What's in the Box
Paint stick with 3/8-inch roller cover, splatter shield, and a can cover with fill tube.
Amazon.com Product Description:
There isn't a single one among us who hasn't paused while painting with a roller, looked at the spills accumulating around the paint tray, and thought, "There must be a better way." Fortunately, HomeRight put its thinking caps to good use and developed the PaintStick. Borrowing from the time-tested technology of the fountain pen, the PaintStick takes paint directly from the paint can and feeds it to the roller, eliminating the need for spill-happy trays. The PaintStick holds approximately 18 ounces of paint, and one fill will cover an 8-by-8-foot area (each gallon of paint contributes about seven fills of the PaintStick). Use the included Spatter Shield to keep paint from splattering over you and the floor. The PaintStick--which weighs only 2-1/4 pounds when full--even extends from floor to ceiling without a ladder, making it efficient and easy to use. This five-piece kit includes a PaintStick with 3/8-inch roller cover, the Spatter Shield, and a can cover with fill tube.

Content: I bought a paint stick and used it for years. I had to buy a new one after original was crushed. I used the twice (cleaning it after each use) and when I went to use it the third time, nothing! There was no suction at all. I pulled it apart, cleaned it again, greased it up and still nothing.

I cannot find the receipt so I cannot return it.

I will NEVER buy a Wagner paint stick again.

Summary: What a piece of JUNK!

Content: This product does all it claims to do. It was a breeze to use and saved a lot of time and effort with my paint project. When you follow the instructions, your task of painting really becomes enjoyable. After painting one room, I decided to do another room because it was so quick and easy.
Summary: The next best thing to not painting at all

Content: We got one of these when painting our upstairs.... This thing is good if you have a lot of area to cover, and a lot of area to work. My wife found it unwieldy, but I loved it. I put 2 gallons of paint on the wall in about and hour. I only had to return to the can maybe a dozen times to refill. No bending over the pan BS.... huge timesaver in that regard... I don't know why people bitch about the cleaning, I found it pretty easy.... If you have a 12x12 room or something, I'd just go w/ a traditional roller.... but if you have to do a bunch of painting, this thing really does the job.
Summary: Really works pretty decently.

Content: I bought this paintstick to paint 2 rooms, with celings. I got one coat on each ceiling & it worked ok but I wouldn't say that it's better than traditional rollers or that it saves you time or energy. If anything, its heavier and makes you work harder and takes just as much time. Furthermore, cleaning this thing not only takes a phD but it also takes an hour plus AND was so tedious I ended up throwing it away...I just didnt see the value.

The instruction booklet is 2 pages on setup and use and 6 pages on cleaning. No thanks.
Summary: Disappointed...Paintstick provides no true "advantage"
