I've used mine for years, dozens of times/year.  The reason is my home sewer cleanout is slightly uphill from the driveway.  Dump at home, works great, I use a 3/4" water hose dedicated to the flowjet.  Several neighbors have them and like them as well.
If your cleanout is downhill then the slinky may be a better choice.
As for the floject "sticking" problem. As others have mentioned there is a large screwdriver slot on the bottom. Before using mine I just give it a turn with a screwdriver and haven't had any issues. Worse case you will pop the 20A fuse and need to replace the fuse and give the slot a turn.
