We needed a small amount of insulation for a project. We liked the idea of using a product made of recycled jeans - it seems like good stewardship, plus it was nice to avoid the itchiness of fiberglass. It was just what we wanted and expected that it would be. We're very happy with our purchase!
Pros: Performs Well, Easy to Install, Easy to Work With
Cons: a little difficult to cut
Yes, I recommend this product.

I've used the first two without an issue. No itching, holds together better than the cellulose insulation I had been trying to use. The insulation value is good as well. Stopped the cold air leak around my outlets and around the window.
I am about to order more to finish off the basement the way I wanted to. I liked these rolls so much I'm looking into ordering their regular insulation as well (unfortunately I can't get this here... Hint Hint!)
Cuts about like the Cellulose (can be done with a knife), no itch, comfortable to work with. No mask needed, no dust, no little bits dropping off. Also noticed a surprising drop in sound transmitted through the window. I was surprised for how "thin" the material actually is.
Pros: Easy to Use, Easy to Install, Easy to Work With, Great Value, Light Weight
Yes, I recommend this product.

You do not have to wear any special gear to install this insulation. We have a baby and I did not have to worry about where I had it once it was delivered to our house. Absolutely no itching and no reaction. It was easy to tear with my hands when I needed to size it.
I do think that it needs to be available in stores, next to that pink stuff, so that people know there are great options like this.
Pros: Performs Well, Easy to Install, Easy to Work With
Yes, I recommend this product.

I used this to upholster a headboard. It was great, and much more affordable than foam at this thickness. There was a bit of lint, but overall I am extremely pleased at the outcome. Also, I love that this product is so green! Reduce, REUSE, Recycle :)
Yes, I recommend this product.

I thought the rolls I had purchased in the past were wider than these (and perhaps thicker). One roll will not get you very far. Other than that, I'm satisfied so far.

Nice and fluffy, but there's not as much as you think in each roll and once you consider the cost per package, it's really only good for very small projects.
Pros: Easy to Use, Easy to Install, Easy to Work With, Good Size & Weight, Light Weight

I use this for acoustic treatment in recording studios. The cost is good, it performs well and its easy to work with. I also like the "green" aspect of using recycled materials.

This product works for me, because I am allergic to the pink stuff. I find it easy to use; however the one 16" x 48" piece roll is not enough to do anything more than very small areas. Glad to see you can now purchase individual rolls rather than a carton. Really would be nice to purchase locally. The shipping cost was more than the single roll!
Yes, I recommend this product.

I am using this for acoustic dampening in pro audio speaker cabinets. It is great to work with (no itch). However, the price per roll is equal to that of shipping which makes it costly to order online (unless you need bulk). Next time I might get the 6-pack.
Yes, I recommend this product.

works as advertised. I cut a few sections and used it to insulate around my window ac unit. Sections easily tore off and I used small pieces to fill the gaps. Great product, wasn't itchy and is environmentally safer than traditional insulation. Good sound and weather insulation.

I had a problem with noise between two rooms. I removed the drywall on one side, added a second set of studs & gap, to mechanically separate the walls, added this insulation, reinstalled the drywall, now noise level is greatly reduced.
Will buy more and do the same thing on another wall.
Pros: Easy to Use, Easy to Install, Easy to Work With, Great Value, Economical

I've ordered several products from Home Depot-on line, and am very much satisfied with all the products received and the packaging was superb! The Denim insulation is a fantastic product, earth friendly and no concerns about instillation as there is with fiberglass insulation. I highly recommend it for anyone who is looking for insulation to tuck into small areas!
Pros: Easy to Use, Easy to Install, Easy to Work With, Seals Well, Great Value, High Quality, Economical, Reliable

I used this material on the recommendation of my coworker (he's an NVH engineer in the auto industry) as a sound deadener in my RV-- it works phenomenally well. The amount of noise that it absorbs is amazing, my vehicle went from annoyingly loud to Lexus quiet.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I like this stuff. It's great for filling small holes or gaps where you want more insulation. I don't wear gloves when I handle it and it doesn't bother me. Just pay attention to the size when you're ordering it. It's not really all that large.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This blocked the cold air from entering and I'm told that it's safe to handle. It certainly seemed so, so it was a good choice.
