How to remove a stuck drain king from a drain pipe in laundry room

You got me there! What is a "drain king"?

Drain Kings are awesome! It is a drain-opener that forces the clog out (down the pipe) with water pressure.

My only thought is that it is getting caught on the hose connection while trying to pull it out. (Assuming there is no water pressure still in it--otherwise remove the hose from the other end and let the water pressure off of it. Another thought I had was to pulse the water pressure (to cause the bladder to expand and contract) while pulling on the hose, which might cause it to move enough to free itself up.

I'm sure there are situations that would be made WORSE with its use, but for a lot of cases it is an easy remedy.

FYI, I have no interest in DK other than being a satisfied user.

Good luck,

Probably a little late here, but a stuck drain king can be hard to get out, for sure! Try reinflating and deflating again... pushing in and pulling out repeatedly. You should also try spinning the hose around and around... may get the male end of the hose to spin and get unstuck.

Poke it with a long, sharp, pointy stick to pierce it. Sides and bottom. Water should slowly drain out. Once empty, and deflated, it should be relatively easy to pull out

Hope that helps
