No bad for having it shipped to your home.

But if you have a harbor freight near you they have the 24in for $5.99

No. The blade's not that strong, and it bends or gives slightly. The handle is plastic. If you paint, the blade has to go *under* the trim, or the paint will flow beyond the blade to the surface you are trying to protect. I have 2 of these, in different sizes, and I find they are hardly used because of these issues, and that painters tape and/or rosin paper is a much better option.

This is fine to wedge under baseboards to protect flooring. But use tape on top of the baseboard or for crown molding and straight lines.

These are good for painting base where there is carpet.

If you cover the blade in Frog Tape, it will eliminate a lot of the bleed through.

But if you're doing a long section, you might as well use the Frog Tape to tape off the surface.

Exactly they are absolutely awful. I bought one to use while painting my house hoping to save time taping. I ended up throwing it in the garbage. It was awful no matter what I did it would drop paint onto whatever I was trying to edge. Ended up waisting more time repainting than I would have if I had simply taped.

I think they were providing an alternative for people who do not have Amazon prime or $25 worth of items to order

Definitely would not paint the inside of my house with this. But for under my dock where I want to paint the wood structure but not get overspray on the composite decking or shooting up between the boards, it is perfect. Spraying fascia but not shingles or roofing, plenty of applications for those who are lost, but maybe not where you are thinking
