Quick Dam Flood Barrier Pack Review

I have purchased this product or something very similar in the past and was pleased that the product absorbs water and effectively stops the waterway from entering my garage. Unfortunately the 2.5ft high barriers I just received didn't work. The seams must have been full of holes or they weren't strong enough to hold the contents inside. When it rained, ice appeared to form on both barriers. When I touched the "ice cream" it was like gelatin. Also, the barriers did not absorb as much water as…

I cannot give this product enough stars! I live in Darlington, South Carolina where we just survived Hurricane Florence. Luckily we dodged a direct hit, but not the RAIN! We closed our porch in a sunken cave years ago, and we've never seen rain like it did that day. My son-in-law dug the ditch and I've already dumped a few sandbags. I put up flood barriers at my door and just prayed. Judging by the photo, the water was ankle deep! I also took a picture from my hide and one after the water…

Update August 2020: I am currently using the second segment. I love this product. Completely finished asking what is promised. I am so grateful for this as it has protected my home from a lot of water damage. 2018: I ordered this water barrier due to the threat of Hurricane Florence this weekend. It arrived in 48 hours, just in time for a big storm (not Florence related)! I placed a 5 foot segment behind the tailgate. The rainwater was already rising. The barrier immediately began to absorb! I…

Only for shallow water! I was very disappointed with this product. Flood water rose outside my patio door and I was hoping to stack them to keep the water from flowing. The first one worked fine, then I tried to put the second one on top. It didn't balance well but I had to block the slowly rising water. I added a third one which fell off and swam away as did the first two as the water rose. I understand the water was too high for the product but I was disappointed that when folded they didn't…

The barrier is 6 inches wide and 5 feet long, expanding to 3.5 inches in height when activated. It will NOT increase to 6 inches once activated! Amazing product that works for draining water (see overview video), although I wouldn't recommend using it if you have torrential flooding (water flowing at a…

I bought this as a 'backup plan' for my back patio door which turned out to be very low and low to the ground. The rain goes away fairly quickly but we've had a lot of rain this month and the gullies are overflowing. With hurricane season in mind I figured I should have SOMETHING in case the rain doesn't stop for a while. A few days after I got it, we got one of those downpours where the sky literally starts dropping BUCKETS. The water drains so quickly that there is no time to drain. I saw…
