I've been reading some threads on which back sprayer to get and it seems to be every body has a different opinion. I'm thinking of the solo 425L from lowes, any comments? I'm looking to use it for spraying drive 75. If I want to spray something else in the future (e.g. iron), should I use another sprayer?

Which would be better between the Solo line and the Echo line. I see HD sells the Echo line and the RL line but not Solo line. And would a diaphragm or piston be better. If I'm right the difference is Diaphragm is less PSI but can spray powered formulations and liquids and a Piston only does liquids?

I went with a diaphragm pump because it was advertised as being to handle wettable powders. I thought it would be able to stand up to the stuff I put thru it on the lawn, like iron and the bestlawn brews. One and a half seasons so far and no problems.
