The barrier underlayment was easy to use. Rolled it out before laying laminate planks. I used a plank to hold each end otherwise it would roll back together again. Instructions says to staple it to the wall to prevent that from happening but using a plank worked fine for me. You can also use painters tape as well. Beware that the instructions do say to overlap the barrier by 8 inches. Take that into consideration when calculating how many square footage is needed. My biggest advice is to make sure your subfloor is clean without any debris. Otherwise it will rip a hole in the barrier.

Worked well enough and it was cheaper than most underlayment. It does have a tendency to bunch up and wrinkle. Somehow when we rolled it out and stapled it, it was smooth, but by the time we got to it with the flooring it had expanded and gotten wrinkles.

Very nice product and very easy to work with so the product did meet our expectations. No problems thus far with laying it down before installing hardwood floors. The manufacturer of our hardwood flooring recommended this product in their installation instructions so that's what we went with. Fortunately, our local Home Depot had plenty in stock so no need to purchase them online.

Inexpensive, but effective vapor barrier
Used as an underlayment for installing nail down, tongue and groove bamboo floors. Comes in rolls and cuts easily with scissors.

Response from The ManufacturerJun 29, 2022
Thank you for your feedback. Roberts would like to address your concern and elaborate on the importance crawl space preparation prior to the installation of vapor retarder and flooring. The application of a moisture barrier over the earth and proper venting in the crawlspace is also required. This helps to ensure excess moisture vapor doesn't become trapped/infiltrate the subflooring causing moisture damage.

The barrier was very easy to work with, and the price was good. I don't have a clue how well it will perform, as I am still in the process of putting it down, but there is nothing to indicate that it won't be just fine.
