FRESH SPEED5-Inch External Extractor Wall Vent Cushioned Non Return Flap

This was impressive right out of the box - the packing itself I would add was really tough box offering max protectionOnce installed, the clean lines and Stainless finish looks very classy on the exterior wall.I understand why some might have been frustrated with the rubber gasket, which is slightly smaller than the frame: however I personally think this was a positive thing. TIP: a little bit of SuperGlue on the corners was enough to secure it firmly in place. Then you can easily snug it up tight against the wall for a tight seal.The Flapper on mine fit well and moved freely; and when held off-axis slightly you could see it seal nicely - the gasket is a bonus here, to dampen any banging! When mounted however it did hang ever so slightly open - this is more a factor of the wall's true verticality though. Perhaps a suggestion for the manufacturer is to recognize that many will have this issue - if it was designed with a built-in internal angle of only a few degrees it would solve this without any negative impact on the functionality.The only other thing I found was the mounting screws were too short for me - Mine had to go through the Dryvit Stucco into the plywood sheathing, so with the thickness of the vent itself (which is nearly an inch) I needed 2-1/2" screws. It would be a bonus if the manufacturer could supply a few different lengths to accommodate different wall thicknesses.Very pleased though, an incredible value I would say.

We bought this as our old plastic dryer vent was broken. This one is sturdy and my husband had no problem installing it. It looks great on the house. We are happy with this purchase.

It is the premium solution to a weather exposed bathroom vent. It is bright metal and looks well constructed. I am pleased with it.

I was quite surprised when I received this as it looks and feels fantastic. I noticed others saying the rubber gasket doesnt fit, but it does if you stretch it out a bit. I added a small line of superglue just to keep it in place and worked fine.Install was simple and the screws provided are of good quality and didnt strip.Also, I have no problem with my vent door closing fully. I do have a block under it from my previous vent, so perhaps that is angled slightly?I bought two more and would certainly recommend this to anyone. Great item at a great price.

This worked exactly as advertised. It is generally well-built and installation was straight forward. I would buy it again for a similar install.
