WHY DID NOT YOU DO THIS 50 YEARS AGO? MADE MY LIFE EASIER.

This is the BEST INVENTION I have ever seen! Easy to install, MAGNETIC CONNECTION, PERFECT FIT! No Stretched Hose My husband and I have struggled with dryer hoses for 50 years. And I mean the hose struggled in a small spot, sometimes you had to climb over the dryer or washing machine. I'm 69, my husband is 73. It's not easy. With this product you simply mount 1 part on the outside wall, mount the 2nd part on the back of the dryer and slide the dryer back against the wall. wow la The tubing is…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Tradeable

Possibly the best, simplest and most economical device I know. This took me from an awful metal pipe dry kite behind the dryer to an almost flat look with no loops or annoying extra pipes. Installation took 30 minutes and required a drill, metal snips and a screwdriver. He easily eliminated the discrepancy between the height of the dryer outlet and the wall mount by about a centimeter. Reinstalling the magnet and adjusting the flexible hose was enough to get everything right. Now my dryer works

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Expensive

Great product/customer service

I'm usually pretty critical in my reviews unless I like something. But I really like this product and I had a great experience with the company's service. The product is a great idea but I have to say it would be a good idea to go to their website and look at the different options available before making your purchase. I originally ordered an option that didn't quite work with my dryer. I couldn't get the dryer close enough to the wall to reach the included air duct. If I had visited their…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Probably the coolest invention I've ever seen (when it comes to dryers)

My dryer is double the size (regular dryer below and a sweater closet above) and has always been very difficult to dry on an external one Connect ventilation opening. There were only two connection options: either use a 3ft hose (which kinked when the dryer was pushed back) or use a short length of rigid pipe and line the dryer up perfectly with the outlet as you slide it in. Due to its height, you couldn't look down to properly level it, so the washing machine had to be pulled out to properly…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Not bad

Rework needed for Vents

Wall anchors don't hold up well. The heads of the screws are too high and hit the wall with the back of the magnet when they snap into place. The wall-side flange is no longer flat when engaged, providing clearance between mating parts. The magnet is pretty strong and has a decent ability to hold together. There is very little room to maneuver between the dryer and the wall chimney. This is my second purchase and I was hoping the product would improve. Unfortunately, it's still in short supply,

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Periodicity

Not suitable for some ventilation ducts

My house is built on a slab (I hate it!) but it had enough space that I needed at the time of purchase. But this is another story. The reason I'm pointing this out is to let you know that I can't replace the tumble dryer vent tube since it's buried in a concrete slab. I'm assuming it's a 4 inch PVC pipe. But it has to be thick. The short tube on the back of the magnet ring will not slip inside or outside the PVC tube coming out of the wall. , Point. So after much shaking and a few scoldings I…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!

Great concept, minimal design execution

While accessing the dryer vent in my laundry room isn't particularly difficult, MagVent looked like an elegant way to add a 4-foot flexible dryer vent, which had nasty "hairpins" and limited vacuuming behind the washer and dryer. The design concept of the MagVent 180 is great; However, his performance could have been much better. Good qualities: 1. The materials are generally of good quality, the magnets are strong.2. Packaging and instructions are well done. Not very good: 1. The mounting ring

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
