SideKing Battery Powered Backpack Sprayer 4 Gallon, Powerful Electric Garden Sprayer with 12V Rechargeable Battery, Telescopic Wand with Trigger-Lock and 4 Mist Nozzles (Charger Included)

I bought and used this powered sprayer for about 6 months before I write this positive review. I used a Chapin powered sprayer before which was a nightmare, I ran through four Black & Decker batteries since it was not sealed in a compartment like this one. A design flaw I think, no wonder it is no longer on the market.I tried out a few other sprayers, one a famous brand name was dead on arrival. This relatively cheap sprayer is surprisingly good. The rectangular tank is compact, the battery lasted for at least 2 hours for my use. The negative point is the sprayer heads are flimsy, but I replaced it with my old sprayer head.I did not use the supplied shoulder straps and cannot comment whether they are comfortable or not. A reviewer mentioned he/she does not know where to find a replacement battery, well, it is a 12V Li-Ion Type B cordless drill battery available on Amazon.Overall, I am very happy with this sprayer.

It has made spraying weeds easy and quick since you don't have to stop to pump the sprayer. I wish I would have brought a battery powered sprayer long ago! I'm very pleased with the sprayer.

TL;DR - Not a high-end product, but solid enough for the infrequent use of a homeowner, but not commercial use. Being the former myself and knowing all this, I would still buy again.Decent packaging. Overall construction is - acceptable. This isn't going to get super frequent use, so I suspect it will last a while for me, but it is clear materials are bare minimum. I would NOT buy this for regular/commercial use. Only really for a casual weekend warrior.The main plastic body is fairly rigid, but the extrusion is a little sloppy. Lots of little plastic tags and seams from the mold they used that weren't tight enough and/or weren't removed after. None are in frequently handled areas, but can be easily cut/sanded off regardless. Mine also came with 4-5mLs of water inside the device. I imagine this was from QI testing at the factory as there seems to be no other indication that this is a returned product. No lawn chemical smell inside, just a bit musty from the humidity.Straps and back padding are again, bare minimum quality. They will do the job just fine, but are clearly not high-end. Nylon strapping is literally rough around the edges, but fully functional. Again, I think it will last, just a small detail. I will say that the shoulder pads are quite comfortable compared to two other sprayers I've used years ago. I don't think carrying 16L in this thing will be uncomfortable. Also, I am a large build at 6'3" [190cm] and the straps are plenty enough for me and someone much smaller.Battery [nominal 12V, 2.5Ah] was shipped with a half charge. Ideal for long-term battery storage. Charging port on battery is a little off-center from the hole cut for it, but is still usable. Charger is 12.6V at 1A. It is pretty light weight, but 12V chargers are pretty simple and even is it should die, a replacement would be super easy to source. I even have a couple in my "Box of Wires" that would work. For those of you with hacking /tinkering souls like me: battery 'seems' to be a standard battery I've seen elsewhere, but I imagine wiring in your own later if this one dies wouldn't be too hard, but this is just my opinion.Can't use it at the moment, but will update with more details after use. I'll do a time and rate check on the output if I have a chance.

I accidentally ordered the sprayer and when it arrived, I thought it would be a good idea. Save all the pumping, so I kept it. The first time I used it it seem to work fairly well. The next time I tried it, I had two issues, right in the middle of the handle the spray was coming out of A small hole. Also, it would not stay primed, as a result it did not spray consistently. I thought I would return it, but I am a few days past the return date. I would think twice about ordering this unit.

We have an enormous, long gravel driveway. We had tried the small pump bottles of Roundup and had even tried the torch technique. The grass just kept coming back. I got this for Father's Day for my husband and it worked like a champ. He was able to do our entire driveway (and has since done spraying for my dad, too). The coverage was great. Sprayed out heavy. The grass is finally dead.

The assembly was easy and quick. I used it for the fast time yesterday, and boy what a difference from the handpump one I have. Having COPD, the pumping would leave me winded before starting to spray, but with this battery pump, I can walk faster and not have to stop to pump the sprayer. As far as for me, it is well worth the money. My only regret is that I wish I wold have gotten it a long time ago.

I like the nozzle interchangeability. The Backpack can be heavy if you put 4 gallons in, which I did. The smaller 1 gallon carry and pump by hand are slow and tedious. I did my whole back and front yard in 30 minutes .

Just pulled it out of the box and it has a liquid substance. Product is clearly used. Dont have time to return due to the immediate need to use before a cookout.
