WORX WA4092 Gutter Cleaning Kit for WORX Leaf Blowers with up to a 5” Inches Tube

Wasn’t sure how effective this would actually be. Took a chance and it’s absolutely great! Would definitely recommend to anyone.

Bought to help clean my gutters. It works but is hard to get a good snug fit on the attachments.

How does anyone like this item?1. The universal adapter didn't work with my WORX GT. Worst design of a blower/vac ever but it was a gift so...2. The universal adapter popped off once when I used it on my Mom's Toro blower(too smooth a nozzle I guess). The adapter really needs a bump or rough area on your blowers nozzle to keep it on as the crappy plastic ratchet tie it comes with sucks. I tried to tighten as best I could but the cheapness of the rachet won't allow you to tighten it very tight. It'll just strip the gears and pop back to a loosened position it prefers.3. After about 5min of use the universal adapter broke. The part that holds the tube to the fabric had a super thin zip tie holding things together that looked to have just popped off. No easy way to fix so I returned the whole thing. Seriously...5min of use. Looked like a pretty drastic design flaw that I'm not sure how it doesn't happen to everyone who tries it.4. The nozzle that goes into the gutter is so terrible designed it amazes me. The damn thing blows all the leaves, dirt, water, debris... right back into your face no matter how you hold the blower. The tip needs to have a more of a spiral twist to allow it to blow down the length of the gutter..not a 170 degree blowing straight down and back at you. I believe it is a simple bend so they can save on shipping and fit it in a skinny box. Any twist/spiral they'd have to package it into a larger box costing them more.5. It just didn't work. Maybe if I had a more powerful blower it might but I got to the end of the gutter and stuff just gets wedged into the corner and not actually blown out. I think I'm going to try a shop vacuum next with a similar attachment and just suck the debris out. $41 for plastic pipes that don't work gets me half way to a 16gallon wet/dry vac with a gutter attachment.6. Unless you have a backpack blower or a shoulder strap to hold your electric blower this won't work. You need both hands to hold the gutter tube and guide/angle it. I was trying to hold the tube in one hand and hold my blower up with the other and it was too much. Plus my blower had a 2ft nozzle on it that I couldn't take off. then you have the universal adapter that bends as it's only cloth so I had a hard time keeping the nozzle straight inline with the pipe.Overall I'm shocked at how poor a design this is and how it had 250 reviews at 3.5stars...

Ok, first of all some of the reviewers here need to actually read the directions. The universal sock tube is NOT designed to fit over the tapered end of the plastic pipe that connects to your blower. The instructions specifically state that the universal adapter is to be placed over the blower OUTLET. The ILLUSTRATION clearly shows that the plastic pipe that is normally attached to the blower is to be taken OFF. In other words remove the one or two piece plastic blower pipe from the blower and attach the universal sock tube directly to the blower outlet that is right next to the main body of the blower itself. If you do this, it fits snuggly and does not come off.As for the twisting, once again, read the directions. The pipe that attaches to the universal sock adapter actually has a twisting coupler built into it. Once everything is attached, in order to get the elbow to point the right direction simply twist the coupler at the first extension pipe next to the adapter. This is necessary since the elbow and each piece of tubing do not just push together but instead screw together and then lock in place. The coupler allows you to twist the first piece of tubing and get the elbow pointed where you want it. If you do this the sock adapter won't twist and tear. You may need to re-adjust the elbow from time to time depending on the job. The only way you will twist the sock adapter and tear it is if you don't like to take care of your equipment, never look at how it is designed, or use it like a gorilla would.Finally I have a Makita BHX2500CA Commercial Grade 4-Stroke 24.5cc Handheld Blower and the sock tube attaches securely. The plastic piping is in my opinion grade A and not "flimsy" at all. With all four extensions connected, the piping does not flex, bend or bow when it is raised to the gutters. I have used it on my gutters without issue, even blows wet leaves and water out (watch out you will be a mess when you are done!) As far as the elbow coming off, I have no idea how the one reviewer managed to cause the elbow to come off? Does he bang the thing on a wall first or maybe he has a 600 mph blower? As far as using the system, holding the blower with one hand and the extension with the other can be tiring. It is tough to hold the extension down when my Makita is at full speed, but it can be done. Overall I think this is a great product that works perfectly. It is sturdy and well designed. Truly universal as well!
