Very convenient

Game Changer for Open Concept Living

I painted my ceiling and 10-foot walls of a large open space that includes my living room, kitchen, dining room, and breakfast room. Using this roller made the job go significantly faster than manual rolling. The extended reach of the handle allowed me to easily tackle the high ceilings and tall walls without constantly climbing up and down a ladder. However, holding a tube filled with paint, while painting the ceilings caused noticeable arm fatigue. Despite the heavy weight, it was an excellent...

Low quality

It broke in a couple of days. Roller won't stay on and fell, spreading paint all over the place.

It’s difficult to get the paint to pull into the shaft.

Almost there!

This thing is a gimmick. It only worked for like two rooms before it just sucked up more air than paint. I loved the idea, but it just failed to finish the job. It certainly was an awesome concept, it was wonderful to use for the first room and then as I progressed into the next room, it just got worse and worse when trying to suck paint up.

Made the job easier and faster, only used it once so far

Thirteen inch Easy stick

I love this product makes life so much easier I give it a hundred

Easy to use, not so much to clean up.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had the chance to use the PaintStick EZ Roller to paint a 700sq foot (approx) bedroom. The initial setup was very easy. At first I was confused about the small tube of petroleum jelly but it made total sense that the entry tube would need a little bit of this on there so it would slide on and off easily. It took me a few times to really fill the tube appropriately. My first go around I only put a little paint in there and it was gone rather q...

No drip!

I liked the roller. I didn't have to worry about paint dripping on the floor. Make sure you keep the nap filled with paint to make the roller perform well. Gave the product 1 less star due to the roller not being high quality and clean up being a little difficult. Will definitely need to buy a new roller for each job.

Bought this to help with the hard to reach spots like ceilings. Convenient to not have to climb a ladder up and down to replenish the paint on the roller.

Hate to Paint

Yes, it takes longer to clean up than throwing away and old style roller. But, bottom line, it lays down a great looking paint job and it's easy to clean with a garden hose and a bucket. Once you clean it once, it's super easy to clean again (learning curve!). Just rinse the roller repeatedly until there's absolutely no paint left. Rince and store the roller in a zip lock bag, with water overnight to make multiple day projects easier, and then do the total roller rinse before you store it aw...

Cant rate zero

Bought this to roll out a ceiling because I didn’t want to have to tape off for my paint sprayer. I loaded 1/3 of a gallon of ceiling paint in it and started trying to roll and nothing came out. I kept pumping and it eventually started sort of getting wet but even after filling it twice the coverage was horrible. I ended up going back to a regular roller. I can’t recommend this to anyone and will attempt to take mine back as a defective product.

Extremely Inefficient product

I rate this a 1 because 0 is not an option. The loading process to get paint into the stick had multiple problems. On a can of paint that only held 1/3 of the can, the suction process to get the paint into the roller would not work (it would not draw paint into the handle). On a full can, I could still only load about half the handle with paint. Once the paint was loaded, getting the paint to feed into the roller went OK, but required many pulls of the trigger handle to resupply the roller. ...
