Product review (3 stars): Not my first indoor kit but this is better than what I threw away.
I had Deflecto Supurr-Flex&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Deflecto-Supurr-Flex-xae-Lint-Trap-Kit-LTF/dp/B00009W3HD/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Deflecto Supurr-Flex\xae Lint Trap Kit (LTF)</a>&nbsp;unit for years and finally tossed it because it was pretty hard to clean in the corners, and got very funky smelling quickly, but this round one is much easier. We have a total electric rural home with baseboard heat and it was painful to see all that heat exiting our cold house. The downside to these units is that the heat you get is very moist and we were using it year round and both our paint and floor tile adhesive were starting to separate. Were doing this now only during the coldest months and then switching back to the exterior vent in the warmer months. These things are by no means perfect and they do require a lot of cleaning but for the cost of electric heat its definitely a viable alternative if you have an electric dryer. I did toss the plastic pipe straps that come with it because once on they're hard to get off so I went with a large metal screw strap. When I get off my lazy butt Ill be making one from a 5-gallon bucket so it stays full of water longer and I won't have to clean it out as often but thats a job for the summer so this will work fine for now. I knew what I was getting and, for about 10-bucks, I have no complaints with it but if you use it year round you will have lint all over the place and the high humidity and heat will not be kind to your paint and drywall. I cant give this much of a positive rating because the benefits really don't outweigh the damage it does over time but, for a few months during mid-winter its acceptable.
