Forte OP-5

Cheap doesn't mean bad

Forte OP-5 is one of the cheapest garden sprayers available on our market. It can be called "low-cost" because even some manual sprayers are more expensive. But, despite such a low price, its characteristics are quite up to par. The sprayer has a tank of 5 liters and a pump for pumping. It is lightweight (only 1.5 kg in a "dry" state), and for carrying the device on the shoulder, a durable nylon strap is provided, which is attached to the tank with metal rings.

Nothing extra

The sprayer has a telescopic “rod”. In the maximum extended state, the length of the rod is 110 cm (when folded — 65 cm). The spray range of the jet with a "long-range" nozzle reaches 2 metres. But there are also replacement nozzles in the kit. By installing them, you can spray fertilizers or chemicals not with a strong jet, but in the form of a light mist.

The disadvantage of this device is its pump. It is completely plastic and is not particularly reliable. In addition, it cannot be disassembled for repair. Spare pumps are rare. But you can close your eyes to this drawback, because Forte OP-5 costs around $ 10 — three to four times less than other garden sprayers of the same type and volume. If the pump breaks, it's easier to buy a new atomizer than to mess around with repairs.

Sprayers for thrifty people

There are other inexpensive devices in the Forte line of garden sprayers. Thrifty summer residents and gardeners may be interested in pump devices for 8 and 10 liters, similar in design to the model in question, as well as an 8-liter sprayer with a pressure gauge.
