I hadn’t too much faith on it but it worked! I tapped, tapped, tapped, tapped,… and finally it went out. Thank u so much

I'm so happy that helped! It's a technique that should be spread far and wide!

Dude thank you so much! All the videos I was finding had complicated fixes or using dental floss but my was stuck so far down there was no way the dental floss could have helped. And as a renter I don’t want to mess with piping and be responsible for potential damages. Your solution was by far the easiest and quickest. My sink can finally drain thank you so much

OMG this worked like a charm! Light tapping with the soft grip of a hammer. None of the other KZread video suggestions worked for me. Thank you for saving me from having to pay for a plumber to fix this!

Thank you! So glad I tried this simple approach first before dismantling the drain pipes below…

THANK YOU! This is the only thing that worked for me because my U-pipe / trap cannot be removed without removing my cabinet.

Thank you, Just did it and it worked. Cleaned up the corroded brass, loosened it up and with a bit of grease will put it back.

Can’t believe this worked for me but it did! Thank you so much!

We called him and he directed us to this video! A very genuine and helpful person thanks!

Thank you so much! I just tried 5 minutes ago and it worked. I thought that pushing it from down was gonna work but it didn't, the sink stopper was really stuck. I even tried with sunflower oil jajaja. Now I don't have to call my dad :D. THANK YOU from Chile!

Absolutely brilliant tip. Wouldn’t ever have considered this and don’t understand how it worked but a light few taps with a plastic end of a knife and job done.

Thank you so much. I tried many tutorials, only this one worked.

Thanks a million times, mine was stuck but I used a square hook crotchet carres to remove and removed. God bless 🙏

Worked for me with a screwdriver handle. Thanks very much!

Tapping it plus moving the lever up and down fixed my problem! Thank you! 🙂 Also, the hole near the bottom of my drain plug was never threaded like it should've properly been done upon installation. But after me trying for 20-30 mins to fix that problem, I ended up not threading it because no matter how I adjusted the plug's height, the plug wasn't high enough to allow for timely water drainage. So, now I see why this wasn't done ten years ago when I bought this home!

@@ThePunggolHandyMan And I just re-fixed the same drain using the combo of the video's technique and my aforementioned of moving the lever up and down! But THIS time, I added the step of cleaning the gunk off of the stopper (I'll probably run it through the dish washer) AND where the stopper makes contact around the edge of the drain. Hopefully my additional step will make the overall fix last longer.

This works!! Thank you

YOU HAVE SAVED MY LIFE! Five days ago I did something really stupid. I pushed the sink stopper down with too much force and it has been jammed shut since. I tried putting dish soap on it and sticking a knife blade around the edge with NO luck. I decided to try looking online and I watched your video. I used the end of a screwdriver handle. My first taps were to soft and did nothing, so I tapped it harder very rapidly and up it popped! You are a GENIUS!!!

You can throw the whole assembly into hot 1:1 vinegar to decalcify. If there's no gasket, boiling it should remove the debris. WD40 is not meant for this, grease, preferably teflon grease is preferred. If it works, it should be bring back a few months or years of life.

Thanks!

What if it's stuck slightly deeper ?😅
