The best Electric paint spray guns, compared.
Top pick: YFFU 800 W Best value: Tilswall 800 W – Best value as the highest price-credibility score: about £49.99, 4.4 from 2,180 ratings, a stated 2.5 m hose, and three nozzle sizes you can read. Updated October 2026.
An electric paint spray gun in this UK set is a mains or battery turbine: air through a nozzle turns fence colour, stain, varnish, or a thinned coating into a fan. This page chooses among eleven amazon.co.uk listings saved. Most buyers want panels, a shed, decking, or garden furniture finished faster than with a brush. Judge a gun by whether its stated viscosity matches the tin, whether the cup and hose let you keep moving, and whether reviews describe that job without a clog. The W 100 is 280 W at 90 for lacquers. The fence gun is 460 W at 170. Whole-room emulsion sits outside this set: the fence manual excludes wall paints. Viscosity, the hose, and the UK plug are in the [electric paint spray gun buying guide](/hub/painting-supplies/electric-paint-spray-gun/sub/electric-paint-spray-gun-buying-guide). It is not a trade airless pump, and the word airless on a 650 W cup gun does not make it one. Most people in the review notes use these guns on fence panels, a shed, decking, or garden furniture. A cabinet or a door is the smaller job.

Question 1 of 2
Where is the work?
The YFFU JH-18J is an 800 W split gun at £49.99 with a 1.3 litre cup, a 1.8 m hose, and a 3 m cord, and the star line is 5.0 from 13 amazon.co.uk ratings. Brass nozzles are listed at 1.5 mm, 2.5 mm, and 3.0 mm, with a shoulder strap and a viscosity cup in the box. Listed weight is 2.7 kg, the highest figure among the corded guns in this table. A stored fault says the suction tube drops off the lid. Thirteen ratings at 5.0 are a smaller fact than 4.4 from 2,180 on the Tilswall 800 W at the same price. The listing also prints one year of product support.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A split-gun layout on the specification sheet, after you check that the suction tube stays on the lid.
Less suitable: A fence job you want backed by thousands of UK ratings, or a gun you cannot stop to reseat a tube.
Specifications
Common questions
Does the YFFU include a hose?
Yes. The specification table lists a hose length of 1.8 metres, and a bullet mentions a 3 m power cord.
How many reviews are behind the 5.0 score?
The listing line is 5.0 from 13 ratings.
What container size is listed?
1.3 litres, which is 1,300 ml.
The ToCzernobgol JH-12Z is the gun in this set whose title includes two 4.0 Ah batteries, at £99.99, with 4.8 from 30 ratings and a 1,200 ml cup. Five nozzles are listed from 1.0 mm to 3.0 mm. No hose length is given, so you carry the listed 2.55 kg. The specification table does not list a charger or a voltage. A large share of the stored review texts say they were written in the United States, which leaves the 4.8 as a weak guide to UK fence work. Thirty ratings also sit under the line this score treats as an established sample. At £99.99 it is the highest price in the set.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A cordless trial when you confirm on the live page that both batteries and a charger are in the box.
Less suitable: A UK fence decision based on the 4.8 line, or a garden that already has a mains point along the panels.
Specifications
Common questions
Are batteries included?
The title says dual 4.0 Ah batteries. The specification table does not list a charger or a voltage.
Is there a hose?
No hose length is listed. The power source is battery powered.
How many UK reviews support the score?
The listing line is 4.8 from 30 ratings. A large share of the stored review texts say they were written in the United States.
