Pros & Cons
Pros
It is heavier duty than others and has the adjustable door bracket which makes install much more forgiving. Easy to install and adjust.
When cocked open, it holds very nicely, despite winds. Beats the * hydraulic one that didn't last 4 years before it lost its oomph in closing. Works great with little adjustments. My door now closes slowly and fully.
Has withstood the texas heat and humidity admirably. And of course, the godforsaken snowstorm of 2021.
Cons
Piece of junk. Lasted 3 months. Stick with the ones from lowes or home depot. The brown version is not the same brown as the typical larson storm door.
Highlights
Quality
After easy install and minor adjustment works like a charm
Works great and has a great lock
Been screwing around with this screen door that would not automatically shut for 2 years
The oring that creates the airseal in the closer failed on mine after six months which apparently happens very rarely
Price
For the price you cant go wrong and it looks great
This storm door closer is very reasonably priced and easy to install
Any of these door shock absorbers that last a year are still a bargain
Shipping
I received in a very timely manor
Packaging/appearance
The only downside was the brown paint was coming off of it right out of the package
Competitiveness
It was a quick install and is considerably better than the one that came with the high end national manufacturers door
Unfortunately i couldnt replace with the same model beacause i needed in overnight product so the door wouldnt rip off the hinges
I initially i bought a different brand which was replaced by this brand

The length of the cylinder and the hardware are identical to the originals so i just had to drop it into the existing brackets
