Customer Reviews for Chapin Tree/Turf Pro 4 Gallon BackPack Sprayer (#62000)

The backpack style sprayer works good, less trips to refill the pack. Straps need to be redesigned, fits but not comfortable.Used with full tank,too heavy for me.2 gallons was perfect,Heavy duty constructions.Now the lower rating.I noted that other reviews said the handle pivot broke.Mine broke on 2nd tank.Should use a hd cotters pin. Will contact mfg. if you know of a weak point,why not fix it?other wise love this pack,great range for shoting up into trees.

The unit worked awesome the first time I used it. Then I ran into problems. First, the plastic elbow connector on the spray wand stripped. I only hand tightened it so it wasn't like I used too much force on it. Then the plastic locking mechanism on the spray handle snapped. Finally, and worst of all, the holes on both the handle and the shaft where they attach enlarged from the stress of pumping, and now the unit is nearly impossible to pump. I called Chapin customer support and they are sending me replacement parts. I'm hoping that the replacement parts are of better quality than the originals. The CS rep at Chapin did say the shaft/pump handle attachment had been redesigned so I'm assuming that is a common/known issue. I'm very disappointed with initial quality. When buying a "pro" sprayer I expected better craftsmanship and durability. But I am pleased with Chapin's willingness to correct the issues and stand behind their product. DoMyOwnPestControl customer service was great too and offered to take back the unit. But, I'm going to give the replacement parts a try. I really did like how it worked the first time.

The reason I'm writing this review is because the 62000 sprayer is good except for the handle it fits loose and wabbles too much the tuck away handle is a good idea but is not designed well and you need to constantly continue to pump that's where the handle gets very noticeable, the pressure regulator is great everything else is great just the pump handle is why I have such trouble to pump it

Mixed emotions about the sprayer, first had problem trying to figure the harness, still not 100% sure about how it fits to keep properly positioned. Called DMO, customer service not sure how it best fit. I recommend a better illustration as to how the harness fits to help anyone else who might purchase the unit.
