Sprayer, November 7, 2007
By Pilkington from Anna, Ohio

"This product is an excellent buy for the cost. Everything works as it should, and great coverage with the spray. Very little effort with the pump to maintain pressure."

Worked Well for Home Use, November 2, 2007
By Ohioan from Ohio

"Probably not of the quality needed for a professional, but worked very well for personal use at home. Not extremely sturdy, but intelligent use of the hand pump keeps the pressure more than adequate for continuous spraying until empty. Had no problems whatsoever."

BackPack Sprayer, July 12, 2007
By camillion from Mid Central Missouri

"The sprayer was not uncomfortable to wear and not too heavy to use.
Only problem was the handle used to prime it was made of plastic and not durable enough for continues pumping. It broke the first time we used it. Received a replacement handle at no charge and now that we know we have to baby it, we'll do so. We would recommend the pumping handle and connecting part be made of metal though for durability. Hopefully, with cautious use on the handle we can use this sprayer for the remainder of the season. Price was reasonable. Service very good. Shipment received quickly and in good condition."

For the money I didn't like., June 5, 2007
By Evee from South Carolina

"Didn't work well. I had to keep pumping the handle in order to keep it working. I took it back for a new one, and it only work slightly better. would pump it 3 to 5 times and it would only hold pressure for 3 to 5 seconds. I couldn't pump it no more then 5 times. Also the spray head wasn't adjustable."
