What is the best paint brand to use?

I pretty much just use dulux. I want to paint my spare room, and I was wondering if there was any other brands that are better than dulux, maybe cheaper too?

I saw "leyland" the other day, which is 9.99 for 2.5ltrs, where as dulux is £20 for 2ltrs.

Anyone tried leyland or any other brands?

    Most quality paints are about the same. I make my decisions on what the paint offers, if it has a certain kind of protection, stain resistant, easily washable and the most important thing for me is the odor. you're going to have to live with the smell of that paint from 2 to 10 days. I can't abide any paint that has ammonia in it. Go to a couple of paint stores and talk to the salesman about what you want to paint and what you expect the paint to do for you. Get some free samples and try it out on your walls to see if you have any feelings one way or the other about the paint.

    Love Sherwin Williams. Hardly any smell, goes on great, and wipes off nicely.

    Walmart paint is Sherman Williams paint. My friend works for Sherman Williams and he told me this.

    never heard of it. stay with dulux its the best paint brand. and for a spare room you probably don't need that much paint so it won't be that expensive either
