I used a Wagner to paint my cabinets and it worked good it just threw a lot of paint and had to watch for and touch up any paint runs with a brush. I may have not it dialed in correctly, but it did make short work of the job. I got my Wagner at Wally world for a little over a Franklin. Make sure you clean every little piece or it won't work right.

Do you have an air compressor? I was pretty happy with the $15 HVLP
paint gun that I picked up from harbor freight for use on an air compressor. Works as well as the $60 from home depot.

I own the Graco TrueCoat from Lowes. I bought it to help with some minor painting projects around the house. The only gripes I have are that the paint bucket is kind of small and it spews paint at a ridiculous rate. If you used this to paint a room and had to do more than 2 coats of any color, you'd be doing something wrong.

I have this one, like the simplicity of a self contained unit.
