Happy it helped!

I had the thought to use a magnet before I saw this. The magnet on my tape measure gave me some encouragement. I got a 65 pound pull magnet and it took a few tries but it worked. You might need to turn the magnet or shimmy a bit back and forth to break the seal instead of just attaching and pulling straight up. The gunk on the underside made quite a strong seal but the magnet and I won in the end. I still need to do some plumbing work on the underside of the sink to get the stopper to catch again, but that is a project for another day

omfg this worked. I feel like an idiot now. nothing else worked but this.

Thank you SOOO much for this tip... It saved me a lot of money..😊

Thank you so very much! That’s a life saver!

Since everything is made so cheap now and that stopper is made out of plastic, you could have a magnet the size of whatever you want it's not going to help you. Use your smallest flat head screwdriver and put a little piece of tape on the flat blade so it won't scratch and you should be able to pry that out.

I used a thumbtack held it super tight and pried from the edge and it pulled right out 😂

Really works, tried it!! Thank you!

Can also use a rubber suction cup to suck and lift the stopper

Also here to say this worked for me. My magnet was not strong enough so I had to use both sides to repel each other. Sounds crazy but it got settled in front of my own eyes like ✨ MAGIC ✨

The little suction cup arrows work if you dont have a magnet

😅😊 Thank you so much. I have been trying to remove the stopper for 2 days. Used a "B&O" railroad magnet 🧲 and the stopper came out immediately! Thanks

That was my first thought. So I bought a magnet. But it appears that the stopper is not magnetic. Not sure if anyone has any other ideas.

Where do you get this big magnet from ?

It’s a screwdriver with the end removed. amzn.to/3QN1LSm any magnetic should work though.

You can also use some strong tape (masking tape for example). Cut enough length that you have tape either side to pull with. Stick it to the top of the stopper, pull up and out.

What if you don't have a magnet and guests are coming over 😢

Normally this happens because the rod that holds the pop up rusts out. If you go under the sink you should see some kind of rod sticking out close to the bottom of the sink.

I just use a utility knife 🤷‍♂️ works every time

😮

What about if its stuck real hard

@handylandlord

Try reaching under the sink to see if u can pull down on the lever to push it up. Possible it’s still attached to pop up rod.

Dint work for me , the magnet is not attracting it

Must have all plastic. May need to slide something small in between to lift.
