Purchased two attic turbines arrived at my local Home Depot sooner than expected. They were easy to install and r working great. I would purchase these again and highly recommend them to others considering to install turbines.

Arrived with its base plate bent in the box but it was fixable. Otherwise it is in working condition. Doesn't really seem to help much with removing hot air from the attic.

Extremely easy to install and started working immediately to suck out the hot air in my attic. Best decision I have made in awhile!!! Highly recommend. We used 3 for an 1150sf home. A little over kill according to the recommendations but with these, more isn't going to hurt anything. They look good also!!

Easy installation and quiet. It sure would be nice to be able to purchase ONLY the cap, not have to pay twice as much for the whole unit since the bottom portion was not needed.

According to their website the only difference between external and internal bracing is the additional metal for the external (meaning it's stronger). This product can be a challenge to get level, but once it's there, you caulk and forget about it, for life. I put it over a roof that had almost no other venting and I can tell a difference!

The whirlybird was easy to install I used it to replace the old one that had worn out. The new construction is much better than the old one and was turning right away. I recommend the external frame it is much stronger than the internal type.

    This item came in two pieces, the turbine and flashing. I only needed the turbine. It fit perfectly and was easy to install. It may be a good idea to sell only the turbine.

    This item is built much better than the one which was previously installed. The upper bearing (a real bearing) makes the unit a more quite operating unit. Can not go wrong buying this item.

    I bought this to replaced a turbine that had 'locked up' and came off roof. Does not rotate as straight and even as I had hoped, otherwise, seems okay.
