Amazon.com Product Description
Stain and seal that deck in a single pass with this brush/pad applicator and telescoping pole setup. With its patented internal, gravity-feed system, separate hoppers for stain and sealer supply material to the unit's integrated brush and pad applicator head. With a flat pad in front and a brush in back, an even coat of stain colors the wood and a smooth coat of sealer from the angled brush follows right behind, quickly and effectively filling cracks and sealing the surface. Two birds, one stone, and no more wasting time with excessive back and forth to the paint can. The 1-gallon on-board container feeds latex, oil-based sealers, semi-transparent and solid stains directly to the applicators to cover 175 to 250 square feet per fill, depending on surface texture. and, variable flow- control ensures even coverage with a variety of materials from thin sealers to thick stains. Let's not forget the ergonomic handle and telescoping pole, which are easy on the back and arms, and reach 53 inches for uninterrupted, seamless passes across the deck. --Brian D.

BACK SAVING PRODUCT May 16, 2007
The first time I used the Deckmate I planned on throwing it away when done instead of cleaning it but I was afraid I wouldn't find the product again so I cleaned it. It works great! I wouldn't be without one. My deck is old and I didn't have any problem with the coverage. I used a brush in only a few spots on my 16 x 12 deck. I even painted vertical beams with it and it worked great! Make sure you cover any areas you don't want to get stain on because the tank will leak through the air hole if you forget to keep the tank right side up. Easiest painting tool I ever used besides the paint stick. Easy on my back too!
 Tricky assembly, but worth the effort. November 11, 2006

Handle parts are NOT a snap to snap together. Those little tabs don't exactly line up with the holes they need to snap into. They need to fit right and tight, or tool will leak. Had to file off a very slight amount of handle to get the clearance needed for tabs to snap in. However, once assembled correctly, this thing is a Godsend!! I was able to finish a 30' by 20' deck floor in minutes instead of hours. Didn't even wear out the pad, and clean-up was a cinch.
 Completes task but not worth price. June 14, 2006

I recently used this item to do a small deck area 20x12.[...]
You can generally achieve the same results, with one exception, with a short nap roller. The problem with the roller is that it does not get between the boards like this product.
Even after you get the hang of this product (there is a definite learning curve), you will still have to go back and over brush heavy spots and fill in between the deck boards where it missed areas.
I found the product easy to assemble, as long as you read and follow the simple instructions, and durable enough for the task at hand. That said, if you have a very large area, check to make sure you can get replacement pads. The store where I bought it DID NOT have them. That could present a problem.
In response to the comments about the product being flimsy, I found the to be much stronger than a swiffer. Mine does not leak, and that can be caused by improper assembly. There is a certian way to put it together, and if this is not followed it says it may leak.
Lastly, the flow control; takes some getting used to, and it usually needs to be adjusted in small increments DURING the aplication stroke. It takes some coordination and attention to detail.
Wagner website is worthless for suggestions or support.
Most of the advice above is for those who decide to purchase. But, my overall opinion is that a roller acomplishes the same result for less cost.

My experience makes it 2 and 2. I had very good results, even with no instruction booklet. Yes, it took some practice to produce the proper flow, and a brush was still needed in a few tricky areas, but all in all this made the job go rather quickly. This is a light duty tool, but with care it will serve the average homeowner. The area I did so far was only 250 square feet, and I will need a replacement pad to continue - I may have been a bit rough with it. If the surface isn't very smooth, you may want to go with a roller.