The Wagner Fence & Decking sprayer, model 2369472, is a 460 W corded turbine with a 1,400 ml pot and a 1.8 m hose, listed at £60 on amazon.co.uk with 4.5 from 4,784 ratings. Owners in the review notes spray fence panels and sheds with Cuprinol and Ronseal, sometimes after a slight thin. Wagner states 170 DIN-sec and claims 5 m² in 9 minutes. The product page quotes a flow of 0–120 ml/min, while the manual allows up to 150 ml/min and rules out wall paints, plaster, facade paint, abrasives, and flammable materials. A shoulder strap keeps the turbine off the wrist, and the listing weight is 2 kg. The cable is short, so the far end of a garden still needs an extension lead, and thick anti-slip decking paint can struggle. The amazon listing prints 240 V, while Wagner's UK page is 230 V and double insulated, so match the rating plate before you plug it in. It is the top pick in this set for fence panels and sheds.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Fence panels, sheds, and decking colour when you will test a thick tin and stay with outdoor wood.
Less suitable: Neat interior emulsion, whole-room walls, or a coating the fence manual excludes.
Specifications
Common questions
What motor power is listed?
The bullets and the item type name state 460 W. The item type also prints 240 V. Wagner's UK page is 230 V, so match the rating plate.
How long is the hose?
The listing states 1.8 metres.
How large is the container?
The listing states 1,400 cubic centimetres, which is 1,400 ml.
The Tilswall 800 W is a split corded gun at £49.99, with 4.4 from 2,180 amazon.co.uk ratings, a 1,300 ml cup, a 2.5 m hose, and a 3 m mains cable. The motor sits off the handle, and the box lists nozzles at 1.0 mm, 1.8 mm, and 2.6 mm plus a shoulder strap, a viscosity cup, and cleaning tools. The listing claims 120 DIN/s and 28 bar. Both figures are seller text. Review notes still name noise, and some colours need thinning before they spray. At a listed 2.22 kg it is a two-handed garden tool, and a warranty bullet says 24 months. It is the best value here, with a hose length you can read and a long review file.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A long fence or shed run when you want a stated hose length and a large UK review file around £50.
Less suitable: Quiet indoor varnish work, or a tin you expect to spray without a test on card.
Specifications
Common questions
Does the Tilswall 800 W include a hose?
Yes. The listing describes a 2.5 m hose and a 3 m mains cable, with the motor split from the handle.
What nozzles are in the box?
The listing names three plastic nozzles: 1.0 mm, 1.8 mm and 2.6 mm.
What viscosity does the listing claim?
The bullet text claims 120 DIN/s. That figure is the seller's claim, not a lab measurement.
The Tilswall Alien 500 is a corded handheld at £39.99 with a 600 ml cup and 4.4 from 28 amazon.co.uk ratings. The specification table does not state watts, and no hose length is listed, so the motor stays in the hand. Nozzles are printed as 1.0 mm, 1.5 mm, 1.5 mm, and 2.0 mm, and a bullet claims up to 100 DIN-s. Item weight is 1.05 kg, while another bullet says 0.7 kg, so the mass is not settled. A full accessory list is missing from the specification table. Twenty-eight ratings leave the 4.4 as a thin sample for fence work.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A bench, a chair, or a short outdoor piece when a thin review file is acceptable.
Less suitable: A long fence, a shed run, or any job that needs a stated wattage and a hose.
Specifications
Common questions
How much paint does the Alien 500 hold?
The listing states a tank volume of 600 millilitres.
Is a wattage given?
No. The model is Alien 500. The specification table does not state watts.
What is the item weight?
The listing gives 1.05 kg for the item. A bullet also claims a 0.7 kg handheld weight.
The NEU MASTER NSG0110-EU500 is a 500 W corded gun at £31.89, with 4.3 from 1,779 amazon.co.uk ratings and a 1,200 ml cup. Review notes place Cuprinol on fences and sheds. The box lists four nozzles and ten filters, though the specification table does not give the nozzle diameters. The hose line is stored as 2 mm, so reach is unknown and a garden run cannot be planned from that figure. Listed weight is 1.6 kg. Among the guns under £40 in this set, it is the one with a review file above 1,000 ratings. That unusable hose figure is why it sits below the Tilswall 800 W.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Fence and shed colour when you can check the real hose on the live listing before you rely on reach.
