WASTE OF MONEY Do not buy
Behr is a cheap paint and I bought 3 gallons of it. I painted on my walls, a few days later I put painters tape on the walls around the baseboards, painted the baseboards and after about 5-10 minutes I removed the tape. This caused the behr paint to tear off the wall along the baseboards. I went in to complain and asked for a refund on all 3 gallons and they wouldnt do it. The best they could do is offer me more paint at no cost. Why would I want to get more cheap paint that does not hold.

Hi mehale253, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear about your coating peeling. I assure you this is not the experience we want for our customers. To get your project back on track, remove the loose coating, sand smooth the edges, clean, let dry, and touch up. When removing the painter's tape, it's best to do while the coating is still wet. It's also recommended to use low-adhesion painter's tape over newly painted surfaces that have not cured. It has less glue than typical blue painter's tape and will help prevent the new coating from lifting up. Customer satisfaction is important to us. Please reach out to us directly so we can further assist you; we are always happy to help! - Alex Behr

    Well the paint isn’t apricot, it’s color matched green… but otherwise, the employee did an amazing job matching my old paint. She went above and beyond to ensure a good match. The paint went on easily, dried with no odor, and you can’t even tell where I had to cover damage to the wall.

    Nice even coverage with less coats. I painted my island in my kitchen and it looks brand new. Also,I have allergies and I am very sensitive to paint this did not trigger my allergies at all. It has a very low odor.

    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.

          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.

            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
