Installation Was Easy!
I am giving AM Gutter Guards a 5 so far...The guards are made out of light weight aluminum (they are not "heavy duty" per se) -- and I found each piece to be surprisingly light weight. It is too early to tell about long term durability -- but I live in FL and am not concerned about snow and ice. They install quite easily -- especially if you have good gutters. My gutters were not uniformly 6" -- so at times, I had to bend the back of the guard up with a wrench to get it to fit -- but that wasn't hard either. You need to add supports/braces if the current ones on your gutters are more than 24" or so apart -- as again, the guards are light weight aluminum -- and need to rest on these cross members for strength. This is especially helpful too when you are joining two pieces together -- as when pushing down on your drill, the overlapping piece underneath will sometimes bend down instead of being pierced by the screw (depending on the amount of support you have to keep the thin sheet from bending instead of succumbing to the screw). Once you watch the installation video, corners were really simple. I impressed myself. I also bought the self-piercing screws (that included a drill bit) and was a little annoyed initially at the magnet strength in the bit as I lost a number of screws until I got my technique down. The hardest part of the install was getting my ladder set up around my landscaping to reach the gutter. How will these things work ultimately? I don't know. Time will tell...but I'm 67 and had no problem putting them in...

Not too hard to install
I’m 65 and our gutters are about 20’ up. At my age I’m starting to think that at some point it’ll get harder to get up there to clean gutters. About 2 years ago I installed the cheap rolls of plastic guards. I used zip ties, a lot of which had deteriorated in the sun. Worse, squirrels in our area seem to like the plastic - they nibble ~6” sections out of these cheap guards (maybe they use them in their nests?).So I bought these stainless/aluminum ones to replace the old plastic ones. Note that so far I don’t mind climbing tall ladders & working at these heights. I installed four packs of these gutters in two afternoons (about 5 hours total). Except for three spots where I couldn’t lift the shingles enough to slide the gutters under, installation was reasonably simple. I did get a bit for the screws at my local hardware store. There was no need to pre-drill holes - the screws self-tapped easily. Recommend using the clutch on the drill to avoid over torquing the screws. There’s a review that provides some convoluted way to deal with the ends between each section. I guess if you want to absolutely ensure that nothing will ever slip between the space where two sections meet and want to spend loads of time on the install, that may be ok. Personally I don’t see the need for that, since the overlap between sections takes care of that.In the couple of areas where I couldn’t slide the guard under the roof shingles, I slightly cut the guard just where it hit a nail or the soffit. I did get a new pair of quality tin snips and had no problem cutting the gutters.After two snows so far this season, haven’t seen any issues with ice dams.I’m glad I bought these and saved the money I’d have paid for the ones being hawked on TV.

5+ ⭐️.. excellent quality !
Being surrounded by walnut trees we needed something to keep the debri out of our gutters. Cleaning them 3/4 times or more a year was tiring. My son picked these and him and my grandson got them hung in about an hour. Can’t see them from the street or standing anywhere near. Excellent quality and easy install. Got them delivered in 2 days! Just in time for the weekend to get them done. Everything about them are 5 ⭐️ and more .. Highly Recommend!!

Great all around product
Great product and easy to install. The price was also very reasonable as well. Note , screws are required to install the A-M Gutter Guard Look around on amazon for less expensive and similar quality screws to get the best bang for the dollars spent . I am very pleased with A-M Gutter Guard and would buy it again.
