Wooster Brush R017-9 Sherlock Roller Frame, 9-Inch

Speaking to the DIYers and us non-pro painters- this is the BEST roller handle you can buy! You know the part when you have to pull the roller off of the handle when you’re finished painting, how it’s always a big mess? Well, this handle allows the roller to slip on extremely easily and then it locks in just at the very end, so getting the roller cover off of this thing is a breeze. Sure you can spend a dollar or two less, but don’t lose the plot! Make your project easier! Thankfully we have Wooster brush, made here in America. Paint supplies made in America with exceptional quality, thoughtful design, and ease of use! Gold star for Wooster!

Holds well and rolls well with the paint on the walls. It is a bit heavy and extended use may become tiring but I think good quality and price are the primary factors. It is easy to use and is the standard size.

I would not say I am a professional painter but I do paint quite often and have a pretty good understanding of the tools used and having used many different roller frames in the past this one really surprised me with how well it works. Biggest issue for me with roller frames is they have to grip the roller cover so it does not shift in the frame but not grip it so well you can’t remove it when your done. Over the years I had experience with both of these conditions with roller frames and it makes for a frustrating experience. This roller frame has solved that issue for me as it walks the line well, gripping the cover during painting but not so much that a slight tug releases it from the frame when your done. Also the bearings are really smooth and the cage rolls well on the frame. Cleanup is very easy as well. Frame is a little on the heavy side but I actually prefer that as it does not flex when on the end of a long poll. Made in the USA is great as well. Wooster has a great product here and the price is really fair for what your getting. Highly recommend. If you found this review helpful please hit the helpful button below.

This roller frame is a fantastic value for the price. It feels sturdy and well-built, making it easy to apply consistent pressure for a smooth, even coat of paint. The roller spins freely without sticking or dragging.It locks securely with the roller cover and doesn’t flex or feel cheap like some budget frames do. For the money, you really can’t beat this frame—great performance without the high price tag. Highly recommended for both DIYers and pros.

Holds the roller well. Seems to be very sturdy. Have only painted a few rooms with it but we’ll see how it holds up. Has some weight to it, so not for someone with weak wrists.

My Favorite roller by far. You can see why so many professionals recommend it. Spend the extra few dollars and grab this roller over others. Feels good in your half, it’s sturdy and rolls great

Why have I been saving just a few bucks for every paint job by using cheap rollers? I found out that all that flexing and bending of the frame IS NOT NORMAL ! It was also the cause of most of my lousy results and the need to apply multiple coats trying to get a decent look. I thought that getting professional-level roller cages was going to be a budget eater - mostly why I never looked at them until now. Again, thanks to the professors at the "University of YouTube" I decided to try these out. Holy Cow! Just a few bucks per roller cage more and the night-and-day difference in painting experiences became an epiphany! No flexing, and the design is for LONG TERM LIFE with MUTIPLE USES. Add these to Wooster's Sherlock pole system, and painting became the joy I always thought it should have been - but never seemed to be attained. Seriously folks - - superior quality is just a cup-o-starbucks cost away! I highly recommend you try these out!

I bought this after realizing after painting one room I needed both and extension pole and compatible roller. The 3/4" standard threads fit perfect into the 3ft extension pole I purchased. Overall, the roller frame was easier to use than the "Premium" rollers I have from the big box store paint kits. The snap lock held the nap securely over 3 hours of use and it wasn't overly difficult to remove the naps after use like some other rollers.
