FWIW I'm installing the kind with ultra fine mesh. We have a couple of large pine trees near the house and a couple of deciduous trees a few feet away. Its costing me about $9 per four foot section. They just slide into place, no screws required although that seems to be a happy accident between our gutters and shingles.
Seems to me that the ultra fine mesh variety should handle most cases pretty well. fancy one piece options only make sense when you're installing all new gutters.
I find the advice regarding cleaning to be odd - but maybe some places get a lot of dust? IMO, you don't need to keep _everything_ out of the gutters, just avoid clogs.I'm optimistic that I'll inspect them occasionally but cleanings will be rare.
