I've install hundreds of the cheap systems and never had any of the issues you describe. In fact, my kitchen has had the cheepo for 32 years without issue.
As many others have commented, I disagree. Much simpler, easier and future foolproof if you just run a straight line out of the wall and glue on a screw thread onto the end. Then use the cheap thin plastic P traps. My cheap thin plastic P traps never leak. I've had to cutoff the glued on P traps when remodeling bathrooms. Luckily had enough pipe showing out of the wall to glue on more pipe and add the thread on end piece.
I have the super cheap p-traps installed on two sinks with no problem. I'm starting to think it's user error causing your problems. I am more than capable of installing the way you describe with Sch 40, but there is no need.
Would this be ok on a bathroom sink / drain? The tailpiece for the sink is 1 1/4, but the waste pipe is 1 1/2 so it should just glue right up. Also, what do they call the piece that connects to the sink tailpiece with the thread and nut? Thanks! Great video
The metal jpipe under my kitchen sink doesn't leak...it has eroded into a big hole. Yikes. Can I use a plastic and/or pvc when reparing and replacing this piece with the metal pipe remaining? Thanks
Don’t listen to this guy…. Use the smaller one but they sell two types…. One for $5 and one for $15 … buy the one for $15 that comes with red gaskets on all connections … works great and easy to use
I installed conventional p traps. Easy to adjust. No leaks. 3 sinks. Installed 25 years ago.

If you have installed 100s of these it is likely over and over on the same sink. 😂

Dude yes
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING!!!! I have had crazy issues with the first one. I will replace all with the heavier PVC

Thanks for this idea! I couldn’t seem to get my crappy ptrap to not leak, so built one out of abs as you recommend and seems to be watertight.
You're welcome!

Ive installed plenty of those cheap p traps. Never leaked on me, not sure why he doesnt like them
@@urjnlegendalso makes it much easier to run a snake down the drain as you can remove the trap arm.
@denniscordova9920 i was thinking flushing may be easier this way too, didnt think about a snake

The cheap bathroom style piping in 1 1/2 flared on the ends but is not a true 1 1/2 inch throughout.
I had a problem with these thicker p traps in my kitchen with a bit of an odor. By going to the smaller p traps it was fixed.
I never thought of this. Thanks!!!

I use pro dope on the threads an I never have any problems.

Home Improvement store=Home Depot
yeah I am not advertising for any store. IF they want that, they will have to contact me
Dude wtf you talking about they have been working for 20 years
Way longer than that. 100s of years old.
The stuff build 20 years ago is much better quality than the stuff built today, but even the stuff built today works fine if you install it right.
