Ratings & Reviews for HomeRight 11.25-in x C800952 PaintStick EZ-Twist Paint Roller Applicator

Love This!

I use this all the time and love it. The latest design has a much better assembly for the roller that clips together and cleans much better. Thats the KEY.. keep this clean after you use it and it will last you. I don’t reuse the rollers unless I’m doing the same color and I keep it in a sealed bag. You also have to clean the connection where it connects to the suction port to the paint. This is foam and will harden if not clean and will leak on your next use. These really is great to use....

Awesome!!

So glad i bought! Saved me so much time and mess. You can paint a huge section of wall without having to reload the roller. Eliminates paint falling off loaded roller as it feeds roller from the inside. For $25, would be worth it even if it only worked a few times, but seems solid and will keep working for many more uses. Clean up easy too.

Make Painting Much Faster

I buy one of these sticks every time that I have a big paint job. I buy new often because after a few repeat uses, the paint starts leaking around the roller. I believe the reason is that I don't do a thorough clean up of the roller after use. Nonetheless, I'd rather pay $25 bucks now and then to reduce the painting time and make it a little bit fun.

Time saver

Eliminated the constant need to get up and down, putting paint on the roller. Just fill the tube/handle and paint. Easy process for painting ceilings. Highly recommend this easy to use product.

Awesome if you're OK with throwing it away

Do NOT buy this if you are only using 1 gallon of paint. However, it is incredible for big, 1-color jobs. You will save so much time and leave no mess with this roller. I was instantly in love with it when I started using it. It's easily 2x faster than a traditional roller and it takes less effort. The paint applies smoothly and quickly. No more pushing hard to squeeze a little more paint out if the roller. Just give the handle a tiny little twist every couple of seconds and you don't have to ...

Painted my whole garage in a day

Used this to paint the drywall in my 2 car garage on an incredibly hot day. It worked great & FAST! A little challenging to clean but loved it otherwise. It was nice not to drip all over and have a sore wrist. Nothing broke for me as other reviews have said. Had my son tip the gallon of paint to get it all out.

Not worth the money

I just tried this thing and it was great at first but the inner tube kept jamming. Also very difficult to fill unless you get just the right angle. Needs improvement to be sure. If you get this, I would say you can try it with the way it is intended but after a while you have to use it as a regular roller anyway. Frankly I would just get a regular roller

Not for ceilings unless...

The roller cover is awful. Once washed it had no fluff to it at all. It may be ok for walls but I bought this to do my textured ceilings. Lowes sells pressure roller covers that (Graco I think it was) and that's the way to go. I haven't broken the feeder tube yet, but I can see why they'd break. So yeah, Wagner: make it from metal and add 5 bucks to the prices.

Perfect tool, I paint all my apartment whit cero spill in my carpet , save a lot of time. , Is very good

Works Good

Works very good and is cheap enough to use and throw away. I don’t understand why there are some poor reviews. This is the third one I have had in the past 20 years. If you don’t want to throw away it cleans up easily just follow the instructions and use Vaseline to seal as needed and always replace the roller after each use.

Wagner EZ-twist

First use. After 20 minutes the roller locked up. The seal on the side of the roller was lightly leaking, as the paint dried it caused the roller to lock up. Cleaned the unit up, cleaned the seal, applied vaseline and tried again. Same result. Not recommended.

Less time, less mess.

Bought this for painting the interior of a customers home. Knowing from experience on exterior jobs, bucket dipping always leads to drips, wanted to avoid that inside. Not only that, the time saved by not having to plunge the roller constantly was a plus, maybe 20 seconds to refill the tube every 40 or so sq/feet.

Weak suction

Despite mixed reviews I got it. Read instructions and watched a video repeatedly. Suction depends on two black rings that slide inside a long tube. I believe my item was out of tolerance because it sucked new paint up the tube in the can and about 1/2” into the long supply tube but despite desperately trying with a helper, and pulling the suction handle to its Full extension, it couldn’t suck more paint. The suction tube remained 95% empty. Lowe’s normally doesn’t return used items but I co...

Great until it broke

Brilliant idea with cheap parts. The fill nozzle broke when I tried to fill the tube the third time. Not what I was hoping for when I have a whole house to paint. Until then however, the roller was working great and was on track to save me a lot of time.

GREAT UNTIL PLASTIC PIECE BROKE

GREAT PRODUCT UNTIL THE PLASTIC FEEDER PIECE BROKE OFF AND I WAS UNAWARE. WHEN i WENT TO TWIST THE PAINT TO FEED MORE TO THE ROLLER IT SQUIRTED PAINT EVERY WHERE. I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT I HAD DONE WRONG UNTIL I GAVE UP FOR THE DAY AND DECIDED TO CLEAN UP WHEN I FOUND THE PLASTIC SPOUT HAD BROKEN OFF INTO THE FEEDER. FIRST USE AND BROKEN...POOR DESIGN IN THE PRODUCT.

Do Not Recommend

DO NOT RECOMMEND. Filled reservoir with paint and after dispensing the entire amount held in the reservoir to the roller, I had to use the traditional process of dipping the roller in the paint tray to use the roller.
