Too heavy and cumbersome for ceilings and most walls

Pros: Quality materials, good assembly and easy assembly. So why only 3 stars? This is not an easy-to-use tool. The first big issue is weight. Durable, high quality aluminum versus plastic equals heavy weight and after trying to paint the ceiling I was tired. I also added an extended pole. This added extra weight that only increased as the color flowed through. The trigger is also a serious disadvantage. It works great when spraying walls, but isn't very ergonomic when used at the end of a…

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Some bugs

Do not use extension cords with it

Due to the vaulted ceiling, I tried using an extension cord. Worked fine at first, then started leaking. The leakage got worse over time despite repeated tightening. There is a pressure setting for rolling. It didn't help with my leak. The leak was caused by rotating the paint roller to get closer to the door upholstery etc. This arrangement is very useful for large areas of primer. Much faster than manually rolling a 9 inch bead. Roughly the same as manually rolling a 14 inch reel. Place the…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Does the job but too expensive

I bought this Graco Pressure primarily to paint the outside of my house in windy weather, which is often the case. It gets the job done, but the 45-degree rotation makes it a bit awkward to use. For the price of this accessory, it should have included a straight atomizer handle instead of a swivel. A large stand cover over the 20 inch extension would have been nice for a more comfortable grip when using this device. I had a similar product that I bought about 20 years ago that was made by…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • A bit torn

Great product but not for everyone (may shed light on negative reviews)

I have ordered over 2000 items from Revain and this is one of my few reviews. This product is awesome but now I understand why it got some negative reviews. This product is not for the mechanically incompetent. If you are a business owner and you have unskilled and lazy employees, they will ruin everything. You can't keep up the pressure all the time. You just leave it running from time to time when you need more color. With constant or excessive pressure, the roller swells and eventually…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Some small things

Tedious to clean and a bit heavy but still a must for a good paint finish

I have used an electric paint roller for decades and bought it along with a Graco sprayer to improve it. others I have used in the past. Still undecided on the spray gun as this is my first time using the Graco to paint with a roller nozzle. It's a little tricky to set up and I'm missing the screen on one side of the reel. For blankets, very quickly lift the roller assembly over the tires. I had to play around with the pressure a bit, but I eventually adjusted it so that I could pull the…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Very expensive

Great for big projects but not good with primer

I painted my entire house with this roller and a Graco Magnum X7 machine, about 12 gallons of primer, 6 gallons of ceiling paint and 10 gallons of latex paint. The latex paint (ceiling and wall) laid down great, very little dripping or spattering (I started with drip trays, but after the third room it didn't bother me anymore and I was left with a large flattened cardboard box under the pressure washer and a bucket of paint ). The primer got worse (thinner than the paint), with more drips…

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Some cons
