Customer Reviews for U.S. TRENCH DRAIN Compact Series 90 Deg. Corner for 3.2 in. D Trench and Channel Drain Systems w/Black Grate

Exactly what I needed to channel rain water across a foot path. Before ot was a muddy mess, now much cleaner! Could be a bit longer, but other than that it works good.

Great quality & easy install

All good , fits together perfectly . The downside is plastic— it won’t rust or corroded , but the heat and cold will cause it to break. I suppose I could get four or five years here in southwest Oklahoma before it breaks . I use it as a trench drain off the eve of our house.

Overall like the idea of this system and the corner piece worked great - locked in, but the “t” - did not…. It was like the mold was off and it never fully connected correctly - kept popping apart we did a few workarounds but we’re hoping that we don’t run into problems with that piece down the line as a result.

Sturdy and good quality product

Thin plastic walls and especially bottom definitely require concrete encasement to retain shape. Functions as required for a short distance.

Pleasantly surprised at how sturdy they are. Only issue was that some snap together and lock easily and others would not snapped "locked" so they would come apart when I moved them (I was trying to place an level a 30 foot run). Used a little Gorilla Glue on the difficult ones and that made working with them easier.

Maybe I ordered the wrong part, was the right size, but it did not snap to the trench drain system trough. I ended up using plastic glue to secure it.

i received the item i ordered with a note that the business thought i may have forgotten to order some parts. they included 2 converters at no charge. i did need converters and had overlooked the male to male connections. it was thoughtful of them to anticipate that and include the parts.

Seems to be well fabricated and worked well,

I shopped a number of sources online and found even the most basic drain grates to be ridiculously expensive, so this one, being under $20, got the job. I ordered two of these and had them shipped to store for pickup. They came well packeaged and were strapped together. However, after cutting the straps, I found that both grates were bowed upward a bit (about 1/2 inch) when viewed from end to end. Not a big deal if they were to be snapped into place in a matching pre-fab trench drain, but I am using these as stand -alone grates in a DIY formed-poured concrete drain. I managed to straighten them out with the help of an industrial heat gun and a bit of weight in the center, so they now lay nice and flat in the trench cut-out. Overall this product seems sturdy and should easily handle many years of light-to-medium foot traffic, so long as it stands up to the solar UV rays of sunny southern CA days.

Well made. Good quality product. Perfect for driveway, sidewalk drain

yes it exceeded my expactations. Very Sturdy.The main recomendation is seal the gaps in between multiple channel pieces. I would buy this product again.

They warped as soon as the temperature got above 70

The vents layed in the trench for one day while I was deciding if I liked them. During that time they cupped up. AZ summers are going to destroy them. So I’m going to return them for metal ones.

Satisfied and successful!

Build quality of main drain component is good. End pieces need calk to stay in place which may reduce timeframe before repair is required.

Great product, easy to install as I am a DIYer
