I've lived in a lot of places over the last decade (4 states, multiple homes and apartments) and my biggest issue with most complexes is the lack of noise barriers. I don't want to be able to hear it when my neighbor is talking quietly in their own home! The place I just moved into was a dream because immediately I noticed the lack of sound from other apartments surrounding me. That was, until the first night in my room.

The sliding glass window, conveniently hiding behind the blinds that had been shut when I viewed the place, had a large gap at the bottom, making it nearly impossible to hear every tiny little noise outside from cars to animals to my neighbor deciding to go out on her deck at 2am (wtf!?). I got online and immediately started looking for solutions to not only the noise, but also the draft that was now careening down the back of my neck from the wind blowing through the gap.

Lots of options came up, but none really seemed like they would be workable for my type of window. Then I saw these. Would it actually stick? We're they really as soundproof as everyone claimed? Well, I just finished cutting and placing the strips and I can already tell you that the sound of the dog barking below me has been muted ten times over, and I no longer feel a draft on my neck! I am thrilled with this product, and it was so incredibly easy to apply too! I got two boxes just to be safe but only used a portion of one, so I will keep the other just in case I find anymore drafts. This is well worth the cost and effort it took to fix something that would have driven me bonkers!!

I'm determining how to use this best to keep drafts out. I have it like the picture but it's not helping a ton so I'm trying some other configurations.

I have an office in a building built in the late 1800s and the windows are always rattling in winter, with the breeze, and the heating bills were outrageous. I tried rolling up towels and blankets along the base and in the middle of the windows, but nothing worked, and the towels looked awful! Finally, I decided to try this product. My only regret is that I didn't order this years ago! It's wonderful. My heating bills have cut in half now and the windows look elegant and clean and this product worked great at the base/sill of the window as well as in the middle where the locks are. I am a 70 year old woman, and I had no trouble installing this on my own. Super easy. Just measure, cut, zip off the strip and press. I have white trim on my windows but this doesn't come in white, so I ordered the gray, and it looks great. It's really not even noticeable. Why didn't I do this years ago? Great product

It seems to work okay so far. It's been up for 4 days and is definitely blocking some cold air. Hoping for it to last through winter

seem to keep bugs out. i am happy
