    FYI , according to Ryobi the sprayer can deliver up to 90 psi. I just started using mine and am impressed. Also there is a removable strainer in bottom of tank on pump inlet. For the sprayer weighing close to 50 lbs. with 4 gallons it is easy to carry on your back.

      This is true, it didn’t weigh my back down as bad when completely filled. Good information ℹ️ on that Strainer on the inside.

      @@mainj54 I think that is a completely legit point. If you are starting from scratch, buy a sprayer from Pete with his nozzles and you are done. Sourcing these parts is expensive via mail.
      I got lucky and found the trigger on the cheap and I ended up sourcing it from 3 vendors over the course of a week for under $70. A Northern Tool Trigger and Pete's kit 35 + 30 comes in at about the same.
      My Ryobi sprayer is 2yrs old and I am on the Ryobi battery platform, upgrading the wand made sense and it will also last forever.
      Now if starting from scratch I would just buy a sprayer from Pete with his set up. This saves a lot of time and headache.
      Happy spraying!

    I watched UA-cam reviews on this sprayer, both by itself and in comparison to others in generally the same price range and this sprayer came out VERY well if not on top. I bought mine yesterday at HD and have not opened the box just yet. You, like some other reviewers mentioned the awkwardness of screwing the top cover back on. A commenter of 1 reviewer said he had that cover problem also and he sprayed silicone on the tanks threads as well as the covers threads and o-ring and it made the covers placement silky smooth. I will do that when I open my box soon. You try that and see how it works. I too have felt that Ryobi has improved greatly and continues to be building some pretty good equipment .
    Several years ago I was using the same sprayer for both vegetation killer and weed control and liquid fertilizers and was careless in not adequately flushing glycophosphate from the tank and hose and on my next use of it as a weed killer I did some pretty good damage in one area. I beat myself up over that and I now use a VERY clearly marked dedicated sprayer for spraying vegetation killers.Everything gets rinsed after use. Excellent video by the way.

    I would think twice before buying. I purchased 2 of them 2 years ago. The first one ran about two minutes. Ryobi customer service was useless but Home Depot allowed me to return it. The second one worked great for the season but worked about 5 minutes the second season. As a testament to their battery life I sprayed an entire season and only had to charge the battery once. I expected a longer life. Will never buy another Ryobi product.

On off switch and dial is fine although the ‘click’ between off and on is pretty faint. Overall I have used extensively and would recommend, just try to avoid over bending the hose.

    Nice review .. I bought mine almost 2 years ago without a battery & was like 100$ I have a lot of Ryobi tools so I was good on the batteries. I use mine mostly for my apps of Prodamine .. ah yes the cap.. it will eventually break in and get easier. I love mine the only issue is where the left strap joins the tank on the back always rubs my shoulder and literally will rub my skin off... But overall a very solid performer well worth the money. Not having to pump it is easier plus I believe gives you a more even application. Keep up the great videos always enjoy them.

On a single charge the 40v will go a MUCH longer way and the 40v is warrantied for 5 years as opposed to 3 for the 18v. It was a no brainer, I bought the 40v

Even the two amp battery 🔋 is a beast on a home lawn. I have 17,500 and it did not die at all. I also have about 4 more RYOBI 18 volt products. The stores in my area only offer the 18volt as of now also.

    Can I use same sprayer for Roundup/glyphosate that I use for herbicides?

    Bought one today and it was DOA. I didnt even bother to replace it, just returned it. It is overpriced for what it is. cheap plastic parts.

    That sprayer is CRAP! the nozzle will start popping off after about 5 uses and it gets clogged with a speck of dust

      Total lawn I’ll have to disagree with you on that crap part. I’ve literally have been putting tons of stuff in it testing it commercially. I can only say either you’re not cleaning the hose out after each use , leaving left over stuff in tank or you’re adding liquids while grass clippings are in the air or you got a bad unit. Hopefully you follow me on IG to see my up dates 👍🏾
