This little baby packs a punch for the price (just over 30 bucks). I'm comparing it to an old Craftsman blower that recently died after about 15 years. So far I've used it four times kzfaq.infoUgkx9IdbewMd3eOaX3SS_kV4wC73v6yWG2KY and it's done an excellent job. It's light, and it moves leaves and debris very well. It's a little shorter than the craftsman, but it's fairly easy to manage. I don't ever use the front grip (requiring both hands). If I did, it would increase the distance between the blower and the debris, or it would require me to bend over awkwardly. I'm 6' 3", so I just hold it (since it's light enough) with one hand down at my side and it's a perfect fit. It's also back-heavy, making it easy to maneuver up/down/left/right motions of the blower end. As a final perk, I can actually appreciate the safety cord lock feature, since my other blower's lack of a decent one caused my power cord connector to start falling apart, due to all of the pulling, etc. If you're not ready to spend 200 - 400 on a gas leaf blower, and you don't mind messing with a cord 2 to 4 times a month, then this thing is for you.

Very good for those who have a fear of heights & those who are elderly or cannot climb! Thank you!

Glad you can appreciate this. It is also important to let your kids to watch you while you are doing it, so that they may become a little smarter gradually.

I like your time management skills, instead of spending time (and money) going to a doctor's office, we better use that time doing things safely. what a wise man!

I love your careful, meticulous style of teaching, definitely subscribing, and I love that you do your work in such a neat , patient way, and handsome clothes! My little one floor house is very accessible but gutters still a pain, so I will def do the pvc routine.

I used your paint roller cam before and after cleaning my gutters (on 2 story house). I could easily see clogged areas and that they were freed. THANKS!!!!

Great idea about the phone camera! I will try it tomorrow. I have rigged up an air hose through a 3/4" PVC pipe to a "T", capped on one end and a 1/8" hole on the other end. I connect to my compressor and it blows the stuff out. I do need to put a ball valve at the handle to stop the air vs shutting down the compressor. Now I'll use the camera to see where I need to use the hose. One more step to make it easy and safe! Thanks so much!

Thanks for the idea! I made my own ABS pipe (with 2- 45 degree fittings) gutter cleaner--it worked great! Blob of stuff cleaned right out and I didn't have to try putting up a 15' ladder by myself.

Your hose-in-a-pipe is absolutely BRILLIANT, yay and THANK YOU!! Seriously extremely clever!

Thank you very much for your video. It worked. Since I was banned from climbing onto the roof by my family, I had to opt to other ways from the ground. Luckily I got a used 16 ft long pole for $5 from a pawn shop and I used two paint paint roller frames;one for camera to video record the status of the gutter and the other one with a fork made from a hanger wire to push down the leaves which were clogging ( covering ) the entry for the downspout. I had to add and extension wood and taped it to the roller frame so the fork reaches to the entry of the spout. I worked well for my situation. Thanks again.

Came to your channel to review your car idle video, and saw this video, which reminded me about my clogged gutter. 5 mins this morning with a paint roller and an extention pole, and my gutter is flowing nicely. Thanks Asian Fix It Dad!

Excellent video, as I don't have the money to hire someone to clean my gutters and since I am older climbing a ladder is not an option.

This is hilarious I love this guy! You don't want to fall then you have to Dr. and pay a copay🤣 But he's right hehe

This was VERY helpful! I never would have thought of using a camera to see what was up there! You are a genius! I am going to try these tips next time the gutter gets clogged! Thank you!

man, you ARE a genius ! I am thinking of cleaning my gutter (2 storey building) - but have no idea how to get up there... (and i am mildly afraid of height)... that's a great tool !

Love the part about Avoiding Pain and Suffering as well as the Doctor's Co-pay'.....great video!

You are MacGyver! you deserve more channel subscribers, but I think maybe your taichi videos should be on another channel but that is just my own opinion. It is so satisfying to solve problems like you show. it is proper use of intelligence.

Not that I got any new ideas...we have mostly flat roof at our house, but I loved the video. The host is awesome. Seriously, CorgLLC for President. Imagine the money our government would save. I have actually seen my neighbor build similar tools for gutter cleaning, so these are inventive, and good tips to use.

Hi, I used your PVC pipe with the hose inside on some particularly hard to reach 2nd story gutters and it worked a treat. thanks for your video. :)

That two inch abs pipe with the elbow is a fantastic idea. Thanks so much for your video . Great idea re the camera. I have a boat and will do this when working on my motor.

