Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the paint's color accuracy, vibrant finish, and smooth application, with most reporting excellent coverage and professional results. The eggshell finish is commended for durability and aesthetic appeal. However, many note that one-coat coverage depends heavily on surface conditions—light or previously painted surfaces achieve it easily, while dark or textured walls typically require two to three coats. Despite this inconsistency with marketing claims, most customers still consider the coverage superior to alternatives and find the paint easy to work with, with minimal splatter and low odor. Overall, reviewers recommend it for quality and finish despite coverage variability.

Colon Match Fail
Would Not RecommendColor match fail. Paint color didn’t match the wall sample we bought in and dried lighter than the actual paint color and we had to repaint the entire freakin house.

Not one coat.
This advertises as one coat, it took three coats. It’s not worth the cost.

Sadly Disappointed
Would Not RecommendFigured I'd splurge on the "good stuff" trusting 1 gal / 1 coat would cost less than 2 gal / 2 coats of the "cheap stuff" (plus save time). Paintable area = 311 sq/ft. Cut it edges and rolled 1 wall at a time wet edge. Eggshell light tan over a slightly darker tan. Hard to achieve coverage, patchy, roller marks galore. The ironic dilemma: It requires another coat. If top coat with the "cheap stuff" i lose the durable "richer finish" i paid extra for. So i have to buy another gallon of prem...

Awful paint--run far far away
Would Not RecommendHaving painted many, many things in my time as a former handyman and all-around DIY-er, I figured I'd try out a new-ish paint to my routine. Worse paint ever. One coat--total lie. Green over a toothpaste teal color took up to three coats in some areas. Smooth finish-absolutely not. Using a clean roller and brush left all sorts of streaks and puckering regardless of pressure. Quick drying-not even close. Some areas dried super quick. Others took far longer and reapplying over a wet edge actually ...
