Tools and Hardware Reviews of Gilmour D1 1-Pound-Capacity Dry Application Garden Duster
Customer Review: Good value for the cost
Summary: 4 Stars
Although this unit will not perform like the crank models that cost 3 times as much...it will be fine for smaller area applications like roses or potato patches, etc. ...just expect to do some shaking of the unit while pumping in order to keep the duster primed. The large fill mouth is a real plus! I am not much of a plastic fan, but this unit feels stout and it will not corrode like the old tin units used to.Customer Review: Handy Dandy

Summary: 5 Stars
I had a bug problem in my home garden and I had owned an ancestor of this type of duster. It was given to me by an elderly gentleman when I gardened out in the country here in North Carolina. It was misplaced years ago. I had since used a pump liquid dispenser for SEVIN. It was OK but liquid SEVIN is very expensive. You cannot imagine my joy to find it here on Amazon.com. I immediately put it to use.
This is a simple yet very durable tool. I just dump some SEVIN dust in it, screw the top on and I am ready to go. One can dust as lightly or heavily as he or she wishes. Just be careful not to breathe the dust in. It is easy as one can see the way the dust is blowing. Use this in 'no wind' or 'slight wind' situations for best results. Morning or evening is best.
This duster is stoutly built, but not unbreakable. It is built of plastic, but a very durable thick plastic. I judge it to be as durable as any duster made. It is better than the metal duster I once had.
This duster is a LOT more economical to use (with SEVIN) than any liquid duster I owned. There is no maintenance to it - just keep it in a dry place when storing it.
I gave it a five star rating -only because I could not give it six stars.

Summary: 4 Stars
This product works pretty much as it is described, and is a good value for the price. I used it to spray sulphur powder on a nectarine tree, and it worked just fine - you do get a workout from pumping it though ! I did not give it 5 stars because, as someone else mentioned, it squeaks loudly when you pump it. That becomes annoying after a while. If that could be resolved, it would earn the 5th star.
