Worked really well on first rain. Only had a month so can’t say how long will last. Build quality looks good so should last for yrs to come.

Our install was a new outlet port in our 5" steel gutters at the front entrance of our home. We used a gutter adapter to hang the chain from our gutter. The entire assembly doesn't weigh very much, and did not require an additional gutter hanger to support the gutter in the location we chose to hang the chain. We dug a 24" deep x 20"dia hole backfilling 6" with 3/4- gravel. Then placed a 24" deep x 24" circumference plastic pot [$10] filled with a few small concrete chunks and topped 1" round rock. We prior added 6 more 3/4" thru holes to the pot for enhanced drainage. 6hr complete install. tools & materials: plumb bob [$10], 2" bimetal hole saw [$15], rivet gun [$12] +4, 1/8" x 1/4" rivets [$1], gutter sealant calk [$8}, 5gal bucket of 3/4- [$2], 5gal bucket of 1" round rock [$2]. >plus, cost of 8.5' chain and gutter adapter. *weather report says rain for the next three days.

It works beautifully in place of mounting a gutter downspout on a porch metal corner support. My gutter pros suggested it and we picked out a matching pan at the end of the chain. The only modification I had to make was to add a few links of black metal chain due to the height of the gutter above where it attached.

The media could not be loaded. Smaller than anticipated. Water splashes out and not straight through. I didn’t try it with the additional adapter, but it’s extra. I went with another style and it included the adapter up top and a chain w stake for the bottom. It is longer than this one too.

These are wonderful. I’m glad someone else posted a video. They really work. We live in Florida so we get rain. The rain goes perfectly thru the squares. If it’s windy then the water is blown some but so is the rain. Our front porch didn’t get any wetter then it normally did in windy rainy conditions. They took minutes to install. We didn’t get the adapters to install them to our gutter because the adapters were the wrong size but when they arrived they have a V shaped thing at the top that holds the chain in place at the gutter. We just dropped them into the gutter and they were installed. We ordered one extra set to add length to the other three to make an exact size to the ground. We attached the bottom with tap cons into the concrete. We will probably replace our gutters that end on grass with these and use those corkscrews in the grass so they are solid. They are so pretty and make the front of the house so much nicer. Our neighbors even commented how nice our place looked not realizing we did a simple change of the gutters.

Easy to install, but get the adapter
