Great size (5l). Carrying strap makes use nice and easy. Set up is straightforward. The pressure gradually drops when in use, however, all that is required is to pump it again. (15/20 pumps). The spray is fine, as you would wish.
I bought a second one of these for use with strong weedkiller. The wand allows for keeping the spray close to the ground helping to avoid plants you don’t want to kill.
although I haven’t used this yet due to having loads of rain, its just what I needed to use for me to be able to spray weed killer to enable me to keep the weeds down in more than the part of my garden plus other parts where weeds grow. Being disabled it will be great and easy too for what I need it for Thanks
Seems well put together but the issue i have is the spray nosel is not what I expected and I can’t seem to adjust the spray pattern as it just sprays side ways,without any forward direction.
Pressure seems to be okay easily maintained whilst using item.
This does do the job as far as pumping up the pressure and spraying with the wand.
However, the wand is definitely too short and the straps could have been better designed to be converted into a back pack.
Mind you, once I’ve bought the extended wand from Amazon, maybe the need for a back pack strapping will be negated.
Bought to spray patio with Wet and Forget. Seemed to give good coverage and did most of the area in one go. Had to pump a couple of times throughout spraying to maintain the pressure, but overall I was happy with it.
Used the sprayer about 4 months after I purchased it. The pressure release valve broke, the first time I used it. Contacted customer support at Spear and Jackson who promptly sent me the replacement. Have used it since without any problems. For the cost, the built quality is fine and it works well. Customer service was great. My only slight convern is that I could done with a slightly longer plastic tube attached to the spray end – I am 5′ 9″ and found myself bending a little to ensure there was no overspray of the weed killer on a slightly windy day. But it works well and does what it says on the box, hence 5*.
Using this along with SBK weed killer has kept my garden and driveway free of weeds for 2 seasons now. The bottle is very durable, easy to use and fill with a handy strap to tote around on the shoulder while spraying. I have had others. This is the bes
There is nothing for you dislike with this garden sprayer. It is very well made. The instructions for use are inked on the bottle for long time use. Takes only a few minutes to set up and spray. Cannot fault it, having already used i
A similar product in my local country store is selling for around three times the price so this was worth a shot.
Does the job perfectly well with less pumping than my old one.
One gripe is the storage of the wand. A small fixture on the side would have meant this could be held vertically instead of horizontally in the handle. This would mean storage in a shed or cupboard would be more convenient.
As it is the wand does not readily stay in the handle and I have had to adapt this with the help of some hot glue to create a better fitting.
Just used this pressure sprayer yesterday. I usually purchase Roundup weedkiller in that pre-packaged box that has an attached pump and mini sprayer (works ok, but you have to pump many times and quite often and the spray isn’t great). Well, yesterday, I felt a bit irritable about having to do the same laborious process and remembered the S&J sprayer that was sitting in my garage (never used before) and filled it with the pre-mixed Roundup instead and then pressurised it. I fiddled in the kitchen sink with the sprayer first, to get the knob to spray a broader spray rather than a singular jet stream then stepped outside onto my weed filled gravel and sprayed the effected weed area like a boss for what could have been nothing more needed than 5 minutes. It has (when pumped properly) a very effective spray and longevity and saved me time and effort due to its efficiency. Delighted with this sprayer, it does the job and from now on I will just be buying weedkiller and using the S&J sprayer instead. I also like the fact that it comes with a shoulder strap, as a fully filled sprayer is quite heavy, so having it secured on my shoulder helps a lot with walking around, ‘pointing and destroying’ with my nozzle all those nasty weeds. Would recommend.
Needs re-pressurising frequently, and there is no meaningful variability in usable spray setting ( ie the broader setting is not controllable) so useful for spraying small hard patio areas / garden features to remove algae – which was why i bought it- , probably less effective for a larger space. Probably fine on the ‘less controllable’ setting as a foliar feed , have not used as such.
The Spear & Jackson 5 litre pump action garden sprayer proves its worth in gardening tasks. With a generous capacity, it efficiently covers large areas. The pump action mechanism is user-friendly and allows for consistent spraying. Its adjustable nozzle ensures versatility, accommodating various tasks from watering to applying pesticides. The durable construction stands up to outdoor tasks. Overall, this sprayer offers convenience and reliability for those seeking an effective tool to maintain their garden with ease.
This was bought for my wife as a step up from a small hand held spray gun but not as heavy as a large back pack sprayer. Given it has a shoulder strap to make it easy to move around I think it fulfills the function well. Certainly it is a good lady like tool for the garden.
First off, the pump action is a breeze to use. It’s like magic — just a few pumps and you’re good to go. No more struggling with hand fatigue. And the 5-liter size? Perfect. I can cover my whole vivarium without stopping to refill constantly. The clear container is a thoughtful touch, too. I can see when it’s time for a top-up without any guesswork.
The adjustable nozzle is a star feature. Whether I’m giving my plants a gentle mist or targeting a specific area, it’s all easy-peasy. Plus, the mist it produces is like a soft, even blanket of moisture. My plants and my gecko are loving it, and I’ve noticed healthier plant growth.
Cleanup is a breeze, and this sprayer feels built to last. Sturdy materials make it a reliable buddy for the long haul.
Ideal for any situation whether that be outside in the garden or inside a vivarium.
It is good so far. Easy to use. I only use it twice in one month time. Will last for how long, no idea yet.
It works well but be careful how much you fill it as it can be heavy and a bit cumbersome.
So easy to fill and use, not rocket science but it was perfect for the job. Really pleased
Perfect, as described, quick delivery , using it to hold a bleach solutio
Great value for money,use one for weed killer and one for garden feed.spot on!!
The first time I used it I was decorating, it was great for the stripping. Then I went on to spray the weeds. HAPPY with my purchase.