Less suitable: A measured garden run, a varnish that needs a stated DIN-sec, or any plan that uses the 2 mm hose figure.
Specifications
Common questions
What power does the NEU MASTER list?
The title states 500 W and the power source is corded electric.
How long is the hose?
The specification line says 2 millimetres. That is the stored listing value and is not a usable hose length, so reach should be treated as unknown.
What is in the box?
The listing names 4 nozzles, 10 filters and a user manual.
The Kynjet JH-17 is listed at £33.23 as a 650 W corded gun with a 1,200 ml cup and 4.3 from 111 amazon.co.uk ratings. The title uses the word airless, while the specifications describe a cup gun with a 2.5 mm nozzle fitted and spare nozzles at 1.0 mm, 1.8 mm, and 3.0 mm. No hose length is stored. One stored account says a unit stopped after a couple of uses. Listed weight is 1.7 kg, and the warranty field only prints 2. With 111 ratings it is past the smallest files in this table. The early failure and the airless wording keep it well below the NEU MASTER.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A low-price fence trial when you read the spec as a cup gun and can accept a short review file.
Less suitable: A trade airless pump, whole-house emulsion, or a job where an early failure would stop the work.
Specifications
Common questions
Is this an airless decorator pump?
The title uses the word airless. The specifications show a corded 650 W cup gun with interchangeable nozzles, which is the HVLP layout, not a trade airless pump.
Which nozzle is fitted?
The bullet says the 2.5 mm black nozzle is pre-installed, with 1.0 mm, 1.8 mm and 3.0 mm as spares.
What is the container size?
The listing states 1,200 millilitres.
The Wagner W 100, model 2361508, is a 280 W corded turbine with an 800 ml cup and a 1.5 m hose, at £55 with 4.2 from 3,289 amazon.co.uk ratings. Wagner rates it at 90 DIN-sec for lacquers and varnishes, states a flow of 0–110 ml/min, and claims 5 m² in 12 minutes. UK reviews in the file cover fences, sheds, and trellis, and other buyers use it on furniture once they have practised the fan. Thick Ronseal clogs in the review notes, and several reviewers call it a poor match for painting a room. It is class I, so it needs an earth, and Wagner quotes about 76 dB(A). The 800 ml cup means more refills than the 1,300 ml and 1,400 ml fence pots, and the listing weight is 1.66 kg. The listing prints a four-year manufacturer warranty.
Pros
Cons
Best for: Furniture, metal, varnish, and glaze once you have practised the fan and matched the tin to 90 DIN-sec.
Less suitable: Thick fence colour, anti-slip decking paint, or emulsion on room walls.
Specifications
Common questions
Is the Wagner W 100 cordless?
No. The amazon.co.uk listing gives the power source as corded electric and the motor as 280 W.
How big is the container?
The listing states a tank volume of 800 millilitres.
What did reviewers use it on?
Many UK reviews describe fences, sheds and trellis. Others used it on furniture. Several say it is a poor match for painting a room.
The VexNook YX-SG05 is a bare tool at £39.99 that claims a Bosch 18 V fit, with the battery left out of the box and 4.0 from 9 amazon.co.uk ratings. The cup is 1,000 ml, with nozzles at 1.0 mm, 1.8 mm, 2.5 mm, and 3.0 mm. The listing calls the motor brushless and does not state watts. Named packs include BAT609, BAT610G, and BAT618G. One UK review says a Bosch battery did not fit. Listed weight is 1.16 kg, and the included parts are nozzles, filters, and cleaning tools. Nine ratings do not show whether a given Bosch pack will click home.
Pros
Cons
Best for: An owner of a Bosch 18 V pack who will test the slide on the tool before loading paint.
Less suitable: Anyone without a Bosch 18 V battery, or a fence job that needs a proven fit and a longer review file.
Specifications
Common questions
Is a Bosch battery included?
No. The included-components line lists nozzles, filters and cleaning tools only.
Which batteries does the listing name?
