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

The hand valve,wand,constant flow valve with fan nozzle work like a charm. You won't miss awkward hose end sprayers and small pump up jugs on larger yards. With 4 gallons unit is tough to put on. Set it up high on a bench and back into it to put on. Top shoulder pads could be more spongey for comfort. Wand clip location doesn't seem correct. Overall, unit is very solidly constructed. Great tool for the money.

The backpack is solid. Definitely better than the comparably priced one at Lowes. A lot of little features, such as improved straps, brass wand, and constant pressure regulator, that cheaper brands don't have. When I first got it, It came with two right shoulder straps. Emailed Chapman directly about it, and they sent me a new strap within a week or 2. Used it anyway initially with the incorrect strap and was able to accomplish in 30 minutes and 2 tanks what had taken me 2 hours using the little 1 gallon hand pumped sprayer I got at Lowes months before for $8.

I have been using this backpack spayer now for a few weeks and it is so much nicer than a carry type when doing my perimeter pest control. However, there are 2 very minor issues with it. 1. Cannot drain from the bottom, which makes it a bit more difficult to clean out. 2. The clips that hold the backpack harness to the metal frame come unclipped when putting the harness on, if not extremely careful when slipping the harness onto the opposite shoulder. Other than that, this thing works very well and has made my chores of spraying insecticide and herbicide so much easier. I would definitely recommend this unit. It is comfortable and works as advertised.

Sprayer sprays good. A little challenge getting on. Works best putting up on table or something and backing into it to put on. Belt thing around bottom tends to get tangled up. It is kind of cumbersome. Would be nice to have a handle on it somewhere for carrying. Beats the kind that you have to stop and pump up all the time.

Quick and easy assembly. Filled up and sprayed the backyard & property for the first time. Worked as it was supposed to. Found the harness to ride up a bit (i'm 6'2"). Not greatest part of the unit but as long as you don't have to strap in on for several hours on a daily basis its's fine. Would recommend.

Backpack is definitely designed better for men, rather than women in the petite size range. Other than not being very comfortable (for me) to wear, unit is easy to set up. The pressure control attachment was not of much use, but it's optional, so no problem. Stand made it convenient to fill on top of a table, then ease onto my back. Liked being able to simply pump the handle while spraying, rather than having to frequently set the tank down and pump. Enabled me to get job done more efficiently than my 1 gal hand-held. If Chapin made a 2 gallon size with straps that consider women's body frame, 5 stars.

very little assembly.... tested it out yesterday -- no issues at all....back pad straps a tad akward but seem OK....pump handle could be just a bit longer but my little test run it worked good. so far soo good -- we will see when the farm season starts how it holds up. Seems pretty heavy duty - I use all the time - pesticides etc .. hoping for 2-3 years from it.

Finally I have a Back Pack Sprayer that will make my life easy. For years I used a 2 GL Roundup sprayer, now with this it is so easy and fast. I am not a commercial sprayer but I love this one!!!

My husband Ken really likes the BackPack Sprayer and has used it a few times now. The only reason he wouldn't give it five stars is the instructions were not clear enough on how to strap it to you back. He did figure it out though. It is a wonderful easy way to get rid of those pesky weeds and he hated the pump kind he had to try to carry around!
