Hurt, no treatment Made Aug 12, 2016, sent to the company Aug 22, 2016, published by CPSC Sep 6, 2016
The product, in the report: GreenThumb Pumpless Pro 2-gallon multi-purpose sprayer, model 65222GT
I purchased a GreenThumb Pumpless Pro multi-purpose sprayer about a month ago. I’ve used it 3 times, and on 2 occasions, the hose detached from the spray wand, dousing me with the contents (an insecticide mix). Because the valve is in the spray wand, once the hose detaches from the spray wand, there is no way to shut off the flow of the liquid insecticide mix until all the pressure is released.
The hose is only held onto the wand by a friction fit (there is no hose clamp) and no pressure regulator on the sprayer, so failure of this kind is unavoidable and inevitable.
Given the types of toxic chemicals typically applied with a garden sprayer, this product is incredibly dangerous and should be recalled immediately.
