Highlighted Reviews

— Seena

"Easy installation, insulated, happy with purchase"

— Nora

"There wasn't nearly enough length of foam tape to apply to one side of the dog door. Also, the foam tape ripped as I peeled it off the backing, thereby leaving me with small bits of foam tape to adhere to the dog door."

Bottom Line

This product may not be worth its price point, given the significant issues reported by users. Consider reviewing alternative options or purchasing additional materials to supplement the installation kit.
