“The inserts themselves are good. My only knock is the shipping time. I understand COVID disrupted things, but it took forever for these to arrive.”

“We were kept well-informed of production delays due to Covid. Our Indows finally arrived well protected but lots of packing materials to recycle including lumber which may be problematic for some people. Our windows are fairly large so installation was somewhat cumbersome, but they fit well. They have definitely decreased the amount of traffic noise we hear and have made our bedroom a much more quiet and peaceful place to sleep. They are expensive but still cheaper than a triple or offset double pane replacement window.”

“After our first summer with Indow inserts in 3 older bay windows in our living room, we are thoroughly impressed with how much they have reduced road noise and improved temperature comfort in the room. Two minor things to be even better would have been a true white frame option and a reusable container for off-season storage.”

“I live on a busy road and purchased these for noise reduction. I am deeply disappointed in the efficacy. I would not recommend this solution and feel like it was a waste of money. Noise reduction was maybe 10-20%. Was told 10-12 week delivery time frame; it took 16 weeks. We’re nearly 2 years into the pandemic - you can figure out how to quote customers by now and not use that as a constant excuse.”

Matt, We appreciate your feedback and are sorry that you are disappointed with the performance. We are surprised at your results, as it does not match the performance reported in both the independent tests and our customer testimonials. We would welcome the chance to discuss your situation and ensure that your inserts are properly fit to maximize noise reduction. You concern about the extended lead times is noted. It has been extremely challenging for the manufacturing sector during the pandemic. This has been especially true for manufacturers who use the materials we use. While we understand that the delays have led to frustration, we have remained committed to doing everything possible to convey vital information to customers and fill orders as fast as possible.

“Please post the following the following review if need: I have 2 bedroom windows. One faces an a cross intersection of a major boulevard and highway. It is fair to say that placing this insert in the noise facing window has eliminated all traffic noise. I am shocked how much of an impact this has had.”

“Definitely worth the price. I live at a busy cross-section, speed limit is 35 mph, cars will usually spin out ,screech their tires and travel in excess of 50 mph. Easiest way to describe the windows performance would be that I no longer hear cars or midsize trucks go by. Screeching tires, vehicles that are modified to make noise are now reduced by about 65% I’m no longer shuttering every time any vehicle blast past my house. I’m able to sleep in this room with my head next to the window without any issue. It is allowed me to be in my living room in peace and without distraction. I would definitely recommend this product fortunately no other windows in the house have this noise problem otherwise I would purchase a second if needed.”

“Bought enough acoustic inserts to cover my entire second floor (open concept) and my main bedroom. A few of the inserts didn't fit as snug as the majority but they seem to be secure. Bedroom (third floor) was a nice improvement. Second floor left a little more to be desired but it was still an improvement than without. I'd guess 35% noise reduction with my double pane windows. I do plan to buy inserts for the remainder of my windows.”

“I ordered my insert on April 28. I was told a 10-week turnaround time, then a 12 week, then 14 weeks. It has now been 15 weeks, and I keep getting told my insert should ship out next week. At this point, I'll believe it when I see it. It is affecting my business. Find another option. Not having a definitive delivery time is not a good way to do business, and you can't keep blaming it on the pandemic.”

“Aside from supply chain challenges driving a 3 month lead time (completely out of your hands, we understand), the process was very easy. Your representative was very informative and helpful, and the self measuring and installation instructions were easy to follow.”

“The order process has been a nightmare. I ordered April 26 and was told to expect about an 8 week turnaround. That quickly slipped to 10-12 and then up to 14. Finally, on July 28 I received an email that my inserts were complete and to expect shipping information within 1-2 business days. It is now August 10 and they have not shipped. Supposedly on top of supply chain delays, they poorly planned a facility move which further delayed orders. I hope I am completely blown away by the product but DO NOT recommend until they can fulfill orders in a timely manner. They also need to reconsider requiring a full deposit at the time of order when delivery times are completely unknown.”

“It was a bit of work to get the window insert into the frame. But it was worth every dime now that I have blocked the excessive noise of a window air conditioner unit from my neighbor. Excellent customer service. Martin is absolutely fantastic with explaining how everything works and helping me with installing the insert. Overall a great experience.”

“I purchased acoustic grade window inserts to help with the absurd levels of noise pollution in my neighborhood. While the noise is still audible, it has been reduced enough that I can hear my computer, phone, and thoughts again. While it may not be as effective as increasing the distance between myself and the source of noise by several zip codes, it makes it so that I am at least able to ignore what noise does come in rather than feel it buzzing in my ears as I'm trying to sleep. I believe Indow has improved my quality of life in my home compared to before I used their product. The insert does what it is supposed to do.”

“I am revising a past review after working with Indow's customer service to handle a communications problem. I am ordering my second pair of inserts, and they work well for the areas promised. They effectively cut out high and mid-range frequencies. On the day I installed the inserts, there was a party across the street with approximately 20 loud children. The noise was completely blocked when I installed the inserts. I've also had a few times when I've been in my office and the neighbor's kids were playing in my yard; can't hear them at all. When I travel to visit my parents and get woken up by a dog barking somewhere in the neighborhood, or an HVAC machine kicking on, I think about the inserts because I'm positive they would block that sound. On low-range frequencies: the inserts aren't so great at blocking these. I was really hoping they would be, but not solidly expecting it. Low wavelengths are extremely difficult to block. I live by a noisy road with a steep hill. The high pitch swish of traffic gets blocked out, but low motor noises and engine sounds do not. I've found noise-cancelling headphones to be effective in this case. If you are buying these to block low pitched sounds, do your due diligence - you might not get much benefit from these (or much else, to be honest). But other sounds - dogs barking, the swish of a freeway half a mile away, etc - I think you'll be pleased. There was a communications issue on my last order, but it was promptly resolved.”
