NSG0060 Cordless paint sprayer

I Purchased this for a huge project. A friend used solid stain to cover the board fence for a large pasture. Much of it was hand painted with a brush and roller, but there were sections every four or 5 feet that could only be sprayed because no brush or roller could reach in between the boards where the horizontal boards met the vertical posts. This machine flat out did the job wonderfully! It never jammed. It was easy to use and put out a beautiful smooth even coat of the Cabot solid stain. I could not be happier with this purchase. My friend meticulously cleaned the machine by spraying a recommended cleaning solution mixed with water through it at the end of every single usage. We got the cleaning solution at our local Lowe’s store because they sold the type of paint sprayer that could be plugged in and recommended this oil-based cleaner. This machine is fabulous. I strongly recommend that you go ahead and buy the extra, over-sized spare battery if you are doing a big job, so you can use one while re-charging the other, just have both charged when you start as re- charging takes awhile. This is a fabulous product, and it was a very good reasonable price.

I love it good product

I made a huge mistake on my part by ordering this on Prime Day in July and not opening and using it until December. The outside casing on the gun was cracked right out of the box. I do not think that particular piece had anything to do with the actual operation of the sprayer however. After assembling, and thinning my paint to proper viscosity, the sprayer would not spray paint, it would only blow air. After about an hour of troubleshooting, I realized the pre-installed check valve assembly was defective. I guess that's why it came with three of them. So after replacing it I finally got paint spraying from the gun. I practiced spraying on a scrap piece of wood for a bit and then started spraying my door. The sprayer did not spray evenly and would fade out and then have a sudden burst of high flow paint periodically. This resulted in major drips on the door. I tried every adjustment to flow and nozzle and the results were horrible. I ended up having to sand and hand brush and roll the door. Since the return window was up I sent the sprayer to it's new home at the landfill. In trying to save $20 on Prime Day I actually ended up losing $40. Lesson learned.

I am new to painting, definitely an amateur at best. That said I have a very large paint job ahead of me. But hopefully just one paint job. I bought the unit because I would like to use it for painting but for the alternative usages such as disinfectant cleaner and what not.Having never bought anything like this before this is my take on the first time I have attempted to use the device. My idea was simple: use water and replace a paint so therefore I can make a mess and not have to worry about things. I think that this was a great idea and I recommend that others do that as well.The hopper needs to be full in order for the unit to properly prime the system. So filling The hopper only halfway will not work. Perhaps the thickness of the paint would allow for partial filling of the hopper and having the unit work?People before me have reported that the unit leaks. There are two takes on this: If you know what you're doing and you do it right you should not be tilting the unit up and down. Should be held horizontally. If held horizontally it will work without leaking. That being said I am very much new to this and I guarantee you I'm going to tilt the sucker. That's when it leaks. And it leaks between the hopper and the device.There are two ways to fix this: screw the sucker on very tight. Very tight. May not be a perfect solution some people may not be able to screw it on tight enough or afterwards may not be able to unscrew it. The alternative would be plumbers tape the kind that goes around pipes to prevent them from leaking. This worked for me. I don't know how long that will last for that might be something that might have to be replied maybe every five or six hopper changes.Manufacturer: maybe make the third base a little bit larger a few more turns of the hopper would help prevent this problem in the future.I don't understand how one can say that the system is airless though? It works by air. I was thinking that it had a water pump of some type and pushed the fluid through whatever to achieve the painting effect. No, it works by suction and by the fan blowing. With a fan blowing it creates noise. So if you're looking for a quiet system this perhaps is not a solution for you. But it's not overly loud as well. It's like a hair dryer. Like a very strong hair dryer. That said I was able to dampen some of the noise by removing the back black guard that holds the filter on. Kept the filter on by using tape but the removal of the guard helps the air flow and thus makes the a little bit quieter.I'll do another review after my big paint job to see how the unit held up.

It is an average product, not a bad one. I would only recommend for outdoor stain on deck or fence. You cant do paint jobs on flat surfaces as it uses too much product and you will have drops and streaks all over but its a nice tool for staining jobs on wood. Good thing is I did a job in 20 minutes that would take me over 90 minutes but the bad part is the battery runs in 20 minutes and you have to charge it for 2 hours before you can use it again unless if you have a spare battery. Pls tape up the bolts, handles etc and put some paper or cloth on walls as it sprays all over and you will be leaving materials on walls or surrounding materials. Overall not a bad one, took care of my fencing job but I cant use it for doors etc.
