Boschpaint spray system PFS 5000 E (2x 1000 ml paint tanks, nozzle for wall paint (white)/varnishes (grey)/lacquers (black), paint filter, cleaning brush, in Carton Packaging)

I started of with doubts this would work to spray Granocryl masonry paint, 1st I tried undiluted and it didn't work, I then diluted the paint by 10% after a good stir it sprayed easily, the coverage is excellent and the amount of time it has saved and reduced the hardwork of stipling using a brush makes it a very worthwhile purchase. Yes you have to mask up but I honestly say it has saved hours of hardwork, clean up is easy and I would say Bosch you should have supplied a bottle brush to clean the paint pick up tube, it cleans up so well that it looks like new and is ready for the next time to use. Go and buy it you won't be dissapointed.

I can hold my hand on my heart and state this is without doubt the best sprayer on the market.I've used it to spray furniture as well garden fences and sheds and it's not let me down once.So easy to pour the liquid into the container, start the pump, press the button on the spray gun and away you go. You can also adjust the spray pattern as you go.One gripe is that because it sprays so well it does tend to use the liquid quite quickly. However I appreciate a larger container would add weight and might be difficult to handle.I'm very pleased to say that cleaning after use is dead easy. No fiddly parts to loose or forget where they go. Everything goes back easily and ready to go for the next time.Mine is the corded version but I see they now sell a battery version which must be even easier. 100% recommended.

Its a good gun which saves a lot of time, especially when dealing with oil paint which is a pain to cover up. The only issue is that you cant use paint that's thick because the gun has a problem to spray the paint onto the walls. Otherwise its really good when using it.

Not a huge fan of decorating find it time consuming and having to clean the brushes a real pain, so decided to get a sprayer.There were quite a few to choose from but chose to get the Bosch sprayer. I can honestly say that I am well impressed, there was no need to buy special paint or to thin it down, the assembly of the sprayer is very easy everything is just click and twist. The paint container holds enough paint to cover about 6 metres squared, the time it takes to actually paint is much quicker than using brushes or a roller, also found there was no dripping either. As the paint is being sprayed there is a constant flow of warm air that comes from the end of the gun, this starts off the drying process as well. When you have finished painting cleaning the sprayer is so simple as it's just the gun that needs to be cleaned, pour any remaining paint back into the can, strip down the gun and wash (I used warm water), the gun comes up looking like new. When it was clean I assembled everything back together switched on the sprayer and blew air through the gun to dry it out further. Packing it away was easy as everything just fitted back in box.So overall simple use, fast, easy to clean and pack away, I am so pleased with the sprayer and the actual finish of the paint. At this moment I have found nothing I don't like about the sprayer and would highly recommend this to anyone

Super impressed by this paint sprayer. Bought to tackle our garden wall. We have breeze block wall which has loads of nooks and crannies. The paint sprayer was able to provide excellent coverage in just 1 application.Easy to use out of the box. I was concerned if the paint we used was too thick but handled it well. I used with Sandtex water based masonry paint. The paint sprayer is much better than rollers we used as its economical on paint. Was able to do a whole section and have paint left over where before we'd gone through 1 and a half trays.Instructions are a little hard to read at times just trying to flick back and forth to the diagrams.Afterwards, cleaned thoroughly with warm water and an old cleaning brush (originally used for straws). Would recommend picking up a set of cleaning brushes for it just to keep the nozzles clear of obstruction and ready for next use

Sprays too much paint . Trigger control doesn’t do much difference.. On the lowest setting paint container gets empty in less than a minute.

I am very dissapointed with the product. I bought that because I thought it will save me time, make painting faster and easier. That is not the case at all, I will explain why. Once you have it setup - it is fairly quick (I didn't use protective equipment recomended - gloves, glasses, mask), painting itself is a nightmare - it is blowing hot air from the gun all the time when you don't paint, it is blowing all the protective foil off the walls (you must have it due to overspraying and that takes forever to cover everything). The hoover that you have to carry on yourself is getting very hot and tube is hot as well. Due to hot air paint is drying very quickly at the end of the noozle - causing blocking of paint output - very poor design in this case.Overspray - there is no consistency during painting, gun gets blocked, it stops painting after good shake it will paint again it just doesn't work like it should.Poor quality finish of painting - finish I got was not acceptable at all, despite huge efforts from my end. Overspray is huge I am talking like 50cm, paint is going everywhere It just shouldn't be like that.Despite few available adjustments like airflow controll and amount of paint that didn't help, still poor results.For me it was a complete waste of money and effort, I have to buy normal roller to finish the job now. I wouldn't recomend to my enemy, not to mention a friends. I would be happy to circulate my paint spray system for free so people could try it before making decision of wasting £90.I believed in advertisement and videos - now I know it was a very good marketing trick from Bosch, I believed in the brand but this time Bosch failed me big time.
