The best airless paint sprayers, compared.
Top pick: Wagner Power Painter 90 Extra Skid Best value: NEU MASTER RP8622 780 W – About £119.99, with 4.2 from 872 ratings, if you accept a pressure cell of 3000 kilopascal. Updated October 2026.
A corded airless paint sprayer pumps coating through a hose and a tip, so the paint atomises without a compressor. You would use one for walls, ceilings, fences, sheds or masonry when a roller is slow and a cup-fed gun cannot move unthinned emulsion. Judge the machine by flow, the pressure family beside the spec cell, the hose, the tip in the box and the plug. A higher figure in the title is not the decision. Two extracts repeat the M1 review text, and two pressure cells contradict the title. The [airless paint sprayer buying guide](/hub/painting-supplies/airless-paint-sprayer/sub/airless-paint-sprayer-buying-guide) sets flow, tip, hose and plug beside the ranked rows. A battery gun is a different comparison, the [cordless paint spray gun](/hub/painting-supplies/cordless-paint-spray-gun). Lower-pressure airless is the Control 250 M: 110 bar, a 9 m hose, and claim of up to 55 percent less overspray.

Question 1 of 2
What is the job?
The Wagner Power Painter 90 Extra Skid is £940.62, the highest price in this set. The pressure cell says 200 bar. The box includes a 15 m DN6 hose, an HEA 517 tip, a pressure gauge and piston oil, with direct suction from the original container. The bullet claims up to 55% less overspray. Three UK texts sit under a star line of 5.0 from 9. They mention two coats of a house in hours, easy cleaning, and no ceiling extension in the box. Recommended uses says Indoor. The materials list is emulsion and latex for indoor use, plus stains, primers and acrylics. Varnish is asked and not named.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A large indoor emulsion job if the budget reaches £940 and you can add a ceiling extension.
Less suitable: A first sprayer, or anyone who needs more than three written UK texts before paying this price.
Specifications
Common questions
Can the listing confirm it sprays varnish?
The question is unanswered. The materials list names emulsion, latex, oils, glazes, stains, primers, fillers and acrylics. It does not say varnish.
What is in the box?
The unit, a 15 m DN6 hose, a Vector Pro gun with a TradeTip3 holder, an HEA 517 nozzle, an HEA pressure gauge and piston oil.
Does the box include a ceiling extension?
The included list does not name one. One of the three UK reviews says you need a 45 cm or longer extension for ceilings.
The Wagner Control Pro 250 M is £475, part 2371054, with 110 bar in the title and in the pressure cell, a 9 m hose and tips 311 and 517. The title says it covers 15 m² in 2 minutes. The bullet claims up to 55 percent less overspray. That is Wagner's claim on the listing, not a test in this set. The extract does not describe the plug or the wattage. It has the highest star line here with a large count, 4.3 from 415. UK texts praise fences and empty rooms, and they also describe a steep setup, a stiff hose, heavy masking, and pumps that failed or leaked. It is the top pick in this set on that matching 110 bar figure and that star line.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Empty rooms, ceilings and fences when you will mask and learn the prime sequence.
Less suitable: A furnished room, or a buyer who expects contractor pressure from 110 bar.
Specifications
Common questions
Which materials does the bullet name?
Emulsion and latex, enamels, vinyl, matt, silk, gloss, varnishes, acrylics, wood preservatives, stains, primers, undercoats, oils and more. Not for flammable materials. Masonry paint is asked and not named.
Which tips are in the box?
The included-components line lists tip 311 and tip 517, plus a filter set and a 9 m hose.
Does the listing say it is easy to clean?
The question is unanswered. UK reviews call cleaning a faff and also describe about 20 minutes once a method is learned.
The NEU MASTER RP8622 is the lowest price in this set, £119.99 on amazon.co.uk, with 4.2 from 872 ratings. The title says up to 3000 PSI and thinning-free spraying. The maximum-pressure cell says 3000 kilopascal, which is not the same figure. The hose cell says 7.62 m and the included list says a 25 ft hose. UK texts praise a fence finish after practice and also report units that would not prime or were refused a refund. It is the best value here on price and review count if you can live with that pressure conflict.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A first fence or spare-room job if you accept the pressure-cell conflict and a large, mixed review count.
Less suitable: Anyone who needs a pressure cell that matches the title, or a stated flow in litres per minute.
