hi,i was looking at getting a gutter vac but not sure which one i cant really afford the £1000+ machines.i have seen one for around The £300 mark which is 1400w is this powerful enough or does it need to be about 3000w which is what a lot of the more expensive one are.cheers,martin

it will be good enough for two storey domestics, it's a start tho and you will recoup your money very quickly, a tip if you go for it get a drill attachment and sand down the joints on the alloy poles, makes them so much easier to push and pull apart

I have a big 3kw machine, and a small 1500 watt vac, and the small machine gets used most as it's easier to move around, and taked less space in the van.      There is no noticable difference in suction betwwen the two machines.
If you are going to do a lot of gutter cleaning, then it would be a good idea to get a set of carbon fibre tubes.
