Would Not RecommendSadly, these spouts fell apart after one year. They were stored in a shed for the bulk of the year. I only bring them out when it rains in the winter. When I tried to use them the second time, the fell apart while expanding them. Absolute rubbish. Plastic is too thin and degrades too quickly.

Great for getting water away from my foundation!
Would RecommendI love these flexible downspouts! They can be pulled out in full-length to get the gutterc water away from the house. They can be directed to the right, left or center. They are easy to install. The only thing I don't like is that after about a year in the sun, they start to break up and the water leaks out of the holes or cracks made by the sun. Then I have to get new ones. They should last longer than a year.

Keeps water away from home
Would RecommendI’ve been using these downspout extenders for some time now. I need something easy to connect and direct the water away from the house and these fit the bill. I like how I can choose the length I want it to extend as well.

Junk that won't last.
Would Not RecommendI purchased 4 of these for my home 1 year ago. As of today, on 2 of these, pieces have snapped right off. I remove these, they are not fastened to my downspouts, every time I mow grass. They are only flexible when they are brand new. Try expanding them or try making them shorter, they will completely break off. Find another brand.
Sun made it brittle and break
Would Not RecommendJust over a year after I bought it it snapped in half. Then when I tried to save it by pulling out the accordian part on one half they snapped and cracked too. It just couldn’t hold up to the sun and weather.
Broke at 5 months
Would Not RecommendI bought this in February, and went to move it today, July, and it just broke apart. It has been attached to the downspout the whole time, but hasn't weathered well. When I removed it completely, it broke in 2 more places. I do NOT recommend this, as I think it should last longer.
