Painting Revolution..?

Advantages: It is quick.
Disadvantages: It is messy. Limited paint colours available.

...thoughtful husband suggested that a Dulux PaintPod roller system would make lighter of these tasks for me. The TV advertisements certainly made it seem this way and so we set off intent on making our purchase.

We bought our system in Homebase for £69.99, although I think it is possible to get them a little bit cheaper elsewhere. The paint that needs to be used with the pod comes in a specially shaped plastic container. I understand ...
...choose from, but a far smaller number were stocked in my local branch of Homebase. The pods cost £29.99 for 5 litres, which is in line with a normal pot of paint, but unfortunately it is not possible to buy smaller packs of paint and 5 litres really is quite a lot.

In any case, we could only find paint packs in the colours we wanted for the dining room and living room, however as these were fairly big spaces we decided that it would ... more

Dulux Paint Pod performance

Advantages: No dustsheets needed,
Disadvantages: Paint expensive, poor cleaning, fiddley

Well I got round to painting my front room. I saw this advertised on the TV and so thought I'd look on youtube to see what people are saying about it. It looked quite promising after seeing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqJ5T1lHq18 so off to B&Q to pick one up. i was suprised to see there was only about 20 colours on sale. I picked the bottle of paint and a 'Pod' and paid at the till. When I got home i took it out the box and read the instruction ...
...decorating and switched it on. Shortly after starting I noticed the transparent rubber cover over the paint trigger started to come out of its housing. this gave me a couple of problems, first, the pump wouldn't activate when I pressed the button. Secondly when I did get the pump working it wouldn't stop as the rubber cover kept the button pressed. During painting I had the change between the spout and the roller. The first couple of times had to ...

Dulux Paint Pod roller system

Advantages: A lot less climbing up and down steps to fill roller
Disadvantages: Still got to do a bit of cleaning by hand on roller holder

...side as it is only Dulux paint and nothing special about it. Putting the unit together was quite easy. I decided to go with the instructions on this one because of the different fittings on it. Very little packaging so that was a relief. The parts went together easily enough, when you put the paint pod in you can put it in the wrong way round but when the pipe is placed into the hole in the unit that does not matter, it still works ok. Ready for ...
...paint run through and when it gets to the roller you need to keep it pressed so the roller can file with paint, dont forget to keep rolling though so it spreads evenly on the roller. Now I found pressing on and off every 5 seconds or so kept me a nice stream of paint running. As I was painting a raised pattern on the wall I needed that bit more paint on the roller and found it did get into the pattern ok. Unclicking the roller to put the little nozle ...

My new bbf .........well worth £35!

Advantages: Paints perfectly. Cleans its self amazingly. Great for landladies/lords who cant afford painters
Disadvantages: Can be heavy, noisy roller can spit fluff Paint range is still quite limited and expensive.

Painted Living room, Hallway, Bathroom, Stairway walls and landing in one day!! Brought the paint pod while on offer £35 for the pod and £40 for two paints when brought at the same time. I got 1 color for my living room and 1 for my other rooms Instructions are easy granted I just skimmed over the picture diagrams, set up takes about 15 mins. I painted the first wall in my living room which is a decent size in 2 mins but realised the trick to ...
...do lots of coats is to roll slowly like the man in the ad and you will only need to do 1 or 2 coats as the paint is spread more thickly and gives a better finish. The edging brush is amazing and I will buy another one of these just for the fact you dont need to cover your skirting boards light switches and sockets with masking tape because it is so precise. Apart from the triangle shape the brush has been thinned out at the tip so paint will not ...

Plug it in and you're off!

Advantages: Quick, easy, not too pricey, efficient
Disadvantages: Bit noisy, paint is on the expensive side

...with a pretty good quality Dulux paintbrush (in a triangle shape, just for good measure, to get into the annoying corners). '''Cons''' So, at least from my experience, it's effective doing it's job: painting. There are a few smaller issues with it. It's fairly noisy, about as loud as a blender (up close) or vacuum machine, so it isn't that bad, parituclarly considering it's not likely to be on for too long. While the price of the Pod itself isn't ...

Mrs T Lester

Advantages: quick clean efficiant
Disadvantages: limited colour range an limited size range

Fantastic machine I uesed it at the weekend to decorate my lounge and it was great no more up and down to the paint tray it was clean i didnt put anything down and there was no mess. I will make sure I get a couple of sleeves not because the one i had didnt come clean it is good as new but it's getting it dry i was using 3 colours which meant changing cleaning the roller which was no problem it just took some getting dry. paint cover is great i thought ...
...down side it would be nice if you had the option of a smaller size paint pod 5lt goes a very long way and is quite expensive if you dont use much of one colour and hopefully they will increase the colour range. on the whole great buy and mine only cost £34.00 from B&Q but even if I had paid full price I would have been very pleased. ...
