Paint Roller
The primary roller performed far better than expected. We used it 2 times so far, rinsing it properly from both inner and outer side each time will be good. The extender handle is very useful.
Roller
This Roller Paint Runner makes it easy to build a wall for the job. It produces a transparent texture if we roll it across the wall. But the hard part is that it gets heavy when we dip it in paint, and we lose over-balance.
Hard Work And Messy
Do not buy this product, the handle fell of the round edger and did not work, the roller was heavy when filled and was so messy, also when we started using it we realised we would have to do at least 3 coats of pain so half way through we reverted back to paintbrush and roller and tray and did the job in one coat. A total waste of money.

What A Load Of Old Rubbish
As a single woman I purchase the Paint runner pro to help me with my decorating.
What a pain this worked out to be.
It's messy to load, is heavy when the Paint is in it. It's hardly covering my ceiling. What a waste of time.
I had to throw the edge roller away because it fell off the handle more than it stayed on.
Use a paint brush or a good old fashioned roller.
It is the last time I get sucked into buying something that's to good to be true.
Very dissapointing. I never really write a review but this is so bad I believed it deserved one.....
Shocking !!!!!!!I
I have also purchased this what a load of rubbish someone is making millions from this and i cant even get through to them to return it 32.99 pounds complete waste on money do not buy this

Less Messy Than The Standard Rollers
As most people have stated it may take time for the paint to come through. You MUST THIN THE PAINT with water. After that it does work, but the coats are very thin and you might have to go over it 2 to 3 times.
The good thing is there can be less to no mess at all as the roller does not spray paint everywhere apart from the wall. It is a bit heavier than a standard roller but you can cover a larger area in one go than a standard roller where you have to dip the conventional roller in the paint tray.
To sum up
More area covered in less time than a traditional roller
Heavier
May require 2 to 3 coats to properly paint the walls
No mess and should not need dust sheets everywhere.
It would be better if they could find a material that could absorb the paint and allow the painting of the wall in 1 r 2 coats

Dont Waste Your Money
This is the worst product I have ever bought. Followed the instructions to the letter. Does not work. Paint does not come out of roller. Tried rolling on newspaper as suggested also the wall. Took an hour to lightly cover about 2 square feet. Went to the pound shop and bought a roller and did the job in no time at all. The advert on television should be banned. Complete waste of money.
Had the same experience exactly... :(

Paint Runner Roller
This is the worst bit of kit I've ever bought. Cumbersome to use,heavy to operate makes the job hard work. Paint finish uneven and stripey.Now I understand why the professionals don't use it . People who advertise it ought to be banned from TV advertising. Feel like I've been mugged. It's a pity I did not have time to use it before the return period expired. I would have definitely asked for my money back

Paint Leaked Out
Spent the afternoon cleaning up all the lost paint that leaked out of the end when filling. Wall still needs painting.

Saw The Tv Advert Brought It
20 minutes to paint a room
Wow can this be true, now admittedly my brain said no way.
But logic got thrown out the window, you never know new things are getting invented all the time.
So my my 4 rooms went from 80 minutes to four full days.
And after the second coat i realised that the streaks were not going to go away.
So out with the old faithful hand roller.
It seemed to do an ok job of the ceilings, but holding it up was a workout.
The next trick is getting my refund.
they offered me a 25% discount if I keep it.
But it is really not what it is cracked up to be.
The inconsistency of the paint is really the main issue.
The end result is no good unless you fix it with the old roller type.

Not Worth Trying
Purchased an unfortuntly tried it just outside the 30 days. Tried it last weekend and when full was too heavy for me to use after about 10 mins so my husband too over. Seemed quick but used lots of paint and left a very streaky 1st coat. After the 2nd coat it was still very streaky so had to apply a 3rd coat with a normal roller. wont be using it again and certainly would not recommend it.
I have written to the company but as all things no reply.
Q&A
how different is the new 2020 version from the previous one?
Do you have any tips on how to pour paint from a large paint can into the small easy pour jug without making a huge mess? I am doing the painting on my own and don't have anyone to help lift the paint can.
place the jug into your sink in case of any spillages
