RL Flo-Master Chameleon Hose End Sprayer for use with Fertilizers, Weed Killers, Fungicides and Insect Killers, 32 ounce Refillable Bottle Included

Love this. Very user friendly. Just attach to hose, put concentrate in bottle, close and turn on water.

Cost effective yet well built. Does exactly what it should without leaking. The trigger is very comfortable and easy to use. It comes with a quick connect which works fine, but for me, the hose end plastic connector didn't work well with my other brass fittings. YMMV

I use this product daily for many purposes. The easy fill/refill, settings, and quick connect are wonderful. The trigger will stick if you pull too hard. It is easy to flick forward to re-engage the trigger to deal with the issue (not great, but it works). I would pay 4 times more for the same product with upgraded hardware. Maybe offer a premium version in the future?

Works as advertised. Unlike some others' experiences, mine didn't leak at all -- at least not on the first use. UPDATE: After using this for the first time (except for an initial test with plain water, after which I wrote my original comments, above), I have to reduce my rating from very good to OK. Why? Well, the worst problems seem to stem from the quick release when using the sprayer the conventional way (with the provided container). If you hold the unit too far back, you risk having the quick disconnect release the sprayer, which then falls to the ground. In my case when that happened, it hit dirt, and so the connector and o-ring seal were a mess. I cleaned it, but evidently not enough, because after that happened the level of concentrate in the container didn't seem to go down. Also, I had to force the quick disconnect together because the hose was still under pressure. After a while I increased the spray rate from 1-1/2 teaspoons (the recommended amount) to 4 teaspoons, just to see if any concentrate was coming out, and the level inside the container still didn't go down! I concluded at that point that I'd been spraying plain water instead of the product that I was trying to spread around the yard. What was the problem? Well, I found out that in order to get a decent seal with the quick disconnect, the water pressure in the hose has to be zero. Otherwise, it appears that the seal is imperfect and air gets sucked through the quick disconnect, preventing concentrate from being drawn up into the sprayer head. When I removed the quick disconnect that way (releasing the pressure in the hose), I also cleaned the connecting parts very thoroughly. Then I re-attached the hose, and turned the water back on at the hose bib. Now the level of concentrate seemed to go down inside the container as I sprayed. Even though I was very careful, the quick disconnect came apart a second time. This time it didn't fall in dirt, thankfully, but I did have to de-pressurize the hose to re-attach it and get a good seal. And then turn the pressure back on. Then the concentrate level went down again. But I had to re-do an entire part of my yard that had been sprayed with plain water before I figured the quick disconnect out. One good thing about the quick disconnect is that it allows the unit to swivel and be vertical even if the hose wants to twist a different direction. That's a plus. But you really have to remember to hold the unit very close to the handle in order to try to prevent the disconnect from releasing. The other thing that bothers me a little is that I'm not sure if this sprayer is measuring the amount of concentrate per gallon properly. With my old-fashioned Ortho sprayer, I used to go though about twice as much concentrate to cover my yard. Maybe it's just that the sprayer puts out less volume, but I can't tell. I do like that it sprays with large droplets, which are far less likely to blow in the wind (and into my face) like the old Ortho did, so that's a plus. Anyway, three stars, not four. UPDATE added August 20: No, not three stars, just one. Today was the second time I used this sprayer. It was leaking profusely at the connection to the sprayer. I thought maybe it needed a new rubber washer. (They don't use a rubber washer, it turns out.) So I tried to unscrew the connection to the sprayer. It just turned, and wouldn't unscrew! To get it off, I had to pry with a screwdriver (not recommended because I managed to stab myself in the process). Then I tried to screw it back on, and that wouldn't work because I'd damaged the threads getting it off. Into the trash it went, and I used my old Ortho Dial-a-Spray hose-end sprayer instead, which still works fine. (The spring on the trigger is gone, but that's ok, I just move it back into the off position manually.) I wish Ortho still sold those, rather than the bulky "ergonomic" version they offer now. So my suggestion now is: DON'T BUY THIS CHEAP PIECE OF JUNK. You'll waste your money, your time, and patience.

Hard stuff to figure out should be provided. Leaks from attached hose only. Haven't bought any sprayer attachment yet that doesn't do that. It is perfect. I used a thick liquid organic fertilizer 4oz. Filled container w/water. Think it was still too thick, wasn't emptying like 1st time w/1 oz. Of organic liquid fertilizer. Next week I'll try 3 oz. 1st time I tried w/1 oz. Fertilizer alone. Didn't even thin out. That's why I filled it w/water.

The unit comes loose from the quick connect sometimes. My biggest complaint with it is it works ok up to the 5 1/2oz setting on the dial. At 6 and 8oz it no longer draws up the contents of the reservoir. I put some dye in it so I could test it and sure enough, it will not draw up at those settings.

Purchase some weed killer concentrate from Amazon made by ortho. Better than this and attached it to my garden hose. I also have quick connect settings on my garden hose and this came with one so that was a bonus. Made it easy to connect and disconnect this from my garden hose. poured the concentrate in the container close it up tight and sprayed it on the yard. This saves money and beats paying extra for a single-use garden hose sprayer. I tried reusing one but they don't make the caps reusable on purpose.

This thing works great. I got it because the last hose siphoning chemical sprayer was junk. I love how a bottle of chemicals can screw on where the included container is. It has a dial you can use to regulate the amount of chemicals siphoned from the attached container per gallon of water. No leaks and easy to use. I like the quick connect system, you can turn your hose on and hook it up before and not spill any water. I attached a gallon jug to this thing and was expecting it to be too much for it to handle, but to my surprise it was fine! After spraying my yard it was empty.

Doet wat het doen moet prima

Works Well, nice product, hard to work out metric dosages. used the calculator and it seemed off. figured it out eventually

Der Flomaster hat ein sehr gutes Preis- Leistungsverhältnis, er funktioniert auch sehr gut.

This sprayer works excellent for applying liquid fert! Would buy again!

I found this worked really well and the price was really good. I used this for feeding my lawn with fertiliser and went through quite a lot of working out dosing rates and trial runs to get the dosing rate right. This isn't the fault of the sprayer, it works as it should. My fertiliser was a powder which needed to be dissolved in water, I needed to work out how much I needed in each bowl full. Then you need to work out what rate the sprayer discharges it, this is done with a large easy to read dial. Then you need to work out how many square metres you need to have covered by the time the bowl is empty. I used plain water in the bowl to "calibrate" my spraying speed so I could get a feel for how many square metres my spraying style covered and then adjusted accordingly. It doesn't matter what sort of hose end sprayer you get, you'll need to do this. This sprayer works fine, recommended.
