[quote=Anonymous]We have 5 gutters and they do fine except in the front of our house (right above the front door/stoop) the two roof lines intersect at a 90 degree angle, and when it rains hard a sheet of water cascades over the corner down to the front stoop. We've had our gutters checked/cleaned and it still happens. Our roof pitch is not unusually high. So my takeaway is simply that there ARE circumstances when a 6" gutter is worth the incremental cost. In our case a diverter would have only captured more leaf debris and traded one problem for another - the upgrade to the front gutters made sense. But the side and back of our house has 5" gutters.
