Final Written Review: I give this product 5 stars because it is a marvelous voyage into the world of Xbox customization. I have arthritis in my hands and I wanted to make the controller more comfortable and easier to grip. According to some web sources , arthritis can affect your grip strength and cause pain and stiffness in your fingers and thumbs. A weaker grip can make it hard to hold on to objects and perform daily activities. To make the handles, I used toilet paper rolls, duct tape, and this product. I taped the rolls to the controller handles to extend and enlarge them. Then I cut a small X on the end of each roll and inserted the straw from the can. I slowly filled the empty space with the product, letting the gas escape. Then I sealed the end with another strip of duct tape. The product worked great. It expanded and filled the rolls perfectly. It also acted as an adhesive and made the handles very solid and stable. They did not wobble or come off. The product was easy to use and did not spill or leak. It dried quickly and smoothly. The result was amazing. The handles felt much more comfortable and ergonomic. They fit my hands better and reduced the pressure on my joints. I could play for longer without feeling any pain or fatigue. My grip was stronger and more confident. I did not have any issues with the product, so I did not need to contact customer support. But I read some reviews from other customers who said they were helpful and responsive. That alone is worth giving them two stars, don’t you think? But seriously, after reviewing other posts and their comments concerning customer support, I am confident they earned it. They seem to be prompt, courteous, and helpful whenever someone has a query or a problem with the product. They also follow up with their customers to make sure they are happy with their purchase and to offer them some tips and advice on how to use the product properly. They show a genuine interest and care for their customers and their satisfaction, and I appreciate their professionalism and kindness. The shipping was fast and free as advertised. The product arrived in excellent condition and was well-packaged and sealed. I had no issues with the delivery or the product’s quality. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who wants to customize their Xbox controller, especially if they have arthritis or other hand problems. It’s a simple and effective way to improve your gaming experience. And it’s also fun and creative. Who knew toilet paper rolls could be so useful? Maybe I should stock up on them, just in case. Thank you for reading my review, and I hope you found it helpful and informative. And to quote a famous explorer, “The sea is everything. It covers seven tenths of the terrestrial globe. Its breath is pure and healthy. It is an immense desert, where man is never lonely, for he feels life stirring on all sides.”

A simple to use quality expanding foam that can be repainted with any color latex paint to match as needed. the foam expansion is nice and slow and doesnt deform panelling it is backfilling. I used some on increasing the efficiency of a half fridge. The curing time is fast only a few hours and cures faster if some water is misted on the foam. the dried foam is easy to trim to any shape you want when cured with just a wood saw or razor blade and looks good when finished. the can had more than i needed and had some extra left over when finished .

This stuff goes on smooth and looks clean. The consistency makes it easy to control, and the smart dispenser helps keep things from getting messy. It covers well and expands just enough to fill gaps without overdoing it. Good adhesion and seals things up tight. Only downside is cleanup can be a little tricky. Overall solid product that gets the job done. the flexibility after its applied is amazing.

Good

Works great. Works so great that I got carried away looking for more cracks around my property to fill. Probably went a bit overboard but my house is pretty good and sealed up right now.

I would initially suggest that you don't take it, use gloves because it sticks to your hands. The product didn't work well for what I wanted, which wasn't a plumbing hole, but it came as described.

Easy to use, but if it’s getting sun, it’s going to turn dark mustard yellow. Not ideal. Did what it was supposed to though.

I’ve used a lot of these “smart dispensers” now and thought I’d share tips for using it. First of all, after using the old straw for years this new smart straw is awesome. I’m not dripping foam all over the place anymore and I honestly can keep using the same can over and over until I’m done with it. (some of my cans have lasted over 30 days by the way, up to a couple of months). Here’s my tips: Make sure you thread the dispenser all the way onto the valve (see my first photo), like to the point where you start turning the valve itself. Do not unwind it! If you unwind it after you’ve started using it, the pressure in the straw might unwind the straw on it’s own and make a mess. Be aware of that! You can break them. It is made of plastic. The weak point is where the moving straw part meets the part that screws onto the valve. (see the spot circled in my other photo) I think another reviewer showed that same location because it was leaking foam there. That’s because it broke there. It only breaks if you put a lot of force on the end of the straw. If you are going to force the straw into a crack, or are going to press hard on the tip, use your other hand to support the end of straw so it doesn’t tweak that weak spot while you're spraying. In order to get the most consistent bead of foam, I’ve found that if I let up on the trigger slowly at the end of each spray I won’t get a gush out of the straw on the next pull. Letting off slowly releases the pressure in the straw so it doesn’t spurt out on the next pull. Hope that helps. I love this smart straw and I can’t believe they didn’t come out with something like this years ago.

Just like I thought it would be if I were to buy at homedepot or home hardware. We needed to fill the plumbing open holes under the sink cabinet to stop aunts from getting in and it did just the trick, although it made a huge mess and is clearly visible that’s just me ! awesome thank you

Handy to have. Good dispenser.

Good for small jobs only due to it's high price and small quantity. I use it mainly to do smaller jobs since it is pricey but it does the job. It is not the greatest solution to isolate, it is just good to hide imperfections. That's all it is good for in my opinion

Very powerful, super sticky, and a great seal.

The attraction to this particular can and model is, I can spray it into cracks higher up without having to invert the can
