Pros & Cons
Pros
The damper works fine and is very quiet. Used for an overhead stove vent system.
The vent is a square shape, so it's easy to make a cutout on the shingles. The only downside is that the * could probably be a bit wider.
Cons
The aluminum damper is quite flimsy. The uphill seam on this are not soldered or sealed. The vent flap doesn't seat firmly on the body of the vent cap.
Two of the four corners bent due to poor packaging. Total garbage. Completely useless. It isn't worth the hassle.
The finish is good and is the only outstanding feature. The alternative is just as nice but a lot more robust and modular.

Competitiveness
The best deal after searching everywhere lowe’s home depot and other hardware stores
Yes you need to buy this vent and not the other offbrands or cheap ones
If these are just going to be slapped on your roof and not carefully checked then id buy the more expensive brand or cross your... Read More
There is another brand that uses stronger steel and better manufacturing but it costs twice as much

The only reason its not 5 stars is i couldnt find an aluminum version which i prefer because my home is on the coast and i try to avoid steel whenever possible

As i mentioned earlier the 634 and 634m are pretty much the exact same cap except this on has a 634 collar built in and the other has like an 834 opening that will allow several different duct sizes
