A reader describes a product that allows the homeowner to clean their gutters from the ground using a wet/dry vacuum. This sounds really interesting. We need to research this and find out what it looks like, how it attaches, etc. Thanks for the tip!
After over 20 years of cleaning my rain gutters, I’ve finally found the perfect method of keeping them clean without the use of a dangerous ladder.
I got a brand new, American Made, lightweight attachment tool, that should fit most standard 2.5″ wet/dry vacuum hoses. It is a one-piece, 60″ long, durable, pvc tool that fastens snugly onto the vac hose. When I put it into the rain gutter and turn my vac on, it literally vacuumed out all gutter debris, wet and dry junk, while I stayed firmly and safely on the ground. I saved myself money, time, energy, and most of all my own safety while doing a once nasty job that now is almost fun to do. This new rain gutter cleaning tool has been hailed as “the Best Gutter Cleaning Tool on the Market Today” and in my opinion it really is everything that other customers have said about it and more.. Check it out on their webpage and read all the comments and watch their videos and see why I’m so pleased with my find! C.J.
We found a picture of what this product might look like:
Looks unwieldy! And that's not a normal wet/dry vac.
There are attachment kits for single-story homes, but the thing pictured above appears to be a commercial product built for the task. And even then, it still looks a little crazy.

The picture above is NOT the Gutter Clutter Buster that I purchased and told you about! The picture above is one of a “commercial gutter cleaner” that costs hundreds of dollars to purchase!
If you go to the webpage I suggested, from which I purchased and recommended, you will see that it’s NOT the one in the picture above. My Gutter Clutter Buster Kit consisted of a one-piece, 60″ gutter cleaning tool and two (2) 54″ extensions and it only cost me $59.99 plus shipping. They also had additional 54″ extensions to go as high as the gentleman has in the picture above.
Please, when you do your research on my recommended tool remember to “compare apples with apples.” My tool is strong, fits together tightly, and easy to handle.
I hope I have clarified any misunderstanding you may have about the Gutter Clutter Buster being “unwieldy” and you do connect the GCB directly to any standard 21/2″ shop vac hose, as I indicated earlier. Thank you for correcting the image you have shown incorrectly!
It appears, from my experience that everything stated on the Gutter Clutter Buster website, is true! And, I am very happy and satisfied with my tool.

Hiya C.J.
Looking back, we can’t find any link in your previously submitted comment regarding the gutter cleaning vacuum tool. So we had to Google it a bit ourselves and find something that seemed similar based upon your text description. We appreciate your clarifying comment.
Our lackeys have been to the website you suggested, and the photo used in our post accurately represents the product being described in your previous comment. This amazing “invention” appears to be nothing more than a curved black tube… extremely similar to the one that had previously been “invented” in the photo we referenced.
And, although completely unfounded, your comment set off our patented Shill Detector(tm). You appear to be in Sarasota, FL, which also just happens to be the location of the Gutter Clutter Buster business. You are most likely friend or family, or otherwise an impartial judge of a product that appears to be a glorified plastic tube. But then again, maybe you are just an excited user of this fine American Made product. Readers should be the judge of that.
We will admit, however, that the product could actually prove quite useful! Our resident gutter experts are considering placing an order even though the business owner invokes the name of the Great Sky Fairy to sell his product. How can he be sure it wasn’t Buddha, Zeus, or Wotan that provided the inspiration for this amazing invention?
But we completely and utterly digress. We apologize and thank you for the comment!
Got my company a great new method of cleaning out our rain gutters. It is called a Gutter Clutter Buster and can be reviewed at http://www.GutserClutterButter.com and it is even better than advertised. It keeps our guys safe on the ground and they don’t have to drag ladders around all day. It cleans gutters in half the time while keeping everyone and everything cleaner. It vacuums out all debris, packed in pine needles, pine straw, decaying wet leaves, insects, twigs, sand, roof gravel and stagnant water. What’s not to like about this great method of cleaning out rain gutters. We highly recommend this product for those who want to add it to their cleaning services and also the DIY home owners who want to save money on cleaning services. Check it out for yourselves. We did and are extremely impressed!
I also purchased the Gutter Clutter Buster and was disappointed with it. I wrote a fairly thorough review that you can see here.

Hey Samuraidog,
Sounds like you have a problem with that Rigid shopvac. Doesn’t sound like its running properly or perhaps your shop vac hose is blocked or the vac canister inlet is blocked!
And, of all the reports, reviews, and comments I have read you seem to be the only individual who has had problems with the “suction” of leaves with this tool. You do realize, I hope that the tool operates as a conduit to take leaves from the gutter to the shop vac.
The tool works only as well and efficiently as the shop vac attached to it.
I am curious as to whether you might be a “competitor” of the company. Just curious…..hummmmmmm.
The company claims a patent on the GCB. Therefore, any “competitor” would have to license the product or be liable for patent infringement.
Sounds like Anne is trying to discredit a customer.
