Product review (5 stars): Solves my problem!
Solved my dryer vent issues.  The dyer in the basement requires the the vent hose to go up at least 4 feet, with 2 90 degree turns in it.  This made me nervous about a dryer fire.  The "bucket" will remain upright without the bracket once you put water in it.  I also purchased a dehumidifier to handle the evaporation component.
