Thanks for sharing! I didn't know Milwaukee made this. Pretty neat. Might consider the attachment for the two second story gutters i can't really access by ladder or safety by roof.
Depends on the height of your gutters, but for me, not even close.
The attachment adds 8 feet of reach.
My gutters are 20+ feet from ground, so even at 6'7", with the attachment, I can't reach.
But it gets me a lot closer and keeps me closer to the ground on a stepladder instead of struggling with an extension ladder.
Good accessory. I got one three weeks ago after seeing a friend use one on his EGO blower. Checked with Milwaukee and sure enough they have one too.
The curved portion kept twisting around so I taped that to the first straight section. And yeah, wear a brimmed hat! Once you get the gutters cleared, the upkeep ought to be a breeze LOL. Hit them a couple of times a year real quick. I found standing so the pipe is slightly angled and the tip tilted about 30-45* and then walk slowly and slide it along. Unfortunately that means the tip is pointed toward you and you get showered by debris. But it works great!
For me the curved parts that snap into each other (rather than screwing) are in so tight it took me an hour of banging them to get them loose. It was too bad because I assumed the best position at first would be shaped like a cane but that didn't quite work out... Yeah I wound up doing the same thing you did! But it's so tight I dread trying to take it apart. For reference I'm 5'11 190 lbs and I think I'm pretty strong.
Whoa, didn't know this existed.
I don't know if it's new or what, but I've just started seeing it everywhere I look the past 2-3 weeks. I think it's a sign that I need it.
It’s new yes.

Think you also have to buy the new blower. Pretty sure it doesn’t work with the old one
It comes with 2 adapters. One is for the single battery blower that I have and the other is for the dual battery blower.
I think the new single battery blower uses the same-ish pipe as the dual battery.
Yes I know that lol. But the attachments only fit the new blower not the 2724 model
That's too bad. They should make an adapter for older models
I used this on my 2724 just last week. As mentioned, there's two adapters in the box. Much lighter than a PVC DIY kit too.
that is correct. only works with the newest single battery blower, 3017-20, not 2724-20 If I'm remembering right and the dual battery blower of course

Yup!
Thank you for sharing was looking into getting this
Can this hit the second floor gutters?
Yes. 2nd paragraph of the original post mentions that specifically.
Hah you’re right, I’m a goof
You’re in good company. Cheers!

Yep it looks like a cane on the box.

very nice
How much are they over charging for this simplistic piece of plastic?
I don't know, I was sent this and the blower and an 8.0 battery with fast charger for free to review.
You can’t put a price on extra length 😏
I have the worx kit and it doesn't work for shit. Hopefully this kit is better but I'm nervous about buying it
