Disappointed
I am unbelievably disappointed. i order the Graco Magnum 257025 Project Painter Plus Paint Sprayer and waited two weeks for the wind to die down and the temperature to be just right so that i can begin my paint project. setting up the machine is effortless and the step by step guide is very clear. After set up i primed the sprayer, used two separate buckets and everything seemed to be working just fine. i did a test spray on a piece of wood to determine the right pressure for the flow and i was excited to start working. as i began spraying primer on my stucco the machine started making noises and pressure immediately stopped flowing through the hose. i looked back at the machine and a pool of paint was now on the ground and under the machine. it appears the spray hose is faulty and does not maintain a proper seal when attached. paint continued to spray out covering the painters plastic i laid down. If i was doing this project in doors, i think i would have lost my mind.
I have already processed the refund and will be returning the machine via UPS tomorrow. For a great looking and easy to use product, it failed. If i could bill the company for the paint I lost, I WOULD. i do not recommend this product because many of the negative reviews complain about the same gasket/connection issue. find an alternative even if you are looking to save a few bucks.
