I will start with a word of caution, the nozzles and extension lance offer by Amazon as what other items people buy are not compatible with this sprayer!!!!!
The sprayer is a bit fiddly to assemble but a bit of logic and the instructions get you there.
The lance comes with three spray options built in ,see above caution. the lance is of more than adequate length for most jobs without being unwieldy. The bottom shoulder straps need a little modification to improve security, not too difficult to sort out.
In use the sprayer is comfortable even when fully loaded, all three spray options work well and are simple to change between.
From initial trials looks as though it will do the job for years to come.
We put it together without any problems and it has worked well.

Before this I had a smaller hand pump type which I had to keep refilling. This unit is so superior and I only have to fill it once. The nozzle adjustment means I can spray a larger area so it’s much quicker as well. Very pleased.

As a 5’3 woman i would struggle with a larger capacity than this! It is well designed and ergonomically shaped. May have to shorten the pressurising arm, but otherwise it is spot on! Found the loose fit of the filter inside the filling port a bit of a puzzle, since hozelock fittings usually snap into place. Odd…and could tip during filling, which would make it pointless. Make sure you push pipe right into wand when you put it all together or it will keep falling off under pressure. Also, tighten filling cap as much as possible or you will get a bath when you put back-pack on! Did have to shorten pump handle as i found the arm too long. Simple job with hacksaw, drill and self-tapping screw.
