EBaokuup8 Pack Gutter Downsport Guards - 3.5 Inch Expandable Aluminium Filter Strainer, Gutter Downspout Protectors for Preventing Blockage Leaves Debri

Easy to install and great fit.

I bought these because I got sick of snaking the gutter downspouts to clear the leaves in it.In California, the rain only comes during a certain time of the year, typically November to April. And come November, just before the first rains hit, I'm on the roof clearing the gutters and snaking the downspouts, which are usually clogged. This time, after the rainy season, I will put these over the downspout opening in the gutter. I'm using this as a way to block the leaves from getting into the downspout from May to October.Then just before the rain comes, I will go up on the roof, blow the leaves and debris out of the gutters with a blower. Then remove these guards and so the drains won't clog up from any new leaves when it rains. After it stops raining in the spring, I will reinstall these.

Tough metal that will do the job to keep out the S. Florida iguanas. Great product, good value. Thank you!

These items are very well made and strong. They can be folded into a small size to easily fit in any downspout. I would recommend these to anyone.

These did not work for me as the square opening had screws to hold the downspout in place. If I unscrewed everything and bent it, it might work. However, I’m not going to undo/redo four screws per spout all around my roof. I’ll pay more for a better solution.

Just what I ordered and arrived on time!

I put one of these in a downspout to test it out in May. We had an afternoon storm blow through with some heavy wind that blew some green leaves off trees. The next morning we had another pretty heavy rain and the gutter that had this screen in it was overflowing on the ground. During the rain, I climbed up to investigate and found the screen was completely stopped up allowing no water to drain in the downspout. I pulled out the screen and the water immediately drained into the downspout. So, the product itself works to keep leaves and debris out of the downspout BUT it basically stops up the gutter. I think in the fall, it would become stopped up daily.

worked fine

Basic design that should help leaves and seeds from getting stuck in the eaves drain. I suspect that this too will get plugged as these small obstructions have no place to go. Time will tell. Easy to install and adaptable to many sizes.

This was a good purchase and easy to fit. Hopefully it will stop leaves going down the drain pipe.
