  • Excellent fogger! READ

    Jun 04 '11
    Pros: Everything
    Cons: None

    Summary: I have read all the negative comments and poor reviews on this fogger. My father bought his around 1984 and had it for 21 years without a problem. Mine is on it's 8th year without one single problem. Here are a few tips that I adhere to that will ...

  • Burgess Fogger is junk

    Jul 30 '09
    Pros: When it worked, briefly, it was great.
    Cons: It's a piece of crappy junk.

    Summary: I've had a Burgess fogger for about 4 years, and I have to agree with all the bad reviews.  I read and followed the instructions to the letter, cleaned the carbon out, and it still doesn't work right.  I want to fog insects, not vaporize ...

  • No More Burgess

    Jun 17 '07
    Pros: Works fine for the first use, maybe the first season or part season.
    Cons: Very poor quality materials, seals swell, orifices plug and it fails within a few hours.

    Summary: I am, I guess, a slow learner. This was my third try with a Burgess; I am getting one season’s use per unit. With the first one, they claimed I must have used an off brand fogging oil, so it was my fault. Maybe. I typically use a couple gallons ...

  • burgess fogger aka flame thrower

    Jun 17 '11
    Pros: It worked good for a year or two.
    Cons: coil will rust even in a dry garage.

    Summary: I also have a fogger that now squirts fire instead of a fog. I believe this was caused by poor quality steel in the

  • Burgess Fogger

    May 23 '10
    Pros: Works perfect. Gets rid of the skeeters for hours
    Cons: NONE

    Summary: I've had Burgess Propane Fogger for at least 20 years & use it everyday in summer. I've never emptyed it out except when I dropped it & broke the reservoir.Relacement was 10 bucks. Best early in AM & just before dark. If this one ever

  • Slow Learner

    Nov 08 '09
    Pros: Kills insects for hours.
    Lots of fog!
    Cons: Be sure to empty the insecticide after every use.

    Summary: I bought a Insect Fogger a few months ago.  I read the online reviews before I bought it and I read the printed manual that came with the unit.  So I thought I was doing everything right.  The darned thing worked great but then clogged

  • It works fine if you use it properly

    Apr 29 '09
    Pros: Put out tremendous amounts of fog.
    Cons: Getting harder to find.

    Summary: I've been using Burgess foggers for 20 years.  I'm on my third one.  I have the propane model and will say if you use the wrong liquid to cut costs it will stop up in a matter of minutes and it's done.  You have to let the coils heat up

  • Works great -- in FL!

    Apr 15 '09
    Pros: Easy to use; works as advertised.
    Cons: Stay away from the barrel when you are applying the match -- goes "foooom".

    Summary: I've had the same unit for over 12 years with never a problem.  Clean it regularly {once per season} and it'll last.  And the skeeters and no-see-ums stay away for at least a day, depending upon

  • It Does What it Says it Will Do

    Aug 17 '08
    Pros: Does what it says it will do... Works Great.
    Cons: Still looking??

    Summary: I'm one of those odd people who actually reviews a product I like. I have owned this product for four year and have never had any problem with it! That's the deal. I really have never tried anything else, didn't have to.

  • frostbitten

    Jul 22 '08
    Pros: reliable, economical, and effective
    Cons: their fogging oil is no longer available

    Summary: I have used the Burgess Propane Fogger for eight years at the rate of about five gallons of oil per year. You would have to be brain dead to have the problems reported above. With the current American high school graduation rate at only 60 percent, I

  • OK Product - LOUSY customer service

    Jun 26 '08
    Pros: Simple, straightforward operation
    Cons: A "we don't need your business" attitude after you buy it.

    Summary: I've used one of these products for 4 years. The product works really well as long as you remember several things. One, do not squeeze the trigger more than once every 3 seconds or so. If you do, you'll feel like you are spraying napalm rather than

  • Faulty coil design no replacement parts

    Sep 05 '07
    Pros: works fine when new.
    Cons: throw away after one season.

    Summary: The unit works fine until the coil carbonizes on the inside and eventually (10 uses or one season)clogs completely. I cannot find out how to order a new

  • Flame thrower?

    Apr 30 '07
    Pros: Works great.
    Cons: None.

    Summary: Other reviewer's comments with regard to throwing flames are a fallacy. A cursory understanding of the machine would easily eliminate the flame throwing episodes. Also, not having a hair trigger would not only forego the ignition of the fogging spray,

  • chinese junk

    Jul 26 '06
    Pros: none, it's junk
    Cons: everything, it's a piece of crap, don't waste your money.

    Summary: Just go and buy disposable foggers. I'm on my second fogger in 2 years and while it works for the the first qt. of fluid my second one lasted for about 1hr of use before it clogged up. I'm dissapointed at their quality I will NEVER buy another one. Crap

  • Fogger or flame thrower?

    Jul 26 '05
    Pros: I love the smell of napalm in the morning
    Cons: I hate calling the fire department everytime I use it!

    Summary: I have a burgess fogger, er flame thrower! I can't believe they are still on the market! Each time I use it, the first two-five minutes are ensuring I'm in a location near "fire equipment". The fog erupts into a five to ten foot cloud of
