We needed a semi-permanent spring through summer solution to rainy years. Water runs down the hill from the neighborhood and if it rains hard enough the water runs up against our foundation and the basement leaks. This is due to previous owners adding too much fill to the lawn when they removed a swimming pool in the 90s. I figured how to stop the problem from happening by using Quick Dams that puff up on demand. But the price of those is too high compared to owning this reusable PVC tube. The material is nice enough. I was mostly concerned with how thin it was, but it's reinforced PVC kind of like the floor of a nice tent or a life raft. It's nicer than your kid's inflatable wading pool, so my worries were relieved when I took it out of the box. It comes with two black pieces which I assume are patches. The 'wings' it comes with I will not be using, but they're yellow and can be kept to use as patches. I'm sure rubber cement will work well to fix this if needed. Most of the negative reviews are people trying to stop a one-time event and then drain and remove the thing. I plan on inflating in April and leaving until July. I didn't have any problems filling it with my garden nose. Make sure the filler it pointed up and that it's at the highest level and you can get the whole thing to fill all the way. I got the yellow one because it won't get as hot in the sun hopefully, but now we have a giant 24 foot lawn banana. But it's a necessary evil to keep my house dry for the time being until I win the lottery and can call out heavy earth moving companies to swale and tile my back yard.

I have a small home in coastal Florida. I purchased one 24' and two 12' in preparation for the 2025 hurricane season. Because the 2025 hurricane season hasn't started yet I haven't had to use the products. I will say that the three arrived with a sample of the product within the boxes. The product sample is very thick. Like really thick!! Impressive! This year I'm feeling somewhat calmer because with an approaching hurricane I won't have to spend valuable time looking for sand bags or the back pain of moving so many back before and after the hurricane season. One less thing I have to stress over. Also, with proper storage I will be able to reuse them the following year(s). I am confident that I made a great choice and they are a great value for the money. The only thing I regret is that the door size water dams weren't available.

My main concern was how do you empty it. There is a fill opening for filling it with a hose. It takes about 30 minutes to fill. There is no drain opening on the bottom . I tried contacting customer service which was a joke. 2 times I had to send them my Amazon order number. All I wanted to know was what there suggestion was for emptying it. A very simple question and they were more concern with the Amazon order number than supporting the product. The product is well built and works. With no answer from customer service I bought an electric pump to drain it. Also though it weighs a ton you can somewhat roll it to get the fill opening on its side to start draining

Doing home remodeling and I needed a temporary barrier to keep rainwater from running off the new patio into the house. It works well and seems well made with durable material and strong seams. It needs to lie perfectly flat--if you butt the end it against a wall or run a cord or hose underneath it will leak--just have some towels and sandbags ready. It's a good option expecially given the price, and I was glad to be able to empty it out, roll it up and fit it back in it's original box when done. I do wish the filler nozzle had an adaptor to drain it through a regular garden hose. When full it's impossible to move, but you may not want to drain it where you original set it up to control water. (Actaully you don't need to fill it 1005, I fill mine about one third.) Also leaks around the end when butted against a wall. Have some supplemental sandbags ready

Easy to use but you need two people to fill it. It saved our garage by blocking water from our side garage door during hurricane Helene and Milton. Well worth the cost. Don’t overfill and it will be easier to use to block crevices. Use plastic bag or sheet to cover door cracks and this against it held the water back. It was only a small amount of water not a lake but it kept it out.

One of the 4 bags came with a hole in it. I reached out to the company and they said to dispute the issue via Amazon. When you troubleshoot the item it sends you to the company’s web site. Poor customer service for a poorly made product.

I’m am ready for next spring! I am not going to suffer a flooded sunroom again. Thinking about adding alcohol for the winter, so the water doesn’t freeze, as we get more rain than snow.

Durable, what you read is what we got. We are using them to hold a pool cover down and they are doing their job. Strong, thick material that will last.

Ça fonctionne très bien quand il y a une montée d’eau rapide. Très efficace. Facile à installer et à enlever

Hallo, sehr gut, immer wieder, hat alles wunderbar geklappt. MfG P.D.

Not yet put in place or tested. Product quality looks good

Batard d’eau qui remplit complètement sa fonction

Purchased the four pack of 4 ft water barriers, to use at the end of my driveway to divert water and most importantly soap run off from car washing, onto my Riverstone instead of the public street (there is a bylaw in my area requiring the runoff from car washing not to end up on the street) They work as I was hoping, if you take a look at the pictures I've attached you can see the soap is stopped by the barriers and directed to the Riverstone.. It looks like there is a fair amount of water behind the barriers but the majority of that was from filling the barriers and whatnot. I would say 99% of the soap was diverted, and 90plus percent of the water. Keep in mind these things are super heavy when filled, I don't intend to keep filling them with every car wash so I have a little platform I built that I use with a hand truck to move them into place and then put them away when done.
