Lidl pressure spray question

colinS

Today I am returning to Lidl the pressure spray I bought yesterday, it cost £8.99p. The reason I am returning it is because after reading the instruction booklet, I see it cannot be used to spray week killer. In fact, even though it's advertised as "versatile", it can only be used to spray water or ph neutral cleaners, according to the manufacturers. Can anyone tell me why this is? It looks like many other such 5Lt manual pressure sprayers that are advertised for spraying weeds.

I use the Aldi one and its fine used it for four years and still works I only use it for weedkiller (rosate36). I also have a spear and Jackson one which has let me down in 18 months of having it and only use it for spraying water fine mist and a combined food/pest killer.

Probably some EU law just to cover themselves!!
