Compared to other options, this one is only 25 feet long, but it was enough to clear a slow shower drain. I didn't use the drill on the drain because I was concerned it might be too strong for this old house and damage the pipe. I tested it out the drain at low speed just to get an idea of how it works. My cordless screwdriver fits perfectly on it. I didn't have a strong drill, but I could twist the snake. I don't think it's necessary to drive at very high speeds anyway. I also tried rotating it manually and it was ok. He was able to pull out the hairball that was clogging the drain, so using this tool was successful. Came with bag and gloves. The pouch is very useful because I didn't want anyone to accidentally scratch the metal tip.
