The house we purchased only had about 3 inches of insulation, and our summer electric bill was about $400/mo. Upon install, we noticed an immediate difference in the indoor temperature and how often the AC unit was turning on. Now, with colder weather kicking in, the house sits at 74 with the outdoor temp at 47, and the heater rarely turns on. Our bill this past month was $114 vs the $189 it was when we moved in. Given that we bought this as a Special Buy of the Day, we got it at 40% off and this will pay for itself in about a year. The insulation quality and packaging is excellent. Once the bundle is cut open, it expands to its full dept quickly. If, like me, you're doing the install yourself, make sure to have a helper because each bundle is fairly heavy and bulky for one person to safely get up into the attic. I'd also recommend the ($10) Grip-Rite Stone Wool Insulation Knife because it cut through this insulation like butter and was priceless for this job.

The product is great but getting the product was extremely challenging. You can only order this product in bulk and seems to be back ordered all the time. Your 3rd party delivery service is Awful. Not the actual driver but the people booking (canceling and no-showing).

Just in time for that crazy cold weather we had a couple weeks ago. The price was right and delivery was great too. Thanks again Home Depot of Brunswick. A great place to shop and very knowledgeable employees from start to finish.

This was exactly what I needed to insulate my attic; Home Depot got my order here in a timely fashion. This was a great overall experience; I would highly recommend this R38 insulation for attic use.

Purchased this for the ceiling in my pole barn. The precut batts made installation a breeze. Now the garage area stays nice and warm with little to no heat loss through the ceiling.

I installed over old 6-8 inches of blown insulation. It definitely helps to hold a more consistent temp on our second floor. No more kids complaining about it being too hot to sleep :)
