Pros: Fast painting of walls and ceilings. One coat coverage.
Cons: A pain to clean. Paint waste. Chance of making a big mess if not careful.
Summary: The Wagner Power Roller is a great time saving device for those needing to paint more than one or two walls or ceilings. If you're looking to doing a whole house (or apartment) paint job, its worth the price. It should only be used with latex paints. The ... read more

Summary: I bought a Power Roller with the backpack 15 years ago. It was nice not to have a paint tray and to keep going up and down a ladder. It was a PAIN to clean up...took a good 30 minutes. I used it 2x and that was enough. I got the urge to paint one wall ... read more

Pros: Allows you to paint very quickly.
Cons: Difficult to clean PROPERLY and wastes a lot of paint.
Summary: I've had my Wagner for a couple of years. It's the type of tool that you only pull out for big jobs. It makes quick work of painting walls and ceilings. The problem is that you don't want to use it to paint just one room due to the extensive cleanup ... read more
