FLORA GUARD 0.4 Gallon Handheld Garden Pump Sprayer - Adjustable Nozzle, Pressure Pump, Safety Valve, Pressure Water Spray Bottle Ideal for Watering, Fertilizing, and Other Cleaning Solutions (1.5L)

I recently got one of these kinds of sprayers from another brand (which I won't name, I think it causes the review to get filtered sometimes). A pump mister is great for reducing the strain of tasks that require a good amount of spraying, such as misting my gecko's humidity box or misting seedlings/cuttings. For my gecko's safety, I never mix any fertilizers or pesticides in the sprayer, so I never have to worry about possible remnants post-cleaning being sprayed in her humidity box.The first sprayer from the other brand arrived missing the entire tip of the nozzle. The second arrived whole, but the misting setting was pretty pitiful. I gave up and returned, then bought this sprayer. This sprayer is, in basically every way for me personally, much better.The good:1. The mister setting is a true fine mist. Awesome!2. It looks nicer, sleeker. It holds a greater volume of water than the previous one I'd tried (0.4 gal vs 0.2gal) but has practically the same footprint. I would guess the 0.2gal one I had was shaped oddly to optimize something about the pressure or ensuring every last drop of water is accessible to the pump, but that's not a big deal to me. As far as I can tell this one works fine while looking better.3. It seems better built. I've seen others mention the ergonomics could be worked on, and I agree. People that struggle with grip might find it difficult to twist parts or grab onto the top to twist it off. However, compared to my previous one, the handle is more comfortable I also like the button instead of lever.4. Release valve - my previous didn't have one of these! To release the pressure I would have to just unscrew the top a little. I really like the release valve as it saves a little hassle. It's also serves as a visual reminder to actually release the pressure once you're done, since not doing so can cause leakage or other problems.5. Doesn't make really weird noises when pumping. Of course it does make some noise, but the other brand I tried would hiss and make really odd whistling noises. I don't mind that occurring if that's just how something functions, but this sprayer proves it wasn't necessary. I suspect it was yet another indication of some issue with the other brand.For cons:1. I don't particularly care for the directional nozzle and intend to keep it straight — I suspect it might be more prone to breaking otherwise so I could do without the option.2. The main true gripe I have with the bottle is that, since it has fill measurement lines on the exterior, I expected it to be at least a little translucent so you can see where the water is at. This doesn't seem to be the case, so the fill lines are practically useless. I'm just careful not to overfill it and I leave it at that.'I hope the sprayer is long-lasting. I really like it so far.

Well constructed, choice of mists, and makes watering of garden plants convenient. It performs great. I am completely satisfied with this purchase.

Thick and durable material, try not to adjust the position of the nozzle around to much or it will leak. It’s not hard to fix though, figure it out, i don’t feel like explaining.

When it arrived, I was excited to use it as it was my first pressure pump sprayer to water a small garden, it was a great size. It was supposed to replace an old, heavy watering can.I followed the provided instructions and made sure not to put too much pressure nor seal the bottle too tight. It worked just fine, albeit the small amount of mist it produced. That might have been out of not putting too much pressure. After I was done with it, I made sure to release any remaining pressure using the built in release valve.The following time I used the product, it would no longer hold the pressure as you could here air hissing out of the top of the bottle. I suspect it may be a faulty valve or the bottle seal itself, since we made sure was properly closed and the nozzle was correctly attached and sealed as well. All the water that's supposed to mist comes out as just a drip.Really disappointed, I thought it was well-made for plastic but I guess it wasn't. Going to have to return to the standard watering can.

UPDATE: I returned the first sprayer and it was replaced. All seems to work well and sprays great! It will be a good tool to have in the greenhouse for seed starting!Original review: Came without the brass nozzle and, though I reached out by email and phone, finding the piece that makes it work will be the only way to make it usable. Otherwise, it's an attractive way to store plant water and nothing more.

I was apprehensive about getting this due to some of the negative reviews. If they tend to cover the same subject, that's generally not a good sign imo. However, Benjiplant (on YT) uses this and so I decided it was worth some risk since I could return it if there were any issues. So far so good! No complaints from me. The one thing that I do wish is that the mist was finer. It's pretty good but I have a normal mist spray bottle and comparing the two, this one produces much denser mist as opposed to airy.Overall though, this has reduced the strain on my hand with having to constantly pump the other bottle by allowing me to just push the button so I cannot complain! It is cheaply made (completely plastic outside the nozzle) but it's a thick plastic so feels very sturdy.

I saw Benjiplant on YouTube use this and was immediately drawn to it. It hold a good amount of water, sturdy and looks so sleek ! I love it !

The build quality on this sprayer is horrible. Scratchy seaming, flimsy pump, flimsy nozzle, and worst of all, a single gasket is used to seal the handle to the reservoir, so of course it leaks air like crazy. It just doesn’t hold the pressure at all. The entire time you’re using it, you can hear it hissing and whistling from all the air coming out. Don’t waste your money.
