  1. No one hurt

    Made Jul 29, 2018, sent to the company Aug 6, 2018, published by CPSC Aug 20, 2018

    The product, in the report: Gardenline white one-gallon multi-purpose spray tank. Includes tank, pump, and wand. Has a pressure relief valve on top. Described by manufacturer as ideal for weed control, pest control, and disinfectant spray.

    I filled a Gardenline one-gallon multi-purpose spray tank with one gallon of weed killer mix, took it to the driveway in front of my garage, and pumped 3-4 times to begin to pressurize it. I heard a loud boom and the entire front of the tank opened up and blew the fluid all over the driveway. I was wearing shorts, and some of the fluid went on my boots and legs. I immediately washed it off my legs and then cleaned up as best I could. Fortunately, I was wearing glasses, a mask, and gloves, or else some of the spray could have gotten in my eyes. If the back of the tank had blown out, the fluid would have gone all over me and into my garage. If I had been able to pressurize the tank fully and had been carrying it and spraying at the time of the blowout, the situation could have been even worse. I inspected the tank and took pictures that I will attach. The plastic appears not to be of sufficient thickness and quality to hold the pressure needed to be a safe and dependable spray tank. I purchased the tank at Aldi in North Port, FL, 4/27/2016 as an extra sprayer. I have two much older one-gallon tanks that have performed well and safely. I have used the Gardenline sprayer only a few times for very light duty. It has never suffered any damage or abuse before the incident but has been stored in my shed where I keep the others. The tank had no apparent hole or crack in it before the incident or it would not have held sufficient pressure to blow up.
