Published: April 6th, 2025
Pros
- •Effective vapor barrier that significantly improves air sealing and reduces cold drafts.
- •Noticeable temperature increase in enclosed spaces, such as a closet, from 45º to 65º.
- •Provides great value for the price when compared to more expensive alternatives.
- •Suitable for use as a cold frame or mini greenhouse, particularly in cold climates.
- •Recommended for use with exposed wall studs and poorly designed spaces.
Cons
- •Significantly thinner and less durable compared to other brands.
- •Not truly clear as advertised, affecting its transparency and possibly seedling growth.
- •Folding the product does not improve its quality; feels cheap and ineffective.
- •Many customers are frustrated by the lack of options outside of the 'HDX' branded products.
- •Inadequate for lonerm purposes like covering windows and door openings.
- •Noticeable strong floral odor, not mentioned among pros but implied in product details.
Bottom Line
While this 10 ft. x 25 ft. Clear 3.5 mil Plastic Sheeting offers effective vapor barrier performance and a noticeable increase in temperature in enclosed spaces, it's not the best choice if transparency or long-term durability is a concern. It's a budget-friendly option but lacks the durability and quality of previously available brands. If transparency or durability is crucial, you might want to explore other alternatives.
