I'm sorry, but you did ask ....
This paint has caused me several problems. I tried to apply it with a roller but it seemed very thick and was pulling off almost as fast as I could apply it. Eventually I had to thin it quite a bit to get it onto the wall and then needed to apply several coats. The same was true of applying it around the edges using a paint brush. It doesn't seem to want to flow at all. I have much experience of decorating over the years and sadly, this is the worst emulsion paint that I have ever used. I later tried applying it to another wall using a Harris paint pad. The result was the same. The paint seemed to dry very quickly as I was applying it, leaving rough patches that needed to be sanded when dry. I bought 3 tubs ... I'm hoping that I can return at least one of them 'cos I'm now committed to that colour ... I don't feel that I can start all over again with different paint.

Does the job
I used this paint in my living room, hall and kitchen and it’s really good paint, sometimes it is thin at first but after a really good mix it’s fine, this was only the case with one of the 2.5L the rest were fine. I’m going to use it again it’s definitely worth the savings.

Not the same as the sample pot at all
I brought a sample pot of this paint and really liked it so went ahead and got it I decided to just so the cutting in etc and realised very quickly it is not the same one bit. I already have white walls and it was no different. I spoke to B&Q and explained I had opened the pot and used some but it isn't the same and they have said to bring into store. Now I'm on the hunt for anouther colour and really hope I find the one I want really disappointed with this but glad I hadn't used much of the paint I would recommend doing a small patch test with the main paint before painting walls or you could be left very disappointed!

Tough and durable
I didn’t buy the sample pot. I looked at the sample in the store as I wanted an off white for my living room. Excellent coverage and as I live with young children I need to be able to clean dirty marks off the wall which I can do with this paint without scrubbing the paint off too.

Poor coverage and colour
Bought this yesterday as wanted a light cream paint as per the colour card. This isn't cream, it's almost white and is really runny paint, taken three coats so far. Never again will I buy any of the new B &Q paints, previous paints have never been this runny

I recently moved house and completely redecorated, using a number of different brands of paint that I am not allowed to mention - then I needed some off white, B&Q was down the road, so I bought this.It is worse than all the others. No real redeeming features. Thin, drips and runs, needs a lot of coats. Looks OK when you've finished, but it's cheap paint - not sold at a cheap price

We were looking for a warm stone type colour, this is more magnolia. We found the coverage to be excellent and the paint quality was good. Id advise using a test pot first
