What Customers Are Saying

The Valspar Reserve Interior Paint & Primer has received mixed reviews. Many customers praised its great coverage, vibrant colors, smooth application, and easy cleanup. However, several reported that the "one coat coverage" claim was inaccurate, and they needed to apply multiple coats, especially over darker colors. Some also noted issues with streaking, sheen, and overall paint quality. While the paint has many positive attributes, customers may need to use more paint than expected to achieve satisfactory results, especially for certain colors or surfaces.

Great Paint but..

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Valspar Reserve interior paint itself is great! We painted over our red kitchen that had been driving us craft since we moved in. Even with the bold red the Reserve only took one coat period, it was amazing and we only needed one can. I felt if we utilized the less expensive cans we would have spent more buying two cans. The only complaint is maybe the paint didn’t mix well because it’s so good and thick or Lowe’s didn’t shake it long enoug...

Not one coat, but four!

Beautiful color (purchased the Berry Brown) but it's absolutely not one coat coverage... It's four! I've done many interior painting projects, personally and professionally, and am surprised at how long painting a single small bedroom has taken with this product. It's certainly pretty, but not what it promised to be. I don't recommend for vibrant color use.

Great Paint

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and I have recently purchased our first home. When selecting our interior colors, we immediately feel in love with the array of colors Valspar has to offer. When it came down to choosing which type of product to use for our walls, we knew Valspar's Reserve was the way to go. The paint quality is just what we needed and it already comes with primer, so it was a plus in our book!

Good coverage, 2 coats

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good overall coverage but requires at least 2 coats. Lighter on darker would need 3 more than likely.

I HATE painting and have painted a bit in many of the places I have lived. I've used all the "best" paints out there. Well, I thought I had, until I used Valspar. This paint is AMAZING! I don't usually review a product, but this one is well well deserved. If I could rate it a 10 star, I would. Coverage, application, drying and end results were so good that it made my job very easy. Thank you for a great product.

Very little coverage

Would Not Recommend

This is supposed to be a one coat paint. Had to use at least 2 coats and in some areas 3. Was painting over a light colored paint that should not have been a problem. Each gallon is supposed to cover 400sq/ft. Had to buy a second gallon for a 144sq/ft room. The second can was 2 shades darker than the first. Total waste of my time and money. Will never buy again.

Would Not Recommend

You might be able to get 400 sq. ft., you might be able to get one coat coverage, but you won't be able to get both at the same time. Guarantee on can says one coat coverage; the can also indicates up to 400 sq.ft. per gallon. That would leave one to believe, in theory, you should be able to paint four 12.5 x 12.5 x 8 foot walls and achieve satisfactory one coat coverage with one can. The net sq. footage of the room I had to paint was less than 270, the walls were already primed, and yet it was...

Terrible Coverage

Would Not Recommend

We recently bought a house and chose Valspar paint throughout. We used "Indigo Streamer" to cover a light yellow room. We're three coats in and can still see through in places. Furthermore, we began seeing horrible roller marks after the second coat that didn't improve with the third. We let the coats dry for a full 24 hours to ensure it wasn't a matter of wet versus dry paint but it didn't help. I have no idea how we're going to fix it.
