“
We found this tool to be an added value for the home owner. After a job, gift it to the customer. Less work them. For a contractor, I'm not to sure if i would buy them for company. As we use alot of 18in roller covers. We wrap all of our rollers in plastic. Im not sure how this tool would save me money or time in the long run. Thats why i had to give it 3 stars.”

This product is nice for a DIY painter. Container stays sealed and the nap stays wet. It can be a bit messy inserting a wet cover in the tube. I wouldn't reccomend storing anything above a 3/4" nap roller due to the size of the tube. Overall it's decent for the weekend warriors.”

Great tool to have on the job site, espaesially when returning the next day to apply the second coat, I think it would be cheaper for the everyday painter to just use plastic.”

It kept the roller useable for about 2 weeks after i forgot about it. I was pleasantly suprised! Rolling in plastic still my go to but it may have uses for a handyman or apartment painter who only use the same colors repeatedly.”

It certainly works as advertised, but for me. a plastic shopping bag is always handy and free.”

“
The product didn't provide much value to me, as I always just use scrap plastic film to wrap up the roller if I'm going to be using it again within a couple of days. Anything longer than that, and I just toss the cover, as I only pay $2 for my 9" covers, and cannot ever justify cleaning them or buying a product only capable of storing a 9" cover. The product was a little too tight for heavier-nap rollers also. I recognize that there is a bigger need for this product in the DIY market, however I believe that "The Paint Brush Cover" company already has a similar product in stores.”

“
This is a product that has been tried a few times. Not sure the contractor usage is the market. This is certainly something the DIY painter should look at. Maybe the room is not done this weekend and will be next weekend. It certainly keeps the roller wet as advertised but for the pro they will just grab plastic and use that roller again tomorrow.”
