DIY Dryer Vent Connector Kit - Space Saving, Toolless Design with Airtight Seal - STV-90 by Ziggurat Products

I really like this because it's so easy to install and works so well in a tight space. No squeezing between the washer and dryer, no standing on my head necessary, no tools needed, no dropped screws.

Needed to replace our dryer renting and this adapter made it a breeze. Took less than than 10 minutes to convert from start to finish.

I had a new exhaust event put in on the side of my home, rather than having it running through the roof of my two-story home. The washer and dryer each are 30 inches wide so it left very little room to get behind to clean out the dryer vent hose and when I did it sometimes fell out when going through a few dry cycles. Needless to say with very little room to operate I needed something much more durable that would allow the vent to stay in place. Another product I purchased on Amazon worked, but it didn’t allow a 90 degree turn at the back of the dryer. This product solved all my problems and frustration! It was super easy to put in the foil vent into the housing and the design is genius and simple to keep it from falling out. The Amazon video goes through 4 simple steps: (1) put your existing or new vent hose into the plastic connector, (2) slide the connector into the plastic housing (mine was harder than it looked and I didn’t want to put a hole in the hose so I was careful), (3) slide the rubber seal onto the back of the dryer (make sure the rubber flanged end/stop is facing in the correct direction - check the illustration) and (4) slide the housing on the back of the dryer. Mine was a tight fit, but I know it’s not going anywhere. Now just slide the dryer back to the wall and ensure the housing slightly rests against the wall. The design is perfect and I’m confident the hose is no longer going to fall out. This new setup essentially allows my hose not to kink so I’m also confident the dry cycles will be more efficient and I’ll have less lint buildup in the hose over the same period of time. Overall it took my adult son and me longer to move the dryer out and back so I would say this is an easy DIY project. This particular model didn’t come with a new hose, but they’re relatively cheap. So if you have a plastic hose now would be the time to get an aluminum foil one!
