Great piece of equipment. Very nice users manual. Can’t wait to put it in use. I feel so relieved this product is available and looks heavy duty and ready for use.

This machine worked well for what it's designed to do. I used it on low output which fogged up a gallon of solution in about 45 minutes.I then ran a full tank of clean water trough it as a precaution in cleaning outside.

This machine is extremely well built, has an excellent motor and gets right down to business. It saved me many hours of spraying and fumbling around. It produces a LOT of thick fog and you can adjust it to fine or almost drenching. It filled a 3500 sq ft space with fog with no problem. Just buy this and it will make your problems go away!

I ordered the Createch Commander cold fogger machine. This was to apply an anti-mold liquid treatment to the crawlspace under the house. I had never done this before, but the machine is simple and easy to use. I liked it's basic and sturdy design, where the quality is obvious. I got it in place under the house, and within an hour and a half, I was able to apply the liquid in the affected areas in the crawlspace. It only took this long due to fogging an area, then repositioning the machine to get all the areas affected from a water leak. The Commander worked as advertised,and was east to clean with warm water with a little dish soap as recommended. The Commander made easy work of what would have been a tough job without it! Nice to still find quality things made in the USA! If you have the need, this is a Great product.

This is a great fogger when used for mold control. If you do not want to read the Mold testing methodology below, I would recommend using Mr Clean – Multipurpose Cleaner over much more expensive and less effective chemicals such as Concrobium (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B009AN7Y2U/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1).The House Environment:I bought a Fix-er-upper 3000sq' home from the early 1900's that had a large quantity of standing water in the basement and was shut up and abandoned for about a year. Needless to say, every surface in the basement was covered in many different colors of mold and mildew that was starting to creep up the inside of the wet walls (Balloon frame, very open walls with high airflow pulling from basement to attic area).**Water was drained, and old wood debris and ruined furniture removed from basement before testing. Commercial dehumidifiers were used to drop humidity to around 50%, and removed before testing the fogger**--** PPE MUST be work when using this device and chemicals, I wore a “Bunny Suit” and approved respirator.**Fogger function:I bought this fogger and several gallons of concrobium. The fogger on its highest setting was placed in the basement and was able to create a dense fog that coated every surface in the basement, as well as allow the house to "breath" the fog into the walls and all the way up to the attic. I kid you not, after the basement was foggy with 2 gallons of Concrobium I went to carry it up to the attic for fogging and it was already dense up there on the 3rd floor. The air on the 1st floor was dense, the 2nd floor was not as foggy and was fogged separately with about 1/2 a gallon.Concrobium – Apx $35 / gal:The Concrobium wasn’t as effective as I had hoped, I left the residence and sealed it returning periodically to where the fog lasted for about 3 hours. I let the house sit for a week and inspected the Mold. (It is worth mentioning that Concrobium will not remove mold and mildew stains on it’s own.) The mold that was all different colors, persisted to stay colored, where it should have turned black or brown. The few test spots of mold that I scraped the fluffy bits off of continued to grow. I repeated the above with another week of letting the house rest. The mold was only mildly reduced, which might have been mostly caused by the drop in humidity. Fairly disappointing.**I began testing various cleaners / chemicals in a garden sprayer with the mold directly. Skip to the best one:**Mr Clean – Multipurpose Cleaner (Meadows & Rain Scent) from Walmart. – Apx $6 / gal:Repeated the same steps as the Concrobium above but with much more positive results. This cleaner not only smells good (after allowing time for proper ventilation) but it actually kills Mold and Mildew pretty much on contact, which the fogger can easily achieve. The colored Mold all turned either Black or Brown and became easy to wipe off after fogging from hard surfaces. The floor joists, which are not spotless and very absorbent (100-year-old Oak and Pine beams), do have visible reduction in mold as well as no new blooms! Fast forward several months and this is still my go to chemical after a hard rain where the basement will start getting a light must smell.

I love this thing. I got the cedar oil for an indoor pesticide and it worked like a charm. Opening and closing the sliding glass door always let flies in, and certain times of the year they can be bad. With the cedar oil pesticide, this fogger fogged the whole house in less than 10 minutes and I have a four-bedroom home. The fog is so fine of a mist it will linger in the air for over an hour. I noticed the next day bugs, here and there, dead on the floor.Its been a month now and I still have a bug free house. No more little gnats flying around my computer screen at night. I even noticed when flies come in they will be dead by the next day. I believe the cedar oil residue keeps on killing. My kitchen floor was a bit slick after use but a quick mop took care of that. I also wiped down the countertops but the cedar oil is non-toxic so you don't have to be concerned.

The product alone gets 5 stars but I deducted 1 star because I think a better set of instructions should be included with the Fogger. Luckily I found the Concrobium video which takes you through the whole process. It certainly gives out a great mist. I started on Medium and moved to low because (as the video suggested) I stopped the machine after a few minutes and found some slight liquid build up (Which by the way, the video states is the reason for the white chalk like residue other reviewers noted). I moved it to low for the rest of the room and no residue. Does this (along with the Concrobium) actually kill the mold? I honestly have no idea. We do still have mold staining which I was told would happen but really is that mold or is it just staining?? We would need a mold test kit for that and I'm not investing in one. All in all, the product worked great.
