Wagner Power Roller Max Review

I have so many  mixed feelings about the Wagner Power Roller Max. So, Ill tell you a little about my experience.

We had two rooms to paint so my husband bought me the Wagner Power Roller Max as a surprise. I was excited to try it. I wanted two different colors and I was sure one gallon of each was enough paint. I read the instructions thorough before using and was ready to go!

I started by using the trim attachment, and used it on the lowest setting and used the on/off style of painting as the manual suggested. What a mess! Paint was all over the plastic I put down, all over the unit, and all over me. At this point I was irritated. So, I decided to use a paintbrush for the trimming. When I started using the roller it was great. It covered nicely and I could control how much paint came out by both the on/off switch and the pumping strength. I completed one room with one paint color and was shocked to notice I needed another gallon of paint. I was so shocked because the room I did was not very big and because I only but this color on the bottom of the wall.  

So all-in-all this painter was great for the roller attachment, the other attachments took lots of practise. The painter used a lot of paint, and was honestly, very, very tedious to clean. Im not sure if it was worth the cost vs. a pan and traditional roller. If in doubt....
