 good, not perfect November 2, 2009
Grandeson
Nice sturdy product. Find it a bit dificult to mix properly without being able to see liquid level through container. I now understand why so many have a clear plastic or at least a clear window to help with measuring. I guess one of my products I use (a powder mix) got too thick for the unit, so I had to clean it out, a full dis-assembly was tough and involved a bit of cutting and fugazi re assembly!!lol. I guess for $33 I expected a little bit more, live and learn. Not totally disappointed, not totally not either.
Good sprayer for the money October 16, 2009
MAJA (NC)
Purchased this sprayer after reading lots of reviews. It's exactly as described, works well, and seems sturdy enough. The only comment/complaint (and it's minor) is that the wand tends to work it's way loose where the brass extension fits into the plastic handle. I'm hesitant to really tighten it up as I don't want to strip the plastic thread.
Has a good spray pattern for reaching up into trees or out to weeds that are a bit farther than your arm will reach.
Easy to open, and I really like the second handle, it makes carrying the unit much easier.
 OK, hardly "premium" September 8, 2009
T. Spalding (Austin, TX USA)
This sprayer is light-duty, so the "Premium" and "Professional" designations are misleading.
When I started using it, it was leaking at the downstream side of the valve, where the wand attaches to the valve body. I was able to stop the leak by removing the little filter adapter that had been inserted between the valve body and the wand. Now there's no filter, but at least I am not getting chemical all over my hand.
In short, the sprayer does the job it is supposed to, but I'm not confident it's going to last very long.
Nice Tank Sprayer August 6, 2009

This sprayer is made of very solid material. I'm using it to spray insecticide and it works fine! Highly recommend this product.
Needs user modifications to work correctly !!! August 3, 2009

Upon receiving the sprayer I assembled it per the instructions and proceeded to test it by using it to just spray water. Having tried to fix several sprayers recently I know better than to use a new sprayer the first time to spray insecticidal soap or chemicals without first having tested it out just spraying clean water. The sprayer failed miserably with leaks coming from the trigger and sprayer wand connections all over my hand. I tightened all connections with a pair of pliers and still leaks. At this stage the sprayer was headed for a single star rating and a return to Amazon.
Luckily there's a simple fix, and that is to use Teflon tape on the threads of the two plastic nut connections between the sprayer trigger and the bronze wand (basic plumbing 101 leak elimination technique). The owner's guide refers to one of these as the extension cap and rod, see Fig 5. But does not mention a second plastic nut connection right off the trigger which in fact holds a small filter inside. Once this simple modification was made the sprayer worked like a champ without leaks and became a keeper.
I've only given the sprayer 4 stars because of this basic defect which the manufacturer could easily resolve using the Teflon tape solution. They should at the very least mention this as a fix for the leak problem in their user's guide. Another drawback as others have mentioned is the fact that the tank is not translucent, but in my opinion this is not a big deal because even with the translucent tanks it's hard to gage the water level from the outside. As for the sprayer itself it appears to perform as expected and my favorite part of it is the hefty carrying handle design which is a great improvement over those that just use the usually wimpy pump handle as also a carrying handle.
