Standard gutters are fine as long as you don't have trees near that will drop their leaves. I am going to close on a house in TV and currently live in a house surrounded by trees. I have tried various type of products to keep the leaves out, to no avail. I looked at gutter helmets once, but they were extremly expensive. A ladder and a scoop designed for narrow gutters works in areas with trees nearby or overhanging.