Bosch 18 V models including BAT609, BAT610G, BAT618G, BAT619, BAT621 and BAT620. One UK review says a Bosch battery did not fit.
What is the container size?
1,000 ml.
The Xyvolve Q1P-JY08-550 is an 850 W corded gun at £32.29 with a 1,200 ml cup, six copper nozzles listed from 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm, and 3.9 from 18 amazon.co.uk ratings. No hose length is stored. A bullet mentions a 2.15 m cable, and the box text includes a viscosity cup, gloves, and goggles. Maximum pressure is listed as 0.2 bar, which is a seller figure. Review notes say the body heats up, and one account says the supplier refused support. Eighteen ratings and that support note put it below the long-file corded guns in this table. Listed weight is 1.64 kg.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A low-price trial on a small outdoor piece when you can accept a short, mixed review file.
Less suitable: A long fence run, a call to product support, or a job that needs a known hose length.
Specifications
Common questions
What pressure does the listing give?
Maximum pressure is listed as 0.2 bar. That is a seller figure, not a measurement made for this page.
How many nozzles are claimed?
The title says six copper nozzles from 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm.
What is the star rating?
3.9 out of 5 from 18 ratings on the stored amazon.co.uk line.
The Longzhuo GWD0017-0 is a Makita 18 V gun at £19.99 with no battery in the box, a 1,000 ml cup, and 2.0 from 5 amazon.co.uk ratings. A bullet claims 200 W. Brass nozzles are listed at 1.0 mm, 1.8 mm, and 2.5 mm, with a viscosity cup and ten filter papers. The stored reviews are failures, and one unit broke after about 20 minutes. Listed weight is 1.3 kg in ABS. Five ratings at 2.0 are the weakest star line in this set. The shelf price assumes you already own a BL1860 or BL1830 that fits. The score sits at 1, the bottom of this table.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A spare-nozzle experiment when a Makita 18 V pack is already on the shelf and a failure is cheap to absorb.
Less suitable: A first fence gun, anyone without a Makita 18 V battery, or a weekend job you need to finish.
Specifications
Common questions
Does it include a Makita battery?
No. The title says no battery. You need a compatible Makita 18 V pack.
What power does the bullet claim?
200 W. That is a listing bullet, not a measurement made for this page.
What is the rating?
2.0 out of 5 from 5 ratings. The stored reviews are failures.
Eleven amazon.co.uk listings, with prices and star lines saved on 19 October 2026, were scored on 20 October 2026 from 0 to 100. Amazon evidence is 30, job match is 40, and price credibility is 30. Deductions for a thin review file, an unusable hose figure, an airless title on a cup gun, a support refusal, a dead unit, or a battery that did not fit come off after those blocks. A star average is not a viscosity test, a noise test, or a check that a BS 1363 plug is fitted. This is not a laboratory test. The top pick is the highest score, once. Best value is the highest price-credibility score on a different ASIN, once.
Amazon evidence
30%Star rating on amazon.co.uk, then a volume band up to the 30-point cap. Under 50 reviews adds nothing in that band and later takes a deduction. A 5.0 from 13 ratings is not scored above 4.5 from 4,784.
Job match
40%Whether the stated cup, hose, viscosity, and review notes match fence colour, varnish, or a bare 18 V tool. A fence turbine with a 1,400 ml pot and Cuprinol or Ronseal in the reviews scores higher than a title that says airless on a cup gun.
Price credibility
30%Shelf price in GBP against a spec you can read and a review file long enough to use. About £49.99 with 2,180 ratings and a stated hose scores higher on this block than about £60 with the deepest file, which is why best value and the top pick are different guns.
Buy the gun for the coating and the stated viscosity, not for the wattage in the title. Eleven amazon.co.uk listings were scored from the saved pages of 19 October 2026. A corded fence turbine is the usual panel and shed job. A finer turbine is the varnish and furniture job. A bare 18 V price is only useful if that battery is already yours. A 5.0 from a handful of ratings is not the same evidence as a file of several thousand. The top pick and the best value are named from those scores.
