Interior / exterior paint sprayer

[red_zr24x4]

OK INGO, need some advice. Looking to buy a interior / exterior paint sprayer for around the house. Doesn't need to be any high dollar unit but I want it to work decent and fairly easy to clean.
Any recommendations?

Heck, unless you plan to use it alot, maybe consider renting one.. would be cheaper.. I've tried a few "less than industrial grade" and they have all sucked. Really may be worth paying $35 to rent a high end on for the day.. jmo

Thanks Tango
My problem is the house is so big and I have so many grandkids seems I'm always painting. I'd just like to have one when I need it.

This is good advice really. How many times does a guy need an airless sprayer? I bought a nice one in 08, had a large project to do. Paid for itself one 1 job.

My graco magnum x5 is worth every penny of the $300 I paid for it. If doing exteriors, get a 50 ft hose.

13 grand kids from 14 - 3 and none of them can seem to keep their hands off the walls, I think I'll get my money's worth out of a decent one

My airless sprayer puts out way too much paint to use indoors. It works fine for exterior work though. I would recommend renting as well. You may not like it.

I painted an interior of a home with an airless once. I can paint with brushes and rollers just as fast from start to final clean up. Guaranteed.

Of course this will not hold true if you don't care about how it looks when it's done and where the overspray ends up and whether your spraying equipment will work the next time you go to use it.

This. Airless indoor use is for an empty house with no floor coverings in place. What a mess these things make.

Thanks for all the suggestion
I've been googling all the brands and the reviews are all over the place. So I'm probably going to keep on rollering

Line them up. Put them in whites. Brush and roller them up. Have at it.

I use a Husky HVLP paint sprayer all the time at work. It works great, and I have used it indoors and out. Only bad thing is that it’s oil based only. I’ve been tempted to buy one for home, that’s set up for latex.

Use QUALITY paint. I used to think paint was paint until I followed my dad's suggestion and tried Benjamin Moore. Sure, it costs twice what Lowe's sells, but it is more durable. Benjamin Moore or Sherwin Williams (not the knock off crap from Lowe's) and you won't need to repaint as often.

I bought a Used Graco airless for $150 last year. This machine looks Nearly New the guy said he only used it twice and I would believe him. These are fully rebuildable andthe parts are available at all the Home Improvement centers. Check Craigslist in other sites like that for a used one.

I've had good results from behr.. not sure where they rank
