Product Description
· This product adds a great value · Product is highly durable and very easy to use · This product is manufactured in China · If you want to open your windows in the warmer months, you'll need to take it off.

Easy to install but be careful removing the tape. I was tryna to readjust the tape and my wall paint came off.

This product was so easy to install and looks great. You can barely tell the plastic is there. It also immediately helped the drafts and temperatures in the house immensely. We did get a package where 3 of the plastic sheets were cut too short but Frost King's customer service was extremely efficient (they responded within a few hours) and they are sending a replacement. Highly recommend and worth the price.

The Frost King V73H Shrink Film Window Kit works well for sealing drafty windows and improving insulation. The clear film is easy to apply with the included tape and shrinks tightly with a hairdryer, providing a clean, transparent finish. It noticeably reduces drafts, but the tape can be tricky on uneven surfaces, and you may need extra kits for larger windows. Overall, it’s an effective and budget-friendly solution for cold weather. 4/5 Stars

Moved into a new house recently and when winter rolled around, I noticed a window would let cold air into the house especially on windy days. I didn't have time to reseal the windows so got this given the price and it works really well. Its a night and day difference. It was a bit awkward to install if you are doing it by yourself, but its easily doable. However, it has fully sealed the window and stopped cold air from coming in.

Have been using these shrink window kits for years. Follow directions for easy placement on the window! Yes they work! Yes, you need to use a hairdryer to make it all look good and helps the tape stick better. Easy off when you wish to open your window in the spring!

The plastic rips very easily. Ripped 3 times doing 5 windows, which doesn't inspire confidence for how well it will hold up. Also the tape unstuck in a few places with in days of installation. Shrinkage was uneven. I can admit there might have been so user error, but over all I just think there are better brands

Other brands tape will not hold up when it gets cold defeating the purpose when it lets loose. Frost King's tape is wider and holds all winter.

The product is an absolute joke. I have few windows that still need replaced and bought this in hopes that it would at least help a little in the winter months. After cleaning off the windows, I removed the blinds and attempted to place the double-sided tape on the window, which was an absolute nightmare because it is barely adhesive. I gave it a chance thinking the heat would help once I put the thin layer of film up. I don’t know how they can call this any type of insulation though, because it’s barely as thick as the cling-wrap I have in my kitchen. After placing this dreadful product on the window, I used a heat gun to tightly stretch the flimsily film and remove the wrinkles. However, the lowest setting of heat put a hole in the cheap plastic film, which defeats the entire purpose of this. After removing this and the tape, I made another attempt. This time I kept the heat gun further away, but this did not stretch the film. After multiple attempts, I was unable to use the product as advertised. The weak film would either rip or not stretch and the double-sided tape could barely hold itself on the window. This is one of the worst products I have ever attempted to use, and the company should be embarrassed to put this on the market. I have two boxes of this imitation insulator kit that are going in the garbage. Thank you, Frost King, for wasting my time and stealing $34.76 from me.

The tape was not great at first but after putting everything together and using the blowdryer it's been well sealed for a couple of days now

Il telo rimane molle e non si tende, nemmeno con il phon al massimo e a distanza ravvicinata.
