Dandy Sprayer [Posted on 2006-11-10] I've used such sprayer since I was 15, now 67. There's none other to consider.

I should have paid attention to the instructions. [Posted on 2007-04-10] The Sprayer worked great for a week or so then I noticed the liquid Fertilizer was not going down in the bottle very much. So I gave it a test and dialed the highest level and sprayed it for a good while. The liquid went down none. I took the sprayer a part and cleaned it real well. It was pluged up. I then read the read instructions and it told me to clean it well after each usage. I cleaned it and it work perfectly. I then started cleaning it every time I use it and it works well. Here is how I clean it. I filled a 2 gallon bucket with water and now every time I use the sprayer when I am finished I unscrew the bottle and stick the entire sprayer in the water and turn it on and it cleans it real well.
This might help in cleaning the sprayer. Thanks, Wally Colson
This is a good sprayer..... [Posted on 2007-09-22] After making the mistake of buying a cheapo plastic version at our local hardware store, I bought this one. No leaks, easy to use, brass fittings, this is the one to get.
Finally, no more mixing. [Posted on 2007-10-17] I spray castor oil around my yard with this thing to keep the moles away, it's so much better than lugging a 5 gallon tank of diluted chemical around.
Things I like: Good quality metal sprayer, mixing head and nozzle, comfortable grip, good quality plastic payload reservoir with ounces and milliliter marks for easy measuring, sprays a jet stream of mixed fluid for 30 feet or wider area up to about 5 feet. It's fully adjustable, you can spray 1-10 tablespoons per gallon of water or 1-10 teaspoons. Spare parts are available from the manufacturer, nice to know you don't have to throw the whole thing away when an O-ring or spring breaks.
Things I don't like: Plastic adjuster dial is hard to adjust, if you set it down in which case it will certainly fall over, fluid leaks out the air vent at the top. The plastic part on the tip that gives you a choice of narrow stream or wide pattern seems rather cheap, and eventually will fall off and get lost. There's really not much spray pattern adjustment other than that.
