Very effective weed killer !

I’ve tried many weed killers over the years and this one really is amazing! The pump ‘n go feature makes light work of previously using a trigger spray. After approximately 25 pumps I had minutes of a continuous jet aimed directly at the weed!Within hours I could see the product working and then overnight I just pulled the weeds up.The handle can be locked in place for ease of carrying.
Great Path weed kill and fantastic pack
Reviewed on
This is a really brilliant weed-kill. The pack is absolutely fantastic. It’s easy to use via the spray nozzle and also reusable with refills. After application you can see the weed browning in few hours. It’s a big container and our garden path is big but was still sufficient. Defo must buy for path weed kill.
Does what it says

Easy to use and the instructions are on the container it was within a few hours of putting the product on the weeds. The pump needs to be more powerful when you use it that’s my only critique.

Very easy to use with minimal effort. It covered all our garden and still have some left. What i noticed compared to other versions compared to this is that this one doesn’t turn our payment tiles white. So far no weeds have grown back and I hope it would last into winter. I like that i can just buy the refill and reuse the pump so is less expensive.
Cleared my paths well

Good product. Really easy to use. It does exactly what it said it would. I noticed the weeds starting changing within 30/45 minutes. The only down side to it is that the hose is short so it's a bit of back killer. But good all round and it cleared the paths a treat! Will definitely buy again.

I have attached before and after pictures of two areas where I used this weedkiller. One was a patch of persistent weeds and another was patches of moss growing on artificial grass. The weedkiller was very effective on both killing weeds within a couple of days.

Very effective

This is such an effective weed killer which is very convenient and portable. It requires no batteries or wires so could be used for wider area without worrying about running out of batteries. It sprays evenly and covers a larger area I used it all over my garden and within few days noticed a massive reduction in weeds. It’s very effective and a great addition to my gardening routine the spray bottle can be refilled as required . I will highly recommend and continue using it.

Difficult to use garden weed killer
Reviewed on
This item came well packaged and secured with zip ties to ensure no spills I was hopeful on arrival due to my well overdue garden needing a good layer or weedkiller to clear it all up due to my house being a project the garden was very much full of weeds so this product came as the perfect time! Upon opening I followed the card and easily got the product open and attached the tube the bottle is heavy and the handle is not good at all feels like it’s going to snap at any moment and not comfortable at all to manner around you have to pump the bottle to get spray after following the instructions the product came out as a very wear sorry looking dribble at best the attachment fell off immediately so I can’t comment if it’s able to spray as I was unable to get it back on.After carrying the bottle around the garden I managed to dribble the product on the weeds and left it to bask in the sunshine after a few hours there was no changes as it says there will be on the box after a few days the weeds are still very much there and show no signs of dying off or going brown etc which I was expect if i was going to pull them out by hand which it was I was going to do however they were still very much firmly in the ground. I will try again and update however so far I am disappointed in this product if I can find a way to remove from the container I may have more luck in my own spray bottle however as it stands I don’t think it’s worth the amount of effect to get a slight dribble I don’t think enough product comes out for it to be effective so overall I would not purchase this or expect to make any difference to my weeds - I will update my review on next using the product however the box recommends up to 4 times a year so we will see!

The Roundup Pump 'N Go Weed Killer is a game-changer it’s helped tackle stubborn weeds without the hassle of mixing solutions or dealing with cumbersome spray bottles. It was very easy to set up and the built-in pump system allows for continuous spraying making it effortless to cover a large area without constantly squeezing a trigger. It quickly gets to work the smaller weeds started wilting within hours. It definitely gets the job done with minimal effort and helps keep outdoor spaces looking neat and tidy. I’d 100 percent recommend this pump and go weed killer

Recently used this weed killer in my garden. Honestly it did a great job. Saw results within an hour or so. Very easy and simple to use the product with great results

I love the packaging love how it's a pump and u can control how much you use. Its very easy to put away & store. And it's easy to lock the pump so it can't be used but carried. I wouldn't class it as a safety lock as its really easy to turn. It doesn't have a strong smell and doesn't stain the slabs or paving which I was quite surprised about. Once sprayed I waited afew hours (5) to see if there was any change and there wasn't even though the bottle states you will see results within hours. However the next day when I checked all the weeds I had sprayed had wilted some of them started to scrunch up. So it does work . Overall I would buy as its easy to use and does what it says on the tub
Great

Upon claiming this i was abit skeptical as to how it’d work considering I’d never seen this before however it really did exceed my expectations. The pesticide doesn’t have a nasty unpleasant scent and the pressure head is very easy and efficient to use. It is very easy to turn off and looks very durable.