Easy and simple to use, good for disabled hands. Anti mould spray quickly put on paths, doors and walls.
Good even coverage.
Excellent!
Works well does what it’s suppose to do and was well packaged on delivery
I use this for spraying my dilute disinfectant around my drive to get rid of dog wee and it works brilliantly
A well made and designed product which is easily assembled and easy to use. Very pleased with it.
Easy to assemble. Easy to use. Good value for money. It does what it is supposed to do and does it well.
Perfect for the job and looks good quality and long lasting. Used it for different acids to clean the patio and brickwork.
As expected and it works well. There are hooks for holding the pump handle when carrying the spray, these break off easily and one broke off on fist use.
Just the right size and works perfectly. I did also buy the extendible wand which allows me to use it without bending dow
Using mine to clean the front of house where I can’t get the hose to go. Surprisingly effective to wash down windows and doors after soaping.
Bought to spray patio.
Easy to use, works well.
All good.
Seems sturdy enough and hopefully it will last. The spring in my other sprayer head broke thereby rendering it unfit for the use intended.
Easy to use, simplicity in itself with a good spray pattern!
Well packaged, good volume for modest garden, works well. Can’t fault it. Very pleased.
I’ve used this product from cleaning the mud off my dogs paws and my wellies to cleaning the car, the patio, windows. And probably the best use is cleaning the wheelie bin out. Top purchase.
Great in the green house easy to carry around no problem
Perfect size, sturdy and instructions on the side in case you forget or throw the box away!
Deserves 5/5.
Bought this to seal my brickwork on garage instead of brushing sealant onto brickwork, worked a treat & plenty of room for sealant – water or what ever you choose to spray.
This feels like a good strong spray with a nice flexible pipe attaching spray wand to the bottle. So many cheaper makes have inflexable pipes that are hard to use.
I bought this to spray my apple and plum tress it is straight forward and easy to use no issues would recommend this to all gardeners and households
Use this a a sprayer for dragon blood alloy wheel cleaner. Works well,better than the sprayer I have for the garden, might swap them over. Good quality and worth the money.
The misting on the nozzle can be set ultra fine which is great for misting my reptile enclosures. When I need to fill water bowls or water plants, can easily adjust the nozzle to a jet.
The pressure is kept for quite an extended time so not having to constantly pump.
Just the job for spraying weed killer over a large area. The strap makes it easy to carry around. Good wide opening makes filling easy.
Purchase of pressure sprayer made it easy to spray algae removing liquid onto picket fence , which made the job a much easier task. The sprayer worked to perfection when pumped to pressure
Great vaue for money. Bought this to spray some Algon solution around my garden it’s perfect the spray is perfect on it I’ve seen a few reviews saying the spray is weak I don’t really know what they expect from a hand held sprayer if you need a powerful spay buy a jet wash if not then this is the item for you 🙂 it is ideal for small garden jobs like spraying weeds
I filled it up pressurised it and away it went, no problems really. Now used it a few times with no problems whatsoever.
This Spear & Jackson 5LPAPS Pump Action Pressure Sprayer is just what I wanted. It is not too small. This is a strong and solid spray. All in all a very good purchase.
Ps. Only used it twice, back later when I had it for a while.
Bought this sprayer for one reason. To spray conservatory muck remover on the roof. It can be used on other applications, so I may well spray the garden fence with paint later in the year. But for its use and all else. A good buy and not expensive.
I use it to clean my horse which obviously is not its intended purpose but it is fantastic, I’ve had it for a good couple months now and used it everyday, it’s gentle but powerful and super easy to use and adjust the nozzle on. It’s survived getting chewed and dropped a fair few times and is surprisingly durable, I lt has now broke so new one again it is, little tip don’t carry it from the pump but unless it’s locked or it might break lol like mine did.
This was bought for weedkiller. It was easy to fill and use as well as carry about on the garden. The spray is easily controlled too. Makes my work on the garden definitely alot easier and this was a replacement even better than the previous and also a watering can as the flow is more concentrated so goes further.
So easy to use. I use it to spray sealant onto the flat roof of my shed which is too high for me to use a step ladder to get on to. Easy to clean and put away.
Easy to use amd perfect size for what I wanted – using for spray cleaning patio with patio cleaner. Sturdy and well made
After returning faulty Screwfix backpack sprayer, this Spear and Jackson was recommended.
I was immediately impressed when it came, as I didn’t have to assemble it myself.
Apart from the spray wind, it was fully assembled.
I was testing it out (with tap water) within a minute of opening the box.
Really easy to use and holds enough for most domestic jobs.
Purchased this item 5 years ago and still works fantastically, This is with daily use. I lost a part for it recently and contacted the manufacturer direct who (in under 72 hours!!!) had posted me the spare part free of charge. If I can recommend a product on Amazon it this product right here!!
Does what it says, no complaints. Would buy again. Perfect for spraying anti-algae spray on back garden slabs. Quick and easy to use.
Got this for weeding, as you get a better spread than with a watering can and it’s less wasteful. Also, you can get the weeds directly without worrying about hitting your precious plants. You can obviously use it for other things, but I bought it mainly for killing weeds.
It’s very easy to use. Fill to the level, then pump to the limit which is clearly printed on the side. After that just point and press the trigger to spray.
It’s not rocket science. (Going by some of the reviews, it appears to be to some though.)
Previous one broken during house move. Brilliant product and would highly recommend
Had a Roundup brand Pump which lost pressure over the years – the Spear & Jackson Pump is awesome and reaches my 2nd Floor Roof easily and a distant Ivy covered wall – grea
Shoulder strap was useful for being able to move around, spraying a large patch of brambles. Directed nozzle meant less waste of product. Good size, was able to pour entire bottle of weedkiller in, necknof sprayer was wide enough that none was spilled
