Tools and Hardware Reviews of Dundas Jafine TDIDVKZW ProFlex Indoor Dryer Vent Kit with 4-Inch by 5-Foot ProFlex Duct
Customer Review: Don't Put Water In It!
Summary: 2 Stars
I don't really see the purpose of this indoor vent. I have a great little Avanti dryer that doesn't put any lint out of the vent though, so if you have a dryer that does, perhaps it will be a better fit for you. I filled the bottom half full of water as the instructions directed and it turned my apartment into a wet sauna, it was awful. Now I don't put any water in it and it works just fine, no more steam bath and difficulty breathing. There is never any lint in it though after using the dryer, but I really think it's because I have such a well made dryer.Customer Review: Does not catch the ultra fine lint!
Summary: 3 Stars
Be prepared for the area (wall, counter, side of your dryer, laundry room air, floor) to be covered in the really fine lint that flies out of those little side vents. I rolled a sheet of plastic mesh to sit inside this thing, trying to keep the stuff from floating out and about. Still, that didn't work--I will try that knee-high nylon somebody else mentioned. I don't know why this "kit" does not include everything you need, since you will need some sort of filter to keep it from making a mess. If you are asthmatic, it could really screw you up.Customer Review: Inexpensive alternative
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an inexpensive alternative to an expensive problem. I had a portable washer & dryer and needed a way to vent the dryer without drilling holes in the walls. This worked perfectly. Simply attach the hose to the dryer, fill the plastic tub with some water, and the dryer will vent right into the room without leaving dust and lint everywhere because the water traps it in the tub. Clean the tub between each use and you're good to go. This is definitely a great value and an ingenious way to solve a little problem that some of us have!Customer Review: Great for Haier portable dryers!
Summary: 5 Stars
I own a Haier HLP140E portable dryer and bought this to help with using inside. I keep the bucket with water in it as directed and place on a window sill (either open or closed) and it works perfectly. My dryer doesn't produce a lot of lint at all so cleaning this out is maybe once every 2 months. With the window closed, for me, it doesn't create a sauna but I do have a larger kitchen in my apartment.
Highly recommended for indoor dryers, especially the Haier HLP140E.
Customer Review: Pleasantly surprised
Summary: 4 Stars
When I got the box I thought there was a mistake cause I envisioned the bucket to be much larger. I was worried about the space it would take. But it turns out to be quite small - about 5x6 inches. Construction seems OK it should hold up for quite a while. Opens and closes easily for cleaning. The only improvement to make is like another poster said put a stocking or netting over the vent holes to trap any stray lint.
