Just bought this sprayer, my first thoughts, I’m disappointed with the battery life, fully charged battery lasted no more than 15 mins.
I do need more time to experiment with it, having never used a sprayer before.
Apart from that so far so good.

Graco quickshot knocks the spots off this. Sorry but I just can't get on with the Wagner XVLP system. I felt ripped off when I invested in it and it's buried at the back of my garage, not seen the light of day for years.

How is the cleaning process of the QuickShot? the Wagner is very easy to clean, the Graco Airless Handheld takes ages to clean!

​@holgerwinkelmann6219 very easy to clean. Empty your pot and hose of paint, whack your filter, tip, cup and lid into a bucket of warm water and give them a rinse. Stick it back together and run some clean water through followed by pump armour if you're storing it for more than a few days. All in all, about 10 mins clean up time if you know what you're doing. 👍
