What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise the paint samples for accurate color representation, excellent coverage, and practical size. Most note colors match advertised shades perfectly and help avoid costly mistakes by revealing true undertones in home lighting. Many report one coat delivers full opacity with smooth application. Reviewers celebrate the compact size as ideal for testing in multiple lighting conditions without waste, calling samples an affordable, essential tool for confident color decisions. A few report occasional inconsistencies like streaky application or unmixed paint, and some find pricing steep, but these concerns are vastly outweighed by positive feedback.

Superb paint department!

Would Recommend

The employee at the paint counter was so helpful. He helped me pick out a few different shades of colors that I wanted to try out and he also let me know that I can bring in my own samples to have the computer match the paint. This is helping us complete our new house projects with much more ease than we thought!

Bad color

Adhesion, drying is very bad. Applied to wood, it was sticky even after 2-3 days and started came out as a strip even with minor scratch.

Good average paint for most people

Would Recommend

I have purchased at least 8 of these, probably more and love them. Its a generous amount of paint to test the wall or use on small paint projects. It dries aftrer a few hours and has a nice sheen (i use satin). Have only been in my house one year so cant speak to how it fade resistance and adheres other than so far so good.
