While this is a little awkward to maneuver it does a nice job. It pushed a lot of debris from my gutters quickly. Definitely wear eye protection and plan on getting dirty from falling leaves. I would recommend this attachment.

Solid connections, no need to tape over to stabilize. A little problem to keep strap on shoulder-have to think how without constant shifting.

Cleared some stretches of gutter, but isn't really powerful enough to blow pine needles all the way out of the gutter. I mainly ended up with dense bunches of needles where the nails attach the gutter to the house. Will help in a pinch, but is no substitute for crawling around on the roof.

It works well , but needs to have two more long tubes because homes with plants it’s hard to get the muck out with out covered.

Works as advertised. My gutters were filled with rotten wet leaves and the broken down sediment. Took a few passes but eventually cleared out. The bent end piece comes loose so will duct tape that onto one of the sections permanently. No big deal. Prepare to get really dirty. As it does work, the crud flies all over you, so safety glasses and rain gear are a good option. Its still hard work but keeps you off the ladder. Now for the second story, I could barely reach the gutters, and I'm 6 feet. Its a stretch and I ended up using a short step ladder. I bought the Toro corded blower as well. I feel like it paid for itself after the first use.

It does a great job on leaves in the gutter, pine straw is a little harder since it does not have the wind resistance that leaves have. Over all it did a great job and kept me off the ladder, thanks for another great product.

Blower or Vac?
Is there anyway to configure this attachment as a vac vs a blower?

    The gutter kit worked very well for our gutters. We have very old gutters with lots of ties to the roof so sliding under them was a bit tricky, however the leaves blew out well. I would recommend.

    Very disappointed. Not powerful enough, even with high-velocity blower. Very difficult to control; hard on the shoulders. The word "cumbersome" comes to mind. Extremely overpriced for what it is - a few plastic tubes. I returned it after the maiden voyage. Not as advertised.

    Our gutter cleaning kit maximizes airflow through the entire tubes and direct debris forward. If you do not believe they are powerful enough, please check on your Blower to see if it is properly functioning. We provide a strap to place on your shoulders if you do not wish to carry it with your hands. 93% of customers recommend this Gutter Cleaning Kit so we’d love to help you in operating the kit if you need more assistance. You can call us at 888-384-9939. We are hoping to hear from you! Toro

    It does work well and as expected. The only "con" I see, the end that points into the gutters is wide and points down into the gutter. I wonder if it would work better if the end was angled and more narrow. As it is now, debris is blown straight up, some debris was falling on me. Some was falling on the roof, sliding back into the gutter. If the end was angled, blowing debris out the way I'm walking. I was a little leary if it would maintain sufficient power. Power level is good, there is kickback, more than expected. I m happy with it. Much safer than climbing a latter, trying to reach into the gutter. Ear and eye protection are a definite requirement.

    This kit is for cleaning gutters without the use of a ladder. The tubes must be inserted snugly into each other to reach the desired length. With that being said, we’d love to know more about your experience and how it was too “wably”. Please reach out to us whenever you have the time. Thanks! Toro

    Such a Time Saver - Love It!
    I'm an old guy with bad knees and a bad back and ladders are the bane of my existence. I bought this kit for my leaf blower and now I never have to go up and down the ladder to clean my gutters anymore (a 3x a season job). What used to take me several hours is now done in 30 minutes. Sure it's a little heavy and you have to learn how to use it but once you do - WOW! I heartily recommend this product.

        The plastic piping does not fit my leaf blower. I had to use duct tape to be able to use it. It appears that the design is made in such a way that you can’t use an older blower, forcing you to buy a new one.

        The instructions were very lacking. We were able to assemble only with extreme effort. (We put one end a section in ice water, the end we wanted to connect in boiling water and with soap to lubricate and each of us holding an end we were able to assemble. It is probably going to end up ALWAYS put together standing in the corner of the garage. We have not had an opportunity yet to "try" it so we can't comment on whether it even works. No wonder it isn't in the store and must be ordered. I bet it is returned often!!

        This cleaning kit is strategically designed to reach gutters on one-story homes and uneven landscapes.We want to ensure rigid construction is rigid and tightly fitted so there is minimal risk of sections becoming loose. If you need more detailed instructions, you’re always welcome to give us a call at 888-384-9939. Thank you. Toro

        Better than I expected. I only have a 1-story house so 3 sections (plus the curve) is all I require. Does a good job of clearing gutters of debris (leaves & pine needles). Could use a noozle at end to better concentrate/direct the airflow. Wear old clothes, hat, eye protection, & ear-plugs.
