Looking to buy R19, 23"W, ~40' roll priced at ~$24. The other pink brand is double.

Anyone have experience with this brand?

While most of my insulation in the shed is cellulose, I did buy some of that stuff for the floor underneath the apartment and in the office ceiling and walls. Was pleasent to work with, not dusty or dirty and not itchy.

I guess that pretty pink color comes with a price.

I used some of it, it was nice not being dusty and itchy like the pink insulation.

Thats all I use now. I gave up on roxul,



Worked great.

It's what I used as a second and third layer in the attic over the cellulose. It worked fine for me.

I've used it without a problem. It's colored the way it is because they use more recycled glass in it (beer bottles!). Who cares about the color, as long as it insulates.

I helped my son install this brand on a remodel on his house last year. Other than it looked different that what we had used in the past, it was easy to work with and install.

I used this brand (R30 unfaced) in the ceiling of the single bay side of my garage that I re-did and it's noticeably warmer than the double bay. I intend to do the same thing on the double bay side.

From time to time, i haul a load of this insulation from their plants. It generally goes to large insulation contractors and they seem well pleased

I'm picking up 9 rolls today. Let the fun begin. Thanks for all the comments.

We have Knauf here, its one of the better brands of fiberglass but all fiberglass is pretty horrible stuff. I have no idea is the product is the same here in Europe verses the USA.