I like your ideas. So brilliant! Very helpful. We can save a lot of money now.

This was lovely. I just bought the special telescopic thingie to clean the gutters. Not so ingenious, but the gutter is clean and I am not injured. Still, loved the video.

I just cleaned my gutters last weekend. I never thought about the camera on a pole trick! Nice one.

Thanks for sharing your ingenuity and resourcefulness.

Clever, useful and fun! Thank you for sharing your ingenuity and for having a good sense of humor! Looking forward to more!

i plan to do this cleanout method next week. looks easy and safe. thanks

A lot of good and simple ideas. I can re-use them for different tasks. Thanks! :D

Thank you for the video! It's great, good tips

I appreciate your sense of humor more than anything!

wow excellent solution, very clever... thank you.

Thank you for this. I also use a hose through a rigid pipe, which I hold and guide, to syphon rubbish from the bottom of above-ground pool.

some good tips here. I bought the gutter covers to prevent this type of problem. Every company that sells them out there says their's are the best. While they definitely help, they allow material like leaves, buds and keys to collect on them and slowly grind down so they fall in the tiny holes and build up a sludge in the trough. They say the wind blows them off but with seven years of having them, not all blow off and the sludge builds up over time. In my case, I've had to clean the troughs by using a pole with a pinched tip attached to the hose 3 times in that period. It blasts some water through the covers and does get things moving but it is a messy, wet, dirty job and I'm still going up on the ladder to check. I'll try your camera idea and hopefully will be able to see through the cover holes without having to climb up. I'm thinking I'll have to pick a bright sunny day to get the light shining through the covers to be able to see. Thanks for these tips.

Thank you for these ideas. This is what KZfaq should be all about.

Good ideas. I used my gopro on an extended pole to safely check out the clog. Hurricane is headed our way and I noticed gutters overflowing yesterday. Thanks for the video.

HI. Like the way you clean the higher gutter. I will move to my house soon I am sure I have a lots to learn from you and will share to the home owner as me in my DIY video. Thanks. Keep in touch. By the way. Watched your video 2 years ago. Hope we can be friends. Take care.

Nice job! Me personally I just throw away the dirty gutter and at Home Depot tell the the guy in apron to put a clean one up. Very easy, and I didn't have to pay my water bill.

Use a ladder stabilizer to get safer on a roof. Managed to in Winter time to put heat cables on our roof and also used a ladder clamp to hook onto the gutter and even put a heavy block behind the ladder so could reach further to put wires on the ROOF. Felt very safe and secure then! But this is in general a helpful Idea too! And while putting up the cables also was able with a scoop to clean a messy gutter that even had a gutter cover on it which was removed to do the cleaning.

Man you rock. Gave me some great ideas. i am petrified of heights and could not reach my gutters with a regular ladder.

Very helpful suggestions! Also, it's so true...many people fall off ladders and have a lifetime of suffering. Be safe is always good advice :)

Thanks for the ideas. I am disabled and can’t climb a ladder, so this is just great! Good job!

Extremely innovative great idea with pipe and elbow ! Thanks

Yankee ingenuity at its best. Love it.

Lol, I do this all the time , i like the "genius" title , I use slightly different ingredients for my telescoping cell phone camera roof selfie video gig, I use any pvc pole or wood piece that exceeds 6 feet; attach a small cardboard box( from instant coffee product box that has open top) by tape , to the post im using. The cell phone sits in the box at the end of the telescoping post, which, like you, it is hung up over the edge of the roof with varying angle as you walk along your house. I use it on yearly gutters check, and roof inspection, like after a hurricane. Also, can attach non flying drone with wifi camera to pole also for live stream.

Great tips. Thank you for making this video.

I called a company buy they would not come out because of asbestos. I have now bought a ladder and sealant. I can manage getting up high before I feel that I might fall.

This guys a genius.

Very ingenuitive and resourceful. I absolutely love it! Thank you

Wow, the roller cam idea! Can’t wait til tomorrow to try it. Thank you, sir.

Get a Gutter Clutter Buster instead. You don't need a ladder and you can clean gutters on two story homes easily from the ground using your wet/dry vacuum. its the perfect tool for the job.

Good idea. I've always wanted to clean the gutters myself but the conservatory is making access difficult.

I'm gonna try this - good job

I didn't know where u were going with the plastic bag and paint roller until I seen the brilliant use of gravity. very intelligent sir

What a really, really nice guy!!

