Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
The product has a mixed performance. It can help reduce painting time, especially for ceilings and high areas, by allowing users to load paint in the handle and minimize the need for refilling a tray. However, many users reported significant issues, such as leakage, making a mess, and wasting paint. The cleaning process is also described as difficult and time-consuming. While some found it easy to use and a "game changer," others felt it was a waste of money and did not save time compared to a regular paint roller and tray.

Not Good
Would Not RecommendUnsure what I might have been doing wrong, but this was not easy to use. I felt like I would have had to suck up the entire gallon of paint to get anything to come out of the roller. When paint finally did come from the roller, it was minimal and provided awful coverage. Stick with your regular roller.

Use Once
Would RecommendLove these. Need to use them correctly though. My advice is use them only once, get separate ones for each color, wrap the entire end really well with plastic including the intake between each coat. I have used them a couple days in a row doing that. This product save me hours and hours and hours.

massive waist
Would Not RecommendAwesome concept horrible cheap design. Definitely not ment for large projects as it is made of cheap plastic that falls apart. Requires a ton of paint just to get started and the roller head pops off enough time to make you go mad. Turns out the roller cap was broken. Huge mess and a waist of paint.

People still use trays?!?!
Would RecommendMy wife traded out her Wagner pump system for this and hasn’t looked back. Have probably exceeded 10k sqft of painting multiple homes without any of the quality issues reported in other reviews. Saves time and most importantly DRIPS. I do wish Wagner offered a siphon for 5 gal buckets, and yes, corners require other tools. But for the efficiency of getting paint on big surfaces, I really cannot believe people still use trays.

Cheaply made and inefficient
Would Not RecommendThe tube was not creating a proper seal when sucking up the paint/stain. It was very messy to use and was not efficient at all. Using this actually created more work for me than just buying a normal roller attached to a pole.

Good coverage unable to get into tight spaces
Would RecommendPaint goes on well, unable to get into edges of siding so you have to also hand paint. Tried both naps of roller. But good purchase.

Only lasted one paint job
Would Not RecommendI bought this hoping it would speed up the painting job I had. It did, but it didn't last. The plastic piece that holds the roller to the piantstick broke. At first I thought the notch just came out of the hole but looking at it closer, it actually split towards the bottom. I had only used it for the first coat in one room. Now when I pull the trigger for the paint to pushed to the roller, the trigger is not working all the time (like it's weakened). Loading the paint into the reservoir is ...

This thing is trash. It's miserable to clean when you switch paint or colors, it's uncomfortable to hold onto and paint with. But worst of all the SECOND you apply any force or torque to the roller, it pops off and you will never be able to get it to stay back on. If you have textured walls expect this thing to last about one wall before it completely falls apart. Do not buy this, take your $40 and buy two days worth of Taco Bell instead.
