Review on 🐾 Ideal Pet Products Ruff Weather Pet Door Replacement Flap by Aaron Rosengren

They are a little (much) fragile. I keep having to buy them because the top holes that hold them in place stretch and then the valve doesn't stay straight and the bottom where the magnets are wears out. Then the shutters do not close completely. For the cost of replacing the leaves, you can buy a completely new door. Jump ahead a few years. So, I'm back here to buy flaps. They are too fragile and expensive to replace. I confess my door faces west and my dog WALLS through the door sometimes. However, this time I went to Walmart.com and bought a brand new door for only a few dollars more than 2 replacement doors + free shipping. The size is the same. Dear Ideal! Please upgrade the top brackets by reinforcing the holes. This is a good case of planned obsolescence. This loyal customer wants to switch dog door manufacturers because she doesn't like the quick turnaround time for replacement doors. Bad deal. Grrrrrrr The ideal doesn't seem to care, because the price hasn't come down and the valve hasn't gotten any more elastic.
