Pros & Cons
Cons
When the flap closes with backdraft it makes a loud slapping click. It's a bit lightweight and rattles a lot in the wind. Spring is completely useless the flaps occasionally stick open because they are slightly dished.
Highlights
Quality
This vent is terrific and really works well and stops any back drafts
Flap appears to work well so all in all a good product
Plastic appears a little flimsy and the spring doesn’t appear to be adequate
Fairly simple and easy to fit it just slides inside the duct

I wrapped a single layer of gaffer tape round the unit just to make the fit snugger and hold it in place

It does work fine when a draught holds it shut as intended while opening when the fan is used

But in still air the vanes flap about making an annoying tapping sound when the spring needs to be a bit stronger to hold the vanes shut
