Pronzini/Muller Supreme: I'm not sure I was expecting much, and after reading reviews, was sure the plastic would be clingy and very hard to get open and install. Not true at all! The plastic is amazingly clear and you'll never know once it's up, you have anything to the window. My large picture window in my living room, leaked air so badly, I could sit on the couch and feel the air pouring over me, even with double lined thermal drapes! This plastic opened easily, and was easy to stretch. The tape looked very flimsy and I did not expect it to hold, but it did and if you put the plastic on it, it's easy to remove and stick again. I didn't think that would actually work, but it did. I pulled it as tight as I could and then took the blow dryer to it. At first, that didn't work well, until I realized, you have to set the drying almost directly on the plastic and then it will shrink and tighten the plastic. Plastic sticks well and doesn't come undone. The amount of cold air it has stopped is simply amazing! It's warm and cozy. I made sure the window was super clean to begin with, and the wood I was sticking the tape to, had no oils from polish on it. My window had a wooden window sill, so I took the plastic...

Cliente Amazon: Dalla foto prodotto sembrava ci fossero due scatole. Me ne è arrivata solo una.

Elena: Me ayudó mucho a que no entre la corriente de aire frío, mi casa ya no es un congelador.
La cinta que trae no me sirvió. Termine pegandola con cinta doble cara que ya tenía en casa para una ventana y el resto con cinta canela. De ahí en fuera estoy muy contenta con el resultado.

Amazon Customer: Good product that is relatively easy to apply and smooths out nicely when warmed afterward with a hair dryer. My only concern had been that it seemed a bit thin (the Duck branded version is notably thicker and stronger). However, after using for two winters, the thickness hasn't been a problem and all of the windows that I covered remained tightly sealed until the films were taken down about 5-6 months later.

Dellybean: I bought this kit 2 winters ago. We have a ranch house on the side of a mountain and it gets very cold. Combine that with really crummy old windows and our house was freezing. Not good when you pay for home heating oil!!! It was so bad at one point that when it was windy outside, I actually witnessed the drapes in my house billowing into the room. That is when I decided to purchase this kit. I actually got 2 kits to make sure I could finish all the windows in my house, and I ended up having plenty left over. I installed the double sided tape and stuck on the plastic, used the blowdryer to warm it up and shrink wrap the windows, and I was done. No more draft or chilly rooms! You are supposed to take it off after each winter but I have left it on for 2 years now. I find it also keeps my house cooler in the summer. Combined with thermal drapes, you have a combination for energy savings.
PROS:
- sticks great and lasts for a long time
-once you get the hang of it, its easy to install
-really has saved us money on home heating oil
CONS:
- if you don't totally shrink the plastic, you can see the ripples from the outside of the house and it looks a little messy, but if...

Cold Person: I know how reviews go- I know that usually you have that one person who got a dud or was temperamental or had bad intentions and I take one bad review in a slue of many with the gain of salt. I also seldom write reviews and I know that people are more motivated to write a review based on a negative experience than a positive one! I usually write about good experiences. This was not such an experience.

I do agree with the other reviewers that it was a pain to do with their directions and the cutting was problematic, etc. I remember buying the packages for my storm doors, not realizing that it would cover both until I had already bought 2. Perhaps that was my error. The rest, I'm sorry to say, must have been the company's.

I covered a large storm/patio double door, one quite large window that took up much of the wall (with some creativity on my part) and 3 other, over-sized windows (I say over-sized because they are a little wider than some and definitely longer. "luxury windows" except for the fact that they leak air like you wouldn't believe!). I spent some money here, folks. What is that? A storm door, lets say 2 or 3 sheets for the wall sized window (maybe a triple...
