Customer Reviews for Chapin Premier 1 Gallon Sprayer (#21210XP)

The pump is great and builds great pressure. The jug and pump are made of good quality. The sprayer wand is also of good quality. The only issue I have is the spray pattern is a bit too wide and it's not adjustable. In addition the tip leaks and drips after the last spray which can be frustrating when I'm trying to control where I spray the pesticide.

I thought it was a little pricey at first, but when I received the sprayer, I then understood. Very high quality, and I really like the pressure release valve at the top. Cheaper sprayers don't have this.

Great sprayer for the price and like most other reviews and comments unfortunately the tip leaks drops of insecticide when one stops spraying. I hope Chapin invents a new tip specifically for spraying fine mist or fan spray without the problem of leakages.

This sprayer is fantastic. I had bought the big box stores sprayers and they had become pieces of garbage through the years. The last one I bought was bad from day one. This spryer is great. It is sturdy, the pump handle is sturdy, and the valve is wonderful. It is just well made. I am so impressed, I am going to purchase another one for the garden.

I bought this tank to be just for pesticides and have used it a number of times since purchase. It performs as it should and here is my Pro/Con input: Pro: Lightweight and pressurizes well. Quality materials, doesn't feel cheap, Pressure release valve is a great addition Con: The sprayer latch or hangar isn't all that useful (not a big deal), the wand utilizes paper/cardboard gaskets for sealing the connections off. The one closest to the handles works ok but the one closest to the spray tip constantly leaked. I took some teflon tape (common plumber tape) and it fixed the problem. Over all, this is a great tank to use for pest abatement and I am satisfied with this purchase

Sprayer is very well made, but not too impressed with the spray nozzle... Maybe the fan spray nozzle will work better for me...

This sprayer is good for outdoors, but so is a cheap dept. store sprayer for a lot less. I was expecting a sprayer for indoor use but the stream is way to heavy. When you spray baseboards it will leave puddles on the floor. Very disappointed in the nozzle adjustment.

I have purchased a couple of sprayers previously, but none were so easy to put together and work with as this one. Your friendly customer service and video of the product was very helpful as well.

I'm definitely satisfied with this product. It works as advertised and is way better than those pesticide/sprayer combos you buy at the department stores. A couple pumps go a long way.

Works very well for outdoor use. Sprays to heavy and drips which makes it not very useful indoors.

I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but it is very sturdy and the hose and extension wand are good quality. I am especially pleased with the quick shipping and good service and availability of these products from DoMyOwnPestControl and will definitely be shopping with them for the forseeable future.

Really impressed with this little sprayer. Has metal handle, metal wand, easy to adjust the stream. Has good pressure. I only wish that the pin-stream was a little smaller for spraying around baseboards inside.

If you are looking for an outdoor/garden sprayer, look no further. This is a high quality outdoor ONLY sprayer. If you want indoor/outdoor, read on. Contrary to the Q&A section, This WILL drip and does NOT mist. I tested mine outside with water and WOULD NOT use for indoor pesticides. I did call Chapin at 1-800-950-4458 and they verified my findings are normal for this model and if you want an indoor sprayer that will mist and not drip, you need a better model/sprayer. This model will put out way too much product for indoor use and you will be wiping up plenty of drip spots. The nozzle is adjustable for stream or fan spraying, THIS WILL NOT MIST.

The first sprayer I have had that really works and feels like a quality product. I expect it to continue functioning well.

Just received my sprayer yesterday and was excited to door an indoor application of insecticide I got on this site. I filled the sprayer with water to see what kind of spray pattern I would get and was disappointed to see that when I released the trigger a considerable amount of liquid drips from the tip. Enough liquid dripped out to form a puddle on our tile. My wife took one look at that and said "no". I bought this based on Domyownpestcontrol.com's comments that it was a good sprayer with a fine spray for indoor applications. I would disagree with this assessment.

I purchased this lil guy with my pest control products. About 2 months before I ordered I sprayed with a spectrcide from Home Depot. Using that other sprayer I had to use 4 gallons to spray my foundation perimeter, this one I used 1.5 gallons. Very easy to use and assemble. Great product.

I was debating this or the metal sprayer. Glad i went with the plastic, which is thick and durable. I rave about how long it sprays for after pumping the unit. Strong stream or spray. I just spray my own home now for pests but feel like a professional, and dont have to be available for their appointment time.

I just used mine for the first time. You have to tighten each fitting but other than that no leaking no issues. Personally I think many have no clue how to use this. I have a few sprayers and have a idea of how they are to be used. The release valve to release the pumped pressure is the black button on the can. It is to be pulled up not pushed in to release the pressure in the can. The brass sprayer has a joint that needs tightened as well. But this once tightened is a good solid feeling item. The nozzle is adjustable and that is a nice feature. I will add I'm a real person who has purchased this item and not paid for in anyway by DoItYourself. Don't listen to the other reviews on. This. Tighten everything up and this sprayer will last you a lifetime.

I purchased the sprayer in late February. It arrived and worked perfectly, once. After that use with Suspend, it was rinsed and not used until about a week ago. This time the sprayer would not develop any pressure no matter how long and hard i pumped. This sprayer costs and appears to be a premium product. It is not. Not recommended.

This sprayer worked for 2 uses and now will not work at all. NOTHING will come out of the sprayer. I CLEANED and dried it thoroughly after each use and the 3rd time I went to use would not work at all. This is the worst sprayer I have ever purchased. Waste of my money!

This upgraded model is even better performance charging the tank and maintaining pressure. I found the internal mechanism a much better design. Depressurizing is a better design and cean up is faster. Read and follow all the instructions as there is safety information AND procedures that will make the sprayer last! This is going to be the last sprayer I'll ever have to buy. I also really appreciate domyown.com for great advice and fast shipping!

This is a 60$ ! Sprayer and the pump will break in less than two weeks. Maybe not so bad if your just doing around your home, but I used it every day for a couple weeks and then the pump broke. Not worth 60$

It's a nice high quality sprayer with one glaring design failure. If you don't screw the top on just right it will never seal and will leak air. And it's very easy to get wrong. The threads on the canister make it very very easy to cross thread (maybe I got a bad one) and if that happens, it will leak air. They could have done a much better job here.

The sprayer was not assembled correctly & it wasn't something that could be fixed. It was assembled wrong in the factory. I emailed the company because I needed this sprayer fast. They wanted me jump through hoops to get another sprayer.

Instructions are sparse and not easy to understand ... the plastic "bottle" is "2-pieces" and its seams at the screw top need to be sanded with very fine sandpaper to prevent gouging the grommet and to achieve a better airtight seal ... there's an undocumented "trick" to getting the brass wand into the correct position with an airtight seal at the squeeze valve ... there's bold, dark blue advertising on the bottle but the raised, fluid level markings are not colored (and hard to see, so I colored them with a black Sharpie. And finally the spray jets are sorta big for precision, indoor spraying. But hey, I'll use it only 4 times a year and I'm not a professional exterminator so I'll learn to live with it.

It will not hold air pressure unless you are constantly pumping it. You can not pump and spray. The pressure is very low. I am normally very happy with your products. But this product has not been satisfactory.
