Great paint and coverage
We paired Harmonious with Mesa Taupe and love that combo on several main walls with a couple of accent walls. Used 250 sq feet for the coverage calc. Believe we could have gone to 275 for less left over paint. We applied 2 coats for the desired color, some might have lo at one for the lighter color. We only used a dry swifter to wipe down loose dirt, webs, etc.

      Bright white which is what I was looking for. Excellent result with professional application. I was unsure about using eggshell on the ceiling but I really like the result. The room has only one window and the ceiling reflects a lot of light now.

      Nice coverage and no odor. First time using "eggshell" and I really like the sheen... not too shiny but not flat (which shows every imperfection).

      BEST PAINT EVER! We moved to NV from another state and got a great deal on the house...our real estate agent said the house was immaculate EXCEPT for its "unique color scheme" Oh...my...gosh. The ENTIRE kitchen was painted RED...most of the rest of the house is brown (yes, brown)...with the exception of a yellow bedroom and a green bedroom. I tried another paint, after going over one of the brown living room walls FOUR times, we found this paint (thank You, LORD!) it covers everything!...it only takes ONE coat! It even covered the red! Save yourself some work; buy this!! Worth every penny in time and wear-and-tear on your shoulder.

      This paint is easy to apply and seems to be a quality paint. The only down side is I had to apply 2 coats for complete cover up of a white background. I thought paint and primer in one would take one coat. I have attached a picture of our Master Bedroom finished in Behr Premium Plus Natural Almond walls with Behr Premium Plus Gloss white on all Trim work.

      Several years ago, a friend introduced me to Behr paint and I'm so glad she did. It's the best paint I've ever used. It goes on smoothly and with paint and primer in one, coverage is great. I covered dark golden walls with a light griege in just two coats. I always wait until Home Depot runs their paint sale then with the $10 rebate, I get this wonderful paint for under $20 a gallon. I also can't say enough for the paint department at Home Depot. They do a wonderful job color matching other brands. If you have to paint, do yourself a favor and buy this product. It may not make the job fun, but it's definitely more enjoyable.

        We have used Behr paint for many years and liked the results, but I have to say we were really disappointed by the latest iteration of this paint. It took 5 (FIVE!!) coats to fully cover the previous paint on a wall. We used an entire gallon on one 12x9 wall. It was insane. I cannot recommend using this paint unless you have unlimited time on your hands and like doing the same job over and over.... Look elsewhere.

        Response from BehrAug 22, 2019
        Hi BuckeyeMike,

        I'm incredibly sorry to hear about this experience. While 2-3 coats are to be expected with Premium Plus Paint, five is certainly excessive and very abnormal. I'd love to gather more information about your project and find the best way to help. Please contact Behr directly for further assistance with this matter.

        Kindest regards,

        Doris Behr

        My painter told me to buy this paint, since I had dark walls to cover. He didn't need to use that many gallons. And it came out beautiful. Other quotes were telling me to buy 5 gallon contractors paint, but this worked best for less.

        I love the choices in colors and the easy ability to come back for more paint. It goes on well, dries fast and is easy to clean up with soap and water. We use Behr paint in several of rental properties as well as our own home!

        Wonderful paint, covered like they said it would, even though we used a light color, Almond Kiss. Covered marks that would not wash or sand off. Low odor is absolutely correct, which was great for our powder room, not good ventilation. Cleans easily; already had to test that with my mud pie making son. We love this paint!

        I recently used Behr Premium Plus in eggshell finish to paint a red brick fireplace. I primed the fireplace first to seal the brick. It went on easy and I was able to get really good coverage with just one coat. I sprayed the faces of the brick and brushed the mortar joints and it came out awesome. I will buy this paint again.

          Best paint on the planet! I don't want to use anything else. I had some very bad tenants, in many ways. Amongst other things, I discovered they had painted one of the bedrooms glossy pink - see the before photo in pink below, sloppily, and over a pretty neutral during the previous year's whole house renovation. I did 1 coat of Behr "Porcelain Skin", using the eggshell sheen. I did not do the first coat as thoroughly as I could have, because I knew full well that I'd have to come back to put on another coat to hide the glossy, very pink paint. But the next day, I came back and it looked amazing with just the one coat! Wow! No second coat necessary! I have used Behr Premium Plus for years and am always pleased with the results. When I have made the mistake of going with some cheaper paint, I end up spending more in cost and in time b/c it requires more than 1 coat to look good. I vow to never go with anything but my Behr. Love this paint. Best of the best. And it adheres better even when I don't prep as well as I should. Great hide-ability. And the cleanup is easy with soap and water. Nothing but Behr for me. I also only use their deck stain as it lasts and lasts. When it does need refreshing, a simple top coat makes it fresh and perfect again. It is totally worth the little extra initial cost. LOVE LOVE LOVE Behr. Thank you Behr for making all my painted things look great with long-lasting durability.
