Sprayers: Stand, Hi-boy, Or Low Boy ?


I'm set on getting a Graco 395. I'd like to hear the advantages and disadvantages of the stand, low-boy, and high-boy models. I'm trying to figure out if the roughly $300 more for the high-boy over the stand model is worth it being that I don't have the need for a sprayer very often.

I have a Graco 395ST low boy. I don't use it every day and don't leave it in my van. It's not that heavy and it's easier to store in a cabinet than a hi boy. my 2 cents

I answered this question on paint talk and i recommended the high boy, yet you did not mention $300 price diference. I say get the stand mount.

Dude, I think We went over this once already. I wouldn't pay $300 for that S***... If you have the need to spend that kind of money, send it to me.

You are not going to use it that often why pay $300.
