Campbell Hausfeld EZ5000 House Painter

Customer Reviews & Comments
I looked for 3 months for an inexpensive airless to paint the inside and outside of my 2000 sq. ft. house - was unsure about the Wagner products after seeing all the bad reviews on Amazon. Took a flyer on this unit after seeing a review on Ebay and I have to say that I am impressed so far. After painting 3 rooms in my house with a roller, I had estimated 5 hours for the living room - this little beauty got the job done in about 1.5 hours and I am very impressed with the quality. It took a few minutes to figure out that we had to prime the pump manually with the latex we were using, but once it primed, this unit worked very well on both walls and 10 foot ceilings. Cleanup was very easy (hope we got all the paint out of it!!!), and took only 15 minutes. This was my first experience with an airless, and I am completely sold on this unit for the novice, occasional painter. On the downside, we had some paint dust in the house when we were done, but not as bad as I expected, and certainly not as bad as it could have been considering it is summertime in Phoenix and we had the doors closed. No drips on the carpet, no paint on my hands; it was a very clean operation.
