YES, IT ACTUALLY WORKS - What makes this different to a traditional plunger is that you are pushing water at the blockage, not just air. The benefit of this is that you don't need to form a seal. So it'll work on all different types of toilet - included low flow, square bottom and any other fancy toilet you might have. IT'S DESIGNED FOR TOILETS, NOT SINKS - The most important aspect of a regular plunger is the fit to the basin. This weird plunger has a narrow end that you point down into the basin before you start pumping, so you the seal doesn't matter for for 100% effectivness. EASY TO CLEAN AND STORE - When you've finished your dirty work, add a little bleach to your toilet, then plunge the clean water for a few seconds. The force of the plunger is enough to clear any residue. To store, just remove the handle and it will fit in any small cupboard. HEAVY DUTY: This plunger has a much greater force (8x) than any cup plunger ever produced. Check the feedback out for yourself, it's cleared childrens toys, wet wipes, 'man made' blockages and much, much more.
