Customer Reviews for RYOBI ONE+ 18V Cordless Battery 1 Gal. Chemical Sprayer (Tool Only)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently purchased the ONE+ 18V Cordless Battery 1 Gal. Chemical Sprayer (Tool Only) and I'm incredibly impressed. It's exceeded my expectations in every way. The cordless design is incredibly convenient, and the sprayer's power and precision are top-notch. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient way to apply chemicals.

This review is based on two things, the battery and Ryobi service. This is advertised that it comes with a 2amp battery. It's printed on the box as well as Home Depot's website. It does not come with a 2amp, it has a 1.5amp battery. When I registered it with Ryobi, their description is a 1.3amp. So Im not sure what's going on here. I tried to chat with Ryobi. Their chat is limited and would not accept my question. I called Ryobi, was on hold for an hour and gave up.

The box shows two amp lithium battery and charger. A 1.5 amp battery and charger come with this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This really saves the pumping and pumping and pumping

Unfortunately there are few alternatives to this sort of sprayer, and I have used the one gallon and two gallon sprayers for years. They work well enough, and a small battery can spray for several hours. BUT! The 'housing deck' (Housing Deck Assembly 311821001), easily breaks from either snapping one the motor to the tank, or by using the shoulder strap, This wouldn't be a problem, except Ryobi has stopped making these. So a $50 to $100 piece of equipment must be tossed for lack of a $5 part,

It is a very poor investment this is my second purchased and it dont make the next summer weak sprayer leaks reason I bought a second one is because I already had the battery.

Worked fine. The trigger handle broke and I can’t seem to find a replacement. There should be a replacement. I shouldn’t have to buy another sprayer for this problem.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was tired of fighting with pump sprayers so I bought this Ryobi electric sprayer kit with battery and charger on Memorial Day. The unit is pretty easy to fill and has its own measuring cup built in for measuring up to four ounces of chemical. The unit has an on/off button near the handle which operates the pump and only requires a squeeze on the trigger once the pump is running. I did notice that pressure will build up in the pump if you are not squeezing the trigger, so I would suggest you turn the unit off if you are not spraying. Don't just sit it down and let it run, building up pressure. It is pretty quiet and very light weight, especially with the smaller sized One+ battery that comes with it. Seems to be a well-made working sprayer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This small sprayer works great for applying vinegar solution to the mold growth on the underside of my deck. It's compact, has adjustable spray, long enough hose to reach out and up and is easy to refill. The battery just goes and goes. There is no possible way I could do this with my old hand pump sprayer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a month ago and I love it , I use it to spray pesticides weed control it makes it so easy better than pumping every few feet definitely worth it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sprayer works flawlessly. Good battery life and is easy to assemble, fill and use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works good for the price, unfortunately one small bad choice in the design material keeps causing failure after some use with certain chemicals and acidic fluids (i.e. vinegar) . The small piece of rubber is not chemical resistant it's within the pump assembly acting as two valves swells to the point it prevents fluid from pumping out. It's a simple 15 min fix to open it up and trim the rubber a bit and it works fine till it swells up again. I eventually just replaced it with one I printed up with what should be a more chemically resistant material TPE 83A. I uploaded to thingaverse incase anybody is in need.

This is the second sprayer I’ve purchased and just like the first one the clips that hold the sprayer onto the reservoir broke. The plastic clip which is part of the sprayer get brittle and break when you’re attaching the reservoir to the sprayer. Having it happen the first time I was Uber careful not to put too much tension on the plastic clips but to no avail. Great concept, cheaply built.

If you transition from a hand pump sprayer to this sprayer, you will probably be delighted at first. If you are handy with tools and don't mind replacing parts periodically, you may be happy longer than I was. After 2 seasons of use at my single family residence... after cleaning the unit thoroughly after each use... after storing in a dry shed during the off season... you can see in the photo the condition of the pump mechanism in my sprayer. Very corroded and no longer working.

I purchased 4 of these 2 for home and 2 for my beach house. All 4 broke within a year in varying ways. Two of them had the pump stop working, the other 2 are useless because the plastic "ears" that hold the clips broke off and they leak. I had to put bungy cords around one of them as you can see in the picture. I am extremely disappointed with these pieces of junk and a wasted $424.00.