Specifications
Common questions
Does the listing say this sprayer can be used on fences?
The question on the page is unanswered. The bullets do name fences, along with walls, ceilings, doors and furniture.
How many spray tips are in the included list?
The title says spray tips. The included-components line names one aluminium alloy tip. No orifice size is printed.
Do the title and the pressure cell agree?
No. The title says up to 3,000 PSI. The maximum-pressure cell says 3000 kilopascal.
The InoKraft MaXpray M1 is £219.99. The bullet says up to 0.31 GPM, 1.17 L/min, at 3000 PSI, for projects up to about 38 litres. The pressure cell says 3300 psi. The hose bullet says 7.6 m and the hose cell says 25 feet. UK texts in this file are the ones later copied onto the M3 and NEO extracts. They praise unthinned masonry and fences, and they also describe a rigid hose and a unit that stopped after about 15 minutes. The listing says that stop can be overheat protection and a restart after about three minutes.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Masonry, pebbledash and long fences when you want the review text that actually names this model.
Less suitable: A small furnished room, where the same texts call the hose cumbersome.
Specifications
Common questions
Does the listing say it can spray interior walls?
The question is on the page. The bullet names interior furniture and walls, and exterior decks, siding, fences, garages and sheds.
What does the overheat note say?
The bullet says the unit may stop during long use, that this is not a defect, and that you turn it off, wait about three minutes, and restart.
Are these the reviews copied onto the M3 and NEO?
Yes. This extract holds the 50 texts. The M3 and NEO files repeat the same block, including lines that name the M1.
The MaXpray M3 is a cart at £289.99. The title says 0.33 GPM and 3300 PSI. The highlight says 227 bar, 1.25 L/min and up to 9 m²/min. The bullets say two 7.6 m hoses, 15.2 m in the box, and support for up to 30 m. The hose cell says 1.8 m. The star line is 4.0 from 251, and the review text is the M1 block, so it is not evidence about the cart. The listing also claims up to about 757 litres a year.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A larger DIY job only if you confirm the hose length before you rely on the 15.2 m bullet.
Less suitable: Anyone using the 251 reviews as proof the cart was tested by those buyers.
Specifications
Common questions
How long is the hose on the M3 extract?
The bullets say two 7.6 m hoses, 15.2 m together, and support for up to 30 m. The hose cell says 1.8 m. The highlight says 15 m.
Does the listing say the cart is easy to move?
The question is on the page. The bullet says the cart makes the sprayer easy to move on larger DIY projects.
Can the 251 reviews be read as M3 reviews?
The star line prints 4.0 from 251. The text is the same block as the M1 file and mentions the MaXpray M1.
The InoKraft NEO is £179.99, 466 W, with a highlight of 0.98 L/min, a 7.6 m hose and a 30 cm extension. The title says 3000 PSI and the pressure cell says 207 bar. The power-source cell says corded electric. The star line prints 4.0 from 251, and the review text in the extract is the same block as the MaXpray M1 file, including sentences that name the M1. Use the star line as printed. Do not read those texts as NEO reviews.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A compact corded pump for walls and fences if you ignore the copied review text and judge the bullets.
Less suitable: Anyone who wants reviews written about this model, or a cordless gun.
Specifications
Common questions
Is the NEO cordless?
No. The page asks the question. The power-source cell says corded electric.
Does the listing include a carrying case?
The question is unanswered. The included list names a gun, hose, nozzle and wrench, not a case.
Are the 251 reviews about the NEO?
The star line prints 4.0 from 251. The review text in this extract matches the MaXpray M1 file and names the M1.
The WORKPRO sprayer is £199.99 with 700 W, a title pressure of 200 bar and a maximum flow of 1.2 L/min. The pressure cell says 2900 psi, which is the same scale as 200 bar. The hose is 7.6 m, with a 30 cm extension and a reversible tip. The 38 litre figure is a project size, not a hopper. Eighteen ratings average 3.8. UK texts include a finished room and also a stream that stayed too thick, plus spare tips the buyer could not find.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Walls and fences around 1.2 L/min when you want the title and the pressure cell to agree.
Less suitable: Anyone who needs a named plug, or who cannot source replacement tips.
Specifications
Common questions
Does the listing say you must thin the paint?
