    Enamel paint
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I brought this to convert stained trim to white. Goes on smooth, thicker paint, no brush marks on trim. Easy to work with and I absolutely love this paint!

          Stands up to grandkids
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the pour spout system on the paint cans. This product went on smooth and covered well, I used it on our sealed basement brick walls, and has held up very well!

            Great
            I painted my kitchen cabinets and they turned out great. Very pleased when i look at them. Will use Behr paint for all other projects.

              Backbreaking baseboards
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I decided to paint the baseboards in to whole house because I was tired of the dark wood. I started out in the master bedroom and did 2 coats of Killz primer followed by two coats of Behr scuff defense. I missed a little spot in a corner with the primer and decided to test just going with the Behr paint. I was SO happy when it looked just as good as the rest that had been primed! I'm not going to say the rest of the house was a breeze because it was still painting baseboards but it was TWO LESS COATS!! It's been a couple of weeks and I'm enjoying how easy they are to clean too.

                Was just what I needed
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to paint an entertainment center. Since I didn't want to shell out for Marquee since it was a small project, but I wanted it to be durable. It worked great and no scuffing after 6 months of use. I used the leftover paint to freshen up the bathroom, but there the coverage wasn't as great, but I should have primed and I didn't.

                  You get what you pay for
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had to make the kiddo's room into a place she could study.This meant paint,de-clutter,and organize.The paint actually works for her room because she moves her stuff around to make room for projects.

                    More sanding in my future, maybe don't use on trim
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I painted interior trim in spring of 2021. I did a lot of research and chose Behr Interior Semi-Gloss Enamel. It was on several "best" lists for easy of application and clean-up and a working time that reduced brush strokes. I had overall good results with a very smooth application. I'm painting more trim in my house and bought (within the last week) what appeared to be the same product with the exception of the "Scuff Defense" add. The results I had after the first coat were disastrous. It looks like I was using a textured paint. My prep was the same, my surfaces were clean and dry and I used a brand new roller. I don't know if the formula changed significantly over the last several months (although I hope if that were the case the labeling would have been changed more meaningfully to clearly represent a reformulation) but regardless, I wouldn't ever expect a semi-gloss latex paint to appear like this after a single application on a smooth surface. I'm now stuck resanding all of the trim I've already painted and purchasing a new product. Really disappointing to have to take two steps back to sanding and then cleaning up the dust plus another trip back to HD to buy new paint. This is hours of work lost.

                    Thank you for reviewing our paint and sharing your honest feedback. I'm so sorry to hear that the paint has left your trim with a textured finish. I can assure you this product is not designed to be textured. Sanding the surface smooth before repainting will work to fix the issue. I completely understand your disappointment, and I want to help make this right. I've reached out to you via email to learn more about your project and assist you further. Thank you again for taking the time to let us know about your experience with our Ultra Paint, and I hope to hear from you soon!
                      Beautiful finish
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used on my bathroom remodel. Loved the ease of application, the coverage and the finished look is incredible!

                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was hesitant to purchase the product at first, but after I used one gallon and seen the beautiful coverage, I was very happy.

                            Don’t spray it
                            I’ve sprayed hundreds of doors and trim, this is the most problematic paint I’ve ever used! Will not stand on vertical surface, curtains really bad after 20 minutes. Even the lightest of coats still won’t hold! Not happy as it’s costing me money!

                                Not a happy customer
                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this paint thinking that it is the best. I found clumps and it did not cover as much as they stated. I have to now get another gallon to cover what I am painting. I am very disappointed, as I always buy BEHR even though it costs more.

                                Hi DisappointedCustomer, thank you for your review and for being such a loyal Behr customer. I’m so sorry the paint was clumpy and didn’t cover as expected. Typically, a gallon of this paint should cover 250-400 square feet and need about 1-2 coats to fully cover depending on the application, color, and surface. Since the paint was clumpy, I recommend stirring for 5 minutes to see if it goes back to a creamy consistency. If not, it’s best to use a new container to recoat for fuller coverage. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback. I’ll reach out to you directly to assist you with this further. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience with us, and I hope to hear from you soon! -Joni

                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this paint at Home Depot and it was recommend by the sales person. She said for a few dollars more this will hold up against dogs, kids, rough use as compared to their other paints. Am anxious to see how it holds up!

                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought 8 gallons of this paint for my new home. It covered the walls that had wallpaper stripped from them great. It is very thick, so you have to use a good brush and watch for drips. Overall, I am very happy with the way the colors matched the swatch and brightened up my new home!

This paint was imposssible to apply! Needed additional lighting (normally lit area) to see that it not adhering smoothly and now requires another coat - making it WAY too dark.. 1/2 done, and will need to lighten up or go back to white. ALWAYS use BEHR but didn't remember any difficulty like this in the past when the kitchen needed re-painting.

                                                          Hello, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that the color did not turn out as expected and that the paint did not adhere well. I understand how disappointing this can be. I recommend sanding the loose coating off, cleaning the surface, and recoating using a lighter color. I suggest an 8 oz. sample to test the color first with the lighting in your kitchen. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback.

                                                            Thin as Water
                                                            I bought this paint to re-do the trim and ceiling in my bathroom and I'll never use it again. I painted white over white and it took three coats to cover. The first coat dripped a lot (requiring sanding before the next coat) and it didn't cover. The second coat dripped less, but still dripped, and it STILL didn't cover. Third coat looks good. Needless to say, I will NOT be buying this paint to do the walls.

This is not typical, as the paint should have a creamy consistency. Our Ultra Paint will typically cover in 1-2 coats, while darker colors and porous surfaces may require additional coats.
