I must admit, I was skeptical, but this unit is decent! I would give it an A- grade. I used it immediately yesterday after it arrived, with TalStar Pro (BIFEN) !! Amazing results! I mixed up 4 tankfuls for my 7+ acre property, which is wooded, in rural NH and was FULL of Ticks, Mosquitos and Biting Deerflies. While filling up for the 1st use, I was being attacked by the deerflies and skeeters, after loading up and spraying the area, (****You WILL need help, or a table, or truck tailgate to strap this thing on, It is 65-70 lbs when full !), the flies and skeeters were immediately knocked down. I then proceeded down some tall grass, brushy,overgrown trails and sprayed three more tankfuls, black nozzle knob on 2, water valve on full, (as this was my 1st time spraying this heavily infested area) and sprayed side to side as I walked, watching the mist and fog pattern carefully, it was laying down a good pattern. ( I will probably use Black nozzle knob setting 1 for future sprays). I did get quite a few... 30+ !! Ticks on me while spraying, BUT, as I walked back to the truck, close to the area being sprayed I only had 2 on me ! The few ticks I did find died within 10mins of application.
****WARNING**** PLEASE WEAR a good Respirator ! Niosh approved, for Paint fumes, NOT a Dust mask! I could smell the stuff thru the Sanding/Dust style cheapos, Which I IMMEDIATELY swapped for Pro Dual Cartridge Breather,Charcoal Style ! DO NOT MESS WITH THESE CHEMICALS ! , long sleeve shirt and pants and a hat (I'm bald...sooo ) Read Your Pesticide of choice Recommendations !!!. I blew mist into underside of trees and shaded areas for Mosquitoes, which penetrated well, and and was very aware to see that the grass and leaves were disturbed, so as to be sure to get the product deep into the paths. This large area had NEVER been treated, and is not lived on yet, as I just purchased it. We tried to camp there twice this summer and it was unbearable ! There are damp areas nearby and the Skeeters/Horseflies/Ticks were unbearable. On our first 2 camping trips, my dog had over 50 ticks on her, and all of us were covered with at least 20 ticks each, all while swatting flies and skeeters...MADNESS, The bug sprays we used had No effect ! ! I'm Happy to report, I was back there today, and had only 1 tick on me, after 30 mins of walking the treated trails and never saw a Deerfly, or a mosquito either... I mixed the Chemical as recommended, 1 oz to 1 gallon H20, it has a 3.7 gallon tank, so i just mixed 4 oz to a tankful (this time) for a good, strong 1st application. I will do again, using a less heavy spray, and less product, probably 3 oz to 3.7 gallons H20. The solution does need to be mixed well, add half the H2o 1st, then Chemical, then finish filling with H20, it will be somewhat milky white when done. If you watch the clear hose while spraying, you can tell when its empty, also the mist /spray will diminish. Easy Stuff, and, It's gets lighter as you go, thankfully, This baby is 70lbs on your back full !!!
I highly recommend this system, it ran well, and It only used minimal fuel mix ( 2 stroke, 50:1 ratio with non-ethanol gas, if using ethanol gas, increase the oil amount in the mix to 30:1, as recommended in the manual...) **You DID Read the Manual, RIGHT????***, The primer bulb is well hidden under the carb, I almost didn't see it, and you WILL need it !
You won't be disappointed with this baby, and the best thing is we don't need stinky/greasy/ somewhat dangerous Bug sprays anymore !!!! Better for you,Kids,dogs and just a pleasant experience being outside and BUG FREE !!!
Pardon the Pun, But BE a HAPPY CAMPER Again !!!!!

This machine is not as bad as others have made it out to be
After reading the reviews for this machine I was a bit skeptical. A lot of people saying that it was poorly made and Chinese junk. It wasn't 2 concerning because those things are outsourced to China anyways. Even a lot of these American made things have Chinese Parts on them.I have been using backpack mist blowers for a decade. I've been used all kinds of sprayers. The solo 451. D Makita mm4. He still sr450 and Sr 200I would not necessarily say this machine is worse than steel. The difference is that I like about it or its sprays much heavier if you take out the little dispersing fan at the end of the nozzle. The power on this is just as strong as the Stihl sr450, they're larger model that cost about $800. However, it's the same price as their small model B Stihl sr200 that only holds 2 and 1/2 gallonsEssentially you're getting Stihl sr450 oh, but it is made a bit cheaper. The only thing that I have not liked about it so far after using it for 2 weeks for 10-12 hours a day is the shoulder straps come disconnected. It only takes a second to put them back on, but it is Lou inconvenient. Also the way that you turn on the fluid valve. It's a bit awkward.I had sworn by the STIHL backpack sprayers because anybody that sells them is able to work on then. However there is a downfall to this. Is done on their time. A lot of people that are authorized to repair these are rental equipment stores. They are too busy keeping up their own equipment and it takes at least a month to get them back. This is the whole reason I ended up buying one of these because I have had 5 Stihl sr200 break down on me in the last month. Granted they lasted about a year, year and a half.This is a decent sprayer. For residential use I would say go for it. For commercial use, you won't be disappointed. I can see myself buying another one of theseI know some that complained about the machine leaking. If the lid on the solution tank is difficult to put on then the gasket has come out partially. You have to fix it before putting it on. Also when connecting the solution lines when you are first getting it and putting it together, make sure that you do it right. I have not had this machine leak on me one time. I guess I'm just aren't as handy as others
