Customer Reviews for Dustin Mizer

This is a great duster out of the box. I've had at least four over the years and they all have become useless after one or two seasons. The plastic gears and shafts apparently develop "slop" and get out of time making cranking difficult and cause the fan to frequently "lock up". Perhaps the company should borrow the same system on bait cast fishing reels to turn the venturi and to be more durable and maintainable.

It works well, but it does waste a lot of the dust. I had to cover most of the holes with duct tape to stop waste of dust. With the holes partially covered it works well.

I have used this product for several years. Maybe it is worn out or something, but I have to keep slapping the side of it for the powder to fall from the hopper into the mechanism for spraying. I use DE. Maybe if I mix it with salt it will flow easier, I don't know. But it is labor intensive when all you get is maybe three or four cranks with adequate "spew" before you have to slap it hard again several times. By the time the entire yard is finished, I am exhausted. I am looking for alternatives now.

Excess stress and torque are placed on the supporting hand while cranking the blower. Either redesign the system or convert to battery powered blower. Otherwise, it functions as it should. I am pleased with its function and purpose.
