Wagner Electric Paint Sprater

Would Recommend

Electrical handheld paint sprayer. Super easy to use. Easy to clean. Unlike many sprayers you DO NOT need to dilute your paint. A huge plus when time is of the essence. I would highly recommend this product for any home project.

Good paint sprayer

Would Recommend

Worked well and did not waste paint from excessive over spray. I need to reread the instructions for "easy" cleanup - I think I spent more time than necessary cleaning up after I was done painting. Sprayer did a good job and was easy to control. This is a good value for the price. I only used it once, so I can't speak to its' longevity

Worked once

Would Not Recommend

Worked one time, poorly for stain, ended up doing the job by hand. I thoroughly cleaned the machine and stored it. Tried to use it for a job one month later and it wouldn’t pull stain from the canister.

Spitter not a sprayer

Would Not Recommend

I bought this to paint a gate and it spits not sprays. It looks more like knockdown rather than a smooth spray. Honestly, I think a windex bottle with paint would do a better job. I’m returning this ASAP.

Great product at a great price

Would Recommend

I bought this to repaint the cement molded rocks on my swimming pool. After reading tons of reviews for this and other sprayers, I decided on this one. The function of it was simple as was the cleanup afterwards. It is light even with the canister full of paint. The sprayer sprayed evenly and you can control how heavy you want to dispense the product and the direction of the spray if you’re working horizontal or vertical. For small quick jobs this is a very good product to have.

Makes big jobs small

Would Recommend

I was going to paint my garage by hand but decided it was going to take a long time. Bought this sprayer and had the garage done in a little over an hour. Take a while to clean it if you want to do it right but it is a great sprayer.

Easy to use

Would Recommend

The sprayer was very easy to use. No tools required for assembly; nice, even spray pattern. Just be aware, you will use more paint. Painting will be quick and effortless. Easy clean up.

Returning immediately!

Would Not Recommend

I was really excited about this purchase. It looked easy enough for a small indoor project. I prepped my room before using but unfortunately it was not prepped enough. Ceilings and floors needed brown painters paper because the spray went everywhere even though the setting was on “low flow”. I thought it used a lot of paint (1gallon for 2 walls, 11X13 room). The entrances to the room I was painting were taped with plastic but somehow paint dust ended up all over my upstairs living space. Even wi...

With any HVLP sprayer it's most important to work from about 6" away from the project. When spraying from farther away, the flow gets turned up to co...

Great purchase

Would Recommend

First paint/stain sprayer I have owned. Did quite a bit of internet research before I settled on this one. The ability to spray both paint and stain was the deciding factor for me. Plus I didn't need an industrial size sprayer for jobs around the house. Made staining my deck and screened porch quick and easy. It does go through a gallon of stain very fast.
