Sabary 5 Pcs Water Barrier 5 ft x 6.5 inch Absorbent Flood Barriers Home Sandless Sand Bags for Flooding Reusable Water Absorber Snake for Rain Hurricane Garage Basement Door (Black)

These gel bags did exactly what we needed them to do, BLOCK and ABSORB rain water! We couldn't be more satisfied. We used them in 2023 then dried them out for several weeks in the sun. We packed them away in our garage and pulled them out for our rainy 2024 winter months. Again they absorbed and blocked water where we needed them around our yards. The ones that are fully expanded were located in the most flooded areas. Only 2 of the bags, out of 10 bags, did not fully expand on year 2. We just kept the gel on half of the side to use as a barricade. They worked so well I bought 10 more bags for my dad's yard and he also had success with all 10 gel bags on year 1. We fully recommend these useful Gel Bags.

I had just received my item and a storm hit I was so happy to have these sandless, absorbent bags but must say my beach towels held more water and blocked more then these bags. Not only did they not hold much but they were leaking some kind of gel out of their seams. I think the ad is misleading these would be good for a small leak in your house certainly not for garage door or anything outside during a storm they do not lay flat even stretched out so water also go underneath. I totally wasted my money. Now we will see how long it takes to dry they are very slimy to handle so they are laying on the ground to dry.

My basement has been leaking and since i cannot afford to repair it right now, i bought these. Im so glad i bought them. They really absorbed the water! Im very happy i purchased these 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I kind of laughed when I received these. They seem to be made out of material similar to budget weed block and felt like there was only about one cup of sand-like material inside each 6ft long bag. I immediately thought these things were a joke. However, after soaking them with a hose, some sort of witchcraft happened. They all eventually expanded to an unexpected…girth. When activated, each weighed about 15 pounds. The product on the inside tends to not expand throughout the bag evenly, with some sections seemingly being completely flat, however you can use your hand or foot to easily move material to the empty spots. I used these to identify the location of a roof leak, part flat roof, part angeled roof that I was previously unable to identify and they worked well for that. Only critical thoughts are 1) they seem to be more for light water protection. If you need to keep a lot of water out of an area, these might not be for you. 2). When dry, the product on the inside is dusty and when initially handling them, you’ll get some clouds of dust coming out of them, but whatever.

I got these in the interim while I was waiting to have a French drain put in my basement. Although it soaked up water it did not keep water from still going underneath and around the sides. Not sure it was worth the money and I'm glad I tried it but would not highly recommend for anyone. Really needing to keep water from coming in your house.

These are amazing and easy to use. Within 5-8 mins it was swelled up after absorbing the water.

About once a year after a really heavy rain, our 80 year old basement will get a few trails of water that seeps through the bottom of the wall. We put these down early in the season so we'd be prepared when it happened. Minimal absorption of water, did not stem the flow at all. These are not reusable. Once you let them dry out, they no longer absorb.

Absolute waste of money. Comepletely trash. It’s just empty fabric. Doesn’t absorb anything. False advertisement

I’ve bought a few of these and they do help stop the water flow into our garage.

I have a wall that needs to be excavated in my basement and until we save up to fix it, when it rains or when theres snow, this absorbing snake thinggy seriously works and they say it’s reusable!!! Love it thanks
