I bought the Silvan Pro hoping for a better than average sprayer. It did not disappoint. Definitely my go to pressure sprayer for home. It seems very well constructed and robust. Time will tell.The foaming nozzle worked well when used. A good capacity sprayer for a medium sized metro block. If you dont want to spend money on a good backpack sprayer this is a must. (Would consider the Silvan Prograde sprayer based on this unit)

I own sprayers from 4 different manufacturers. This is the most expensive by at least a factor of 2 and guess what? It's the best too. Pumps up quickly even with only a litre of liquid in it. Spray pattern is really even and the brass adjustable nozzle can be set for most jobs easily. The lance is a useful length and the trigger is comfortable. Hose connection at the tank is not at the bottom which means it doesn't siphon itself empty if you are a bit careless with how you pack it up after use like one of my other ones with a rotating knob trigger. Most importantly it's never given me a spray (pun intended) like some of the cheap ones have when they've blown apart.

I really didn't think there'd be much diffence in manual pump hand sprayers - afterall they all have the same mechanism. Anyway, after my $25 hand sprayer came to the end of its life, I got one of these & I cannot belive the difference between them. If I had of known I would have got one of these all those years ago. I am going to buy another one. One for weeds & one for black spot type infections on roses etc
