Good product for the money.

Looks good, feels durable. The time will show. The only thing that could be improved is the instructions, I'm fairly new to life on wheels but it's very handy so it wasn't hard for me to figure out how to install it. The only thing is, 4 pictures on the side of the box doesn't seem like enough for a layman to install on their own. I didn't even use them because they really suck. I just managed to drop the mic It was easy, just saying for people who need a bit more detail.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Camco acknowledges the problem.

I had to replace 3 air vents on my motor home. I order 2 packs of another brand and 1 Camco from Revain. The Camco came with the center riser bracket riveted back, useless. He doesn't fit. I called the Camco number on the box and spoke to tech support. The man admitted that he had problems with mileage. But then I said to contact Revain for warranty issues. Wrong answer in my book. He could request an image and quickly replace it. But no, he should give me trouble. Another product was bought at

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Some imperfections

Seems thicker and better than Ventline

Seems thicker and hopefully more durable than the original Ventline which became brittle in the New Mexico sun. They fit and function like the originals. Make sure your loop matches the images in the ad. for the right model. Installation instructions on the box. Installation requires loosening two screws from the lift mechanism, removing the cover and removing the cover from the top/outside of the RV. The lid hinge may have a spring steel clip holding it to the base. Remove the clip before…

For those with 5 loops that have vent loops instead of a long tube

I was looking for a replacement bathroom vent cover for our camper. Our old one is broken. We have 5 separate grommets on our camper that this needed to be connected to and our hole was exactly 12 inches. connection / work. It took less than 10 minutes from start to finish using Philips hand screwdriver as a 1 person job. .again, if you have 5 ledges on the roof of your RV, long short long short long where the old vent is hooked then this is the right choice for you. C-shaped metal tube where…

  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Reliability

Suitable for all new Jesen Vents models.

First, it's not 14" x 14". The outer dimensions of this cover cap are 13" x 13". This is for your information only. There is only one Jensen bathroom vent in one size, so you don't have to worry about size. What you have to worry about is the hinge system. There are two Jensen hinge systems. If your motorhome is newer than 2004 then you have a new hinge system. If it's older than 2004, you have an old system (unless the entire unit has been replaced with a newer one). For new RV owners, this…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Clarity

It came fast! Ease of installation.

I couldn't believe it when the first original vent cover on my 2017 motorhome broke in the wind! (Forest River cuts so many corners!) After doing some research, I ordered this replacement and after seeing on YouTube how easy it was to remove the old cover and put the new one on, I made mine in no time. It was so easy that after looking at the other two caps I bought two more and replaced them. And I even installed MaxAir II covers in all three positions (cabin, bed, bathroom) three years ago…

  • Quality construction

Very important. Easy installation. PHOTOS HELPS CONFIRM COMPLIANCE.

Excellent replacement cover. I liked the smoky one more than the original opaque one. Although it looks dark, it lets in some light. Some here say the plastic is flimsy. Yes, it is thinner than our OEM cap. But it seems like it's going to be a long time. The hinge is a simple curved metal. To remove, bend the curved part at the end of the hinge and slide the cover in the opposite direction. The installation is the same idea; Once you have it in place, simply bend the small end piece into a…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Updates

Slit Loop is the perfect replacement for a looser fit. I can pinch it at the ends so it doesn't rattle when opening. The same chimney cap has the same design as the white ones that were replaced. White ones only last maybe 2 years and once they start cracking it's just a matter of time and wind before they crack completely. And I haven't been on the road in a year. Just sat there. Cordless screwdriver is a plus. The exchange takes a few minutes to check and learn first. Start from within…

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • Hard to tell
