Advantages: Covers well, good value, great choices available

Disadvantages: Can seem expensive

I have two very awkward children who can not agree on what colour they wanted in their bedroom so we came to a comprimise of yellow and green. These were picked because they will go with the ben 10 theme that they both want.

The colours in the ben 10 theme are very vibrant and I thought I would have problems trying to find them. When I got to B & Q I spotted the colours range. It is one of the cheapest matt paints that are available but did still cost me £11 a tub. They are a 2.5 litre tub so due to the room I have decorated I have got plenty left over.

This paint only needed to be painted on once which was great because it was so thick. Both the yellow and the green are very vibrant but because of doing them on seperate walls they cancel the vibrance out slightly.

The whole range is brilliant for children they have got more calming colours and then the bold ones too for awkward children like mine. It is good value for money because it streaches quite far and covers the walls in one coat. It comes in a plastic tub which is easy to open at and close much better than the tins. It drys quite quickly eventhough it is thick paint.

The colours range in general has a good selection of colours to choose from and are well displayed for you to see what the end colour result is. I would say this paint is well worth the money.

Summary: good value paint well worth the money
