Rocky Mountain Goods Pressure Pump Mist Sprayer Bottle for Plants, Gardening, Fertilizer, car Washing - 1.5 Liter - Adjustable Brass Nozzle for Mist or Stream - Locking Switch for Continuous Spray

Update 4:I'll consider this my final update (probably). The original sprayer lasted 9 months. Sadly, I'm the one that killed it. In 9 months, I've dropped the darn thing a good half dozen times or more, typically just low altitude drops, but a few from as high as 3 feet onto tile and/or concrete. A few days ago, I dropped it one last time and the bottle landed at just the wrong angle on the pressure release valve. The threads in the bottle stripped, so the valve no longer makes a tight seal. Now, I suppose 9 months may not sound like a long time, but as I said, I was the cause of the failure, and do keep in mind (read my previous review/updates), this is a daily-use product used by a custodian at a school. I've been using it all along as a misting-type applicator for our quat-based disinfectant/cleaner, filling it and emptying it completely on a daily basis. With the onset of COVID-19 a few months ago, that workload more than doubled. For general purpose watering and chemical application where this sprayer isn't being used and abused on a daily basis, your results may well be a few good years of service.As much as I praise this sprayer, it should also be said that there are just a few quirks that really started to show themselves particularly after the COVID-19 workload started. Primarily, the green plastic areas are actually kind of brittle. It could have been made out of a thicker or heavier-duty plastic. Yes, it took a 3-foot drop to break the handle and another 3-foot drop to crack half the plastic off the plunger, but it did still break. Also, the spray nozzle can get to be a little fiddly sometimes. It happened on occasion that I'd have to grab my little pair of pocket pliers to adjust the spray because the nozzle stuck in place. I also eventually had to do a vinegar soak to loosen up some minor scaling that developed, which was probably why the valve started getting stuck in the first place. And, as I said in my original review, there is a very tiny adjustment range between "fine mist" and "coarse mist". Just twisting the nozzle as little as a millimeter or two is all it takes. I never actually used the sprayer as a jet spray, so I was always micro-managing that tiny little range based on the type (and orientation) of material I was spraying.When COVID-19 came around, I convinced my boss to order these sprayers in bulk because of how excellent their performance was. We now use them district-wide. Yes, my original one is officially retired now, but I'm still using the second one I bought and have gladly opened up a third sprayer to replace the first. Yup, I'm still dual-wielding, and yes, it's still making the process of disinfecting the building light years faster than it was with the typical sprayers we were using.Update 3:Enter COVID-19 and the need to disinfect an entire school. With two of these sprayers, one in each hand, I was able to quickly spray our disinfectant onto walls, cabinets, chairs, desks, lockers, and everything else with ease. The finer aerosol-type mist provided great coverage on vertical surfaces, and dialing the nozzle to a slightly coarser spray put down a lot of volume in short time on horizontal surfaces. For best effectiveness, we still needed to wipe down the horizontal surfaces to guarantee sufficient spread of our product, but using two of these sprayers, one in each hand, cut down the time it took to disinfect the entire building by at least 30% compared to traditional spray bottles or buckets and cloths. Also, of course, very little hand fatigue was involved, which is great since I have mild carpal tunnel in both wrists. The only downside to using this product to disinfect is the amount of liquid it holds. 1.5 liters does great for light duty work, but when an entire building needs comprehensive spraying, I had to cart around buckets and refill the sprayers with a funnel on the fly. A larger capacity garden sprayer may have been more efficient in this case, but we had to work with the tools we had available, and these little sprayers were real champs. Probably 20 gallons or more (I wasn't counting) was sprayed through them and they never complained once. Even the one with the handle I broke worked flawlessly.Update 2:Yup, jinxed myself. The other day, I accidentally dropped the sprayer from about three feet up onto tile. It landed directly on the bend in the handle, causing a few chips to come off the handle. Still works just fine, but now I have an excuse to get a second one.Update:Five months on, being filled and almost completely dispensed at least five times a week, this sprayer is still chugging along beautifully. I haven't seen a single sign of it slowing down or wearing out. I even commit the cardinal sins of not completely emptying it and not releasing all the pressure when I put it away every day. Yes, the cleaner I use is neutral, so there are no acids trying to eat it up, but the sprayers provided by our chemical provider rarely last longer than 3-4 months before something breaks down on them using this same cleaning product, so I'm considering this a resounding success for now. When this poor sprayer finally shows some real signs of aging, or when I retire in 20 or so years (whichever comes first), I'll be sure to update my review and let y'all know.Original Review:I work as a custodian at a school where the policy is to use the safest chemicals possible to get the job done efficiently. One cleaner we use in the restrooms and on desktops is an apply-and-let-dry disinfectant. Needless to say, we do a lot of applying. The pump sprayers we get from our chemicals supplier are pretty low quality, so I decided to try something new. My criteria being that the sprayer can apply a fine, voluminous spray (mimicking an aerosol) without requiring a ton of pumping to keep up the pressure. With this sprayer's nozzle dialed down to the "closed" position, I get a very fine mist with good coverage. Just a tiny twist toward "open" and the volume sprayed goes up quite a bit with only a slightly coarser spray. I'm actually quite impressed, though it seems that the nozzle can be just a bit finicky... "Just right" and "nope" are less than a millimeter apart.I've only used this sprayer for a week so far. It has been emptied and refilled ten or so times. The initial results for my purposes are excellent. It pumps up fast, retains pressure for quite a while in use, and the fine mist does an excellent job making sure an entire surface is covered instead of being "spotty" like one often gets with other inexpensive sprayers. But just how good this sprayer actually is will depend on how long it holds up to heavy use. So far, the price tag is much cheaper and the construction quality is better than the ones we can get from our chemicals supplier, so I have pretty high hopes for a long lifespan. For the sake of making a more useful review, however, I'll try to remember to update this review when/if the poor sprayer croaks.

Definitely like this. Only thing is that I end up turning the nozzle sometimes and at first I’ll get either a jet stream or a very uneven flow of water. But once I fix that it’s great.

the smaller glass sprays i got are being used ..this one is a bit big...

Works just like you would expect, awesome and built sturdy for the long run

This is a warning as well as a review! I ordered one of these to use in my home garage. I thought it would be a great tool to hold and dispense parts cleaner. BIG MISTAKE!! I filled the bottle with parts cleaner and the first use was perfect and I hung the bottle on a hook for latter use. To my surprise and pain the parts cleaner was able to make it way threw the seals in the pump and when I pulled up on the pump handle I received a face full of parts cleaner. The cleaner went up my nose, in my mouth and eyes. Stunned by the blast of parts cleaner I dropped the bottle on the floor and maid my way in to the house as quickly as possible. After flushing my eyes with cool water from the sink for about 10 minutes the burning stopped. By the time I got back to the garage the bottle has leaked most of the parts cleaner on the floor and now eyes & nose burning I had a mess to clean up! I was so made that I tossed the bottle in the trash without thinking of returning it......

Sturdiness, locking spray

I was hoping I could use this when cleaning my bike rather than using the garden hose. Pump was cheap and didn't work at all - not even once!It blows my mind that a company makes and markets a product this bad. Guess I'll go back to using garden hose to clean my bike.

I use this sprayer for my Seranade to fight blight in my garden. Strong, heavy duty worth the money
