What Customers Are Saying

Customers praise this roller for significantly speeding up painting tasks and eliminating constant tray refilling, with many completing entire rooms in under an hour. Reviewers highlight easier access to high walls and ceilings without ladders, plus smoother paint application. However, a substantial portion report serious issues: paint leakage from the handle, rollers detaching unexpectedly, and excessive paint waste during initial loading. Cleanup experiences vary widely depending on paint type and technique. Despite strong time-saving benefits, mechanical failures and waste concerns frustrate many users.

Don't paint amy other way

Would Recommend

These are getting better and better all the time. My first yeats ago was more expensive and not nearly as good. The design is now much better and the price point. Rollers and trays and all cost $30. T his is $29. so much faster and neater way to paint. Your not dripping paint all over. Almost don't need tarps

Read the instructions and you will be happy!

Would Recommend

I hate painting. Vehemently. But this has made the process so much neater and quicker, that I didn't mind painting at all. Cleaning it was a little tedious, but honestly, was well worth it. I saw some iffy reviews, but I think if one reads and follows the directions on use and greasing where it is needed and cleaning as it is supposed to - there should be no leaking or trouble. Read the directions! It is not just fill and go.

Paintstick EZ Roller

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The roller was used on a new room that we and applied primer and two coats of paint on the walls. The roller was easy to load and applied the paint very well with very few drips applied the paint very uniformly. However the cleanup was very time consuming as the roller had to be taken completely apart. You have to make sure the cleanup area is an area where no small parts will be lost. Otherwise the roller will apply paint quickly and easily ...

The Wagner PaintStick EZ Roller is a Game Changer

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used this for a full basement project with Valspar PRO PVA primer followed by Sherwin-Williams Cashmere and it genuinely impressed me. The PaintStick makes priming fast and clean, feeding paint directly through the roller and cutting down on trips to the tray dramatically. For the Cashmere topcoat, I'm particular about even coverage, so I ran the roller through a tray first just to make sure the nap was perfectly loaded before topping off from ...

Works Perfectly

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This roller is very simple to use and seems to work perfectly. It is very simple to operate and control the paint flow. Filling it up is as simple as pushing the pick-up tube in and pulling the plunger back. The clear body allows you to easily see how much paint you have left in the roller and know when to refill. The seals all seem to hold up well and not leak any paint. Overall this is a solid roller and I will be using it on future jobs ...

Works nice, clean-up is a mess.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the PaintStick EZ Roller to paint the underside of a set of eaves (see photo). Day was sunny, low humidity and temperature was in the 70's. There was not much assembly involved but the instructions were clear and well written. Attaching the fill tube to the can of paint was easy as was drawing the paint into the paintstick. It was surprising how much paint it took until the roller was saturated. I had started off with the tube maybe one ...

Didn't work for me, but...

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very short (< 5' height), with small hands and not very strong. Although this roller looked cheaply made with mostly plastic parts, I appreciated that it was not heavy, the thick handle still fit nicely in my hands, and the roller felt sturdy. Unfortunately, I found it difficult to paint with it for three reasons. First, the filler straw was too short for my paint can (5 gal). Pictured here is the smaller can I ended up using (2 gal). You ...

Waste of money

Would Not Recommend

Super heavy. Not a smooth painting job. Just get a regular roller and pole.

Handy Paint Tool

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The PaintStick EZ Roller is overall easy to use. Fill process went smoothly. The paint goes on evenly. Love that you don’t have to keep dipping the roller and it “self-refills”. This feature definitely saves time. Also like the reach and not going up and down a step stool to reach ceiling height. Some of the time saved is spent on the end cleaning the “system”.
