Blower parts
This product is okay. Put the pieces together and I could not get them apart. Was going to return, but they charge a 50% restocking fee. Really? That’s ridiculous.

Gutter Cleaning Kit is Fabulous
This gutter cleaning kit along with the blower unit works wonderful…had all my gutters cleaned 1/2 – 45 minutes max.

Works fine.
Cleaned the leaves, left the ladder in shed:>). Easy to put together after adding little lite oil to threaded ends. Shoulder sling really helps. Saves time and energy, no ladder and no climbing. Get one.

Too heavy for me after assembly
After I assembled it and fit it to my Toro blower it was too awkward to handle and hold onto the blower at the same time. Had to hire somebody to blow out the gutters using it and it seems to work OK for him because he was younger and stronger.

Works great
Using this on Toro 60v blower and it works great. Takes some effort to thread the flexible sections on. Ratchet strap holds the tubes on the blower. The threaded tube sections are tight: no issues with air leakage or coming lose at highest air speed. Itâs a workout to hold it up but so much easier than getting a ladder out. I get a lot of leaves and pine needles and Iâm hopeful using this a couple time of month will keep me ahead of the game. Note: for non Toro blowers it came with four different flanges to use.

Good tool, lots of flaws.
This tool was designed to fit my toro electric leaf blower/vacuum. It does that well. There are some design flaws.1. Starting with the flexible tube, getting that tight was a real effort and it has come loose twice. (Thinking of adding some screws. ).2. The strap slips off the handle constantly, so I will need to sort that out with something different.3. When using the full length extension, the tube can be very heavy, especially when used at high speed.4. It takes a while to get used to distributing the weight of the blower unit and which side to hang it from. I hang it over my neck and shoulder as I canât get it to stay just on the shoulder. Wind direction definitely comes into play and protective eyewear is a must.It does the job and looks like it will last for years , but it does take some getting used to

Better than falling off a ladder.
The Toro Universal Gutter Cleaning Kit was exactly what I needed to get the leaves out of my gutters. I used the four extension pieces and the curved top piece. They went together rather easy. Having a two story house it wasn’t quite long enough to reach my gutters. I took a piece of 2″ PVC and slipped it into my leaf blower and duct taped it to make it secure. I did the same thing with the item, this gave me the few extra feet that I needed. I know it was a little hacked but it worked. The kit comes with a few adapters that are well made but I didn’t use them. All in all I was able to clean my gutters from the ground so I feel like it was money well spent.

Does not fit a lot of blowers
The product does not fit many blowers- I have a standard connection tube on the end of the blower that will not fit the Toro extensions. I have 3 blowers won’t fit any of them.Sorry for the lousy review but I just spent 1hr trying every way possible to connect.John
