The quality is very good, mine does leak when it rains or I wash it. I would look into getting new ones or see if you can get thicker weather stripping.

I'm using two of the closures on hollow core doors. No problem with installation. Work Great.

I only ordered the flaps. The top of the flaps rip after awhile. I did not order a whole new door.

I did not have any problems with leakage. I have used them for transporting pickles, making jello shots and putting condiments in to take for lunch.

Based on my research, thes were the best for durability and finish. The defiant and gatehouse brands don't hold up as well and often will get the rust build-up on the entire hinge after a few years. The National are a little more, I think it is worth it ( ad I'm happy so far)

I have 2 and use them frequently and have no problems with them leaking - very pleased.

I have not had leakage issues. The assembly sits taller than the hood. The OEM did not.

Flat doors are best. The door I put this on has a few uneven spots and it shows.

almost no leakage. I've used them for years on-air with pretty heavy processing and no problems. Go for it.

It is not completely sealed up. There are some cracks where the door is located. However, I've had it since mid-June and have had no problems as of yet!

I have really liked mine. Much better quality than the cheaper ones they replaced. I've had them over 6 months now.

I have not had any problem leaking or otherwise. The Brondell S1000-EW has been a very good product that I would buy again and recommend to others.

The only issue we had with shipping, was one of the doors was inverted when it arrived - causing a tiny gap in the seal when we had to pull the door back through. Other than the tiny gap, we did not have any other issues.

A follow up to my previous response... there are at least two different interior door styles !!!

I have had mine a few months... do not use it as much as I would like but have had no problems with leakage. Hopefully it will last a good, long time, but I have not had mine long enough to know.

I used my old one over it.. it is a little long so I just tuck it in. Not a big problem... the door still closes fine. I really like this unit.

It's not the best for front doors because, in order for it to work properly, there has to be that slight gap (maybe 1-2 inches), so the door is actually open. If you are't worried about bugs and don't mind a draft, then go right ahead. :-)
