Poor design

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the universal gutter cleaning kit along with a new battery power blower hoping the pair would work together. Unfortunately, they don't. You have to hold the blower with one hand and the extension with the other hand. This: 1) reduces the extension 2) makes it unsafe to work from a ladder 3) makes it harder to control as you are using one hand to control the long nozzle which has the mechanical advantage and offset thrust. What it needs is a part that goes inside (and matches) the blower's nozzle and screws into the attachment to make a firmer fit. This can be done when you manufacture both.
Pros: Convenient, Environmentally Safe
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello PatW.
We are sorry to hear of the issue you have experienced. We would like to go over how to attach the kit to your blower. Attaching the kit to your blower. This kit is compatible with blowers of an opening of up to five inches. To secure this assembly you must first remove the blower tube press the release button and slide the tube off. Slide the canvas sleeve over the opening of your blower to tighten the strap. Guide the strap through the tightening mechanism and pull it tight repeatedly, lifting the lock lever will tighten the strap. Repeat this motion until the strap is secure ensure the sleeve is threaded onto the first tube. To release the strap press, down on the release tabs on both sides and pull the strap back through the mechanism. We have a video here showing how to attach the gutter cleaning kit.

Please have your blower and the gutter kit with you along with the model and serial number to complete trouble shooting to ensure quick resolution is provided. We are happy to help you better.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Please revise this offering by adding a solid plastic attachment that makes a secure, stable fit to a Greenworks blower, instead of providing only the universal adapter, which is not stable. As you can see from the other reviews, Greenworks blower owners want a way to have an exact-fit, solid, stable attachment to their blowers.

Assembling and Operating your Universal Gutter Cleaning Kit (https://youtu.be/AiITraJhFLI)
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just recieved this item and already not a fan. I put the adapter on ratcheted it down as best it would go, however it popped off 3 times. I am gonna give it more time, if it happens all the time I'm just gonna shelve it. I like my greenworks products, but this isn't the best solution.

Sorry I have to be honest it is not useful accessory

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a long time customer blower, mower, string trimmer, edger, power washer with rotary brush accessory, everything 80 violts and I am a Greenworks tools evangelist. But I have to be honest this is not a useful accessory. We own single level ranch new roof and extra wide gutters. I thought accessory would keep me off roof and ladder hook it up walk around house blowing out leaves from gutters. Sorry. The attachment wobbles where attaches to blower hard to control, the narrow tubrvis counter intuitive as it creates back pressure in the blower and actually blows less air stream. The leaves bunch up and catch on the gutter braces. In the end back to ladder and holding the blower without attachment.

I bought this thinking I could get to my high gutters without getting off a ladder. I bought it a few months before I needed it This is the most unstable product and when I tried to return it I was told I could not.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The sleeve that connects the extension to the blower is a poor, fabric design that causes the blower to be unstable and hard to handle. I mentioned to the representative I have a two story house yet she still sold me the product even though it can only work on a single story. Additional extensions cannot be purchased separately, so one has to buy a complete extra set for a two story house. The gutter cleaning extension set is a poor design that I wouldn’t recommend.

I bought this about six weeks ago in conjunction with a new Greenworks leaf blower. It is useless, simple as that. Unfortunately, I waited to use it until I needed to clean the gutter and apparently now it is no longer eligible to be returned. The stability problem that many negative reviews mention is a big problem, but even worse is that a tight hose attachment is impossible, so you lose 60-70% of your blowing power.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
