    Great vent set up. With the swiveling joints it makes it very easy to install.

    How to cause a fire with improper dryer venting

    Poor installation. The service installed a vertical loop with the semi-rigid vent which is problematic. It can could cause lint to settle and eventually cause a fire. Could also stop the dryer to function according to the manual The old vent went straight true ( approx 8 inches long) . No need for this. You need to provide better training to the service team. I paid $30 for this and it was worthless and dangerous. I expect to get refund for this

    The kit comes with what you need to hook up your dryer vent. The fasteners were difficult to tighten. It helps to have a second person helping.

    The silver vent connection is too stiff and wrinkled when connected to the machine and air vent which causes the machine to register an air vent error.

    I'd give them zero stars if I could. Best Buy (BB) sold me a box of used parts covered in lint and old tape still attached. I called BB and they refused to let me talk to a manager. They connected me to a woman in India who barely spoke English. Terrible customer service.

    When the Best Buy installers installed our dryer, they bent the vent so much that it collapsed in one section and therefore it will not vent. Very disappointed in the quality of this vent and the quality of the installation.

    Purchased and had dryer installed but tech put old hose on frim existing dryer. Where is our refund for the one we purchased? The dryer vent man who did our vents put one on because the old one installer put on was too short for new dryer.

    Horrible, once bent, cannot be bent back. The installers pushed my dryer back and crushed it. I had to go out and buy a whole brand new one.

    The Smart Choice Semi-Rigid Dryer Vent from Best Buy is exactly what I needed for my laundry setup. The semi-rigid design strikes a great balance—flexible enough to navigate around corners and tight spaces, but sturdy enough to resist crushing or kinks that can block airflow. Installation was straightforward. The vent connected securely to both my dryer and the wall outlet with no gaps or leaks. I appreciated the durable metal construction, which feels much safer and longer-lasting compared to flimsy plastic alternatives. Since installing it, my dryer runs more efficiently with better airflow, and I feel confident it helps reduce fire hazards. Overall, this is a solid, reliable vent at a good price. Highly recommend if you want a quality dryer vent that’s both flexible and durable.
