    Pathetic coverage
    Just finished 3rd coat of a “one coat” product. I typically use Benjamin Moore product but dealer I usually purchase from closed and I live in the mountains and Home Depot was open. Bought it on recommendation and applied with their premium rollers. No bueno.

    Hi there, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that you're not getting good coverage. Our Marquee Paint should cover in one coat when tinted to one of the one-coat colors and applied over a previously painted surface. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback. Please reach out to us directly if you need further assistance; our customer care team is happy to help you! -Ronald Behr
      This is not a one coat paint.
      Absolutely the worst paint I've ever used. Takes multiple coats and does not level well. Paint stuck to my brush and roller more than to the wood. I'll never buy another behr product. I'll also reconsider paint products in general from home depot.

      Hi there, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that you're not getting good coverage and that the paint didn't level well. Our Marquee Paint should cover in one coat when tinted to one of the one-coat colors and applied over a previously painted surface and be a smooth, creamy consistency. Customer Care team is on standby and ready to help. Please contact us directly so we can further assist you with a resolution. We look forward to hearing from you. -Ronald Behr
        Beautiful white interior paint
        I wasn't sure if I would love the all white walls for my newly remodel home. I'm more of a colorful wall paint haha. But this white polar bear color is amazing! It's not bright for the eyes. All morning and afternoon there's plenty of sun shining in our home so makes it perfectly cozy. The only complaint is that you can see if the walls are dirty.

          Paint cut in and rolled on very nice. I had primed the area before hand due to the previous color being very dark. I know it says one coat paint but going from a dark color to a light one is asking a lot. I did have a few spots that were coated light but I chalk that up to user error and not the paint performance. Bought this grade paint because of excellent reviews on CR.

          Paint Doesn’t Match
          Bought 2 gallons at the same time, same paint code knowing it wouldn’t cover in one coat. Applied 2nd coat & the colors do not match!! One can is a slightly darker than other. Called Home Depot & was told mixed paint is non-returnable regardless of issue. Spent over $100 for 2 gallons & now need to spend even more to try to fix! Purchased this paint based on recommendation, never again….will go back to my normal cheaper paint.

          Hi Bruce, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear the color didn't turn out as expected when using the Marquee Interior Paint. Multiple paint cans of the same color can vary slightly, and mixing these cans together is important, as the color variations will blend together and ensure uniformity. If the color is slightly off, we recommend allowing it to dry for 24 hours before comparing it with the color card/swatch. If still not desired, color matching to the color card or choosing a new color is best. Nonetheless, your satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback. Please reach out to us directly if you need further assistance. Our customer care team is happy to help you! - Randy Behr

            Perfect Color!
            This is simply beautiful! I have been searching for a great color to go in my living room and I saw a Youtube DIYer use this in her home so I got a sample and tested it on the walls and fell in love! It is a nice medium toned neutral/taupe, slightly moody. I did color drenching (walls, trim, ceiling) hoping it wouldn't make the room appear smaller (60's ranch), and it definitely didn't! In fact, it actually made the room look more pulled together, if that makes sense.

              Not a one coat wonder
              Unfortunately this paint is not one coat as advertised. Also, a skin develops fairly quickly, so going back to fix something isn’t possible. Two coats did the trick. Low odor.

                Hi Pockets, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear about the stripes on your wall after your second coat of Marquee paint. This isn't the experience we want our customers to have. To fix the streaks, I recommend applying another coat while maintaining a wet edge with your roller. You can also apply the paint in columns, reloading your roller after each column to help you eliminate the roller marks and get the best coverage. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we'd like to help get your project back on track. Please feel free to reach out to us directly so we can further assist. We look forward to hearing from you! -Christina Behr
                  DON'T RECCOMEND!!!!!!
                  Bought a 5 gallon bucket to do the whole house (my house is 704 Sq. ft.). 5 gallon should've been enough, but due to it not being "1 coat guaranteed ", I now have to go and buy more. It's taking 3-4 coats on a very pale grey. I'm not impressed with the paint. It dries too fast and starts clumping on the brush, I've had to buy many new brushes due to that. You have to paint fast because it also makes the walls super tacky! Waste of money!!! NOT HAPPY!!!

                  Hi Lizz, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear about the trouble you've run into with our Marquee Paint. That is not the experience we want for our customers, and I can understand your frustration. Our Marquee Paint is guaranteed to cover in one coat when tinted to a One-Coat Color and applied over previously coated surfaces. Colors outside the One-Coat Collection, like Nano White HDC-MD-06, may need additional coats for uniformity. To extend the dry time of the paint, you can add up to 4oz. of water per gallon if needed. In any case, your customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback. Please reach out to us directly if you need further assistance; our Customer Care team is happy to help! -Lina Behr

                    Took multiple coats, thick consistency
                    I was excited to see a “one coat guaranteed” paint to save me time and paint. I bought the Marquee paint Cameo White (a guaranteed “one coat” color); however, the paint needed two coats even with a 1/2” nap to cover the previously painted wall. The consistency was very thick as well - my wife compared it to “painting with Elmer’s glue”. From my experience, it’s definitely not worth the 50% increase over the lower level paint.

                    Hi Wade, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that the paint was too thick and did not cover in one coat.

                      The paint required 2 coats to cover a very light grey wall. As a result one gallon only covered 3 walls of a 14 x 12 bedroom.

                        Scratches very easy after 1 week of curing
                        I’ve been a proud user of behr paints for many years. Three years ago, we painted our entire house in a grey color. It was a very satisfying color, but within two years anywhere the kids or anything bumped into it peeled like soft butter. Zero durability Fast forward to February of 2023, again we bought Behr premium with primer paint. We love the color, but after seven days of curing it scraped like butter. This paint was supposed to be one coat coverage on the lighter color two coats on the darker color. We’ve given ample time to cure, and the corner of a canvas picture, barely rubbed against it and peeled it like butter. we will not be using Behr paint products ever again.

                        Hi Robert, thank you for your review. Sorry to hear that your having an issue with the paint scratching after the paint drying a week. As it turns out, the paint takes about 30 days to completely cure and reach its full hardness. I'd recommend lightly sanding the scratched area and touching up with paint.

                          Beautiful color in the living room
                          Painted my living room and the color came out so beautifully, I had to do two coats to get it really nice solid and even coverage. No odors and it’s been holding up well no scuffs or anything. Definitely glad I went with this color

                              I really like this paint color. Try not to overlap adjacent wet areas too much or it can effect the sheen and you might see roller marks with only one coat. Working a 3' area top to bottom worked best for me. I was able to cover the walls in just one coat, except where I used a brush along the edges, needed 2 coats. Trim color shown is Creek Bend

                              First time use and not as advertised
                              I bought this as I was hoping to not have to do more than one coat. Definitely not as advertised. I bought 4 different colors as I was doing three rooms. Each room was either white or yellow. The paints I purchased were all darker than what was already on the walls. Had to get more paint as each room required two coats. This isn't my first time paint walls, and I've used a different brand before (cheaper and have always had to do two coats). I am more really disappointed.

                                I bought the eggshell by mistake. Our wall looked incredible blotchy. I went back and bought the satin and it turned out perfect. Satin 5 stars eggshell was a waste of time.

                                Covers well, low odor, beautiful paint, but over really rough old surfaces it takes a lot of paint.
                                Beautiful, low odor paint. the only downside is that when trying to cover older, rough wood, the coverage is much much less than the stated coverage on the can, and still required multiple coats. for the price I had hoped/expected that a single coat would be enough. That being said, I would buy this paint again since it goes on beautifully and does cover well.
