Title: Anyone use one of these?
Post by: TLC on April 06, 2010, 11:26:15 pm
Thinking about buying one of these     http://www.williamson-shop.co.uk/wfp-bksc-1-backpack-sprayer-3272-p.asp    and just wondered if anyone rates em or not. would prefer a shurflo but it seems to be hard to get one delivered fairly quick and i rekon it might be hard to get parts etc...

Any suggestions welcomed

IU have a Wcw back pak I can replace any part of this unit, pump etc of the shelf. So I dont see a problem to repair them. The unit is pretty simple.

Just ordered mine, got a spare batt aswell for 19.50 which i thougt was a barg! The guy i spoke to said spares are alot easier to gety hold of than the shurflo and the batt lasts twice as long. also it looks like the flo control is on the front instead of bottom (a design fault in the shurflo in my opinion). the chap also told me that shurflo products aren't a scratch on the standard they used to be as they have moved all their manifacturing down to mexico and cut costs alot. Thought it would be wise to order from a uk-based co incase of probs/ spares etc.
