This is my 3rd 425 Solo Sprayer.  I keep them at rental properties I manage so I don't have to bring haul them around, as they are often full of liquid.

I have tried many sprayers through the years... and in general, back mount is my fav.  I also have the back mount solo battery sprayer...while it is nice to not have to pump, it adds a lot of weight, size and u always have to remember to charge it up.  Then, the batteries don't last forever... so if you use these for occasional home use, and your back is strong enough to suppor this weight, this pump model is by far the BEST unit to own.  I have not had one fail on me yet...and no one wants to mess with repairing an item like this.  I guess at some point, the seals will wear down, and I will have to replace them, not a big deal.  my oldest one is 4 yrs old.

I have used the carry cylinder sprayers...wears my fingers out holding all that weight... I have tried the ones on wheels... hard to always get it through areas, gets stuck on rocks... if your back can handle it, this is the way to go.

BEWARE... the only weak link with such a heavy device on your back...is getting it ON your back... these weigh about 50 lbs fully loaded...so chances of injury are greatest when u try to get the pack ON your back.  I find a ledge, about back height, and fill it there, then back myself up into the sprayer, and put my arms through shoulder straps.  quite simple.  OTOH, if you try to lift this off the ground onto your back, beware of injury.... of course, if you are 20 yrs old and a football lineman, well, this statement prob. doesn't apply, but to the general population, it DOES apply, so give this some thought...

The ergonomics is very good, the pump works very well, one hand pumps, the other hand sprays...its quite the work out.  But you can unload all 4 gallons in 20 minutes when going full bore, so not so long on your back.

If you use these a LOT, such as daily, u might want to consider buying better strap system, or add padding to this system...its fine for occassional use, but repeated use would benefit with better padding... u can buy many kinds of add on strap systems...although I never bought any, as I only use these once a week at the most.

the plastic holder is robust, the best of any sprayer I have ever used.  The cap is heavy duty, it has survived many drops without any issues.  wide mouth, easy fill.... Solo thought of everything and the price is very competitive with cheap imports...  kuods to Solo...

I really like this sprayer.  I much perfer it to the Ace ones I have.  Pressurizes easily, easy to carry around, and has a good choice of nozzles.  I use this one for lawn broadleaf control.  Perfect for the job.

We just moved into a new house with grass, trees, shrubs, all sorts of flora.  This High Pressure Chrome Garden Hose Nozzle has come in so handy!  It has 8 different spray patterns: jet, mist, soaker, flat, shower, fan, cone, and center.  All work great, not a big fan of the soaker though. The trigger has finger grooves so it fits well in my hand and doesn't feel cheap. There is also a knob to control the pressure or water flow so that you can water more delicate plants or areas.  Strong enough for washing cars, especially on jet it is like a pressure washer.  Center is similar to jet but not as strong, this is one we use often.  Also, it does not leak where it is connected to the hose, a huge plus!  No wet sleeves!  It is also attractive with its black and chrome design.  There is a 100% lifetime warranty so this is a good deal!

Great sprayer, very well built.  I have not a had a lot of usage but so far I really like this nozzle, it is heavy duty and works great.

This is a FIRST CLASS professional sprayer. We are 100% organic and use this to spray primarily neem and citronella to control whiteflies, aphids, and fungus on our fruit trees. I've gone through at least 3 plastic sprayers such as you'll find locally, and they've all failed within a year of so. The sturdy construction and obvious quality and all metal parts remind one of how tools and equipment used to be - made to last.

This is a really good quality watering spray nozzle. By far the best I have used. It feels strong and has a large selection of spray patterns. It has a flow adjuster so that you can regulate the water pressure which is nice when watering new plants in your garden.  Solid built.  I have had some that fall apart after a use or two - this one will stand up to being used a lot!  Great product.

This garden hose sprayer is easy to grip, easy to dial a different spray preference, and is comfortable in my hand. It has enough weight that it seems like it's a quality sprayer, meaning it'll last and not easily break. There are many spray patterns to choose from, some giving a heavier spray, some with less water that is better for water conservation. There is one that will give you a jet spray that'll reach far areas, one that's a soaker that is much more appropriate for getting at the roots of a close plant, and a few mist options. What I really like is the little tab that can be flipped to hold the handle in the on position which makes extensive watering times easier because I don't have to continuously squeeze the handle. Take a look at my video and see where I've sampled each spray.

I received this garden hose sprayer at a steep discount so I could evaluate it, then give my honest, unbiased, review.

This model works well for household grade pressure sprayer etc. It comes partially assembled in box but takes no time at all to remove and add the handle. No tools required to put this baby together. Unit comes with everything needed including the siphon hose. Unit  packaging does not include the reservoir for detergent. which is a bummer. Makes no sense? I made one out of a 1 quart plastic bottle and hung it off the side close to the injection port etc.

