I've had fair luck with the ridgid model you can optionally attach to a
drill, though because of my house layout I need a longer one for many of
the drains, which sucks because
they seem to charge like a wounded bull for anything longer - its
unfortunate you can't seem to find those old hand cranked 50' snakes
with the drum, etc. anymore :-/
Good Luck with your choice,
