Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I previously ordered a more common/expensive brand of sprayer and returned it on a whim due to the good Homeright reviews. This item does not disappoint! This was my first time using a sprayer, so I don't have any other basis of comparison; HOWEVER, this sprayer made my bathroom vanity look like a professional job. Right out of the box, it was super easy to use. Pros: *Professional finish for a novice *Ease of use right out of the box *Lightweight and ergonomically superior to another brand I tried *Sprays more types of paint than similarly priced big box brand sprayers Cons: *Not a heavy duty sprayer (and it is not advertised to be), so thinning the paint to the right viscosity is a bit annoying *Uses way more paint than rolling *Does not come with a cap for paint reservoir making it annoying between coats Time-saving tip: 32 ounce paint sprayer liners are your friends! Paint cannot sit in sprayers long enough for a coat to dry and you can go for round 2. This means that it is best to clean out your sprayer between coats. At first I was thinking man, this is annoying. This raises a problem because as I mentioned 1) the sprayer paint cup doesn't have a cap to store your paint and 2) you need clean water in the spray cup to clear your gun. *How did I solve this problem? I lined my cup with paint liners and then in between coats, twisted the top, secured it with a tie and stuck it in a larger plastic bag (backup to prevent spills - learned the hard way with gray paint all over my kitchen counter). This meant that I could easily fill my spray cup with clean water (without having to buy an extra one) and clean my gun in no time. When it was time for another coat, I just popped the bag right back in and stirred the paint and got to work! I hope this helps someone!
