Kingfisher PS4003 Pump Action Pressure Garden Sprayer,5 Litre

Excellent, compact and sturdy, great value to.

I needed a pressure sprayer to apply some algae and mould killer to the flags on the patio. This seemed popular on this site - and cheap too - so this is what I got. And it works well enough once it's set up, but you might want to learn from my mistake and fill it with some water for a trial run before using it in anger. This isn't an expensive item and that shows in some parts. The bottle and pump bits are fine but the sprayer parts seem fragile, particularly the tube that connects the handle to the spray head; I suspect that this won't survive me accidentally treading on it, so I'll just have to be careful. Having set it up - that's not complicated and doesn't take long - I filled it with algae killer and water and thought I'd be good to go. This was a mistake - not a huge one, and soon rectified, but a mistake nonetheless. See, the thing is that even when I thought I'd set it up, I found I still needed to make adjustments. Some of the connections needed screwing up a bit tighter, and the spray head which wasn't attached correctly needed to be taken off a reconnected, and then adjusted to give the spray pattern I wanted. Making all these adjustments meant that I and bits of the garden got covered in algae killer solution, which was irritating. It would have been better if I'd put a litre of water in it first and used that to get everything set up and if you buy one of these, I'd recommend that's what you should do. But when I did get it set up and working, it was fine. Because of the fragility of that spray arm I have my doubts about how long it's going to last, but that just means I'll have to try and be less clumsy than usual when I use it. So four stars for this then; it works, I like it and for what you get for the price you pay it's fine but that concern over how long it weill last stops it from getting the full five stars.

Does exactly what I need it to do, spray weed killer on larger areas of land. You do need to regularly pump the sprayer to maintain pressure but then I would have thought you need to do that to any manual pressurised sprayer. Cannot fault it and been using regularly since purchase.

Wow what a great spray pump for the money. I can't believe this was £7.05. It had such great reviews too so thought I had nothing to lose. It was a great choice. I have often needed one of these and often borrowed my mums, so it was high time I bought my own. I used this for mixing moss killer liquid 4:1 with water. It's so easy to do with this sprayer as its a 5 litre one with the markers of 1,2,3,4 & 5 litre stages up the side of it. I poured the moss killer to the 1 litre marker, poured the 4 parts of water in to the 5 litre marker for a perfect 4:1 ratio mix, then pumped up the pressure and started spraying. It was really easy. This comes with a strap to attach for carrying on your shoulder etc. I just used it as a carrying handle. It's not easy to pick up this canister without out it once it's full. You pump the handle to build up the pressure in the canister, then you can lock the handle into grooves on the lid which then double up as a carrying handle. When spraying and it starts to loose pressure just pump the handle again. There is a little red release valve on the canister too so you can release the pressure once you've finished spraying. The fine mist nozzle/rod did fly off the end of mine on the fist couple of times but that was my fault for not putting the rubber seal up the nozzle rod far enough. It needs to be put about an inch from the end before attaching to the hose part and screwing it on. This is fab for the price and cheaper than any garden centre. If in doubt.....buy it.

Had a few of these now - not because they are so good but because they are cheap enough to throw away after a few uses. If you use with any type of water / chemical / solvent mixture then they tend to block up and stop working or leak after just a few uses. Maybe if you can be thorough with them and clean them meticulously after usage they may last longer but if you're looking for an easy to use long lasting sprayer then spend the extra money and look for an upgrade - I would say this is light use only.

Build:Solid plastic container, feels a lot sturdier than most of the sprayers I have purchased in the past. Price: Cheap for what you get. So this will be short and sweet. The sprayer is great. I was almost going to review it with a 3 star rating, but after a few attempts I realised that the leak was my fault. There a number of places you need to make sure you have attached all the bits correctly. I had not, so whilst spraying weed killer (see http://amzn.to/1dVDwLg) I ended up dripping all over my garden wear and shoes. Not a great start to the day. But I have used it a few times since and found that not all the nozzles had been tightened correctly. Now it works like a dream. Easy to carry without the shoulder strap. You can just use the pump handle to pick it up and take it with you. Even when loaded with 3l of water, still easy to carry and manage. The pump handle is made from a strong plastic, so it does not feel like you'll break it as you pump. About 10 pumps is enough to get spraying, I have found that simply leaving the bottle on the floor and pumping as you spray helps you get the continuous flow. I have not really tried more than 13 pumps, not sure what that would do to the bottle or the seal. Although I am sure it can handle it. So far, it has only been used for weed killing, I have read nothing about it being used for fence and deck spraying. It might be possible, but unless it has a big sign on the box stating this I am not going to try. Do not want to ruin such a great product.

Assez bon produit dans l'ensemble, le pression et courte mais suffisant moyenne surface le prix et raisonnable. Je recommande celui ci.

capiente e comodo spruzzatore a pressione con comoda lancia di facile utilizzo con la bretella di sostegno anche per i meno esperti

Used it for spraying a herbicide on my lawn. Worked ok the first time and then started to leak at the connections. Replaced the rubber seals but did not solve the issue. If you are fine with it being disposable after the first use, then buy it.

Good quality and easy to operate manually.

Buen producto, relación calidad-precio correcta
