[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] PaintStick EZ Roller was used to apply two coats of paint onto a vaulted ceiling. It was nice not to have to come down the ladder to dip in a pan, only coming down to move the ladder. Also, it was a very clean process, pulling paint directly from the pail was awesome and didn't hardly need a drop cloth. Regarding cons: tear-down and cleanup. Difficult to remove the end-caps from the roller (wet paint), and about 8 pieces to clean - lots of paint went down the drain. It was a bit of a process, one that would probably require the use of much more than a 1/2 gallon of paint to justify using again. The inner roller space is Styrofoam, and "may never be the same" after the dark grey paint used. Not confident it would be advisable to run white paint through now. Don't forget to Vaseline the valve!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Wagner EZ-Roller is a good product. I was a bit skeptical at first, but not anymore. It was easy to load. It did take a while to figure out how much to squeeze the trigger. We painted our hallway and did some touching up. We were very impressed with the lack of dripping. We were able to touch up several places without using a drop cloth as long as we didn’t roll too fast. I would recommend this product for bigger jobs, but a long clean up process would prevent me from using it for small jobs. Overall, I was very impressed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Basement Paint Roll EZ ( PUN Intended ). Today I painted our redesigned basement hangout TV / Workout / Party area. First I cut in the ceiling, floor trim wall sockets and corners. Then I used the EZ Roller the paint three walls with the EZ Roller. Wow it so effortless to refill the EZ Roller straight from the paint can the PaintStick EZ Roller never dripped one paint drop onto anything throughout the whole project. The PaintStick EZ Roller has a fill tube that you simply place down into the gallon sized paint can. When your ready to fill or refill the PaintStick EZ Roller simply press the fill valve on the PaintStick EZ Roller onto the the fill tube and slowly pull the plunger until it is full to the desired amount. Finished 3 walls in 22 minutes. We are ready to finish the remaining basement walls. Cleanup of the EZ Roller was a breeze. I filled a bucket of water and started rinsing and refilling the bucket until the water was almost clear. Once the majority of paint was removed from the the roller, I began with a clean bucket of water In used the fill tube for paint and pulled the PaintStick EZ Roller fill tube to pull in clean water adjust kept flushing water out of the PaintStick EZ Roller until it was clear on exit of the PaintStick EZ Roller. I will not be returning to traditional paint rolling and paint pouring from the bucket to roller pan.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good functioning paint stick for the value which I feel saved about half the time to paint a 12' x 14' room including the ceiling. I cleaned the roller first by using masking tape to remove any extraneous lint from manufacturing. It fed the paint easily into the tube and took a couple of trigger pumps and rolling to get going but once primed it just flowed nicely and less paint was used as opposed to using a paint pan in my opinion. I was able to finish all four walls in about 20 minutes refilling four times and the ceiling in about 15 minutes refilling twice. Clean up was easy using a hose outside over the drain.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thought I would give the EZ Roller a shot to simplify painting and take the stress out of clean up. The roller was easy to use and eliminated the need for trays and trips up and down a ladder to reach tough spots. The overall concept works because it saves you time, money and gets painting done much more quickly than with a conventional roller. Cleanup was a breeze! I look forward to using this for other rooms as well. Well worth it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To start off the Paint Stick was easy to put together and use. It was a little heavier than and usual broom handle but that was to be expected, It was easy to load with paint and was great for being able to just keep paint without having to dip the roller every few minutes, I was able to cover the whole roof with one coat without having to reload which was great. It was really sturdy to be made out of plastic. I have to say I really liked it and would recommend to my friends and family. Overall a great product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I will never go back to using a regular roller again. I had some questions if this would work as well as advertised and it did. Concern1 - Would it fill up as easy as it looks? It does. No dripping of paint while entering the tube. The fill tube attached securely to the paint can and stayed put as I pulled the plunger back to load the paint in. Concern2 - Would the paint come out evenly while rolling? After I loaded the tube, I began squeezing the trigger. I didn't see any paint coming out when rolling even though the tube was emptying. I reloaded the tube a 2nd time and it began to fill the roller to use. It takes a little to fill the roller at first. It is very easy to use the roller as you just need to squeeze the trigger and the paint comes out through the roller. The first time I run through the paint in the roller, I let it go all the way out. I had to prime it twice to get the paint back in. The next time as I was about to run out of paint, I left about 2" of paint in the tube and it was much easier to load and I did it with pulling the plunger back just one time. I encountered no runs or drips while using this roller. The paint comes out very nicely. When you flip the roller to roll in the other direction it works just as well. I have attached a picture showing how little paint was splattered on to the roller after I was done. I only had to refill the tube 4 times to paint the entire hallway. When using a regular roller, the roller will sometimes start sliding off the handle. This roller stayed put throughout the whole job. I did need to stand on a scaffold to paint the taller part of the wall. I felt much safer using this roller as I didn't have to constantly bend down to reload the roller with paint. This allowed me to get down much faster. Concern3 - How easy would it be to clean up? The tube that holds the paint was perfectly designed as hardly any paint stays there as the plunger pushes it forward. I attached a picture showing how clean the tube was when I was done. Cleanup was pretty easy as I just followed the written instructions. Everything cleaned up nicely and is ready to sue again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is great very easy to use and saves time. Makes the jobs way easier would suggest this for any painting job,. Easy to reach higher places for short people or tall people as well cuts your job in half easily

It takes almost 2 tubes of paint to get started. It does do great coverage BUT painting lower areas are hard and awkward. I switched to the regular roller after first coat

The paint stick itself was easy to use, but the plastic piece that feeds the paint broke after sucking up paint the first time. Very frustrating

Missing the yellow screw on cap. Paint went everywhere upon squeezing the trigger.

This roller uses up, and wastes, a lot of paint with very poor coverage. Most of the paint stays inside the delivery components and never makes it to the roller. It can only be used in a wide open room as the plunger sticks out far behind you when the roller is full. The metal tube next to the roller nicked and scratched my trim on the door frames. I felt like I wasted more time prepping and continuously getting paint than I would with a regular roller and tray. Won’t use again.

Didn’t perform as expected

Great concept, Regular roller works better and way less hassle.

The inner feed roller is not fairly available in the market and it is expensive. The whole system is usable for one day and one time

I bought this thinking it would be easy but it did not dispense paint properly. I cleaned it very well and the second time I used it the paint kept spilling out the side. Did not have a good experience with it.

It’s broken and now it is in the trash. The end roller clip broke and wouldn’t attach to the feeder tube.

Works well for popcorn ceilings.

It is a game changer!

Worked once, then never again.

Very poor. Would not purchases or advise anyone to purchase. Paint still went everywhere and used up a lot of paint in the process. Ended up throwing out after 30 minutes of use.

First use. Work excellent. No spill no drip after one wall had the hang of it. Clean up was some time but wanted it to last so spent more time. Basically you flush it out warm soapy water

Roller clogged very easily. Have owned one before and this one is very cheaply made compared to my older version.
