Great longevity
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My house in Anchorage, which has 3 sides of T-111 and 1 side of Hardy Plank, was painted in 2 coats of Behr Ultra 9 years ago by a pro painter using an airless sprayer with back rolling. It still looks great and does not require a repaint yet. I’m very satisfied with Behr Ultra. The small areas I’ve needed to touch up match exactly.

          Prefer Behr paint above all others
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I paint one side of the house every year for four years. The side I have painted first still looks as if I just painted it and there is no color difference between the first and last year.

                I like the coverage of paint.
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been consistently using this paint to repaint my home and out buildings. I love the coverage and I really hope for long term coverage.

                  A painting with excellent results
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently made the purchase of Berh Ultra to paint the exterior of my home. I live in a place with a sub-tropical climate where it rains very frequently during the year in addition to having a high percentage of humidity in the surroundings. My first impression was the coverage: from the first coat of paint the previous color was not observed. The second impression: the paint does not create stains when continuing to paint no matter if the direction of the roll is changed when painting, the third impression: the paint dries quickly and the colors are very vivid. Also after the house was painted there was rain and the paint did not fade. I am very satisfied with the results, which agree with the details presented by the Berh company regarding the properties of the product. I 100% recommend this product.

                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife and I painted garage door Asphalt grey and front door Tart Orange against a pure white stucco. We sold this house in a week in part to a awesome MCM color pallet and fresh look.

                        Ultra Exterior Paint
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best exterior paint I have ever purchased. It goes on smoothly and actually covers I one coat; however, I did two coats as the wood will be in sunlight more than rain. Love that it is primer and paint in one. You just can’t go wrong with this product.

                          Perfect for the job
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this paint to rehab a shed. The project turned out better than we hoped. The wood was very rough, but this paint had great coverage. It was very easy to work with. And the clean-up was also easy. We will use this product again.

                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this product every time I paint the exterior of my house. It flows well when brushed and shows evenly when rolled, very high quality product at a good value.

                                        Paint was not consistent
                                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought three different colors of the Exterior Ultra to paint wood doors and trim. The brown colored paint was surprisingly good and easy to apply. The yellow colored paint was a disappointment. The paint had a different consistency, and the paint job was not going or looking good. I don’t trust the fancy plastic one gallon paint can lids with the openable plug to provide a dependable seal. I suspect my new can of paint started to dry out before I opened the can, or I got a bad batch. I find out more as the project progresses.

                                          Behr Ultra Exterior Flat is EXCEPTIONAL
                                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been buying Behr Ultra Exterior Flat for years. I live in the Northeast in an almost one hundred year old house and the seasons can be punishing on the the shingles/surface. There is spot scraping to do on some part of the house every year. I love the coverage and finish provided by Behr Ultra!

                                              Flat isn't really flat
                                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this to paint the exterior of our house which is a sanded stucco finish. Our HOA requires that we use a flat sheen paint. When the painters did the first coat, we were very disappointed in the sheen and what appeared to be uneven coverage. We thought it will get better with the 2nd coat. After the 2nd coat some of the unevenness went away but still left flashing on a large portion of the house. We had the painters do a 3rd coat and even a 4th coat in a lot of areas simply to try and eliminate the appearance of streaks and flashing. Any money we saved by using BEHR instead of Dunn Edward's paint was lost to having to paint 3 and 4 coats in all areas just to eliminate the sheen that was still coming through even though it was FLAT paint. Our house still looks as though we used Satin finish to paint our house. The HOA asked us if we truly used a flat finish paint and we sent them a photo. We are not happy with the results and neither is our HOA.

                                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this on a 1965 cottage home with wide white siding 2 years ago. It has held up excellently and I painted it with the color of the year. Turned out beautiful!

                                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a few weeks ago and it looks great! The painter has started from the back of the house, see photo below. The only way to choose the color you like is to buy at least 3 samples in the shade you prefer and then paint them in a spot to choose your color. There are so many to choose from! This color is on a beach house and it is, March Aquamarine. I bought 3 samples in the shade of my preference and picked this one. I am so very happy with this color! Sometimes the colors look different shades when you paint them on the walls and it dries. Behr paint has such large varieties of colors and shades to choose from it’s amazing!
