Ratings & Reviews for Wagner FLEXiO 3000 Electric Handheld HVLP Paint Sprayer (Compatible with Stains)

Dissapointment

I Bought this product to spray finishes on furniture I have been making. Spent several hours of time to try and tune it in and just sprays blotchy . The interchanging heads are a great concept and why I bought it thinkin it would be a breeze to use but not the case. I spent 149.00 for a product that is easy to clean but sprays horrible. If I was able to do over agian Iwould definaltly not waste the money on this purchase as now i am stuck with a tool that does not make painting or spraying fines...

Flexible 3000

Overall the sprayer seems to be very nice. It has taken a little bit to get past the learning curve and how it works. It did well with an extremely thick Sherwin Williams exterior paint. Overall I am happy.

Works well.

I bought this sprayer 4-15-21 to help me finish a kitchen cabinet job. I needed something faster than a brush and mini foam rollers to get to the “light at the end of the tunnel” on this job. I watched reviews on youtube, listened to the pros and cons of a variety of Wagner Sprayers and chose the Flexio 3000 to do the job. Easy to use, but even with thinned primer and paint, clogging of the tip was like trying to correct a typing error using this LOWES review format...a nuisance! But it saved me...

Not worth it. Get what you pay for.

Bought this to paint some trim and wainscoting. After covering about 5 square feet it started gumming up and splattering. Cleaned the nozzle and continued. Same story. After about about 5 more feet it gummed up again even with the paint thinned. I was able to get the majority of my project finished but you can tell the spots where it started to gum up. Then literally on my last pass on the final touch up the locking lugs broke and the nozzle assembly fell off. I guess I’ll be springing for a bet...

Garbage

Wouldn't work out of the box. We read instructions twice. Called tech support. Nothing. We took it back to Lowes 2hrs after we bought it and got a refund. We was unwilling to try another one.

Very heavy when paint added. The detail sprayer works great but the wall is not consistent. Ended up just rolling the whole house.

Wanted to love it

I used this sprayer 4 times, then I had to return it. The first three times it worked fine. It’s easy to take apart and clean. It was pretty heavy when full which made it hard for me to use with one hand. The last time I started to use it, it spewd paint everywhere. My finger was off the triggered and paint continued to pour from the tip. I took it apart and cleaned it twice and retried using it, it continued to pour paint. Not sure what malfunctioned, I was using the same paint i had the previo...

A Great Buy!

No pre-Thinning of paint. It does get a little heavydueto the turbo attachment, but its better than dragging q compressor hose.

Decent so far

I bought two of these paint sprayers. The first one worked for 10 seconds and just stopped. It would make a noise like it wanted to start but it wouldn't. I returned it to Lowes with no issues and the second one has worked so far. I have only used it on one project, but it did make that project go a lot faster. The paint did not run anywhere on my project following their instructions on proper position and pace. The bags that came with the paint sprayer seem to leak, as both bags that I used lef...

heavy

this sprayer works good even with thick latex but is very heavy with a full load of paint , very hard to hold up to paint large areas, I'm not a small man but after 1 hr. shoulders, back and arms very tired. also trigger pull is very long and hard to hold with the weight..

Not a good tool for ceilings in my opinion

Bought the Flexio 3000 to paint popcorn ceilings throughout my entire house. I’m extremely disappointed and frustrated. It works great for about 30 minutes, then all of a sudden it’s spitting paint all over the place. Settings are the same through the whole job, paint has been thinned, sprayer is at no more than a 45 degree angle and 6-8 inches from the ceiling. I’ve got to cover the floors and walls to protect them since the spitting paint happens without warning. I won’t even risk using this o...

great, versatile compact spray gun

Bought this sprayer and love it. Compact, versatile, and easy to use. The spray widths are really precise and doesn't have a lot of overspray. It is a huge timesaver. This is my new bestfriend in the painting world.

Better than I thought

I have been a professional residential/commercial painter as well as DIY hobbies and furniture. I can't believe the Wagner sprayer has advanced over the past 40 years when I first tried one. I painted a 10 x 12 Barn Shed and it took all of 1 1/2 hours. Had I rolled and painted with a brush I think it would have taken me at least 6 hours or more. I haven't tried the detail sprayer, but I am certain I will find a way to use the small sprayer. I did use a brush to do the trim on the shed. Clean ...

great product for a DIY’er!!

Full disclosure: i tead all the reviews online at lowes and anywhere else i could find on sprayers. Its been years since j have used one and remembered them as messy and not a whole lot of help. I picked the middle of the road- not the most expensive not the cheapest either. I read all the instructions prior to using the sprayer. All of them. I looked at videos of others using the sprayer. I highly recommend using the paint liners for the containers because it does help to keep cleanup e...

MUST HAVE!!!

I purchased my Flexio 3000 about a month ago and it has been such a god-send!! Garage painted in literally no time, stained our fence like it was nothing! Now no need to hire someone to paint my house! All around an absolutely amazing product, and super easy to use!

This is a great tool

I used this sprayer to paint my washroom sink countertop before applying Epoxy , it worked flawless and had a wonderful result .

Remarkable paint gun

Got this sprayer to replace one I had loaned out and never got returned. Wagner did not make my old sprayer so I got Flexo 3000. Used it to spray base board and crown molding can not believe how well it sprayed latex paint with out thinner. The easy clean up is quick and all parts come apart with out any tools the easiest spray gun I have ever owned.
