I bought the 2-gallon version of this sprayer about a year ago (Gilmour 2000p). It goes up to 45 PSI, never leaks, and consistently performs better than the store bought sprayers (Roundup Brand, etc.).

I would have ordered this 3-gallon version but I decided on the Stanley 4-gallon backpack sprayer instead (Stanley Professional Backpack Poly 4-Gallon Sprayer #61804). I'll review it after it comes in and I get a chance to use it.

This is an uncomplicated 3 gallon sprayer. I like the strap for carrying the sprayer on your shoulder. The hose is of adequate length, and the spray pattern is predictable.

Bought two of these sprayers, a two gallon and a three gallon. The top of the three gallon sprayer bottle was deformed (looked like it had been melted, probably happened during manufacturing, but how did it get by quality control?) and the top would not screw on tightly, so it would not build pressure. The two gallon sprayer wand handle fell apart in my hand after about five minutes of use, and when I attempted to depressurize the bottle with the pressure release valve, the valve collar came off in my hand. Both returned for refund.

Everything about this sprayer is fantastic except for the shoulder strap. The hole on the body of the sprayer will only accept one end of the strap so the other end has to clip onto the clip of the other end which makes that a weak connection. I was forced to start using the carry handle more and one of the plastic wings the handle attaches to folded and the handle falls off if I try to lift with the handle in the "wrong" position. I really do like the sprayer and its ability to adjust the spray volume for indoor or outdoor applications.
