Accubrush MX Paint Edger 11 Piece Jumbo kit

I thought this was a gimmick thing and after the first time I'd go, yeah, they tried and I tried it and so a little money down the drain...It actually works very well. I still taped well and i still will because mistakes happen, but this makes very clean lines even on our derpy bumpy not straight walls. My ceiling is untouched and clean lines!!I'm very impressed, though it has a few things they need to correct. For example, the clip to hold the brush on need to be moved 90 degrees to avoid occaisonally getting paint on it having it drip. somehow make it so you can remove the edger section so you can just roll a bit without it in the way.There will be some minor expense in replacing the little brushes, but i think well worth the benefit of this tool.Also, hope they can simply and lighten it a bit.Be aware you should hand paint into corners before you start as it can get everywhere, but again absolutely worth it once you start rolling an paint a clean line it is great.another tip, rolls in the direction of the wheels to keep them a bit cleaner and avoid them messing up paint. I roll a bit then lift the wheels a bit and go back over - works great.So, a little learning as you get going, but actually a very very handy tool and worth the high price tag, but hopefully they'll lower that.

I'm not impressed with this thing at all. Don't get me wrong, the idea is very good, but the roller / brush combo works in only one direction. That is, if you're painting a vertical surface, this paint edger can be used only up to the last maybe 4-5" from the edge of the ceiling. From there, you would have to free-hand it, (usually having taped the edge to get the fine edgeline) which will negate ever needing this tool. Imagine using this tool to paint the top of the wall where the ceiling meets that wall. Where the wall meet the 90-degree angles (the adjacent left and right walls), this roller can't fit the beginning first few inches and the last few inches. Sure, it can paint the span of length between those adjacent walls very well, however it doesn't paint the entire length, which is what I expect it to do. The same problem will be had when edging vertically; the fist few inches at the bottom of the wall (as the baseboard or floor) and the last few inches at the top (where the ceiling meets) can't accommodate this tool.This problem is due to an inherent design flaw. Because the edger brush is located on only one side of the roller; you can't flip over the tool to work in the opposite direction because the brush will now be on the bottom. Yes, even when working in one direction, the ends (beginning and end) of that surface will be left 'un-edged'. Also, the edger brush is located BEHIND the roller, so you couldn't edge close enough to the end of the wall / ceiling or wall / floor anyway. I would think the whoever invented this tool (as well as the R & D folks) would have adjusted for this real problem by putting the brush on both sides of the roller as well as in front of the roller (and possibly a tab wider).I'm sorry to report that this tool is a very flawed gimmick that simply doesn't perform as well as intentioned. Again, it's a pretty good idea, but the final design is still flawed. Maybe having the edger brushes on BOTH SIDES of the roller and positioning them IN FRONT of the roller would help immensely. Also, no roller would roll up to the edge, so maybe having a flat sponge (instead of a roller) that's level with the brushes would help get the edging (cutting in) job done as advertised. I'm returning this unused product for a refund. So, I'm back to taping and free-handing my edging / cut-ins.

Bought a house. All colors on the walls were intended for a dungeon or a fun house. Just awful.Edging and painting isn’t easy. It’s always a challenge. This product, while not perfect, saved lots of time. And you can’t put a price on time.Can you get into all corners? No. Does it sometimes need to be cleaned during use real quick because of how gravity and physics work with a liquid while painting horizontally and vertically? Yes. Does the little wheel leave a streak as you work back and forth? Yes. Can you quickly and easily move the wall guard and go over it with the roller? Also yes. Does it save time and frustration? Definitely yes. Can you expect some areas to get a little messy and need to be redone? It’s paint….yes.Overall a great product. Saved lots of time. Read the instructions. Experiment a little. Within 15 minutes (and I’m a novice painter) you’ll be whizzing along edges and wishing you had this for the last time you painted.
