    81 year old lady and just sprayed our front yard with the rechargeable Scott professional sprayer. My son boohooed my spending the money but those hand pump sprayers were killing me. WOW! So worth the money. Fast, efficient and LOVE it. Doing the side yards tomorrow and the back yard Saturday. Would do them today but have to mop and clean bathrooms.

      Patricia! I love it. The battery really saves the arm, shoulder, and time! I like the pump ones for weed killer to spot spray the lawn and driveway cracks and use my battery for plant food and lawn food. Get those bathrooms done and get back out there! I LOVE IT!

    Had a manual sprayer. Tried out the green one from big box store and that was a toy as the pickup tube was so small and had the tiniest filter with the worst pressure. Then say Doc with the My4sons sprayer. The My4sons has great pressure that's adjustable, filter at the bottom, doesn't leave product in the tank, detachable hose, etc. Charges last long. Only sprayer to get.

    I just bought a My 4 Sons M4 sprayer and used it today. It is the first electric pump one I've had. I have several likes, but the first one is generic. I love the electric pump. It allows me to spray consistently as the pump keeps the pressure constant. The spray pattern on the nozzle I chose sprayed a wider area because of the pressure. It made my day go faster! But seriously, why so many nozzles types? I guess I'm gonna have to try them all to find out.

    My4sons FTW 🙌. I couldn’t tell you how many people I’ve recommended that sprayer to. You didn’t mention it but my main reason is how cheap and available replacement parts are. Eventually the battery and pump will fail on all of them. My4sons is the cheapest by far to replace. The others you may as well buy a whole new unit

      This is good news, because I went with My4Sons. Buying parts to fix something is better than throwing it away and starting over. Heck, if I did more research, I could probably find the motor, pump and battery elsewhere. Batteries are expected to fail, but they're easy to get. Just need the right form, voltage and capacity.

    • These are extremely lightweight!
    • Use a distilled gallon water bottle for container ( I have one with handle). • The hose end fitting stays snuggly on top of it.
    • It's not intended for broadcast so it's been great for tight areas and in cases in which you don't want to kill plants or trees. 🌲 🌹

      I have but not with glyphosate. I use a separate 1 gallon for that. Everytime I use a sprayer I run water throughout the whole system so it is fresh for the next use. Now that i have a few sprayers I have one for herbacide and one for fertilizer. I feel that is the best practice. When I had only one and used a herbacide I only mixed enough so I didn't have it sitting in the tank. I feel when you let it sit it absorbs into the plastic.

      Honestly the LT Pro petra is nice because it has the smallest battery making it the lightest. But build quality you can't beat the my4sons. It's personal preference. The petra has more plastics, where as the my 4 sons has metal attachment and spray tips. MY4SONS is American made where as the petra is not (to my knowledge) if that matters. I love my 4 sons though. It's built to last and you can feel it.
