I need to clear a sluggish drain from the sink in the bathroom and want to know which of the commercial products are safest to use to not damage the pipes. Our hoe was built in 2006.

Bathroom sink drains suffer mostly from hair. Plunging usually won't work due to the shape of the bowl and the over flow vent. Removing the stopped and using a small snake or a zip-it does the trick. Cobra Products 00412BL Zip-It Drain Cleaning Tool - Drain Augers - Amazon.com (http://www.amazon.com/Cobra-Products-00412BL-Zip-It-Cleaning/dp/B000BO9204/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1406329653&sr=8-1&keywords=zip-it+drain+tool)

I agree! As a repair plumber I have never recommended using harsh chemicals. In your drainage system. Besides they only seem to work in TV commercials and when you try to remove the water you could burn your hands or damage your eyes. Snaking the drain is the best way to clear a clog. Good luck. Tom

I would try the Zip-It Drain Cleaning Tool if that will not work, remove the trap under the sink see if you have hair in it clean and install, if no hair then try the snake as Tom says, good luck.
