Product review (5 stars): Quick Connect for Dryer vent
I bought this for rental property, and have yet to install it. It seems to me that it will work great. By having this on the end of the dryer hose, we can disconnect it easily a couple of times a year to clean the lent out of hose, thereby putting less strain on the dryer and less of a fire hazard. My one concern is the heat might cause the plastic tabs (the plastic tabs help it lock in place) to warp or easily break off.  That is all I have to say about that matter!
