Sweet! It comes with a Milwaukee flavored bucket!

Now if that thing had a 4" cutter head on the end I'd be all in. It looks pretty dinky.

This is darn near what I was just needing. I was just fighting the...******... old snake we've had forever and thinking about buying a powered one. I like it!

That's the same as a $15 one that you can put to a drill chuck. In my opinion 25' may not be enough. So I would think $219 is too steep. I think $129 or $99 would be a more reasonable price. Or just pay more for the HF full unit.

I feel like this thing is overpriced at $219. Especially for a homeowner. I'm a plumber and there aren't too many situations where a thin 25' cable is going to get the job done. I clean a lot of kitchen drains and will sometimes start out with a smaller 35' machine. About half the time it won't reach and clear the stoppage. I then have to put it away and pull out a bigger machine. Time consuming and frustrating. That being said, if it comes down closer to $100 over time like I think it will, I'll buy it. I've got it bad for team red lol.

I guess it's cool for the few people that can use it.. I dunno. I just think there are better things that could have been made that have some broader appeal.. An m12 stapler or pin nailer for instance..

Maybe they can make one for m18 that goes 50 ft with a thicker cable.
