MIXED RESULTS
Paint offers mixed results in my experience. While the color turned out darker than expected compared to the online preview, the overall quality is commendable. The flat/matte version easily attracts dirt, necessitating frequent cleaning. However, once applied, the paint delivers a durable finish with impressive coverage. Despite its drawbacks, it remains a solid choice for those willing to overlook minor inconveniences for a polished result.

      Starless night is just navy
      Ordered starless night, the spot on the can even looks more of a dark slate blue but the color is just navy in any light

        This paint is beautiful, easy to apply, and accidental spills/splashes are to wipe clean.

        Buyer Beware! Horrible. This paint broke me
        I consider myself a good painter. Most clients are repeat customers. was recently hired to paint a 1012 sq ft apartment with exposed brick throughout, so less to paint. This paint has been a nightmare. 15 gallons for just the walls. The client informed me that the paint job looks "unfinished" and I agree. You can still see the roller marks. I have one wall where I'm up to 8 coats - unacceptable. This experience has broken me financially, physically and mentally. Not worth the headache.

        Hi DavidNYC, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear you experienced roller marks and didn't get the coverage you expected. The Premium Plus Paint typically covers in two coats, while porous surfaces may require additional coats. To fix this, we recommend applying another coat in columns. Reload your roller after each column for the best coverage. Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your feedback. Please reach out to us directly if you need further assistance. Our customer care team is happy to help you! - Randy Behr

          Horrible
          Three coats of white on top of old white are not covering. Horrible. Experienced painter. Stirred. Sanded where needed. Consider reflections, still horrible. Service at Home Depot ok but was NOT asked about quality choice.

            Far darker than expected
            I tried all the Home Depot tools to match a current color to find an appropriate paint. This paint turned out to be super dark by comparison.

              I was disappointed because it did not match the color of my living room. Now I have to have a make over of the whole living room. It will cost me more dollars to do it ???

              Hi Billy, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear your color didn't turn out as expected. Colors are typically influenced by the lighting and surroundings of a project, and it's always best to use the same paint for touch-ups to help with uniformity. To fix the issue, I recommend painting the surface corner to corner to help it blend in with any surrounding areas of the same color.

              Amazing color
              The color is very beautiful, pretty dark in person or when painted on wall. Maybe just on mines . I recommend getting it glossed . Mines isn’t but I should’ve . Overall it’s beautiful

                    Covers Red Walls
                    I was able to use one coat to cover some dark red walls. Will go in with a second coat to touch up dark spots. Refer to photo attached for side by side comparison

                      Cupboards
                      I was hesitant but took chance using it on painted cupboards. Truly surprised it worked great.

                        Best Coverage
                        This is the first time we bought Behr Marquee interior paint and it was definitely one coverage. I had primed the walls prior to coloring the wall and this is after letting it dry after 48 hours.

                          We had to use 2 coats to cover a seagreen looking color. We’re satisfied with the result.
