great roller would reccomend to anyone

this roller does what it says on the tin, it gives great coverage with no mess. it's really easy to use, but be aware it may be easy to fill the roller with no mess from the pouring jug but remember you have to get the paint from the tin into the jug first and this is the only time you could experience trouble ( a bit of mess ) depends how you do it I personally used a ladle.

also I have seen comments from other users who have complained that the roller doesn't last long
this is true up to a point, the sleeve does wear and need replacing after a while as it is made of a microfibre material but web managed to paint three ceilings ( four coats each ) after they were re-plastered of good size rooms before the roller sleeve started to show signs of inconsistencies in the surface texture of the paint gbeing applied.great roller

Don't get rid of your paint brushes

I had to add water to my paint as it was too thick and wouldn't come through. The edge roller thing is pointless as leaves approx 1/2 inch gap so still need to go round door frames etc with a paintbrush.

I found it messy to fill up, and quite heavy, I have carpal tunnel so was a struggle. Spent nearly 1/2 hour rolling to get any paint through. The sponge rips easily on the corner tool and it takes ages to wash out.

I enjoy painting and the final outcome once completed but I found this long winded, tedious and boring, I personally found it useless and went back to my normal rollers and I finished it in half the time.

The quality I expected more for £30.00 it was cheaply made

Uneven surfaces don't bother it leaves patches so still need the good old rollers and brushes

Expecting too much - sorry, my fault

I bought this Roller Pro to use with sealer on my decking. Unfortunately, the clear liquid I bought was not a paint and was far too thin to stay in the Pro's roller compartment. It was my error! Therefore, I obviously can't recommend it for decking sealant. Unfortunately, I can't comment about thicker decking paint or other wall paints such as emulsion or gloss. My recommendations are based on my mistake. There does not appear to be a problem with the product.Read full review

Paint runner Pro kit

Excellent. I used a quality water based paint that could be thinned down. I used two thirds paint with one third water on new plaster. Then slightly less water for the finished coat. No drips and easy to clean with warm water.Read full review

Saves on gym membership - great workout for arms and shoulders

Heavy and extremely hard work to use. It would probably work well for painting a floor but ceilings and floors simply doesn't work unless watering paint down by 30%.

The edge roller doesn't go all of the way to an edge - it leaves a 1-2mm gap which needs touching up with a brush.

The ONLY positive is that there are no paint splatters

Renovator Paint Runner Pro Roller

Didn’t like this at all, when loaded with paint it is heavy and cumbersome, it also leaks paint.

I purchased a Wagner paint roller to finish the job.

Easy Painting?

The roller is fantastic and does what it says on the tin. Obviously when the roller is full of paint it is quite heavy. Unfortunately the round unit and triangle shaped unit are useless.

Save your money and time

The product is of poor quality , also it takes an age to prime , very heavy when rolling full of paint . I got on far quicker going back to the traditional way.
