Customer Reviews for B&G PestPro IV Backpack Sprayer XR-Valve & 4-Way Tip

Have had several backpack sprayers and this one by far is the best! Very well built. Quality and workmanship was noticed immediately. The straps make it nice to distribute the weight evenly on this unit. I've used this several times and I'm very pleased. Only thing I would say is it is a 4 gallon so a lot of chemical product so be aware of the weight you will be toting. For me I like because it's less filling and cover lots of ground but may be heavy for some. Thank you Domyownpestcontol.com. Awesome professional service , very knowledgeable in helping chose by understanding the products they sell, very fast shipping and not to mention the best prices.

A really good device. Doesn't drip and it's easy to clean and maintain.

Best all around backpack sprayer. Quit buying the $100 specials from home depot or wherever. Spend a few extra bucks now and thank me later. This is a B&G product so you know it's quality and the price is extremely fair. The whole wand assembly is the same as a B&G compressed air sprayer so it's very familiar and reliable. I will be buying again.

First of all I wan't to thank the staff at DoMyOwn. There were some shipping issues do to a mistake on my part that were handled in a professional manor by Heath in the customer service staff. He was prompt in returning my calls, responding to emails, and kept his followup schedule ensuring that everything worked out for me. This truly is a fantastic company. The sprayer is just what I hoped it would be. The price is unbeatable for the quality and the load bearing harness cinches down snugly on my waist and chest taking at least half of the weight off of my shoulders. The pump lever is on a joint hinge that moves from side to side ensuring that I don't over-pressurize the unit which is easy to do because of how little effort it takes to pump. The pump lever also moves in front of my body so that I can fit through narrow doors without bumping into things. I wish that the unit came with the same handle that comes with the standard B&G spray tank with the locking safety. B&G should also offer a Birchmeier style telescoping wand in the future. I may end up with a Frankenstein sprayer incorporating those pieces somehow onto this unit in the future. I use this sprayer to treat the outside of my clients homes, my B&G 1 gallon is reserved for non-repellents now, and my B&G accu-spray is for inside clients homes and on ladders. Not having to stop and pump the hand tank every few minutes and not having to fill up and mix chemicals at every job makes my day much faster now that I have this sprayer. Highly recommended!

This sprayer is a life saver when doing a perimeter treatment. Before this I was using a one gallon sprayer and had to keep refilling. Now with this one, I can finish a job on one tank. It did take me a few minutes to figure out how to put the pump handle on, I didn't realize you had to twist it a bit. But, once it is on, this sprayer is solid and should last for many years. Also, 1-2 weeks just to ship? I got mine in two days! Maybe I was just lucky, but DoMyOwnPestControl has never let me down.

I would give 4 1/2 Stars if possible. The down side for me is the spray handle. It's not nearly as good as the B&G one gallon pressure sprayer. It isn't as comfortable after using it for several minutes and there is no lock on it. I would give it six stars if the handle were the same as the one gallon!

The swivel handle is a nice feature for storage but not so much when you're trying to pump it wish I had some type of locking mechanism. The center Clips on the shoulder straps tend to just get in the way not the best design for commercial use when you frequently put it on and off but it is comfortable to wear.

The course pin stream isn't course enough. I tried spraying my own house and it took way two long. I had a birchmier sprayer at my last job that worked way better. I really wish I wouldn't have wasted my money on this and just bought a birchmier right away! I give a two only because the fan spray works well.

I bought this thinking If I spent a couple hundred bucks It would last a while. After five uses the pump pressure vessel started leaking. I disassembled it all and found nothing glaring, just weak connections from the tank to the pump and I was told to replace them. I went back to my cheap $39 home depot unit that has worked for years.

This sprayer is totally worthless. The wand continues to drain when the handle is released from spraying. The handle is very slippery and does not fit the hand. The backpack harness is very uncomfortable and no matter how it is adjusted, it does not fit properly.
