  • Thank you. I thought I was going to have a heart attack trying to figure this out. It's going to be easy to complete now. THANK YOU AGAIN for simplifying it.
  • This video came in perfect timing, and exactly what I needed. I have been running to and fro HD, for different dryer vent parts. OMG... almost list my mind. I have the semi rigid dryer duct, and may need to get a new one, since the old one hasn't been changed since I bought this house. Struggling on how to connect the semi rigid dryer duct to the outside vent pipe. The 3 snips was the magical word. THANK YOU!!!!!!

    Best part for me: 1:08 I struggled for a half hour trying to get that hose over the stupid pipe. The 3-slit technique and I was done in a few minutes. Thank you!

    Man, nice video. Straightforward, easy to follow. Many of the other videos out there on the same subject aren't very helpful at all.

    Thank you for this awesome tutorial. I also have a very tight space between the dryer and the wall and looked all over YouTube for a solution when I came upon this video. Thanks again!!!!

    I saw a You Tube video that shows how to do this, as well. This one is way better because he actually knows what he’s doing. He also makes it very easy to follow with step-by-step instructions and does it all in less than 3 minutes. The other tutorial video took 13.5 minutes. He struggled with every single step of the process, like it was his very first time doing it! I half expected him to say “Now, make sure you have a professional do this. You don’t want to burn your house down.” Dude, it’s not rocket science! He should’ve titled his video “Do as I say, not as I do” or “Dryer vent hose replacement for dummies.....like me.” I am 67 years old and don’t know anything about anything. I don’t have the money to pay somebody to do this. But, I think I can actually do this myself! Thanks so much!

    Nicely done. Hit the important stuff while making it concise enough didn't have to spend more time then necessary watching

    Thanks! Got new washer & dryer installed today, instead of cutting and installing new flex-metal vent pipe, they used existing cheaper pipe, and smashed it up to the vent to make it fit. So now it's a DIY project for me.
  • I've never had any problem connecting the vent pipe. My problem is getting out from behind the washer and dryer once the connection is made.
  • Thank you so much for your easy to follow video. Your pacing and visuals were perfect. This explained exactly what I needed to do with the confusing kit that I ordered. Looks like I could have bought these parts off the shelf if I had discovered your video first.
