Pennington® Smart Feed™ Sprayer System



I received the Pennington® Smart Feed™ Sprayer System because I am a BzzAgent and I get to try things out for free as long as I give my honest opinion of how it works.

A few weeks ago after receiving my BzzKit I tried out my cool new sprayer system.  My garden having been through a major flood looks a little rough.  Now that I have time to work on it I weeded it, did some hedging, planted some new plants and wanted to fertilize it properly to give it that extra boost.  My initial experience was not pleasant.  After hooking the sprayer up to my hose I turned the water on and got sprayed with water and possibly fertilizer I'm not sure.  I immediately turned it off thinking I hooked it up wrong but I could see no issues.  I detached it and reattached it hoping that would fix it.  It only made it worse.  When the water got me a second time I screeched because the water was a little chilly.   I decided not to waste the pellets I had in the canister and fertilize the garden anyway.  By the time I was done I looked like I just went swimming and I am not certain how well the fertilizer was dispersed in my garden.

After a few days under direction from BzzAgent I contacted Pennington to tell them about the defective sprayer.   The lady I spoke with was extremely helpful.  She asked numerous questions about what happened.  I relayed my story and she apologized.  I told her I was a BzzAgent and that I was trying to review it but I can't give an accurate review because it didn't work correctly.  She made notes of how the defective one looked and what it did.  She then said she would ship me a new sprayer and more product because it probably didn't disperse correctly.

Flash forward to today.   I was finally able to use my replacement sprayer system.  To my pleasure the new sprayer worked perfectly.  It didn't soak me and it dispersed the product evenly.  I am definitely pleased with the ease of use.  It used minimal water and let me feed my whole front garden in about 10 minutes.  I think now that it was done properly I will see the results I want.
