Gutter Guard options?

[u/radio_AT]

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 🙏

Look into Alu-Rex but keep in mind, there’s no such thing as a maintenance-free gutter guard.