An electric paint spray gun in this UK set is a mains or battery HVLP turbine. Air through a nozzle turns fence colour, stain, varnish, or a thinned coating into a fan. It is not a trade airless pump, and the word airless on a 650 W cup gun does not make it one. Most people in the review notes use these guns on fence panels, a shed, decking, or garden furniture. A cabinet or a door is the smaller job. Whole-room emulsion sits outside the set.
The W 100 is 280 W at 90 DIN-sec. The fence gun is 460 W at 170 DIN-sec. A higher watt figure does not push thick fence colour through the finer gun. Read the viscosity line, and treat a missing figure as unknown.
The fence manual excludes wall paints, plaster, facade paint, abrasives, and flammable materials. A cup gun with airless in the title is still not a trade airless pump. Ceilings and large walls need a different machine.
The Longzhuo and the VexNook leave the 18 V pack out of the box. One UK review says a Bosch battery did not fit the VexNook. The stored Longzhuo reviews are failures. Confirm the battery is in the box before you treat the shelf price as the whole cost.
Coating versus stated viscosity is the first check, and it is part of the 40-point job-match block. The Wagner W 100 is rated at 90 DIN-sec for lacquers and varnishes. The Fence & Decking sprayer is rated at 170 DIN-sec. Tilswall's 800 W listing claims 120 DIN/s, and the Alien 500 bullet claims up to 100 DIN-s. Both of those are seller text. No figure in the saved listing means the limit is unknown, which is why several guns in this table show a dash.
Layout is the second check. A split turbine and hose keeps weight off the wrist on a run of panels. The fence gun, the Tilswall 800 W, the YFFU, and the W 100 all list a hose, so the motor can sit off the handle. A motor in the hand suits a bench and tires the arm on a long fence. The Alien 500, the ToCzernobgol, the Longzhuo, and the VexNook do not list a hose. Container size changes how often you stop.
Three typical situations, each with a recommendation from this comparison.
You want a corded turbine around £50 to £60 and you will test the paint. The Wagner Fence & Decking sprayer at about £60 has a 1,400 ml pot, a 1.8 m hose, and 4.5 from 4,784 ratings. Owners spray Cuprinol and Ronseal, sometimes slightly thinned. The cable is short, and thick anti-slip decking paint can struggle.
You are closer to a varnish gun than to the highest wattage. The Wagner W 100 at about £55 is 280 W, with an 800 ml cup, a 1.5 m hose, and Wagner's 90 DIN-sec rating for lacquers and varnishes. It has 4.2 from 3,289 ratings. Thick Ronseal clogs in the review notes, and room walls are a poor match.
The ToCzernobgol is the only gun here whose title includes two 4.0 Ah batteries, at about £99.99, with 4.8 from 30 ratings and a 1,200 ml cup. The specification table does not list a charger or a voltage. Many stored review texts are from the United States, so the 4.8 is a weak guide to a UK fence. Confirm both batteries and a charger on the live page.
The top pick is the Wagner Fence & Decking sprayer at about £60. It is the highest score: 460 W, a 1,400 ml pot, a 1.8 m hose, 4.5 from 4,784 amazon.co.uk ratings, and review notes that name Cuprinol and Ronseal on panels and sheds. The cable is short, thick anti-slip decking paint can struggle, and the manual excludes wall paints. The best value is the Tilswall 800 W at about £49.99: 4.4 from 2,180 ratings, a 2.5 m hose, a 1,300 ml cup, and nozzles at 1.0 mm, 1.8 mm, and 2.6 mm. Review notes still call it noisy, and some colours need thinning. None of these scores is a laboratory test, a measured DIN-sec, or a claim that any gun sprays neat interior emulsion.
Tilswall 800 W
Best value as the highest price-credibility score: about £49.99, 4.4 from 2,180 ratings, a stated 2.5 m hose, and three nozzle sizes you can read.
