Wagner SMART Edge Automatic Paint Roller - 9 in. Coverage, EdgeLock Feature, Scalloped Nap ALL-in-One Roll Glider

I am using this to paint a small room. This does what it says but consider below comments: 1. It really keeps area clean and less messy. 2. It is heavy over time and was ok (for me) on walls, but for ceiling it's a challenge, I am not short and not very strong. My challange for ceiling is its heavy weight and it may need to have a bit longer arm to paint comfortable. It really needs strength over time, so if a person needs to buy he or she should understand this point specifically if it's not one or two walls. 3. Its cleaning is straight forward but time consuming and that's life you cannot get everything all the time. To me, I would probably rather use normal roller and use more sheets to protect floor, rather than cleaning at the end if the day. Knowing what I know after buying this, I would probably opt for normal roller, but it is a good item. I'll give 4 stars for the efforts done. I had no issues, no spillage, no paint falling or whatsoever when I used but noticed some reviewers said so.

It is a bad product and not worth for money. Worst part is I requested for a return and the seller has not contacted me for 2 months. Whenever I call them, they say i would get a mail from seller and Amazon cannot do anything. I don't understand their logic. Don't go for this product.

this paint roller works perfectly, provided you understand how it works . it will not suck up emulsion paint immediately requiring several attempts to wet the inside of the paint tube, it is best if paint is sucked into the tube manually and then several attempts will get it working correctly Try on a plain wall to get the idea of how it works ,if too much paint is loaded using power button paint will drip off roller , as I said trial and error .I have used this type of roller for years This roller is very efficient at applying emulsion to walls and ceilings, the tube holds about one litre. Like all paint rollers preperation to pre paint interface areas is required . The batteties (4/AA cells) last for days,about 20 litres . A few pointers ...the so called duck bill valve is made of rubber and closes after every fill to prevent backflow , careless usage when filling will distort the valve and cause leaks new valves are available at rediculous prices coming from usa to europe . The roller need not be cleaned every day just exclude air with a plastic bag .Finally any paint in tube can be forced back into container manually and cleaning is carried out the same as any paint roller it is critical that all paint is flushed out before storing as hard paint can damage seals .Finally why can wagner not suppy a few spare duckbill seals with the new product

I purchased this to paint a ceiling, thinking it’d be less climbing up and down, and less splattering. While this may not be the ideal use case, it did a surprisingly good job. I can see it’d be great for walls. Wish I’d had it for years. And this is coming from someone who has painted professionally and personally for many years, with all the best tools available. This will be a part of the arsenal going forward. It takes a little time to get the technique down, but it’s easy. People who are complaining must be unable to understand simple flow mechanics. I think some reviews are overstating the cleanup. It is more than a simple roller (duh), but really not much. We had it looking like new in a simple basin sink in probably 15 minutes.

This is the second Wagner smart roller I have purchased. The first one leaks and leaks and thus useless. I thought I would give it another try and try this baby one - maybe it's better built or easier to handle - nope! Same thing. Leaks from every joint! I have tried both multiple times - thinking maybe its me. My husband, who is very good with tools - a mechanic and technician and he got the same result - leak, leak, leak. I read all the lovely reviews and watched the youtube videos that say it is so easy and so fast and so "neat". That is BS. I really do not see how that is possible at all. So I have wasted money twice. And it wasted a lot of paint. made a huge mess. Sometimes manual is just so much better. What a rip-off. I trusted the brand. I will not trust this brand ever again.
