Customer Reviews for VEVOR Drainage Trench Driveway Channel Drain Kit Plastic Grate-5.8

I saw them on tiktok, tiktok was spying on me because I get floods when it rains hard so they free recommended it to me. No videos on tiktok ever showed anyone installing it, it was just people who received it and had it in their hands showing it off. No measurements, nothing. I ordered them, they arrived, I went to the hardware store to find the pipe to put it all together. Nothing fits. Went to various hardware stores, nope! Finally called vevor to see WTF was going on with their product. They said: "Oh, its because its metric in size not standard " then why are you selling them then?! I can find any metric size pipe here. You'd think if a big company like vevor wants to sell their products all over the globe they would make one hole metric and the other one standard! Nope!! Both are metric. Its lame. Its a waste of my time. A hurricane is building up in the Gulf of America and I shojkd of had this finished and done by now! If it floods,im suing vevor for incompetence!

No está bien especificado las medidas del drain pues exponen unas medidas y cuando llegan no coinciden mi proyecto fue un total fracaso es la primera ves que sufro una decepción con vevor además me puse en contacto con costume service para alguna posible devolución del producto y me dijeron que probara poner otras medidas de los tubos

There is no way to adapt these grates to an existing or new drain pipe. Great product but the current cut outs on the bottom of the grate doesn’t fit any existing drain sold in big box stores. So I made my own with my 3D cutter. Vevor should offer this or I can ship them out to the 85% of the customers that will need one. LOL Slides into the channel nicely and I made it thicker so it fits better than the existing stock option.

The trench system appeared to be good quality. The problem was the sizing, they need to have a narrow size available. It is a pretty large trench grating at 5 1/2 inches wide. I was looking for more around 3 -4, so I did not use.

Initially, these seemed like very good units and were priced competitively. But after using them and going through a wet season, I found they have a serious design flaw that limits their effectiveness. The slots are quite far apart…much further than others I have on my property. As a result, a considerable amount of water simply by-passes the slots and never enter the drain. This limits the effectiveness of the drains significantly. If the amount of water is “casual” this may not be an issue, but for the intended usage I had it compromises their use. I have had new grates made that work well and as would be expected. I would not buy these in the future as a result of this flaw….others I looked at have the slots much closer together.

We just opened it up and 4 of the grates are broken. We should have opened it up sooner, but still disappointing.

There is no way to lock a drain, end cap, or extension to these! I had to get creative with self tapping screws and silicone. Will get the job done though

couldnt handle traffic load but def great for the sides of driveways anywhere normal traffic doesn't cross

Missing end pieces
