Durability is essential in garden sprayers, whether they're in daily use, or only brought out of the shed once a year. Although it's too early to say how reliable this sprayer will be, it has a reassuringly solid feel to it, and the fact that it can be dismantled and that spares are available from the manufacturer gives confidence that it's going to last. It performs very well in use, with none of the leaks and dribbles that cheap sprayers suffer from.
The liquid capacity is two litres less than the headline size, so the 7-litre version is likely to suit most gardeners - unless they have a very small plot indeed, the 5-litre might be more handy in the confines of a greenhouse. However, the length of the hose supplied means that the container can be left on the ground outside when spraying in confined spaces. (If the hose is found to be too long, it an be cut shorter.)
