Yes, a padded waste band and shoulder harnesses. Generally speaking, it's pretty comfortable to use even with 4 gallons of liquid.

Yes, the sprayer has padded shoulder straps with a cross strap across the chest. It's very much like wearing a framed backpack with the fit being good as long as the straps are adjusted properly. I've used it many times filled with 4 gallons (total weight 35+ pounds). It helps to fill it sitting on something high up so you don't have to try to lift it to put it on or having to squat down. A bench or tall chair can help a lot. Highly recommend first filling it with a gallon or less and putting it on to adjust the fit and feel. Also, the picture that shows the pump handle in the vertical position is misleading. Handle has to be positioned about parallel to the ground during use.

Yes, shoulder straps and waist band are padded. My one suggestion to improve this sprayer is to have a handle near the top so I can carry it around easier (when I'm prepping it for use or putting away).

The information on the product shows that it comes with a padded shoulder strap, no other straps are listed.

No there is no pad on the strap but I wrapped a wash cloth around the strap and held it with velcro. This was handy for 2 reasons: I could remove it and wash it and it was absorbent for mapping up sweat.

Yes, and it's fine for me. Others said that after a few hours the straps are uncomfortable. I use the sprayer for less than an hour per outing. The only thing I want to do is tie (with something) the two shoulder straps together across my chest so they don't spread and slide off my shoulder. But that's a pretty minor complaint. I still like the sprayer very much and, yes, I'd do it again.

The fogger I have is a large pumpkin shapped plastic botton with top opening for the motor mount, sprayer, it has a flat botton and is rather heavy with the liguid and motor, I don't see how it could be converted to shoulder strap carry around, I do not know about a hose attachment as well.

Mine came with the paddle only. It feels very secure due to the plastic "teeth" on the paddle that really grip your waist band tightly. However, I did not find the paddle to be comfortable or easy to adjust. I went to the Blackhawk website and was able to order the belt loop attachment for a few bucks. It works perfect - just don't know why they don't include it in the first place.

Yes, both the shoulder and hip straps are adjustable via friction clips similar to what you find on most standard backpacks. (Just look at a school backpack) The padding does not move, but you would have to expand it pretty big to cause a problem. Something to note, the waist strap is just that. It isn't really loadbearing, it's just to keep it from flopping around.

It has adjustable Velcro straps. Works very well and is quick to install and remove.

I have the 190348. I don't know if the 350 comes with the super comfortable backpack harness, pressure regulator for spraying herbicides, brass wand and fold able pump handle. I haven't had mine for very long but I love it. Comfortable to wear for an hour or so with a full 4 gallons on board. I use the pressure regulator and spot spray weeds on a couple of acres. I haven't tried higher volume uses such as tree spraying.

Yes it comes with a padded messenger style strap which is why I originally bought the bag as I prefer that style but I find I just use the regular handles most of the time. It's just easier to sling over one shoulder as the bag is rather large.

No just adjustable straps with a center leather piece. It is a very comfortable protector though.

I'm not sure? It has loops on both arm straps. The bladder is low quality so I bought a camel bak bladder and still love the Ridgeway!!! I have used it everyday for almost 2 years.

Yes. It has a nice lower back brace and shoulder straps that have a bit of padding. I used it a lot last summer to kill posion ivy in the woods over uneven terrain and it was very stable on my back. For myself, I found that if I filled it about 3/4 of the way it made the load a little easier on my back than filling it all the way. I like it a lot and plan to get a lot of use out of it.

It has a strap that is supposed to make it compatible with every seat. It worked with our Eddie Bauer car seat really well. We liked it a lot.

I am a rather big guy and have no problem. In fact, it never occurred to me. I think it came with a shoulder strap, but if it did I got rid of it immediately. My girl friend uses one with no trouble and she is small. With the wobbly nozzle on it, it is way more effective than others that weigh more but do not have that feature. Make sure you install that for max effect.
