Forte OG-12

The manufacturer of tools and equipment Forte has long pleased consumers with cheap and functional equipment for the garden. A prime example is the lightweight, comfortable OG-12 sprayer, priced at just $11.

Design for comfort

The spray tank is made of impact-resistant plastic, has a flat rectangular shape and fabric straps, so it fits perfectly behind the back, like a school bag. The bottom of the case has two legs so that the unit can be placed on the ground. The belts look flimsy, but the weight of the device is 2.3 kg plus 12 liters of working fluid. When not in use, the telescopic spray wand can be folded in half and secured to the side of the tank for easier transport.

A mesh is inserted into the wide neck of the tank, which filters the solution from debris. The mesh sits tightly, you do not need to hold it, which is a plus when pouring liquid.

Pumped up and poured

On the right side of the tank is a lever for pumping the solution. A one-time effort is enough for up to one — one and a half minutes of continuous watering.

The sprayer tube is made of stainless steel, although it is thin, it is strong and will not bend from accidental contact. The tube length of 1.1 m, together with a pressure range of up to 2 m, is enough to process a large area without trampling it. With 3 interchangeable nozzles, you can change the spray pattern from jet to mist.

In general, Forte OG-12 is a convenient, performant model for very limited money, which will suit all summer residents and owners of small estates. Who will not have enough tank volume, can take a closer look at the more capacious Forte OG-16 model.
