Warning: I tried the cheap $40 gutter guards from the big box store versus a local ABQ company's $150 system. The difference after one dust storm was insane.

Honestly, that price gap seems pretty steep. A dust storm is one thing, but how often does that really happen? Might just need to clean the cheap ones more often. Seems like a basic screen either works or it doesn't. Paying over three times the price for what might be a small difference feels like a lot.

Saw this exact thing at my place last year. Bought the cheap screens and they clogged solid after some wind. Had to pull them all off. Upgraded to a better local system and it actually lets the fine stuff through while blocking leaves. @quinn_king16 I get the cost thing, but cleaning clogged guards is a huge pain. The expensive ones just work without the hassle.
