Ratings & Reviews for Wagner Flexio 5000 Electric Stationary HVLP Paint Sprayer (Compatible with Stains)

Nice

Bought to paint some doors. Have only used once. Worked well. Wish box it is stored in was a bit bigger. Once you take it out, cannot get the lid to shut again.

Flexio 5000 .....Two days using my first spray gun

Painted a stairwell to the basement plus walls and drop ceiling in our 34' rec room. Surface prep, hanging plastic, covering flooring and whatever you leave in the room is pretty time consuming. Read the manual 3 or 4 times. It's a big deal. YouTube videos are helpful for learning and procedures...like cleaning. I primed and painted all surfaces with latex products. Thinning was not necessary. I disassembled the nozzle and used Dawn and hot water for cleanup. I immerse these parts and fl...

Stop Brushing, Start Spraying

I've built many projects over the years from furniture to built ins. When I've painted those items, I went with a brush, and while OK, I can't say I was completly satisfied having spent so much effort in the build to only be OK with the final result. I thought about spraying, but did not like the cans, and did not want to spend money on an expensive spray system. I found several YouTube videos of pros and DIY using the Flexio 5000 and I tried it. I could not be happier with the ease of us...

Great sprayer

I have a one man furniture shop and this product gives me the finish I need to make distressed furniture, Thank you A Step Back in Tyme

Great sprayer!

I love my Flexio 5000. I bought a Home Right Super Max Finish first so I’m going to make some comparisons between them. The Flexio sprays a super nice and beautiful finish. I find the Home Right has more of a tendency to sputter paint. I use Wise Owl acrylic enamel and Behr primer. I do strain every time. I love how easy the Flexio is to clean! It seriously cleans up so fast. The Home Right is a bit of a pain and takes forever to get paint out of places! The Home Right has a top fo...

inconsistent, faulty ispray nozzle, faulty trigger

Well marketed poor product. 2 min paint claim is a big joke, it is simply not possible. To paint a small room, it took few hours that too after using several tricks. It looked great feature wise. Followed all the recommendations including wagner's tip about wiping the nozzle with wet cloth, filtering the paint etc.). But after painting about 60-70 sq.ft. the first time cup filled, trigger stopped working. Spray pattern reduced by 75%. Also every time the cup is re-filled, the nozzle starts spit...

Why did I wait so long?

I am so happy with my Wagner 5000. I had several painting projects lined up because I had procrastinated so long. I really hate painting but with this paint sprayer it was an absolute breeze! I had all of those projects knocked out in an afternoon and was looking around for anything else I could paint. It was so easy and fun I wanted to keep going.

Great when it works - loss of power

Got through one cabinet and the unit loses power randomly. I believe the design of the power switch is the main issue in that the air hose gets quite warm/hot as the switch wire handles the overall power for the unit lines the inside of the hose. Poor design.

Don’t wait to buy!

I flip furniture for a hobby & bought this at the recommendation of another artist. I should have pulled the trigger sooner! Easy to set up, use, and clean. Smooth finish once correct consistency of paint is established.

This thing is VERY Useful! My Wagner Flexio 5000

I had been debating for a while on whether or not to purchase a power sprayer. I have some projects I needed to get done (namely a deck to repaint) and after getting a few quotes...I was definitely going to do it myself. I researched and opted to purchase the Flexio 5000. My first time using a Wagner Sprayer (or any power sprayer for that matter), I had three raised garden beds I wanted to paint. I watched a few you tube how-to's and I was setup and painting in about 20 minutes. I was able to ge...

Newbie sprayer made easy

I asked for this for Xmas and finally opened it 4 months later, afraid of how complex and messy it would be, but it wasn't at all! I watched the YouTube video to do set up and clean up. I read the directions as I went and it was VERY easy to use. I tried spraying paint first with the detailed sprayer and it was fine like a spray can. I really appreciated the practice poster that comes with it. I switched up the adjustments and saw how the dials worked better. Next I tried spraying an outdoor sea...

Power to use undiluted latex paint

We painted our kitchen cabinets and I used the Detail nozzle. Behr Cabinet & Trim paint undiluted sprayed just fine, except to achieve the satin sheen, the Detail nozzle doesn’t put out a high enough quantity of paint for it to self level. I should have used the bigger nozzle and dialed down the paint volume. Lesson learned. Cleaning was quick and easy. Fantastic valu for the money.

Easy to use

This was gifted to me, used to paint my kitchen cabinets, nice even flow, I didn’t use Flowtrol in this mixture, but I should have, as Home Depot paint is super thick, I was impressed with the plastic used in the construction as i5 cleaned up real nice.

Very poor piece of equipment.

This sprayer just spits paint out, paint drools out of the nozzle, and it clogs up constantly. I am an experienced craftsman, and this is the worst piece of equipment I think I have ever had. It should not be sold.

Easy to use

I bought the Flexio 5000 about a month ago and have painted both of my Golden Oak vanities in my bathrooms. My wife is very finicky and she said they look professional!!!! It is very easy to use and cleanup is very quick. The only reason I gave 4 stars is the air control knob is very hard to turn I almost have to use pliers. I am very happy with the finish it provides.

Easy to use

My husband bought this sprayer for me as an anniversary gift (as requested!). My first project was two front porch rockers. They turned out great and I think the learning process for using the Flexio 5000 was fast. I'll get a lot of use out of it for other furniture painting projects as well as other household projects.