I have used it once, and put it in my outdoor shed shelf for one year. It won't turn on again. It turns out the switch and the motor are all rusted and broken. I guess it won't be worth it to get it repaired.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Did NOT work out of the box. Had a small problem where air was in the line and the instructions did NOT show how to clear it. Otherwise, they would have gotten 5 stars.

Just bought this last summer and found a hole in the metal sprayer piece after one use. I was spraying and my leg was drenched from the spray coming from the middle of the “arm”. Taped it up with duct tape but most of the pressure. Because of this issue, I will be purchasing another brand for next season.

First one leaked badly, easy return to HD. Second one worked OK for one season, although pressure was minimal. Stored empty in a dry shop when I tried to use it the second year it would not spray. Removed the bottom plate to find the motor housing was evidently not water tight and moisture and spray residue had entered and rusted the motor. Poor design. I have a about three dozen Ryobi 18v tools which I really like. This one was a big disappointment.

This product has a major design flaw on the tank that holds the liquid. There are plastic tabs on the tank where the metal latch connects the top part of the sprayer to the tank. All of the stress from the weight of the tank and the force applied when latching and unlatching the tank is on these plastic tabs. The plastic is about 1-2mm thick and has no reinforcement. Obviously, this is where the the failure is going to occur. This is a poorly designed product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I filled the container up with wet it and forget it and used it for spraying my roof to get rid of the moss and algae. It's not a pressure washer, so it's not a powerful spray. The spray is comparable to a hand sprayer and saves having to pump it up. Finished with the roof spraying, I climbed down the ladder and set the sprayer on the ground. If I were to stop here, I would give it a 5. The problem: When cleaning up, I went to pick up the sprayer, and the tank fell off. I then notice that the cap was broken into a number of pieces, and one of the plastic clips on the motor part of the sprayer that holds it to the tank broke. It was hot that day, and the sprayer was in the sun. So I think what happened is that the air in the tank expanded, broke the lid, and shattered the cap. They are made of hard plastic, not rubbery plastic. Again, it was hot but certainly not as hot as if I had set it down on the roof or asphalt driveway. I would think there should be a relief valve built into the tank to limit the pressure and release any excess amount of pressure that could build up due to the air in the tank expanding. I could get a new cap and bungee cord the tank to the motor part, but I think I will return it to Home Depot. If I do get another one, I will be sure to unscrew the top to release the pressure before setting it down, and when I store it, I will be sure to leave the cap loose.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a couple of weeks ago and have used it twice. When I went to put 2 litres of liquid in it, I noticed that the scale on the container does not read correctly. If you put in 1 liter, it shows 0.8 on the scale. Two litres of fluid is shown as 1.8 on the scale. Three litres of fluid comes to around 2.7, and 4 litres is just over the 3.5 mark.

The pressure is fine for my gardening needs. If you are looking for something with continuous max pressure this is not the tool. You will need to press the trigger for about 10 seconds and then wait 1-2 seconds and press the trigger again. But is you are using if as a sprayer with a diffused/misting spray, this works great. I use it to mist my mulch with Vinegar to kill random grasses and raise the acidity level to kill mushrooms and other fungus.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used it to spray a sealant over my pavers, but beware do not let it sit without using all of the sealant. You will have to clean it out if you let sealant sit. So be sure to use it all at once.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sprayer worked beatifully. I used it to apply weed killer before we planted the garden. Love the metal sprayer wand. I used a black marker to highlight the level indicators on the bottle.

We bought one but it lasted one summer. Bought another. Same thing lasted about a year. From the internet, it looks like the pump as gone. We have cleaned all tubes and they are clear. Battery charged.For the cost of these things would not recommend them.

The clip that secured the tank broke after a few times. It’s always clogged when we need it to work. Horrible design and not enough power to be worth owning it. With the side clip broken it is now unusable.

I can’t possible recommend this product. Second time using it, almost a full gallon of weed killer in the tank, and the plastic brackets that hold the tank to the body snapped off and the tank fell to the ground. Lucky nothing from the tank (which is poisonous) shot out on me. Oh, and I have a gallon of weed killer I dont know what to do with. This thing is dangerous depending on what you have in the tank. I generally like Ryobi’s more innovative products but this one is a failure. Will be returning.

I read many great reviews on this product. These individuals were either paid to do so or have never used a good electric sprayer. This product has absalutely no power whatsoever.
