I hate painting. Would a paint pod be easier and quicker or are they rubbish?

Thanks in advance.

i seriously hope you have not purchased one of those totally crap/useless abominations?!!! costly /time consuming/next to f***ing useless!!! no, change that totally f***ing useless! expensive replacement pods, trips to supplier of pods, no pressure at hight, cleaning !arggggggggg.....! in my experience/opinion

The paint pod speaks highly of you, MAYBE!

Omg absolutely rubbish.. I wasted money on one of these crap things.. It was heavy and hard work and dripped everywhere.. Stick to a roller much quicker and a lot cheaper

our B&Q were giving them away last year, Stacks of them. Free. Told me all I needed to know.

DH's friend thought his was brilliant when they renovated their whole house, but he said it's only worth it if you are painting all one colour, they are very expensive for doing lot's of colours.

I love painting though, I get in the 'zone'.

oops that should have been giving them away !

Ooh thanks all. I'll avoid them like the plague then.

Back to the rollers [sigh]

Get yourself a nice long extension pole if you've not already got one. The ones that screw into the roller - so so much quicker than getting up and down ladders and chairs.
