Easy to install & the logical design makes sense and WORKS at allowing roof water into the gutters while keeping debris & leaves out ~ ALSO looks good !

It works till it plugs up.
The water goes into the gutter until it plugs up with small debris. Large leaves goes over. I modified the guards by putting a two inch strip of aluminum window screen, glued with silicone on the top and overhanging just past the edge of the gutter. The water still goes into the gutter but the small debris flows over the screen. Now I am happy with the result and the price.

    Install not easy at all. Trying to get bottom gutter guard tab under inner gutter lip is very difficult. Had to slide gutter guard from the very end of the gutter to the right position.

    They don't interlock to keep each panel together. Not sure how it will perform

    Product is very easy to install. It does a very good job of keeping out pine needles which other guards don't. Also works great on leaves. The fiberglass? netting can be easily damaged by falling branches but the product is inexpensive and easy to replace a damaged piece.

      Not that easy to install. I haven't had rain so I don't know how well it works. I did see some of the basswood tree seeds in the drain slots.

      I have no problems with the concept used in creating this gutter guard. Nonetheless, on certain gutters it is difficult to utilize because of shapes and gutter holders. Originally, I thought I could use this guard above the gutter supports, but I quickly learned that I couldn’t, and I would have to make various cuts to allow the gutter guard to be useful. It is just another step in a time consuming process.

      Does not work on 14-12 pitch roof
      Says it fits up to a 14-12 pitch roof, but that proved to be too steep for the produce to function properly. About 1/3 of the water ran straight off the roof. I would suspect it works great on a flatter roof.

        The lip that clips under the edge of the gutter was too short. I had to screw them down to secure them. Other Amerimax solid cover guards I ordered from other vendors had a longer lip that locked under the gutter edge and did not require and drilling or the use if screws.

        Too early to tell, but not sure how these will perform, especially during a heavy rain. While the water is supposed to travel the curve of the gutter cover and enter the gutter, it appears that with heavy rain, the weight/force of the water will just spill over the cover and onto the ground, causing water to saturate the ground around your foundation. A slow steady stream will enter the holes in the gutter cover as advertised, as the holes can handle the amount of water, but in a downpour, it doesn't seem logical that it can handle that much water. Would possible re-rate the covers once we see how they perform under heavier rain.

        Easy for my neighbor to install. He has them on his gutters and feels they work well. They are keeping my multitude of leaves out and that all that matters.
