Very attractive product. First day following installation we had a torrential downpour and the new gutters performed beautifully! Thank you for creating such a great product and having such a friendly and professional installation crew!
In certain applications water is allowed to flow over the edge of the gutter and is impossible to avoid. Also, Pine needles get caught in the screens and build up, causing water to flow over. During the fall, the screens require cleaning several times per month, defeating the purpose of having a gutter protection system installed.
I just checked out the leaf blaster after it has been up for two weeks. It is working perfect. Even the smallest little seed looking things are on top of the guard I'm not in the gutter. Amazing. AND not a single leaf is even sitting on top of the guard.
It is nice to have gutter guards to keep the pine needles out of my gutters. I'm happy that the owner of Acclaim Contracting (Brent Swanson) told me about the LeafBlaster Gutter Guards. I have a large pine tree in my yard that drops a lot of needles on my roof. Now I won't have to clean my gutters.
Grit sloughing off the new Asphalt Shingles clogs the mesh, causing over-run and staining on the front of the gutters. This requires extra maintenance initially, until the new shingles "wash off." The Brush should help keep the mesh clear.
I waited a long time to find a gutter guard I want to use. I am very happy with the quality of the installation and LeafBlaster Pro. A week after the LeafBlaster Pro was installed we had a major storm with 70 mph winds. My gutter guards kept the debris out of the gutters so I had no gutter problems causing water problems. They even keep out the pine needles from my neighbor's tree.
Experiencing our first rainfall since installation and the product is performing as I had hoped. I observed the installation and was impressed by the material used and by the process of screwing the gutter guards to my gutters.

12-3-20 I just had my LeafBlaster Pro gutter guards installed and they look great. We get a lot of rain in my area (about 60 inches per year) and when it rains, it rains hard. I will see how they handle the debris from the trees around my house along with the rain, then I'll come back and update my review.

7-5-21 Went through our first winter with the LeafBlaster Pro gutter guards and they did great! We only received about 25 inches of rain last winter/spring (instead of usual 60 inches), but the gutter guards allowed water to flow through the gutter system during the heaviest of rainfalls, and never poured over the top and off the roof. I don't expect any issues if we get our normal 60 inches of rain this coming winter, but if there are, then I will update my review again.
The LeafBlaster system has only been installed for a week, and it has not rained or snowed, so I cannot really speak to how it will work. We live in a pine forest, so we are hopeful it will filter out both leaves and pine needles.
I had a plastic product before the LeafBlaster Pro installation, and had continuing problems with the weight of the leaves overwhelming the product and filling the gutters. This product has definitely stopped that issue. While I will still have to blow my roof off, the gutters are clean and the water flows as it should.
Answer: White pine needles do penetrate through the screen and get stuck.
Answer: Yes, but you can bend them and attach to the fascia instead of going under the shingles.
Answer: The only comparable product that I am aware of is Leaf Filter, which is outrageous in price! LeafBlaster is a MUCH better value than Leaf Filter.
Answer: I saw his employee at a neighbors and saw the excellent work he did.
