Default Dulux Paint Pod, is it worth it??

Been looking at these Paint Pod things. And had seen mixed reviews. Some people say its great and worth the expense, other say you might as well get as a toddler with a paint brush to do your decorating, you would get better results.

Whats the consensus on here?

i perfer the paint pad to a roller though takes longer, the missus dad uses a sheepskin roller and dont use the stupid tray, he uses the trade type buckets, masks up the room, does the cutting in first and then just splats the paint away all over the place and done my entire lower floor including prep work in a evening

no need for paint pod with him working !!!
