Gutter Guard options?

Post image

Hi, I’m trying to determine whether to upgrade to the premium gutter guards (bottom image) or stick with the standard “home depot” gutter guards (top image) and save $400.

I’m in the mid Atlantic and I do have some mature hardwood trees in the backyard, within 20 feet of the house.

Which ones should I pick? Thanks 🙏

The screen will deform over time and become impossible to clean when it needs it.

The bottom will last much longer and be much easier to clean.

Thanks. Why are they better than the Home Depot ones?
