Spraying herbicide

I’m a professional gardener. So I purchased one these last year for £86 A year later, for some reason it’s jumped nearly £50’in price. But they’re better quality than the cheap £20-£30 ones I’ve been using over the past years. They only seem to last a year or so before corroding or leaking.? So they’re a good well built quality knapsack. The only problems I had with the last one I bought was that there was a stupid plastic clip that held the piping from the knapsack to the lance. It’s a poor design that caused a small leak. I overcame this by removing it and replacing it with a jubilee clip. Problem Solved for the sake of a few pennies. This one had the same stupid plastic clip that will need to be changed. The only other problem I had with the previous knapsack was the poor design of the clips that held the shoulder straps on at the bottom to the metal stand. They occasionally came off due to the clip design. This new one looks as if it’s even worse. They’ve done away with a locking loop. And replaced it with just a clip that in no way locks on. It just doesn’t feel like it’s meant to be connected to the steel base stand. And that it will be forever falling off. It just feels like they’ve had a good design, messed with it. And actually produced a worse product for and charging us an extra £50 for the hassle. I’ve not used it yet, as it was bought to use selective weedkiller on lawns. But any problems, I’ll update the review
