Has anyone had any experience with gutter protectors

Unless you've got specific drainage issues around your foundation, leave the
damn gutters off. I had leaves, too, [and ice dams] til I pulled them off
about 6 years ago. A simple diverter over each doorway, and some crushed
stone around the foundation does the trick.
