CAUTION: Misleading description! Barrier is 6 inches wide and 5 ft long and grows to 3.5 inches high when activated. It does NOT raise to 6 inches after activated! Amazing product that works to DIVERT water (see review video), although I would not suggest using it if you have torrential flooding (water flowing 10+ mph at a constant rate). Barrier is activated by water, and can be placed in the needed location either dry (wait for the flooding water to activate the product,), or wet (personally activated by soaking in water for ~5 min, method I used).I am currently using this to block water from flowing into the outside bathroom. The review video shows approx. how much water actually flows through that particular area, and does a very good job blocking that from entering under the bathroom door. Product length is 5 ft, although that was a little long for me, so I attempted an experiment. I measured out the length I needed and chose to soak ONLY THE MEASURED SECTION in the water-filled bucket, and let the rest overhang over the bucket to stay dry... The ending result is in one of the photos provided (with the scrunched-up section), and works PERFECTLY! The dry end never touches water, so it stays in this flat position, and has stayed this way at the time of this review 1 month later. The product is also reusable (allow ALOT of time to dry) and biodegradable, allowing for easy clean ups. In conclusion, I highly recommend this product and will purchase more should anything happen to these.
