Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
The Valspar Reserve paint has received mixed reviews. Many customers praised its excellent coverage, smooth application, and vibrant colors, with some able to achieve full coverage in just one coat. However, a significant number reported the paint did not consistently live up to the "one coat" claim, requiring two or more coats, especially when painting over darker colors. Some also noted the paint had a strong odor and felt rough or uneven on the finished surface. The quality and performance seem to vary, with customers recommending thorough testing before large projects, as the results may depend on factors like the existing wall color and application method.

I really dislike this paint!
Would Not RecommendI usually love Valspar. It has always been my first choice of paint. But this time I hated the color, it took way to many coats to cover, and all around a disappointing experience. As a matter fact I'm going to repaint right away.

Worth the money
Would RecommendThis is an awesome product with excellent coverage, and scuff resistance! The eggshell finish on it is perfect for most of the house, and the full coverage does not change even for dark colors! Way better than Behr paints.

Not good coverage
Would Not RecommendI’m trying to save some money as I’m painting all the rooms in my house. This was recommended by the sales person who compared it to my usual paint, which is from a different company. This paint is so thin it would require two or three coats to cover. I do not recommend.

Lowe’s employee gave me wrong product
Would Not RecommendI showed the employee what I wanted to do— to paint a bookshelf, but I’m not sure it’s the formula/product, or where’s the miscommunication, the paint they gave me is not strong enough for furnitures, especially after I asked them specifically about whether I need a top coat, they said the paint is strong enough. Now I cannot use the bookshelf, even a piece of paper leaves a mark. I have to find a top coat, which I have no idea what works for this paint.
