Summary: Dissatisfied
Comment: I am really unhappy with this product. My goal was to clean the gutters without climbing up high on an extension ladder. This item seemed to fit the bill, but it did not. I read in a couple of reviews that you will get dirty. That was fine with me. But I was not prepared to have huge chunks of muck hit me in the face. Safety goggles were not nearly enough protection for my eyes. I also just expected that the waste from the gutter would be blown out of the gutter to the ground. I didn't expect a significant amount of waste from the gutter to be blown up onto the roof behind the gutter. Seems obvious that would happen in hindsight, but I didn't realize it would happen. And worst of all, I was not able to complete the task. Because of a slight slope in my property, I was not able to reach some of the gutters with this attachment with my 8 foot stepladder. I had pre-measured and, at first, it seemed a feasible reach from the top rung. But I didn't realize that there would be enough torque to make it too unsafe to be standing on the top rung. So, this experiment was a total disaster. For those who might want to benefit from my mistake, I found that the "Gutter Sense" tool was a successful solution. With the "Gutter Sense," I also had to buy a suitably long extension pole and add some rope (so I could reach the second story gutters) - now the gutters get clean and I don't climb on any ladders at all.

Summary: Great Gutter Cleaner
Comment: This is a great product. The tubes screw together very firmly. There is enough tubes in the kit to do a two story house gutters easily. Also works great with shop vac if you do not want to use leaf blower.

Summary: Something that Works
Comment: The gutter cleaning blower attachment really does work. You'll get dirty using it, but it does clean out the gutters effectively. Since I don't have a Weed Eater blower, I had to work a little harder to get the device to stay in place on the blower, but it wasn't that hard. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Works Great
Comment: This mates with my Black & Decker Leaf Hog blower with a little maneuvering of the parts. I had to fasten the non screwed connections with sheet metal screws to keep them from blowing apart. It kept me off the roof this year.

Summary: Come on, think about it.
Comment: For all of the customers who have had trouble getting this to fit, there is a secret. This is a Weedeater product and it fits all Weedeater blowers. The only accessory I know of that will fit all blowers of every manufacturer is an extension cord. If you have a Toro or something other than Weedeater brand do not expect this to fit.
Mine has worked great for cleaning out gutters, I do recommend you wear a hat, old clothes and safety glasses as you may experience falling wet leaves.
