I had rented a similar unit a few years before purchasing so I knew what I was getting into.The equipment make is appropriate to duty, anything to make it more robust would add to the weight and nobody wants that.It works as you would expect and performs equal to a standard pressure washer wand with a given nozzle.There's many complaints about controlling it, but that's all up to the operator.I am a 42 year old 5'6" male, 200lbs, stockier than most, but it's natural, I don't work out. But I started working on farms when I was 10, I'm not afraid of work, and temporary pain or discomfort don't prevent me from finishing a job. If you're a city kid who doesn't know what manual labor is, a millennial, or just somebody who is averse to working to save some money, don't purchase.My pressure washer is 2800 psi. I used a 15 deg nozzle on the end. At full extension it's a handful. You have to use your head and understand a few things.First, when you pull the trigger the water exiting the nozzle is going to force it back, if you fight it or start trying to control it too soon it's going to whip around. Hold it firm, let it kick and then it will settle.The jet force that is pushing the wand back will increase the closer the nozzle gets to the object being washed. Trying to force it too close and it will kick back, making the jet force decrease, which makes it go back towards the object, which increases the jet force and makes it kick back. Rinse, lather, repeat. If that's happening you're trying to get the nozzle too close. Back away or switch to a larger angle nozzle to decrease the jet force.Second, balancing a stick straight in the air is easy, you only hold the weight. When you tilt a stick you introduce a moment force that makes it feel heavier. The further you tilt it the heavier it will feel. This wand is the same, both when you initially position it, and as you operate it. If you're smart, you can find a balance point/angle/distance that makes the jet force kicking back balance the moment force trying to swing it down. Then you only hold the weight, which is still tiring, but manageable.But what all of that means is that you really don't have a wide range of motion with it before it becomes too heavy or uncontrollable. You can only work about a 2' square before either needing to step over or bringing the wand down and changing the length. This adds time to the job. Just set your expectations. It will not operate like the small wand that comes with the washer.Also, to help your decision - it's difficult to see exactly where the nozzle is washing. The angle that I found to hold it at put me semi close to my house. Often the sun would be in my eyes as I'm looking up 2+ stories, also I wear glasses which is impossible as a good amount of the water is raining on you. Somebody else might have a better experience in this regard.

Purchased this in 2019 so here is my hands on over time review.For the record I am 72 years young. Like others have said it can be a workout but once you use it for a while you figure out the best way to handle it. I had ignored my gutters for a year and I am surrounded by pines and oaks. Needless to say it was pretty compacted. After getting through that I no longer ignore them since this makes it easy, so to speak to do. i use it with a HF pressure washer.Tips:1: Wear safety glasses and a hat as leaf and water blowback will get to you sooner or later and you will get wet.2: Some may prefer to get a harness to help offset the weight.3: I use this with the addition of one of those 2 direction gutter attachments that work well for this job.Like this one: https://www.amazon.com/RIDGE-WASHER-Attachment-Pressure-Disconnect/dp/B0892BP85F/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2ZJD28IY6QLTA&keywords=gutter+cleaner+attachment&qid=1663167249&sprefix=gutter+cleaner+attachment%2Caps%2C246&sr=8-44: A trick is using hydraulic principles to speed things up. Turn on the pressure and let it fill the gutter for a bit then rapidly trigger the wand on and off. The short blasts will use the water volume as a battering ram and blow stuck junk out of the gutter.5: You will leave a mess on the outside of the gutters. Remove the gutter attachment and plug in one of the nozzles that came with you washer. Easy blast that stuff right off.6: While it is hooked up I have used it to blast away the crud that winds up on the driveway and deck.FWIW the washer itself does a better and faster job of blowing leaves off the driveway than the usual air blower.Also for blowing junk out of shrubbery.7: As noted elsewhere it is good for house cleaning on tall sections.Have fun and stay dry.For those that complain about it getting away from them> IF you use the curved piece and a single nozzle, YES it will beat you up. The single nozzle works for the down spouts but you want to kind of hang it with some down pressure on the edge of the gutter. IF you want to clean the gutters and have control get the attachment mentioned earlier in this review. No stress with it.
