I've got the whole of a 3-bed house to paint imminently - after getting tired of using a roller in about 15 minutes, now looking at possibly using a sprayer.

Any recommendations/go-to ones? I know the Wagner airless ones look very good, but are a bit pricey (though i'll look to buy second hand and then re-sell to be honest, so if they're miles better I can be convinced).

Spraying isn't as painless as it sounds. You'll need to spend four or five times as long prepping the place vs rolling.

A lot of painting jobs can be made infinitely better by using better paint / equipment.

Definitely - for what it's worth the house is essentially empty at the mo, more than happy to spend time masking as what i've done of that to date (repainting all the external window frames and sills) is far less physically exhausting than using the roller (100% with poor technique!)
