the inner cover from the “half bowl”
waste pipe. Only took an hour to get everything out of the unit, dry, clean and replace.
So, yes it works : yes, its strong – be careful.
I had an issue with my shower, ie. the water was not draining, I tried the liquid to un block it but to no avail. This was causing a huge problem.
I was going to just buy a plunger, a regular 1, until I searched on Amazon and saw this plunger, read the reviews and thought I would buy it, and WOW the HUGE PROBLEM is no more I am so pleased I bought it and didn’t have to get a plumber.
Highly recommend
Cleared my shower ok
My shower starts to slow drain due to hair and (mostly) a build up of shampoo and conditioner. I’ve been using a certain MM product but it’s expensive and, more importantly, not great for the environment.
I’ve only tried this plunger once, but it did the trick. Initially I had the plunger tight to the shower tray and moved the handle up and down. Then realised it works better if you lift it up, let air go into it, then plunge it down – thereby forcing air and water in with more force.
This method of releasing contact and jabbing it up and down soon made some black slime pop up and quickly cleared the blockage. Can’t argue with that.
Great product!
Shaving gel and hair clog our sink on a regular basis. I use baking soda and vinegar but the result is only temporary, so I end up using strong bleach based solutions. They do they job but they are not cheap at 3-4 per bottle, they are dangerous for the environment and the blockage comes back anyway…
I was looking for an alternative and decided to buy a plunger instead. Having tried a traditional one in the past at my mum’s, I opted for what seemed like an update. I am glad I did. I blocked the sink overflow as instructed and pumped a couple of time. Blockage gone, no chemicals used and it was easy to rinse and have ready to use again.
I had spent a couple of hundred quid, as I had to get the drain snaked for it to work, a regular plunger did nothing. And the drain specialist was tired of getting called out, so it was getting pretty bad.
I could not believe how easily and fully this plunger unclogged the kitchen sink.
You have to put something over the overflow outlet, like a cloth or ball of kitchen roll. This helps suction, else there is just dirty water and gunk spitting out.
Once I did that it only took about 2 pumps and my long battle with the sink was over.
The plunger draws up the water and blockages and really stirs the s*#& to get it unblocked. The process was really very easy.
Highly recommend it.
I’d tried bleach and bicarbonate with vinegar to try to clear a blocked loo which hadn’t worked when I saw this plunger for sale and
after reading the positive reviews thought it was worth a go. It took several plunges and using hot water but eventually the loo emptied after flushing. It is still not clearing quickly after each flush but I think this is partly due to the design of the toilet and the low flow flush not have it enough ‘oomph’ to clear things. It is certainly vastly better and the loo is usable again. I shall continue to use the plunger every couple of days in the hope the blockage will eventually completely clear. Certainly worth the money spent.
I’ve been having so many issues with my shower. It always floods and when I use a drain cleaners it would resolve the issue for about 2 weeks and start to flood again.
I thought I’d give this a go and with the first attempt of using it, it cleared the blockage fully! 2 months on and STILL NO FLOODING!!!
It’s so easy to use, just cover the drain and push down a few times and it blasts everything clear.
Amazing product for the price
For a week we tried white vinegar and bicarbonate soda to unblock a very clogged bath (took minutes to drain away). Literally had this plunger turn up with next day delivery, 2 pumps and the bath was fully unplugged. So impressed I went round all the drainage points in the house and carried on pumping away like a mad man. The design is ingenious and literally takes no effort unlike the old styled plungers. So impressed I have told many people at work about this product and all for 7.99. No chemicals, no tears. Just pump and the clog is gone.
Very interested in what other products these people sell as the build quality is solid and very well finished. This is literally the best most exciting thing I have bought in months for under a tenner. I literally await for reports of a clogging in our home so I can use this bad boy again.
This is a must. i swore by my German handheld professional pump action plunger, but when the water is really greasy and you are pulling it up or it moves up the tube, it is hard to get it clean. This is perfect and cleared my sink in 30 seconds. Easy to use as you can use your other hand to cover up and keep covered the overflow, which is hard to do with the tubular pump.
Got an email from Steve Stratton the inventor
Sorry Steve but didn’t buy it to unblock anything. My father had one when I was visiting him. There was a blockage in his toilet and I used his, after a couple of pumps the blockage was gone.
What a great bit of kit so I bought one in case of similar incidents in my home.
Highly recommend you buy one.
I’ve had a slow draining bathroom sink for a few months now and have tried various chemicals/plungers without any success at all, until now… Wow this little gem is absolutely fantastic! It cleared the blockage within minutes and arrived the very next day after ordering… thank you so much!
Bought to unclog my Bathroom Sink and Bath. They say that sometimes Less is more, and that applies to this product without question. A very simple design, with a simple upgrade to a standard plunger. The concertina effect on the head of the plunger gives it a little more power as it forces air into the pipe. This was notable on the sink, as I actually heard a ‘pop’when the plunger finally pushed the blockage through. At the end of the day it’s a plunger and nothing more, but the design improvement certainly works. No complaints from me.
I had a blocked shower and had tried everything – normal plunger for ages, caustic soda solution, drain unblockers. All to no avail. Last ditch attempt before calling a plumber was this. It took about 15 mins and eventually used it hydraulically – let the bellows fill with water (sucked it up from the full shower tray) then forced the water quickly down the plughole. Repeated for a while – the handle isn’t that good as it was difficult to get it directly vertical and the plunger kept slipping to the side. Eventually I filled the bellows with water as above then cupped my hands round the top and used my wieght to quickly compress the water down the plughole. A few attempts like this (10 or 15 probably) and the blockage moved and all is now flowing clearly. For about 10 what is there to lose!
We have for a long time suffered from blockages and slow flow in the drains in our house for 2 years – inherited problems from previous residents – we have tried numerous types of drain clearing solutions, only to find results slightly improved at best, and very temporary. After 5 or 10 minutes of using this product, the problem is fixed. The bellows on this, being so large, generated a lot of suction- in our shower upstairs it was able to suck out a massive hair ball type clog – we had tried chemicals and smaller plungers to no avail – we must have spent in excess of 30 on chemicals alone for the six drains in our house, to get variable and temporary results. After 10 minutes this device more than paid for itself, it achieved what no amount of chemicals and standard plungers could – fantastic results. The only negative is the thread which connects the bellows to the handle could be better as it kept unscrewing – perhaps a rubber washer or a modification to the thread (a catch/latch) may reduce the potential for this happening- doesn’t happen often but is a bit annoying. Overall, impressive device, would definitely recommend.
I was concerned, based on the mixed reviews, that it wouldnt work , but needed something that could be delivered quickly to unblock a sink . Surprised at how effective it was. Not sure it would work for major blockages but for a sink that has only recently started to drain slowly it was great. 2 or 3 quick pumps with the plunger & the water was draining quickly again. Job done (I did do a bit of googling to find out best way to use a plunger beforehand – use a damp cloth to plug up the overflow before placing the plunger over the plughole & then fill the sink with a shallow bit of water before actually starting to plunge).
Was surprised how easy it was to use. Men have upper body strength and can deal with most things, but for we women, it is helpful to have a product that does a good job with ease.
The bathroom sink and the shower room basin were both slow draining and I’d used a drain unblocker product but it made no difference. I was going to ring for a plumber but decided to have one last go myself and buy a plunger. Chose this one because of comments and it worked! Horrible gunge has been removed and everything running away beautifully. Cheaper than a plumber!
Tried so many other plumbers and various liquid unblockers including caustic soda. Nothing worked. This plunger is the best I have ever purchased. My bathroom sink took a good few minutes to seep away….now it goes within seconds thank you so much.
