Good but. weight it

Great product for the price. I have the screen mesh version as well. I could tell the difference with the temp of my house immediately.There is a major major flaw though. Its magnets are somewhat weak and it's not a weighted bottom. I put more magnets in the bottom and weighted it as much as I could with what i had around the house. I recommend buying one with weights already on it. For anyone that doesnt know a strong gust of wind or pups coming in and out will leave the flaps too far from…

Pros
  • Good product
Cons
  • May not work effectively with certain air conditioners or heating systems

It really works best in my review

I bought this product to keep the heat on the first floor of my three-story townhouse. It is actually keeping the first floor warmer. It was easy to install. The only thing I would complain about is the bottom part doesn't close automatically, you have to manually close it. I guess it doesn't close automatically because I am using it on an opening instead of a door.

Pros
  • Lightweight and easy to move, making it perfect for use in rental properties, vacation homes, or temporary living situations
Cons
  • Can be easily damaged by pets or children

Door cover Not helpful

Well it seemed. Like a very good idea to get this to try to block out some of the cold air that will come through the cracks in my front door. I was able to install it pretty quickly but once I put it up I realized it does not allow you to open up the door so. If you’re looking for something that allows you to keep outAir or bugs etc. please keep in mind that the way that the material is cut that if you have it on a door that opens in you will not be able to open the door and gets caught on the

Pros
  • The magnets close right back up after walking through. Happy with purchase
Cons
  • May not be durable enough for heavy use

great product in my review

Have to leave my back door open so the dog can go in and out when he wants. Bought this for the winter time. It really keeps the draft out, and for whatever reason my heat bill this past month was about half of what it usually is. The only bad thing is I think it needs more magnets on the bottom because sometimes they don't close and I have to go physically close them. Other than that it's a great product

Pros
  • Great for keeping the cold out
Cons
  • Can create a fire hazard if not installed properly

Worth the money, but need improvement.

It was easy to install. But, - The adhesion doesn’t take a little wind. 😢 First it was flapping in the wind and then-, The whole thing came down.It is keeping nice in quiet weather and my cats and dogs can go through. Not 100% for the cat/dog flap. A little more plasticy than I expected.

Pros
  • It's a really good temporary barrier if you're waiting to install a door
Cons
  • Can create a barrier for those with mobility or physical challenges

Disappointed. best in my review

Purchased to seal off the bedroom in my studio apartment so I could use my portable air conditioner. Hung fine, worked until I turned on the ac. The negative pressure created by the ac easily overwhelmed the magnetic closure, pulling the door into the room, leaving it open 2/3 of the way. Really disappointed. May be fine to isolate a room in general, cannot recommend for use with a portable air conditioner.

Pros
  • Screen Doors
Cons
  • May not provide adequate insulation for certain temperature extremes

Simple & extremely effective

Fantastic! Easy to install and a brilliant design. Simple & extremely effective. I used it on the other side of our attic door. I was surprised at the amount of heat it blocks!

Pros
  • Perfecta!
Cons
  • Can cause the door to be more difficult to open and close

Nothing insulated about it

There is nothing "insulated" about this. It's a plastic sheet with adhesive velcro around the outer edges and magnets along the inner edges. Does it stop cold drafts? Meh. Better than nothing. Does it blow open with a stiff breeze? YES. There are spaces between the magnets in the middle so there will be a few gaps you have to work with and flatten out fold wrinkles from packaging/shipping to get a complete seal. I put mine up in a doorway to a room that is rarely used but does not have a door…

Pros
  • Fit well, room stays cool.
Cons
  • Can be more expensive than traditional door covers

Works better than I expected for garage

I recently installed ac/heating in my garage which has an open doorway to an unconditioned shed outside. I bought this brown EVA version as a stop-gap measure until I could hang a proper door in the space, and I was really surprised at the temperature difference across both sides.It didn't adhere super well to the raw OSB which I wiped down with a wet rag, but a cheap staple gun took care of that into the backing velcro. Now I can still remove the curtain easily without ripping off any velcro.

Pros
  • Made of high-quality EVA material that is strong, durable, and resistant to wear and tear
Cons
  • May not be effective for reducing energy costs

Edited after 2nd purchase.

