Tools and Hardware Reviews of Gilmour D1 1-Pound-Capacity Dry Application Garden Duster
Customer Review: Quite pleased with it
Summary: 4 Stars
We bought this to dust our carpet with fluffy diatomaceous earth (DE)for fleas.
- It distributes the dust evenly and lightly, just as I wanted.
- It is easy to fill.
- As others pointed out, the wand tends to fall off unless it's twisted on really tightly.
- A bit of dust comes out the pump end, probably because the DE is so ultra fine, but not enough to be a problem.
Customer Review: Useless

This worked great for about 15 minutes, but then started spraying out the back of the unit. Don't waste your money on this!Customer Review: Works fairly well

The nozzle tends to fall off when you're using it, other than that it works fine.Customer Review: Works well enough
Summary: 4 Stars
I think it works about as good as you could expect. Being made of plastic I think is a benefit, although I've never used any other model, reading other peoples' reviews led me to think that metal dusters were not as easy to use. This one is fairly easy, however, I do have the problem of the leading extension hose popping off periodically while I'm dusting. But that may be due to excessive speed and force on my part. It does distribute well, and the main issue of benefit for me is to place as much distance between me and the dust, which this definitely does. I would recommend this to any gardener who knows what they need this for. Makes a good differenceCustomer Review: You'll be dusting yourself!
Summary: 1 Stars
At first I loved it: setup was easy and I was able to reach the tops of my tallest tomato plants; but after the first few pumps I noticed that every time I pulled the handle dust was shooting out at me from the shaft hole. About as much came out the wrong end as went out the right end. There's no telling how much dust I inhaled before I realized I was dusting myself. There is no instruction manual, the instructions are printed on the duster canister and are simple: open container and fill with up to one pound of dust. The warnings on the container instruct to wear protective clothing and don't spray people or animals. I had to go online to find the customer service number. Needless to say I will be returning this.