Thanks for the good tips. I'm hoping to tackle my clogged gutters tonite with a hose attached to an extendable pole. It's two stories high and I'm hoping the pole will reach the gutters while I'm on an extension ladder. Just hoping I won't have to climb too high on the ladder.

You seem to be very innovative. I enjoyed watching you exercise your creativity. And a little bit of humor is always good. Keep up the good work.

Thank you.

yes, you have a good idea also worth trying, especially if you don't have a hose. Use coat hanger to remove big branches and use vac to fish out small debris.

That was great!!! Some great advice and very entertaining!

I will be trying it this weekend, thank you!

Bless his heart! Corg, my mother was French and was always coming up with these kinds of ingenious ideas. ;^)

Well done.. Thankyou your are very smart

Basic and brilliant

Good ideas. Thank you.

Thanks very much, brilliant ideas!!

glad to hear it is useful. Is your camera so heavy you had to use two 2"x1"x8'? Would one 2"x1"x8' work?

good tips! this saved me a lot of money this summer

This guy is awesome. genius Asian is a good name, maybe title of king of ingenuity should be added after :)

Thank you for making this video! You have given me several wonderful ideas! :) Peace to you and your family! :)

Get a shop vac, 6 feet of straight extension, and a gutter attachment (basically an upside down U or V type attachment). Job done. No ladder.

Thanks for the video bro, but by the time you are done messing with your inventions I would have climbed that roof and cleaned the gutters all around that house, including the downspouts. When the roofs are pitched to much and have wooden shingles which get slippery when wet, in this case I work off of the ladder and don't climb the roof. Otherwise I quickly remove the trash and dirt with a small garden scoop or a flat scraper or spatula (depending on the shape of the gutter, some have the bottom rounded) and what's left I rinse with the garden hose or my pressure washer wand at low pressure while standing on the roof (I have never fallen off of a roof in the 8 years I've been doing this). I don't use those long wands with the hooked nozzle any more, all the crap falls on me from the gutters and the gutters don't come out very clean. I have also seen the edges of the roofs with damage caused by those wands and I don't want to get blamed for it, so I just cleaned them manually and then just rinse. If the bottom of the downspouts go into the ground with one of those large plastic pipes, I disconnect them near the ground so that the underground pipes don't get clogged up because they usually don't drain anywhere other than end in the ground under the grass or an underground gravel pit. I do charge extra when I have to go up to 2nd, 3rd and 4th stories high, I won't go any higher than that. NOTE: I do tie myself sometimes to my safety harness when going at or over 2 stories, I always give the rope or cable (I have both to use) only 6 inches to fall (6 in. slack), as I move I have to adjust it at my harness every so many feet, but it goes fairly quickly when I have to tie myself, it does slow me down a little comparing to using nothing on one story high but I sometimes have to do it to make sure I finish the job alive. By the way, I weigh 105 pounds and I can climb like a monkey, no big deal.

Really enjoyed this! Thank you so much tried all of these! Worked a treat and had time to go to doctors! Lovely jubbily

very good idea and very practical . Thank you very much for sharing

This guy is a genius. Thank you very much for the clues

....keep at it! ..you'll get it! ..we did it that way once ..IT WILL COME TO YA LATER ..THINK ABOUT!!

I love this guy

cute :) thanks for sharing i like to use a leaf blower. you could try that form the bottom of your spout and blow back up the pipe

Excellent Video, Creative and Informative...

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much!!!

Awesome idea 👍

good thinking. Appropriate technology.

Well done, sir. Thank you for taking the time to share. Great ideas here.

Great video avoiding pain & suffering could probably even use the lady filming you to pull you up on a rope & pulley system on your next video. Good work like the innovations.👍

This guy is awesome 😂

Thank You My Friend..

Excellent ideas. Thanks for the tips.

This guy is great!

"Extended arm is not a real arm" had me cracking up 😂😂😂 anyway darn good video bro I never thought of doing that MacGyver s*** your the bomb yo.

Some good ideas. Thanks for making this.

today's kids would never think about this (I asked my kids once, you may ask yours if you don't believe me). So it is not the question of saving money, the kids should not only know how to press & press their smartphone, but also use it smartly.

Thank you

thank you will try

Genius!

this is why i love youtube!

you saved me a few hundred bucks!

Great videao.good idea! I enjoyed it and I like your hair :)
