They were easy to install and look great. Also they served their purpose by pushing the water dripping from my roof up to 2-3 inches away from the foundation. I added a bed of pea gravel for extra drainage and peace of mind.

Worked out well. I had ordered 50’ before and it was not quite enough to finish the Jobe. Had to order one more and it came quickly.

It didn't work for me. I believe that the roof is too large. It is at least 30 foot long. I think that volume of water is too high.

Worked perfectly for my application (10x20 shed), low profile, no leaves to clean out of , and directs the water away from foundation. I could see them not being the best choice in certain applications where water needs to be channeled farther away foundation, or in flooded / high rain areas, but for some applications they work great.

They work great for what I needed. My gazebo roof was angled toward a door. By using the rain handlers I was able to cause the water to run away from the door and just make the rain become more rain drops and not water gushing off the roof.

Very good product. Diverts a single vertical drip line into a scatter of droplets and therefore protects surfaces below from erosion. There will still be some minor erosion directly below, but much less than without the product. Overall this is an excellent and relatively inexpensive product that holds up well and is easy to install if you are comfortable with a drill and a ladder.

I could see right away that the 6 inch width of this thing wouldn't catch the rain flow off my patio roof here in the Pacific Northwest. Plus, it looked like the "Rainhandler" would disperse the rain onto the concrete pavers that are eroding due to excessive rainfall flowing over my K-style gutters. Returned this ineffective thing and spent time, $ and energy to make a gutter that works out of 6" PVC cut in half.

I really wanted this to work, but it doesn’t really do much. It deflects the water a little, but not enough to prevent an obvious line of soil erosion.

Have yet to install it, but my initial impression is that it is made from very thin gauge aluminum and is likely to be easily damaged. Ask me again in a couple of months. The concept is excellent, however.

Easy to install. Definitely did what it was supposed to do. It keeps the rain from digging a trench in my yard along my house and splashing mud up onto the walls. Very satisfied.

Work very well with one tip
Works better than expected. Key is to keep it further down from roof edge. I moved mine from originally 4 inches to now 6 inches lower than edge. You would think it's better close to the edge, but incorrect. The water dripping off the edge needs distance to fall before hitting the diverter. Nice to see water spraying on lawn instead of down a spout into a puddle.