Anyway I briefly followed the instructions, filled the oil and gas tanks and connected it to water. Set the choke to full, turned the unit on and pulled the rope to start it. It started on the first pull and ran smoothly. I used it to clean the dirt and mold from the front walkway and it did a great job. Unit ran for over an hour with no performance issues. I'll be putting this sprayer to the test later this week on the rest of my house and the deck of a trailer.

Completely satisfied with product

Exactly what I needed for a modest budget. This sprayer works well with a 50/50 mix of paint and thinner. The flow adjust is perfect and clean up is pretty easy. I set my regulator for 35 psi for the first try and it was exactly right. We set the flow for a thin coat for the first and second coats, then dialed it up a bit for a heavier coat on the final spray. VERY nice unit and didn't break the bank.

The sprayer is sturdy and built of quality materials.  In particular, it has a metal spray nozzle, so that it will not be damaged every time it touches something like the plastic one on my previous sprayer.  Everything on this sprayer works well.  The pressure relief feature is very nice.  My only complaints are (1) I prefer a sprayer where you can see the liquid level through the tank, so you can easily fill it to the proper level, and (2) it required a lot of assembly and the instructions were not very clear.

Excellent low budget sprayer...wirh pre mixed round up. Can't beat it! The extending / folding nozzle is a great idea! Lightweight...beats straps cutting intoyour shoulders. Refillable helps reduce waste. I can shoot a weed accurately at 10'! Very happy with this product.

Bad ass sprayer!!  I don't know what these cost right now on Amazon, but the price kept dropping when I was buying it. Went down like $80 total between when I saved it to favorites to when I bought it.  Half the price of buying it at HD or Lowes.  We had to use a 75' hose on it to reach up to the second story mansard roof on our apartment building and it sprayed full force even at 35' high and 75' of hose.  Made our place look sharp!!

This purchase reflects my decision to never again buy a cheap consumer-grade sprayer that gets used twice in the summer, then craps out the following spring.  This Smith sprayer was used to apply a bleach solution to moldy framing members in my crawl space, but I expect it to become a jack-of-all-trades, master-of-many.  The sprayer assembled easily and appears to be robustly constructed.  All seals were tight and leak-proof.  It is stable on the floor.  Easy to pump and pressurized with a reasonable number of strokes.  Wand and hose are long enough to be convenient without being cumbersome.  Wand holder clip was secure and the tip holder is a nice feature.  Trigger is comfortable and the flow responds well to the trigger (shut off cleanly).  Sorry, but I can't speak to its long-term durability yet.  But based on early evidence, I expect better things from it than I've gotten from the garden store varieties.

This garden hose sprayer nozzle works so well! It switches spray modes easily and smoothly with a turn of the dial. You can choose from 8 different modes to best suit your current needs. I've owned plenty of sprayer nozzles over the years and this one is one of the most impressive nozzles I've ever used. It's great quality, heavy but comfortable to use and a light enough trigger that it doesn't wear your hands and fingers out holding it down. There is also a small metal latch you can hook the trigger into to lock it in the "on" position so you aren't having to hold it at all if you don't want. This is perfect for regular watering of your plants and grass and a million and one other things. Since you  can set it to give a powerful, strong spray it works well for spraying down driveways and decks or you  can adjust it for a lighter spray or even a mist for delicate plants. I like using it for washing the dog, too, and this way he doesn't leave that horrible wet dog smell all over my house!  This definitely isn't your kmart quality sprayer and is made of thick and durable materials for years of use. I'm extremely pleased with the quality and price and think this is a great purchase.
I was provided my sprayer nozzle free or for promotional price for testing and evaluation purposes. I was not paid for my review and was asked only to provide any feedback I may have regarding the product. My review is solely based on my experience and honest opinions after having tested it out myself.

I used several of the cheaper imports and they would wear out quickly. This sprayer had excellent reviews and I can see why. Very easily to use and clean. No problems and I would recommend this to others.

I'm finding the Chapin SureSpray a big help with my spraying needs. I now can mix up 2 1/2 to 3 gallons of spray at a time and dispense it easily as a fine spray or stream to reach the high foliage on our fruit trees. Keeping the pressure up is easy as the pump can be operated while you spray. I find the straps adequately comfortable and can load the sprayer onto my back after filling it by lifting it onto a table first; it sits upright on it's metal base frame without tipping over. (It's too heavy when full to attempt shouldering it from the ground). The spray pattern is very easily adjusted via a twist at the nozzle. The wand is long enough so that bending is not necessary to reach ground weeds. And the curved tip makes it easy to spray the bottoms of leaves in the garden without interfering with other types of spraying. I've had no problems with clogging or corrosion: The tip appears to be plastic. The pump works to pressurize a small chamber within the tank rather than pressurizing the whole tank as typical hardware store sprayers do. That means you get pressure almost immediately when you operate the pump and can keep the pressure up easily as you spray. Pumping is very easy although I forget to keep pumping sometimes so my spray pattern will then vary. Not a big deal. My only complaint with the entire unit is that it is uncomfortable against my bony back when it is loaded with more than a gallon; a bit of padding on the tank and a waist strap to keep the unit from shifting as you pump would both be welcome.
