Water Activated 10ft Flood Barrier, Pack of 1 | Flood Water Management: Use to control, contain and divert flood water away from your property

I will be buying these again!! We had a flood from rain a couple weeks ago and it was unexpected and destroyed a lot. I heard we were getting a lot of rain with flooding this weekend so on Friday I ordered these and the single pack ones, they got here at 4 am, I put them around the outside of our crawl and foundation and garage doors, and 4+ inches of rain I didn't have water in the garage or coming up from my flood vents in my house because these things stopped the water!!! They are so easy, I soaked some the night before and others I didn't and they just did literally what they said they were supposed to do. With a young child and losing a lot in a recent flood and ripping up my son's playroom floor because it when I got these set up and through out the rain storm I changed them my anxiety and stress level decreased so much because this product did its job! No odor, no mess, very stable even the ones I didn't fill and I let the rain start to fill they stayed in place! Thank you I felt like my home was safe. I even have family in florida that I told them about these and they are already ordering them!

I bought this to try to stop water from entering my garage and done very well. i would recommend if need something quick and it does work!

Great product! Fast action and does the job well!

I've used Quick Dam products for two years now, and find that they are a quick and easy alternative to heavy sandbags for diverting and holding back low level water. For water over 3" however, you'll still want to consider other means to minimize flooding.What I like about the product:➤ It's easy to store and deploy as needed.➤ When dry, it's not heavy at all so no need for 'muscle'.➤ You can place the flood barrier around crawl spaces, in doorways, around flowerbeds and even when wet there is some 'bend' that can occur.➤ The 10' length is manageable to move with two people, or one strong one.➤ The durability of the product will last one full season if you don't drive over it.➤ The product swells when more water is absorbed, thus in a steady rain it will be to its full size before the standing water becomes a problem.----------------------------------------------------------What I wish was better about the product...♠︎ You can't drive over it when it's completely saturated or it will rupture; the mesh enclosure is strong, but not that strong!♠︎ I would love to be able to stack them and effectively keep out higher water, but I find that when they are fully saturated the long ones 5' and longer, roll off of one another instead of staying put.♠︎ They say if you let them dry out you can reuse them, but I find that one season is about all you can get after using them for several months.♠︎ If the barrier ruptures and it's wet conditions, you're left with a gooey mess that's tough to clean up and potentially toxic to pets. It dries white, so if you don't clean it up properly you may have discoloration when the rains subside.♠︎ The barriers are relatively expensive. I've purchased several sizes and find that for my uses, the longer ones work best.----------------------------------------------The water absorbing gel beads inside the Quick Dam products are designed to absorb and hold water. In doing so, they expand and thus the flood barrier expands. Once fully saturated the Quick Dam flood barrier is heavy (water weight) and tough to move, which is really a good thing! They do keep low level water at bay (I use them to keep water from coming into my garage and to protect the crawlspace) and are easy to use.-----------------------------------------------------

Whenever I hear of heavy rain, I make sure I have these to protect my garage from water. These are amazing. It’s easy to use - just throw them on the ground by the garage door and let them do their thing. They absorb water and I can dry them out in the sun. They are reasonably priced. Make sure you get the right length as they come in multiple lengths. Buy them if you’re worried about water.

Used this to set up a place to water test a sliding door we suspected of leaking. We made a half circle around the bottom of the door and put a hose in the area. Yes! The water in that area, just in front of the door, entered the house and leaked down to the room below. This made our waterproofing decisions easier and saved us a lot of time and money. It is versatile enough to use to stop flood waters as well. Our son used it for that when the San Lorenzo River overflowed. The size and shape are useful.

Let me start off by saying this is the third time I've purchased this particular brand of water dam, so so I can't knock it too much...but its not what it used to be. Our first Quick dam (17') lasted almost 2-1/2 years, and in those years there was a lot of cycling from dry to wet and back again, combined with dragging it back and forth on an asphalt driveway (we use it to stop rainwater from entering through our two-car garage door) and despite the advertising saying you can drive over it, we decided NOT to take a chance. Anyway, it finally wore out and wouldn't expand anymore, so we purchased another (17') Quick Dam hoping for another good run time-wise. Unfortunately, we immediately noticed a difference. While the product worked extremely well initially, it started losing a bit of the (cellulose?) filler through the bottom stitching/seams which help create the "foot" of the dam. We attributed this loss to the newer style sewing/stitchwork when compared to the original. This slow loss went on for the duration of the Spring/Summer/Fall seasons which left us with a minimally usable product at the end of the year. We chalked it up to maybe getting a "bad one" off the production line, and purchased three more (including these two) because its a cheap investment in protection against water damage (for us).We bought 2 -10' Dams and a 17', because we wanted to try simply moving 1 10' section instead of our usually having to move/flip-back 1/2 of a 17' dam in front of the garage door. The 17' is still in its pack, unused, because we are using the 2 10' dams to provide a wider coverage area.Bottom line, aside from the difference in widths of the Quick Dams is that there is still an issue of the product losing its filler. I've attached a photo showing the loss of fill (white material in seam of dam) after the dam's first use. There is NOT a substantial amount of fill lost, and while some loss may be expected, after just a half dozen dry/wet/dry cycles its already not as "full" and doesn't block the water as well as when new. I can only attribute this to the product having less absorbent material inside after each use. The product does work, and works pretty well, I was just hoping for a longer product life span. For the money its a good product against preventing water damage, its just not as good as it used to be...

This works beautifully. My sister used it in the balcony of her house in the tropics. Amazing. Great product

This is a must have during floods great for doorways & windows or to direct water to another direction

These work great! Take a long time to dry out and easy to.stack if needed.I ordered 1 (10 ft) to test and was awesome! So I immediately ordered another the day the 1st one arrived. I paid $32.99+ each.Less than a day after I ordered, they went down to $20 on Sale! and I hadn't even received mine yet. What a bummer:(This isn't a complaint against the product but is frustrating. So, I will order a 3rd now, on Sale.But I would have ordered 4 or 5 if I had the $20 sale.

L’ho testato per la prima volta ieri sera, in occasione di un nubifragio senza precedenti.Ebbene funziona, si espande a contatto con l’acqua e crea una barriera efficace.Non è economico, ma oltre ad essere pratico e semplice da usare, protegge dagli allagamenti

Lengthwise it is usefulCan have some more breadth to it

Holds the water well!Full ratings for this product .