The bullet says no pre-thinning is needed. The tin of paint still governs the mix.
Is a user manual included?
The included-components line lists an instruction guide. The bullet also mentions a quick-start guide.
What is the 38 litre figure?
The bullet says projects using up to 38 L, about 10 gallons. It is a project size, not a paint hopper.
The MAXXT listing is £188.99 with a 1300 W motor, a 7.5 m hose and a 517 nozzle in the bullets. The title says 3000 PSI and 20.7 MPa. The maximum-pressure cell says 3000 pascal. The bullet describes a grounded EU plug for a UK Type G adapter and calls the tool Class II. Recommended uses says Pressure Washing, which does not match the paint-sprayer title. Three UK ratings average 3.6. One of them says the suction needs a deep bucket of paint.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A fence job if you fit a proper UK adapter path and you do not trust the 3000 pascal cell.
Less suitable: Anyone who needs a UK 13 A plug in the listing, or a pressure cell that matches the title.
Specifications
Common questions
What plug does the listing describe?
A grounded EU plug, compatible with a UK Type G adapter. The bullet also says Class II double insulation.
Does the pressure cell match the title?
No. The title says 20.7 MPa and 3000 PSI. The maximum-pressure cell says 3000 pascal.
How long is the hose?
The hose cell and the bullet both say 7.5 m.
The Graco TrueCoat One 26DTC3 is £299.00. The title and the pressure cell both say 117 bar, and the title says 0.9 L/min at 220–240 V. The listing limits it to projects up to 12 litres and about 120 litres a year, with suction from the paint can and a reversible Paint Wide tip. Twenty-eight ratings average 3.2. UK texts praise fences and small jobs, and they also report pumps that stopped, a snapped primer valve and a short mains lead. One UK review says it should have a fitted UK plug. The spec cells do not name the plug.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Fences, sheds and small household jobs inside the 12 litre and 120 litre lines.
Less suitable: A whole elevation or weekly trade work, which the annual line does not cover.
Specifications
Common questions
What materials does the bullet say it sprays?
Most materials cleaned with water or mineral spirits, from stains and lacquers to wall paints, for household use.
Does it come with a spray gun?
Yes. The included-components line lists the TC spray gun and a TrueCoat 360 reversible tip.
What project size does Graco print?
Up to 12 litres a project and about 120 litres a year.
The PORIYA listing is £189.99 and 1700 W, with a title pressure of 3000 PSI and no maximum-pressure cell. The bullet says 2.2 L/min, a 10 m hose, a 0.5 m pole, an EU plug and 220–240 V, plus a CE claim. There is no customer-review line in the extract, so a zero rating is an empty line, not a failed score. The same bullet says the sprayer is for Australian DIY users, despite appearing on a UK listing. Its best-seller rank also sits in Automotive paint guns rather than DIY paint sprayers.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Only if you accept an EU plug, no UK reviews, and a flow figure that is also the tank-volume cell.
Less suitable: Anyone who wants a UK review sample or a BS 1363 plug described on the page.
Specifications
Common questions
What plug does PORIYA describe?
An EU plug at 220–240 V. The bullet also says CE certification. It does not describe a BS 1363 plug.
Which surfaces does the bullet name?
Interior walls, ceilings, wooden furniture, garden fences, sheds and small decks.
Is there an amazon.co.uk star line?
No. This extract has no customer-review line and no review text.
Ten corded airless paint sprayers on amazon.co.uk were compared from the listing extracts dated 16 October 2026. The number on each card is the comparison score on that row, divided by 10. The Wagner Control Pro 250 M is 84, shown as 8.4. The NEU MASTER RP8622 is 71, shown as 7.1. Amazon stars and review counts sit beside that score and are not added again. The five weights below follow the buying checks in order. They sum to 100. They are not a second score. This is not a laboratory test, and it does not name a safest sprayer.
Job size and flow
25%Match litres per minute to the job. The Graco prints 0.9 L/min and a 12 litre project cap. WORKPRO prints 1.2 L/min. Do not fit a large wall tip on a pump under about 1 L/min.
Pressure beside the spec cell
25%Read the pressure cell next to the title. The Control Pro 250 M prints 110 bar in both places. Do not convert a cell that says 3000 pascal or 3000 kilopascal into a 3000 PSI title.
