I have been through the utter frustration of having roller covers slip and having to reposition them before every re-load. So I got this Wooster Sherlock roller frame and... it REALLY WORKS!!! I can go as fast as I want for as long as I want on the wall, in any direction and the roller cover just stays on, like it should. This is a truly operational painting tool and has saved me immense amounts of time and temper.
Getting the roller cover off for cleaning, well, with me, that has always been a problem but no more, just a light tap on the sink and it's done. Honestly this is the ideal scene for a roller frame.

Thought this was a better quality roller, Its not, painted out 2 houses with it and now the spindels worn out on the frame end causing the roller wobble about, plus the thread in the hand is too big for( not only standard size)but the
wooster & Sherlock roller pole as well! = Rubbish!

I'm an apprentice house-painter, and the Wooster is my Roller Frame of choice. The handle is comfortable even for my large hands, the hardware is solid and extremely easy to clean up. The Roller itself is smooth, and has never gotten stuck, nor has the roller pad slipped off of the frame.

If you take care of this frame, it can last quite a long time.
