"I purchased this painter to spray oil based paint on wicker furniture and expected to have it for years and use it for many types of jobs. NO SUCH LUCK. Setup was a pain out of the box. Okay, past that, let's paint....feeder tube stuck (directions say this is common and a tool is provided to fix it). More setup, clearing, priming, ready to spray, no guide for what pressure to use with material being sprayed. Trial and error, another 20 minutes and finally a usable spray. Few minutes into the spray job and the valve or something goes haywire and paint backs up in the machine under the hopper and spills out the sides going everywhere. AGAIN, OIL based paint. Major mess, more cleaning and I want to throw this thing over a cliff. Instead regain composure and clean the machine to return it. This time the mineral spirits back up under the hopper and spill everywhere. I ignore the urge to kick the machine and instead throw it in the box to return. Thank goodness for a good return policy. I love Northern Tool...HATE Wagner. It is telling that the old paint crew model gets returned so often that the refurbished version is a permanent fixture in the Northern Tool catalog. Good Luck.....DO NOT BUY THIS!"
