The Original Hall's Rainsaver Gutter Kit - but with a bendy downpipe! The simple solution to the problem of fixing guttering to sheds. The kit assembles without tools, and can be fit in seconds. Simply slide brackets on to gutter, add stop end and clamp the whole thing to the roof. Slide the flexible downpipe on, nip up the clamp and start saving rainwater into the water butt of your choosing! Bracket opening clamps between 10mm (approx 1/3") and 76mm (approx 3") - roof edges <10mm thick will need a bit of packing material e.g. small block of wood. This kit package comes with a 1m flexible downpipe - there is also a 1m rigid downpipe version.

Needs more bits
The kit is easy to fit and enables you to have guttering for a rainwater barrel great. However the kit does have a couple of problems , no elbows for the down pipe. If you try and fit the down pipe to the barrel without off set elbows it twists the guttering all out of shape ,without the bends it's a bit of a Heath Robinson set up and looks awfull. The cheapest off set bends I could find are 2.99 each you will need two add to that postage and it's going to cost me another twelve pounds to make it work as it should. I would advise you to shop around away from Amazon as the same kits can be purchased for about the same price with the bends and longer guttering. If I hadn't unpacked and tried to set it up I would be returning it and buying a complete kit elsewhere. I think like many others I see Amazon as a one stop shop I really must check out other sites before buying in future.

Very useful
This is an excellent device to collect rain water that otherwise goes to waste. Before purchase check whether you need aflexible down pipe or rigid. Bear in mind that the gauze of pipe is not the standard for rain collection to the water butt. Not sure of the solution.Having said all that I am very happy with the product and with the service from the supplier who quickly replaced my down pipe to flexible even though I had to pay. Very happy.

Could be better designed
Problem with this is that there is no way to adjust the length of the brackets so that the guttering slopes towards the hose end, so the water doesn't drain out properly.

Exactly as described on the package
I ordered two kits and they both arrived on time and were as easy to fit as the adverts claimed. I did break one clip and this was replaced by the seller at no cost. I did order some other parts in connection with these and, over the phone, I found the seller very helpful and tolerant of my ignorance.

Overpriced
A word of caution in the first instance; be sure to check the brackets/kit fit your particular roof, as I ended up rejigging with different brackets. That self-induced setback aside, this is a convenient if fairly flimsy set-up and a little more effort sourcing the parts from a DIY shop is likely to yield cheaper and more robust results.

OK but expensive.
A good idea but seems expensive for what you get, a fixing clamp for the downspout would have been a good extra, plus there's no adjustment for if your shed roof is not perfectly level so the water could run the wrong way, I solved this by putting plastic packers on the clamp under the roof. However delivery was quick and it does the job.

Over priced
Very over pricedIn heinsight- - I could have brought all parts for a fraction of the price at B,&Q - will know better in the future - worth doing g research before buying for parts needed -Other than that- arrived promptly - no issues to raise except the price - ouch!!!

No tools required!
Easy to fit, I used rubber plant pot feet under the clamp to protect the shed troop felting.
