Très bonne solution à l’écrasement des traditionnels tuyaux flexibles derrière la sécheuse. Tout dépend de l’emplacement de votre sortie par rapport à la sortie sur l’appareil vous risquez d’avoir à découper le tuyaux rigide pour le raccourcir

My old dryer fit comfortably in the laundry area of my house, with about 1" to 2" to spare behind the bifold doors. I will soon be needing a new dryer and found out that all the latest models are 1 to 1 ½ inches deeper, making them a no-go, until I found this vent on Amazon. Fighting for every inch of space, this vent kit reduced the distance from the wall from 4 - 5 inches (the old hose) to about 2 ½".After I telescoped it to the right length, I covered the seams with aluminum tape, then covered the outside and inside flat surfaces with self-stick heat shield, to prevent heat from being transferred to the walls or the dryer shell. It worked perfectly as I installed it on my old dryer, and now my measurements say I can fit a new dryer in the same place.My installation is with the inlet and outlet facing the same direction. You don't get any space saving if they are reversed; if you need more room for your dryer, you must have the outlet facing forward, and attach the 4" hose to the outlet. Once installed, it works perfectly, and with having sealed the seams of the telescoping interface, and added heat shield, it's an excellent device.Use care when handling it - the metal edges are knife-sharp.

I have a relatively small laundry room where every inch counts and I wanted to get my dryer closer to the wall than a spool of round slinky aluminum foil crap, or plastic crap, like you get at the big box store allows. This tidy and well made solution fit my application nicely. Not cheap, but worth the money if you are tight for space and want a good solution. Note that the product photo shows it as it ships, with the two holes on the same side. You need to take the telescope apart all the way, and put it back together so the holes are opposite. I found that pretty easy to do, but it did require a bit of force and a pliers.

I spent the extra money to but the whirlpool version expecting better quality but this fell apart during installation. The seams are not welded, just pressed to gether. With that said, the metal is a thin guage so it is really unreleible construction.

I purchased this with the hope of installing it with my new dryer. The installers couldn't do it, so I had to return it. The part itself is sturdy and works for measurements over 18". I've noticed that this particular part comes from 0 - 18 inches and then over 25. For a regular sized laundry room, this is ideal for saving space and would recommend.

I purchased this to replace the flimsy plastic tube that as it would kink and reduce our dryer's effectiveness - it would often take 2 or 3 dry cycles to get our clothes completely dry prior to purchasing this piece. Once we installed this piece it stopped the repeated dry cycles. It's also space saving as there is no flimsy flexible tubing taking up space behind the dryer. Be sure to measure the length you need from where the dryer connects to the dryer vent for correct size.

I thought this would solve my crimped dryer hose problem, but this item was too long to work. It is similar sheet metal as used in the system duct piping - so durable. I can’t say much more because I returned it. I will say that it may be difficult connecting had it been usable.

This thing was life saver. I didn't even know such a thing existed. As far as easy to install... the only thing that would have made it easier is if it installed itself. Anything hard about the install didn't really have anything to do with the product, it was where it had to go. I will lump the Value and Sturdiness together. It is plenty sturdy for the price. It did exactly what I needed it to do and gave me the extra couple of inches to the wall I needed. I would recommend.

Used this so our dryer wouldn't sit far off the wall. Worked perfectly and fit good. Other then the ends having a bit of damage, that I fixed, I would have given 5 ✨️.

I did not use this, material is very thin, received it bent thus making it impossible to install

I used this to add an inwall vent for a washroom celling vent. Because I wanted the vent to exit below the deck on the foundation wall, I had to use the periscope to vent down and out. Worked perfect for a seamless and high flow install.

Nicely made with air tight welds. Includes required clamps to drier and fits snugly against the wall. Far better than the junk I bought at Home Depot.
