Comments

Queen Val: Great product. However the paper tape was a little difficult to remove, but otherwise it works as designed.

David: It doesn't stick very well so will likely peel off if you don't secure it physically

Ande Karma: Definitely recommend applying more adhesive as the kind it has on it quickly came unglued from around the frame, but it did fill in the gaps around the doors to avoid getting the cold air in, as it was designed to do.

R R: Does the job to help seal an old door that is no longer even in its frame. Needed to seal out some bad odours from the rest of the building and it does the job well, nearly enough for the entire frame. The backing is weak where it can tear instead of come off smoothly but the glue was forgiving enough to reposition the foam a couple of times.
Given how the foam feels I am questioning the long term durability of this product and I can readily believe that it may not be as hardy in poor weather, it has a sort of rough dry feeling to it. We will see how well it holds up over time since in this case it's not exposed to the elements.

Missy: I love this stuff. I have only had it for a couple days, but as thin/cheap as it appears to be, it has kept the cold drafts out magically already and raised the temperature in my apt by 2 degrees right away. Love it.
It is VERY sticky, so removal will probably be tricky down the road if I ever have to replace it, but opening and closing the windows and doors is easy and it compresses well to not cause difficulty or jams. I ordered 4 rolls at first, but am so happy with it , I want to do my cold bedroom closet door next, so I have more coming today and will have extra I used it on front door, sliding glass door, and foyer closet trim, and it works like a charm! I recommend. Don't let the small size of it fool ya. Yes, I recommend applying it onto your surface WHILE peeling the backing off as you go so there is more room for error, but it was NOT hard to get right or move a bit for straightening during initial install. Several hours later, my guess is that it's very hard to remove after setting. That is a plus for me

Finn: I used it to light seal a cabinet. The dimensions of foam used was 6ft+6ft+1ft+1ft+1ft+1ft which is 16ft not 17. It was just enough for me but maybe they mean its 17ft if you stretch it a lot when you stick it down. I measured out my pieces with the backing on so I could not stretch it

Douglas Blatherwick: The product is of good quality.
It is very uniform in the foam part and stick well.
My only complaint about it is that taking the back off can be a bit difficult, and you have to be very careful pulling the backing off as it rips easily.

Em: This foam is great. One of the exterior doors on our house was not installed properly and this creates a draft on the bottom and side of the door. I previously bought foam to put in this draft area but it was too dense and the door wouldn't close after I applied it. I found this low density foam on Amazon and put it in the drafty area of the door and I can finally close the door and there is no longer a draft. The only thing about this product that I had an issue with is that I thought it was tricky to peel the foam from the paper, so much so that I thought I got a dud. Eventually I got the paper off and the product works so I am happy, 4 stars.
