I know where you can get a job painting a deck...
As for the Wagner, If I were a professional I wouldn't use one either - and I would have serious concerns about a professional painter that I hired that brought one in to use. But for the average joe with a weekend do-it-yourself project they will do fine. I bought one to do a deck with about 5 years ago. Since then, it's painted many projects - even shot Elastomeric roof coating on a 40x60 metal roof with it and the thing is still going strong. I do make sure it is good and clean when I am through with it.