UPDATED REVIEW 11/08/21The first purchase went very well and 2 years later it's still hanging over my doorway.I bought a second one to double-insulate the same doorway on the other side. The quality of the adhesive has gone downhill. It barely sticks and it falls off of the doorway within moments. I'm deeply disappointed.__________________ORIGINAL REVIEWI bought this to help keep my 1-bedroom apartment warm, as there's no door between the bedroom and the kitchen / entrance -- and the…

Pros
  • Keeps the cold air in! Perfect.
Cons
  • Can be easily dislodged by strong winds or other weather conditions

Works great! best in my review

We used this as a doggie door from the kitchen to sunroom (that has a doggie flap door). Works great to keep cold air from entering house. The dogs took to it easier than the outdoor flap door. And we attached it on the outside of door frame so we can still close and lock our door as needed.

Pros
  • Great. Our unheared room goes down to 46° and this insulates it from the rest of the house
Cons
  • May not be useful for reducing noise pollution

Saving Money on my review.

Bought this product almost 2 years ago and still saving us money. Keeps drafts out. Works just as described. When we need to replace our "door" we would buy from again.

Pros
  • Installed in about 20 minutes. Keeps the hot air upstairs.
Cons
  • May cause damage to the door frame or surrounding walls

Keeps cold air out for my opinion

Great at keeping cold air out! I leave back door open so dogs can go in and out. Adhesive was okay but super durable. I replaced it with 3M double-sided tape and works perfectly.

Pros
  • I haven't had time to fully evaluate the product.
Cons
  • It’s not pretty at all but the price was decent.

Measure 2x put up 1x

WHAT A DIFFERENCE! This has helped ao much with keeping our ac to not come down the stairs the air upstairs now stays cool. As in most houses our 2nd level is always hotter and I had the ol Blanket in door way trick but wasn't working as well as needed. This did the trick. Measure 2x put up 1x bc the adhesive is strong and if you need ro peel up to correct it takes paint off walls. BUT holds great! Totally recommended!

Pros
  • Building Materials
Cons
  • Can be difficult to open or close with hands full of items

satisfied customer: my feedback

The 3M velcro tape. didn’t work all that well. since my door was unfinished and this was a temporary fix i was able to use staples. but for keeping heat in the Room it works much better than expected

Pros
  • Exterior Doors
Cons
  • Can be more difficult to replace or repair than traditional door covers

Got it earlier than expected and it's a fine product

It's exactly what I hoped for. Easy to install and keeps the outside pollution from entering the area. And the magnetic closures work perfectly.

Pros
  • Simple to install, stops drafts, magnets seal tightly but are easy walk thru - cats love it!
Cons
  • May not be effective in extremely cold or hot climates

Not the best.very flimsy and no tie backs.

This magnetic door curtain is very flimsy. It came with a small tear in it. It does not come with any tie backs.The adhesive is very strong and comes with plenty as well as tacks. The tacks are not very durable. Several bent while trying to install.

Pros
  • The reusability.
Cons
  • Don’t know yet how well it will work. Not clear like we thought we ordered and a bit wider than needed.

It serves it’s purpose

Keeps the cold air from my ac where I need it and helps to keep the electricity bill down. So far it’s stayed up and is doing the job it was intended to do perfectly.

Pros
  • Comes with a satisfaction guarantee, so you can rest assured that you are getting a high-quality product that meets your needs and exceeds your expectations
Cons
  • May not provide adequate protection from extreme weather conditions

It’s great for blocking cold air.

The install was easy. My dog and I walk through it many times a day with zero problems. It has helped a great deal with blocking the cold air coming from my den, which isn’t heated. So, yay!

Pros
  • Brown color complements a wide range of interior styles, making it easy to match with existing decor
Cons
  • Can collect condensation and become slippery to walk on

Not what it used to be

I've purchased this product 3 times previously. The ripped because of the dog no big deal. Could fix with tape and they lasted long enough that it was a good value. I just purchased the 4th one and this is not the same product. The magnets have been changed and are totally useless. The door would stay closed and there was barely any wind. The new magnets in this product are straight garbage and I just threw the new one in the trash. Will not be purchasing through this company again nor…

Pros
  • Building Supplies
Cons
  • Can cause the room to feel cramped or claustrophobic
