> 3 dayMy house was built in the late 50s, saying I have issues with heat/cooling loss to the attic is an understatement. I purchased this product as a first step. At the same time, I went to a local hardware store and bought a thick insulating bag that uses velcro to attach to the opening. This product was easy to install with a staple gun. Its pretty easy to get in and out with the zipper. The other product was not as easy, and you should staple the velcro or the heat in your attic may cause the glue to melt. That product is not easy to remove and put back up when you go into the attic. This product, simply, did not make a difference. The other product makes a noticable difference.

> 3 dayThis product is made of very solid material. Easy to install. Just staple the edges and apply caulk and youre on your way to save on electricity bill. My hallway is noticebly warmer with the cover in place now.

> 3 dayFeels durable and built of quality. I have an opening Identical to the display picture. The installation is easy, was only a pain in the a** because I installed it in the summer time when it is unbearable in our attic. I used nails and spaced them apart a bit closer than instructed. I do not feel anywhere near the same amount of draft coming in. I cannot say if this has saved me money on my utility bill as it was the end of the summer. I can say that my room which is right below the attic felt cooler than before this. For the price and quality, I am satisfied! I would recommend this to a friend or relative.

> 3 dayI have installed tent and I feel its is working very well with the Heat/Air and keeping the house cooler. But I believe I will have to wait 3 more electric bills to see the real difference. Ordering was very easy. Took about 30 minutes to put in.

> 3 dayWe have a house with a drop down attic stair,and the upstairs was always freezing in the winter (we live in Boston). We have tried three different kinds of these, and they have all not really worked or werent good quality, etc. This one is good because the zippers allow you to go in and out as much as you want without having to do any extra meneuvering. And you can tell it is keeping the cold air in the attic. One note, when measuring, you can totally round up. I got one size bigger since we were in between and it was perfect.

> 3 daySeems well built. Easily installed. My primary issue is the zipper is difficult to operate and I have concerns with it lasting long term. Perhaps those concerns are unfounded but you really have to struggle an apply effort espcially to get the zipper around corners and Im concerned it may fail there at some point in the future. Well see. Overall though I installed it in minutes, it deadens sound, seals airflow and is relatively unobtrusive when getting in and out even with boxes and such. Id buy again.

> 3 dayThe attic tent was recommended by my hvac guy, but he want to charge twice what this cost to provide and install it. Even though I didnt crawl up in the attic myself to install it, I knew it was a DIY item. I got my husband to do it! The only issue was leveling the attic rough in. The tent itself was installed with no problem. Ive noticed that the AC doesnt kick on as often and there is a lower amount of dust in the house. I also found some pleated air filters for the air return that fit the opening exactly. I had to order because the size is not carried in the home improvement stores. All in all, this is a good product Id recommend.
