Customer Reviews for VEVOR Flood Barriers, Water Flood Dam Bags 6 Pack, Water Barriers for Flooding, Water Activated Flood Barriers for Home, Doorway, Driveway(2FT x 1in)

These only arrived yesterday, but I have already put one to use. When we get heavy rain and wind blowing in from the North, as it did last night, we get water the runs under the side door of my equipment shed. I put one out yesterday afternoon when the rain started. I went out this morning and the pad was fully swollen, and the dirt and gravel floor in the shed stayed dry. I really like this. They are about 2 feet long, and you'd need more for larger doors. I am considering putting a couple around my sump pump area.

We live in hurricane country so have gotten used to going out and filling up sandbags in hopes that we can block water from entering the house. The problem with sandbags is that they break easily and don’t hold up for more than one use. These are pretty cool in that you can use them again and again. What’s also cool is that they will soak up some of the water and then create a barrier. If you need a barrier quickly, you can pre soak the bags. The directions state that it takes a few months for them to completely dry out, but you can then store them away. We’re just coming into hurricane season, so I suspect it won’t be too long before we get to try them out. Will update after.

My neighbor had some of these flood barriers bags on hand when the Astrometric River hit Southern California February 2024. We did not and had to actually go out in the rain to get additional sandbags when major flooding in our neighborhood occurred. I am happy with this set from Vevor. The set even comes with a clearly written instruction booklet on use, storage options and disposal options. According to the booklet, they can be dried out and reused! I am so happy to have a set of these flood barrier bags on hand for future flooding problems. Each bag is individually vacuumed packed in plastic. They are flat, light weight and easy to store. They expand upon contact with water, so I am keeping them all dry in their individual bags. Sandbags do a good job, but they take planning and forethought. Filling and lugging very heavy sandbags is hard work. This is a product I hope to never use, but I am glad to have on hand. Useful for emergency flooding situation.

Living in hurricane alley it is always important to have a good emergency kit and plans. These flood barriers are a great addition to my kit. The last hurricane we went through we had water that came into our garage, and it was scary to see the waters rise. If I would have had these bags there would not have been an issue. I never knew these existed until now. I do believe I will be ordering more of these that are longer in length. This smaller set would be perfect for doorways, but you would need longer ones for the garage door opening. I like the fact that they are easy to store and are light-weight. This is a great product that can not only save your property, but they also give you a bit of peace of mind. I would highly recommend them.
