          Sturdy
          This is a nice and sturdy channel drain system I am currently using it at the front entrance of my truck's hangar to channel rainfall. Due to the nature of my project, I have it encased in a concrete cradle, and it has been working beautifully to support the weight of my truck. The assembly process was very simple and straightforward. I particularly appreciate the flexibility to channel water through the cut-outs at the bottom to 3-4 inch underground pipes. Additionally, the removable flat grates offer access to make cleaning easy. Overall, it is an aesthetically appealing product with a solid and practical design.

            My 1938 driveway has a single 3" drain grate. Just a couple of leaves would clog it, causing rainwater to enter my garage. As part of replacing the rotted garage doors, I decided to install a better drain system
            by
            Very easy to assemble and looks great! Better quality than other drains grates we have used before. Will definitely suggest this product moving forward.
            by
            Excellent overall compared to past experiences with other channel drains. Be sure to slide the grate into ideal position for interlocking sections before installing--some grates were real sticky, requiring rubber mallet. The interlocking mechanism for sections can be fussy and could be made more robust (larger dimensions). The feature of "Anti-float design eliminates the need for rebar anchoring” may be true, but I would have liked holes or notches for rebar or stakes (two at each end for each side) so I could stabilize the assembly, say against an existing curb, as I put it all together before final filling.
            by
            Product worked out well but would have been easier to install if I had better instructions. Should have used the adapter to start with the end cap on the high side. If so each additional section ( 11 sections for my project) would have slipped in male to female as I moved down the trench. As it turned out I had to lift the section just installed to insert it’s male end into the female end of the next section.

            Perfect for what I needed. An easy to install drain along the side of my house next to the Pool Filter. This will help carry away the water when cleaning the filter elements. Everything fit well together, it is well made, and should last along time.

            I used the Grates on my deck where my eaves drip to allow the water to pass through instead of splashing up on the side of the house. Perfect fit, replaced the first row of deck boards. Wish I would have had these when I put the deck in. Should eliminate replacing clapboards every few years.

            Good for walkways but not stout enough for automobile traffic. It only has provisions for being cut at eight inch intervals. Turning a corner when not being able to cut on the eight inch provision molded into the drain trench to be connected with the provided snap half ring means that the two pieces float rather than connect together. Good for straight line drain usage.
