For spraying weedkiller on paths etc. and spraying lawn treatment stuff too I suppose

I don't feel the need to go for a powered one

£15 job off the bay or £150+ Solo Pro range

Also, what to put in it? Some sort of glyphosphate solution I suppose?

Anyone got any experience with the Guarany one?

A farmer I asked the question of recommended this one. Had a look at his and it is undoubtedly well made. Not sure it will get enough use to warrant £90, but it isn't too bonkers

I got this from screw fix

http://www.screwfix.com/p/backpack-sprayer-16ltr/5...

The virgin sprayer

So named because it lasted about 4 pumps

Then the handle snapped off at the pivot

Utter tat

I was as gentle as I could be

having read the reviews I thought a heavy hand could be the cause of the bad reviews

But it isn't, the cause is a crap design and scrimped on materials
