When used as intended, per the instructions, this is an excellent organic herbicide.It does an effective job killing the weeds and grass that were sprayed, with noticeable results in a few hours.I use this to kill a variety of weeds around our yard perimeter as well as near our 42 wine grapevines (i.e. not a large vineyard with acreage). Also, to control the stubborn bermuda grass when it starts growing outside our lawn. The key, however, is to spray before that weeds or grass grow really large or out of control. Otherwise, subsequent follow-up sprays will probably be required in short order.Some things to note:1. This is not a "year long" weed killer or preventer. It's not labeled as such. Ortho does make a year round herbicide...but that version does NOT use the same active ingredient Ammonium Nonanoate and is therefore not labeled as "organic" or for use around vegetable gardens.2. This is a "nonselective, broad-spectrum, contact†herbicide. Meaning, it can kill plants you might not otherwise want killed, if sprayed with too much wind, overspray, etc.3. While labeled "ground clear," it will clear (kill) the visible vegetation, but not any seeds in the ground because this herbicide "only affects the plant tissue with which it comes in contact" and "has no soil activity."According to another herbicide maker - "Ammonium nonanoate is a multi-purpose herbicide that’s been used to suppress weeds, underbrush and mosses since it was approved for use in 2006. It’s a naturally-occurring fatty acid found in a variety of plants and animals. It’s referred to as a soap-salt, as certain fatty acids are also used to make household soap."I will continue to use Ortho GroundClear Weed & Grass Killer Ready-to-Use and would recommend to other's as well.

Ortho GroundClear Weed and Grass Killer with Comfort Wand works amazingly well! It easily eliminates dandelions, chickweed, and other stubborn weeds. The Comfort Wand makes application simple and precise, reducing strain while providing effective results. Saves me money having to use big company's for yard work.

This stuff does the job, but not as well as some other brands. I had previously been using roundup, and that worked a little better than this one. This one requires that you spray for a good 3-4 seconds for it to be effective. Roundup on the other hand, was just 1-2 seconds. Not a massive difference, but definitely less effective in my experience.Aside from the comparison, I do like that this container can just be sprayed with a button automatically. What I don't like is that the knob to stop the liquid from spraying out just doesn't work. This wouldn't be a big deal, but the wand (sprayer) does leak when not in the upright position. I'm knocking a star off for this, simply because I believe this could be a safety concern for people with pets if the container is left inside.With all of the above said, I still believe this is a great buy. It works and is large enough to last months. Might not be as good as some other brands, but does the job and is fairly cheap.

Sprayed and before the day was out I saw the weeds dying, after a couple more sprays it was done. Worked fast and great. Loved it.

It is such a hassle to return anything anymore, or I would have. This nozzle never worked. There was a hard plastic-like substance that looked like it dripped from a glue gun all over the handle part and in the spray holes of the nozzle. I had to put the contents into a hand pump one to use it, which was the reason I got this darn thing in the first place. It comes with batteries and is supposed to automatically spray when it works correctly. The contents work on the weeds. Woo fn hoo

Works as well as the new weaker mixture can. Kills in hours but weeds return after ever good rain. The EPA might be happy but weak. Still the best you can buy. Worth using. Easy spray battery powered handle is nice. No mixing makes easy use also. Highly recommend product.

Not bad, but it does seem like they water it down quite a bit for the money you spend. It takes about three days to kill everything so its effectiveness could be better and stronger for the money that you pay for this stuff. The smell is not too powerful good quality on the sprayer itself the bottle that it comes in and the sprayer everything is good quality there and works great. I just think they water the spray down too much to make the strength of the product effectiveness weaker than it should be it does work, but it will take a good heavy coating of spray, which I have a very large driveway so I'm not sure it's a good investment for me all in all. It's probably cheaper for me to have someone come in and spray for the size of my driveway so I can recommend this but just beware it could be better, but it could also be worse . So I have a few of these bottles that are empty now, but the sprayer still work so I decided to go to Home Depot or Lowe's whichever area I happen to be in and get the concentrated version and mix it up and put it in these bottles then I have one for the back of my property and I have one for the front That works great. Hope this helps.

There is nothing about this product that lived up to its description, a complete waste of money as far as I am concern.
