My downspout feeds into a drywell so the need to keep the gutters clean so the drywell doesn’t get clogged with debris is important. Only problem is the gutter is so high I need to hire a contractor to clean it. I just installed this device and after its first rainstorm it was full on stuff from a nearby oak tree. Amazing! Easy to clean out and looks like it belongs there. Worth every penny!

A bit pricey but a great product. I used this for an underground downspout. The built-in Leaf filter and the overall usability is quite nice. A well thought out design. I have another buried downspout project to do and will likely buy this product again.

I needed to bury a few downspouts and wanted to be sure it was done right. Found FDM on YouTube and thought he made a lot of sense. When my 2 filters arrived the quality was apparent immediately. These aren't the cheap filters you pick up at the local hardware store. They are THICK, heavy duty plastic. The first thing I though of were the old green and orange Tupperware containers from my childhood in terms of thickness the door goes on and stays on, it's easy to install, and does exactly what it claims. It's pricey, but when you hold it you know exactly why it costs more and it it is definitely cheaper than a flooded basement or foundation damage.

I hooked it up with relative ease. It has been working very well now for 2 months

I bought the French Drain Man gutter adapter with vented clean-out and two other cheaper models. The difference is like night and day. Although more expensive, the engineering and thought that went into creating the French Drain Man product is far superior to the cheaper models. Your product has a removable top for easier installation, a lot more space, and a removable grate that allows access to the drain for tools like augers. The removable door keeps the water from splashing into the yard. I just ordered two more.

They are a nice looking unit and more attractive than a typical Y-cleanout. They make it easier to remove leaves & debris, plus the door and grill are removable to place a garden hose to help clear the drain.Originally ordered one to see how I liked it and to see how easy it was to install. Then ordered 3 more for the downspouts. This definitely helps with the underground gutter drain system.I opted to install one slightly higher off the ground taking into consideration it was in a landscape bed and would be a bear to get to when the shrubberies get larger. This should make it easier to get to over time. The rest were all installed lower to the ground and as you can see, they blend in nicely.They are a bit on the pricey side and that's the reason for less than 5 stars.Will update more when Spring arrives and the helicopter seeds release.
