Would RecommendEase of use. Very easy to load. VERY HARD TO C L E A N ! Recommend that before the first time you use this unit. Disassemble all of the parts exposed to paint and coat with patrolum jelly . Don't be afraid to over do it. It will help with clean up. Other than that this is a great tool to prime wood with.

Good product
I bought this hand sprayer for small projects and works amazing, not disappointed at all for the price. So far I have used for painting a storage cabinet and dinning chairs, and a dresser save me a bunch of time. I would not recommend for big projects as it only holds so much paint.

Practice first before using on the job at hand.
Would RecommendIt sprays everywhere but does a excellent job of covering all.

That's sage advice. Thanks. Overspray does get easier to control each time you use it.

absolutely HORRID!
Would Not RecommendThe worst sprayer i have ever used! Clogs up and needs a FULL tear down and clean for EVERY refill. I bought it for a small deck (2gallons of stain) and used it on a 70° day with a light breeze and the nozzle was clogging up before the fill cup was empty. The nozzle was almost completely clogged by the time you refilled the cup so it had to be torn completely apart and cleaned for EVERY FILL UP. A 1 hour job took me 5 hours. Recall this thing!
We're sorry to hear about the issues. Give us a call with information about the stain and how it was prepared for application so we can help get ...

Very Good Sprayer
Would RecommendUsed it for the first time today. Instructions were easy to undestand. Only complaint is that the motor heated up bot not to the extent to cause to either malfuction or shutdown. Easy to disassmble for cleaning. Appears to be good for home projects
Thank you.

Not working after 1 use
Would Not RecommendI bought this sprayer to paint a large shed. I had problems from the beginning. I had to stop every few minutes to clean it because it would stop spraying. Took me 4 hours to paint 2 walls. Then came back the next day to try to finish painting and the sprayer would not even turn on. I tried to troubleshoot using Wagner’s YouTube videos and still would not work. I would not recommend this sprayer at all.

IT DIED
Sprayer worked well once I got use to it. Then after about 30 to 40 feet of fence it died. No power. Just quit. It goes back tomorrow. Hope I can get a replacement. Got only about half the fence stained.

Garbage
Would Not RecommendBuy this and you'll constantly be troubleshooting, figuring out why it won't spray, etc. It's terribly unreliable, and the paint capacity is TINY.
We're sorry to hear about the trouble. We have technical support at 1-800-328-8251 to help you through these issues quickly.

Thanks for the review.


Perfect Little Painter
Would RecommendEasy to use. Doesn’t use a lot of paint but goes on quickly and evenly. There is some overspray so everything has to be covered or you’ll spend a lot of time cleaning up. It’s also very easy to clean.
Thank you for the review.
