Greenworks UNIVERSAL GUTTER CLEANING KIT

I read lots of reviews before purchasing this. I had a homemade version out of pvc pipe I used on my old shop vac but I wanted something with a bit more power as the shop vac version took forever. First off, I am female, 100 lbs, 5' tall. I have a 1.5 story house so, my gutters are fairly tall.As others have said, it IS difficult to hold. I was already expecting that because the homemade one I had did the same thing. And yes, you are going to find it difficult to how the blower and this at the same time because the attachment is cloth and flexes, so you would normally have to to hold the blower in one hand, and this in the other, and when you turn on the leaf blower there is going to be kickback on this tube, so you do really need both hands to hold this.I had an old purse strap (I plan to get a better one lol, this is just what I had laying around) and I put it through the handle of the leaf blower so I could put the blower over my shoulder like a "purse", that freed up both hands to hold onto the tube which made things MUCH MUCH easier. I had first tried using a cart like others mentioned but that became cumbersome rather quickly.The other thing people had mentioned was the cloth attachment blowing off the leaf blower. I had seen a few pictures online where people tried to attach this to the nozzle of the leaf blower, instead of DIRECTLY to the leaf blower itself. I attached mine to the blower directly, and it never came off.Yes, it can unscrew as your working, again I expected that as I ran into issues with that with my homemade version. However, its not like it does it all the time. When you put this together, sometimes it feels like it has been screwed in all the way, but if you don't hear or feel a "click" its probably not. It has little tabs on it that are kinda like locking tabs, they aren't fool proof and it can work its way loose but, I only had that happen once while working.All in all I am very happy with purchase. We have a big house and steep roof (and I hate heights lol) once I figured out how to work this thing where I could hold it an the leaf blower at same time, I was done with the gutters in 15 min.I personally wouldn't recommend using it while your on a ladder. I suppose it may not be too hard for a strong man to manage but for older ones or women I think this thing has too much kickback to safely use while on a ladder. I also started of with it to get the feel for it with the lower setting on the leaf blower. But as I got used to it, I was able to use it with the leaf blower on high. I am not a very strong person at all, so if I can manage this thing I think the average person could.

I knew when I saw the box size that it probably was not going to work this is puny in comparison to normal leaf blower attachments and it disappointed. I still put it together and to see how it would perform it was floppy at the point where it hooks up via the cloth bag to the leaf blower itself. I could have lived with this and made some sort of an attachment that would support the blower attachment so it didn't flop around however just trying to clear a recently cleaned gutter with a few leaves in it and the leaves didn't even blow out. I brought it down and tested it with my hand and it's probably blowing it maybe 40 miles an hour which is not enough to actually remove any debris. This is very disappointing, this is too small of an attachment. For comparison sake I was attaching it to a 40 volt Ryobi battery operated blower which has plenty of CFM but the small size of the tube is restricting the flow

Works good but a little hard to hold will all extensions on. Skirt could be made stiffer but all things considered, works fine

It worked as advertised. With all the attachments on it was the perfect length to reach my gutters.Used in combination with a Ryobi 40V blower.The blower is a bit large and heavy so holding blower with one hand and the tubes with the other is a bit clunky and tiring. Also depending on how strong your blower is, you may get a kick when the air is blowing to close to the gutter.I've neglected my gutters the last couple of years. We recently had 30+ days of no rain so everything was pretty dry. I was able to blow a lot of debris out of my gutters.If you have a tall house and would need more attachments than what came with it, it can be too much to handle.This wouldn't be a bad two person job. One person hold and operate the blower if you have a larger heavy blower and the other focus on holding and aiming the tubes.

The idea of this product is sound. But there are several problems that make it unusable causing me to return it:1. It is to difficult to use effectively by holding the leaf blower in one hand, and controlling the extension tube in the other. I don't have the muscular strength and stamina in my hand and arm to do it for very long. For one thing, there is recoil from the exhausting air at the top that you have to push against. The weight of the tube is another. But the primary problem is that it takes time, patience and skill to hold and move the tube along the gutter to effectively get the leaves out. You really need 2 hands and arms to do this, with somebody else holding the leaf blower. Alternatively, some kind of rig could be used to hold the blower, I suppose.2. Fully extended, the tube cannot reach a full-height 2nd story gutter. I was only able to reach the gutter in the front of my 2-story high ranch house where part of the first floor is below ground.

I bought this to do the rain gutter in my shop that has 13’ walls and I’m getting up there in age and didn’t want to use the ladder.Worked like a champ. Also used it on my house since you can adjust the length.I used a cordless leaf blower but next time I am going to try my backpack gas powered.

I have a Greenworks 40V blower and got this to try and clean my gutters. Such a disappointment. The ad pictures make it look so easy to hold but it's not. It's flimsy, wobbles, and the loose baggy part that you tighten onto your blower does not stay. At all. You're fighting with it before you even get a chance to hit the trigger.

Easy to assemble and worked better than expected.

They worked great, no more ladder, instead stay on solid ground and blow them out.I bought two kits, to reach more than 15 Feet up. Very satisfied, payed for themselves in one application. Will be used again in the fall. Before paid a cleaning company more than $200 each time, they would not always show up due to poor weather. Now I'm laughing all the way....(.

This product did not live up to my expectations for a Greenworks product. The "sock" connector may make it "universal" but it affected the rigidity of the combo and how easy it was to use. Easier than standing on a ladder and scooping out the gutter but could be much better. I would recommend getting something that works for your specific blower.

good service and fast, I will use it to clean my gutters with it.

This worked fine on dry gutters with a small to moderate amount of material using my Greenworks 40V blower. When the material is wet or there is a lot of it (or both!), it's not as effective and requires many, many passes. To manage my gutters properly with this I think I will need to use it at least once every 2 months after the initial cleaning.

Much too hard to use. Product returned. Good idea but a waste of money. Used once then returned. Trying to hold an 11 foot tube with air blowing thru proved to be impossible. There is no stability in the product with it being anchored with a canvas shroud on one end.
