First things first. I’ve never operated a paint sprayer. That being said, its not rocket science but there is definitely a learning curve and a technique to master. We had three darkly painted rooms that needed to be covered and the thought of hand painting 2-3 coats to cover was enough to just say “nope.” Instead we read the reviews and settled on this sprayer. It wasn’t the cheapest nor the most expensive but it got decent reviews. Out of the box it was super easy to assemble. The most onerous part was timing the paint thickness before spraying. But once we found the right consistency, it was smooth sailing. First time out of the box, we encountered overspray- easy enough to fix. Within a short amount of time we adjusted the nozzle and didn’t have too much trouble with overspray again. When we encountered it, we just dealt with it by brushing the overspray, letting it dry and moved along with another coat. That inelegant technique didn’t seem to impact the final finish. The unit was sturdy and powerful enough for our needs, and it was not cumbersome at all with the attached compressor and hose. The idea of a cordless was tantalizing, but waiting to recharge a unit wasn’t. So, get the compressor model. Hose was long enough to work a 10x12 room without too much jockeying. Cleanup is a chore, but we drew a hot soapy sink, let the parts soak a bit and then took it bit by bit. Easy to disassemble and easy to reassemble. Machine comes with everything you need to clean out spray holes, etc. We used latex which was less involved as far as cleanup. The results are awesome, dark paint covered in one good spray and a second targeted spray; and it saved us hundreds of dollars in hiring someone to do the same thing. Plus, before the product even shipped their customer service reached out with a direct contact for us to use were we to run into an issue. All in all, I recommend the product even for a total rookie. Just take your time and roll with the punches. Totally worth it.

I had to fight over whether to leave 4 stars or 5. I went with 5 because really, my complaint isn't huge.This is my first time owning one of these sprayers with its own little built in air producer. Been using various airbrushes for years, but I genuinely hate moving my tools from place to place and my air compressor is in a different place and used for pressure casting as well as for general, smaller airbrushing. I didn't want to move it around all the time, so I bought these.These little buggers really lay down some paint. My first time trying I was concerned my primer was on the thick side so I used the second largest nozzle and that was a MISTAKE. I downgraded to the smallest nozzle and things are better now. So far I have only run primer through it, but I will be testing out polycrylic sealer and enamel cabinet paint soon. At some point I also want to try it with woodworking stains and such. Will do my best to update.As for the primer, I have to thin it a tiiiiny bit. 1oz water to 20oz and I could probably go less water tbh, to get it through the runout cup fast enough. I don't want to risk it, but I almost feel like this could still push the primer fine if I didn't thin it at all. With the thinned primer, I am getting a slightly rippled texture, and I am not sure if its due to the amount of air this thing is pushing.The con I have for this unit is the air it produces is insane. And it carries paint WAY further than I want it to. I have decorated things over 10 feet away with little bits of paint that I did not want to decorate. Oh well. The primary way you control the amount of paint is through the nozzle size. That's mostly fine for preventing drips and runs. Its not amazing for reducing paint moving from air pressure or accidentally over-spraying.After the first cleaning I had thought the unit had stopped working or I had failed to clean it properly, but I disassembled and reassembled and it was working fine again. I don't know what I did, but it was apparently an easy fix.

This works really well, it’s very quick. I just don’t like how small the paint container is. Having to pour more paint every few minutes is what takes the longest.Mine actually came defective and I reached out to the owners and they completely ignored my “cry for help” I have to take the container to the handle (and untape it every few minutes to repour paint) because it didn’t fit correctly , however when I reached out and explained everything that basically said “We’re so glad you found a way to fix the item” so that was annoying. Besides that. I definitely enjoy the sprayer.

This is first paint sprayer i ever bought. It works great so far. I cant believe how much value you get out of this small inexpensive machine. It saved me so much time in painting my basement ceiling and walls. This is the best amazon purchase i have ever made!

I've owned several of them and have also used a number of normal compressor-fed spray guns.This thing is great. Far easier to use than any airless sprayer I've ever used before. Much lighter and easier to hold up for long spray jobs, the pattern is perfect, and since it all comes apart and is plastic it can be soaked and cleaned easily.Love the 10' hose also, I can put the air unit in the middle of a normal bedroom and not have to move it to spray the entire room!
