At a capacity of 20 litres, it would be better to get a backpack and just stick it on a trolley.  The backpacks are decent these days - with a way of controlling the flow.
Alex has come up with some decent innovations over the years but, although I haven't seen one in the plastic, I suspect that this doesn't reach the usual high standards.
I could be wrong of course.  I suppose it could suit someone working from a car who hasn't room for a separate trolley to put it on.

At over 420 inc vat you might as well pay a bit extra and buy say a purefreedom trolley that uses a quality pump, controller & battery that is built to last. Not only that can be used as a van mount as well just by connecting the inlet to a van tank instead of using containers so you have the best of both.

Agree with all the above, a backpack on a trolley £150 and every bit as good as this overpriced rubbish, What was Alex
thinking.

Done the same, there seems to be a right mark up on some of these trolleys.

Problem with the back packs are they have small batteries  and crappy pumps build your own and put a sure flow pump in it those pumps last a lot longer than the back pack pumps

JCS sprayers £69 , 20 litre capacity, 70 psi pump, flow controller, can't go wrong. Had mine over 12 months and never let me down.

We have a few that we use for spraying chemicals, and they fit snugly behind the tank at the bulkhead.
The big design flow of the Gardiner is it is too fat and stubby  :P
