Product review (1 stars): PIECE-O-JUNK!
this dryer vent indeed is poorly manufactured with thin plastic and is put together in a bulky,non-efficent,useless way. my grandmother has a stacking washer and dryer in her one story condo and since she only has a crawl space instead of a basement she has an indoor dryer vent from deflecto..it does absoutely no good. all it does is force the vented material out of the collection box to swirl about in her closet/bathroom.do not purchase if u want a working item