Hose length
20%Hose bullets run from 7.5 m to 15 m. The MaXpray M3 bullets say 15.2 m and the hose cell says 1.8 m. Quote the conflict. Do not pick one figure and drop the other.
Plug, tip and intake
15%UK mains are 230 V and a domestic plug is BS 1363. MAXXT and PORIYA describe an EU plug. A no-pre-thinning bullet does not override the tin. Direct-from-tin intake is stated on the Graco and on both Wagners.
Review evidence
15%Use the printed star line. The MaXpray M3 and the NEO repeat the M1 review text, so those words are not a separate sample. A missing star line, as on PORIYA, stays an empty line.
Match the pump to the job before the brand. Flow, the pressure cell, the hose, the tip and the plug decide whether the machine can feed the coating. A higher PSI line in the title does not.
An airless paint sprayer is a corded pump. It pushes coating through a hose and a tip so the paint atomises without a compressor. All ten machines on this page are corded. A battery gun is a different comparison, the [cordless paint spray gun](/hub/painting-supplies/cordless-paint-spray-gun). None of these listings leaves the lead behind. Lower-pressure airless in this set is the Wagner Control Pro 250 M: 110 bar, a 9 m hose, and Wagner's claim of up to 55 percent less overspray.
NEU MASTER prints 3000 PSI in the title and 3000 kilopascal in the cell. MAXXT prints 3000 PSI and 20.7 MPa in the title and 3000 pascal in the cell. Quote both. Do not convert the cell into the title figure.
Do not fit a large wall tip on a pump under about 1 L/min. Graco's UK FAQ treats 515 as a common latex size. The 250 M includes 311 and 517. The NEU MASTER names one tip and no orifice.
MAXXT and PORIYA describe an EU plug. An adapter on a class I pump is a buying problem. The M3 and NEO review texts copy the M1 file. Do not count them twice. Flush the same day. Do not leave paint in the hose overnight, and do not spray flush water.
Flow is the limit on the tip. The Graco TrueCoat One prints 0.9 L/min, 117 bar, projects up to 12 litres and about 120 litres a year. WORKPRO prints 1.2 L/min. The MaXpray M1 prints 1.17 L/min. The M3 highlight prints 1.25 L/min. The NEO highlight prints 0.98 L/min. PORIYA's bullet says 2.2 L/min, and the tank-volume cell is also 2.2 litres, so do not treat that pair as two confirmed facts. NEU MASTER and MAXXT do not print litres per minute. The Control Pro 250 M title says 15 m² in 2 minutes.
Read the pressure cell next to the title. The Control Pro 250 M prints 110 bar in both places. WORKPRO prints 200 bar and a cell of 2900 psi, which is the same scale. The Power Painter 90 cell says 200 bar. Graco prints 117 bar in the title and the cell. The NEO cell says 207 bar beside a 3000 PSI title. The MaXpray M1 bullet says 3000 PSI and the cell says 3300 psi. NEU MASTER says 3000 PSI in the title and 3000 kilopascal in the cell.
Three typical situations, each with a recommendation from this comparison.
You have one fence or a spare room, and you can accept a pressure cell that does not match the title. The NEU MASTER RP8622 is about £119.99, with 4.2 from 872 ratings. Flow in litres per minute is not printed. It is the best value on price and count.
You will mask, prime and learn the gun. The Wagner Control Pro 250 M is about £475, with 110 bar in the title and the cell, a 9 m hose and tips 311 and 517. The star line is 4.3 from 415. It is the top pick on that match.
You want a printed flow near 1.2 L/min and review text that names the model. The InoKraft MaXpray M1 is about £219.99, with 1.17 L/min and 4.0 from 251 ratings. The same texts call the hose cumbersome in a small furnished room.
The top pick is the Wagner Control Pro 250 M at about £475. 110 bar matches in the title and the cell, the hose is 9 m, the box includes tips 311 and 517, and the star line is 4.3 from 415. The best value is the NEU MASTER RP8622 at about £119.99, with 4.2 from 872 ratings, and a pressure cell that says 3000 kilopascal against a 3000 PSI title. The MaXpray M1 is the mid-price row whose written reviews name that model. None of the ten is cordless, and this is not a lab test.
NEU MASTER RP8622 780 W
About £119.99, with 4.2 from 872 ratings, if you accept a pressure cell of 3000 kilopascal.
