This review is from: NorthStar Skid Sprayer - 200-Gallon Tank, Honda GX160 Engine

The unit looks good and is put together well, but that is about it. The on/off switch is difficult to reach in the back of a vehicle along with the pull rope. None of these were placed in a very good location. The hoses are put together with regular hose clamps, these do not hold up to high pressure. I had the hose blow off at several times, I finally had to put two clamps on each of the fittings. I used it for about 12 hours straight with no problems, then the hose from the pump to the hose reel ruptured, again at a bad time.
