I bought it because I have been very satisfied with the back pack sprayers. I have 2 of the back pack sprayers and they have been very dependable. The hand held sprayer has continued my pofessional satisfaction. It will provide many years of service in my career as a professional gardener and designer.
I actually bought two of these---one for herbicides and one for non-herbicides. Good quality, easy to use. I have had a little problem with some dripping out the end after I have released the trigger.
I already had this sprayer which I use for insecticide and fungicide applcations in the landscape and for our small vegetable orperation. I liked it so much that I got a second one which is dedicated to spot treatments of weeds with glyphosate.
I won't buy any other brand of sprayer. Solo is 100% dependable! They are easy to pump, and hold their pressure, and give us no problems what so ever!
I use this sprayer for "spot spraying " Round-up, times when I only need to do small areas .When I don't want to mix up big tanl fulls . Has served me very well. Also have one I use for Wilt-Pruf .
