A trigger sprayer assembly for dispensing liquid from a container includes a pump element secured to a housing (480) of the assembly. The housing (480) has a portion defining a cylindrical pump chamber (512), and the pump element further comprises a piston (510) reciprocable within the cylindrical pump chamber (512) in response to actuation of a trigger (14). A spring element (514) has a base portion (516) secured to the housing (480), and a resilient arm portion (526) that extends forwardly therefrom and engages the piston (510) so as to bias the piston (510) to an extended position.
