Pros: Cheap, paints great, easy to clean.
Cons: Stiff hose and needs a swivel but you can buy them.
Summary: I don't know why people are complaining so much about this tool. I bought one and sprayed 2000 sq ft non-stop without a problem. Sure you have to clean it afterwards but it's not a big problem. Obviously water based paints are going to be much easier

Pros: Good for one or two jobs, well constructed, cheap, sprays well.
Cons: Unbelievably stupid hopper design, stiff hose, PITA to clean, very messy.
Summary: A guy at Home Depot convinced me to save $100 and buy this instead of a Graco Magnum DX, and silly me listened. While it sprays quite well, the hopper is a miracle of poor design. The function of a hopper is to funnel contents into an outlet. This hopper
