5I found the solution to the lose fit of the "Twin Draft Guard"!  May 22, 2008 By puffandstuffandthings
I left this review in a few places (comment sections).
I found the solution to the lose fit of the "Twin Draft Guard"!!!
I was having the same problem as a few others about the sloppy fit of this item.

Solution: I went to Lowes and bought one ¾ inch PVC pipe insulation FOAM.
This foam is of the stiff kind (while holding the middle of the foam insulation, both ends should stick out. If when holding the foam insulation both ends flop down, then you've got the wrong foam insulation.) and should cost no more than a $1.30.
Make sure you get the uncut version of this pipe insulation foam. This foam is a bit wider than the foam that comes with the "Twin Draft Guard" (TDG).

One side of the foam insulation slipped into the TDG reasonable but the other side I had to massage it in (a little difficult). That alone made it go from a sloppy fit to a nice snug-to-tight fit.

Now, to stop it from sliding off the door when I open the door between the hallway and room... I put a thumbtack at the very end of the TDG under the door.

Perfect! It's now snug and doesn't slide off the door when opening or closing the door.
Hopefully this will help others.

2Not great for older doors or doors with large drafts  Jan 15, 2007 By Aimee E. Flinn "Lister"
Although the draft guard does block some of the draft, it doesn't block it entirely. The guard isn't snug under the door and tends to require repositioning. I was also less than impressed with the "technology"- two rolls of foam tucked into some cheap fabric. Filling an old pair of nylons/pantyhose with rice and tying the ends worked better and was far cheaper. Stick to the cute draft guards/blockers with snowmen or moose you can get cheap after Christmas.

1Useless unless it fits *JUST* right  Jan 12, 2008 By JMinSF
This item is useless. I imagine it *might* work if my door were precisely wide enough to fill the channel created by the cloth cover, which *might* possibly cinch the two styrofoam sides of the doorguard flush with the door. But since my door isn't wide enough to fill that channel, the installed DraftGuard rides above the gap in the doorframe, which of course defeats its purpose. (See my photo in the Photo Gallery)

Further, the styrofoam tube is bent into a circl for mailing, and once installed the styrofoam naturally curves upward, away from the gap between the door and the frame, again defeating the purpose.

Finally: My guess is that there's around 40-50 cents worth of material in this item. Think twice before you buy this item.

HOWEVER, I'm pleased to report that "Get Organized" (the Amazon merchant that sells this item) promptly issued me a refund.

5Fits Standard Doors Perfectly  Dec 26, 2006 By Rebecca Johnson "The Rebecca Review"
If you are looking for a way to keep your house warmer in the winter or cooler in the summer, this is a good solution that will quickly remedy the problem of drafts under the front door. It may also help in windy rainstorms where water is likely to find its way under the door. Within a day after putting this under the front door, I noticed the house staying much warmer and now my home is cozy warm. If you have a standard size front door, this should fit with no adaptations. If you have any problems with this fitting, all you do it resize the foam inside and instructions are included.

1Does not work well unless it is used on a door that is never opened  Feb 25, 2008 By K. Reams
TWIN DRAFT GUARDAlthough the Draft Guard has to be made of thin material so the door can open and close, it is made rather cheaply, and the foam on either side should be filled with dried beans or something that is heavy that is shapeable instead of the foam. The problem is that this product does not fit most doors. Once you get it slid under the door, it is too loose under the door and a lot of air still gets in. Unless you go outside and pull the foam that faces the outdoors tight, so the foam that is inside the house is pulled tight up against the inside of the door, it will not block any cold or warm air from getting in. And each time the door is used, this has to be done again, which means you have to use another door to walk outside the house, pull it tight again, and then go inside the house using the same different door, otherwise the Draft Guard moves again once you used the door and has to be rearranged again. So, basically, unless you plan to use this on a door that is never opened or closed, the product is worthless.
