Default Gutter covers - yes or no?

After 34 years of cleaning our gutters, my DH has decided to call it quits
and check into gutter covers/guards. I remember reading somewhere that
they're good for trapping leaves but no good for keeping out the small tree
debris that falls from some trees in the spring. On our property we have
two humungous oak trees that drop that tree crap in the spring, and in
addition we also get the stuff that falls from our neighbor's linden tree
(also known in this house as the tree from hell). Can anyone give me some
feedback on whether these guards are a good idea? And if so, any
recommendations on one brand over another?

Thanks.
