I just ordered a titan 440ix airless sprayer. I'm just looking for some feedback from someone who owns this model. The only sprayer i've owned is the graco 390 and i hope the titan proves to be as durable. The digital settings is what sold me.

Titans are incredibly tough machines, ive had 3 of diff, sizes and models only thing to watch is the pressures on these machines can get out of wack after normal use , have them checked yearly, I had a machine pushing 4,000psi once and its not build for it let alone the lines.
Gracos that ive owned ,the packings seemed to wear prematurly, Titans seem to last longer. Just my opinion.

Ha ha ha...sorry...inside joke
I liked the digital setting idea too
The local shop mgr. however, told me he won't even carry the digital model anymore

The local illegal immigrant worker population always locked themselves out (they have a digital lock out), then brought them back as "broken"

He says he'll order one for me if I want

The titan 440ix is a workhorse it will out perform the 390. I had a 440i for a moment. good and reliable. I prefer a graco, but that is just a preference like a purdy to a wooster. The bottom line is you bought a good sprayer that will perform for you for many years to come. I would get a better gun though like a contractor 2 or fx.

Agreed, the Titan is a great machine but the gun.. upgrade when you can.
