"I've painted 3 rooms with Harmony VOC paint and am very satisfied with this paint. The application was a breeze and the paint adhered very well to the surface. My home has textured walls so 2 coats of paint is a must. I do recommend using a tinted primer and quality rollers. I'm an allergy and asthma sufferer and there were no fumes or smells with this paint. I was able to paint with no problem and remain in the house as the paint was drying."

Best Paint

"Their Harmony Interior Acrylic Latex paint is an excellent product in that is has a zero VOC content and very low odor. These can even be applied inside the home, while people are living there. For parents that have infants and children in the home, this is an ideal product. Their paints also come with additives that inhibit microbes (mold and mildew), and they clean up with water. Sherwin Williamss paints are known to be available in a rainbow of colors, and last a very long time under normal use. Each gallon covers approximately 400 sq. ft., and surfaces can be repainted in about 4 hours"

"I bought this paint for a guest room that has always had an odd odor since we bought the house. While we were taking up the flooring to try to remove the odor if possible, we decided to paint too. The room definitely smells better now. The paint had very little odor while going up. Although the Belvedere Cream almost covered in one coat over a flat finish underneath, the Creme' definitely did not cover in one coat over an eggshell finish underneath it (both surfaces had a white color underneath---so nothing too challenging to cover). I have come to be skeptical that anyone's paint can cover in coat unless you are painting freshly primed brand new drywall. I will continue to use this paint again in the future. I would give it five stars except for the need to do two coats."

"I have chemical sensitivities and before we moved into our "new" (20 y/o) house, I wanted the pantry and closets all painted. Food and clothes next to paint that smells & has toxic chemicals just is icky, to me. Harmony paint was great, for us. It went on pretty easily, covered nicely, and had a really mild smell that disappeared within a day or two. Everyone is different in their tolerance to smells, etc. but we are very happy with it and will use it when we remodel, too."

"I've used this paint on the ceiling in all three of my bathrooms (Ice Cube) on heavy texture and I couldn't ask for a better product! It covers well, has low odor, cleans easily, and has a beautiful finish. My number one choice for bath paint."

"Painted our bedroom with this paint. Did the closets and the odor was a bit strong, but will get that with any paint in a confined space. Went on nice with a brush and roller. Drying time was quick too. Cleanup was a breeze. Will be buying more in different colors to do more rooms."

"I have noticed that some contractors try to talk you out of using it, because it costs more and might need more to cover. Once it's up it looks great, is easily cleaned, with no odor. I really like it."

Great Experience & Fun

"I had a great experience with this eco-focused paint. The color was SW 6119 Antique White and made a decision to put three top coats over Sherwin-Williams Interior/Exterior Latex Primer in standard white Multi-Purpose primer because it promotes outstanding results with the top coat(s) instead of the Harmony primer, because of the Sherwin-Williams Multi-Purpose primer has quicker dry time to touch and recoat times as the area painted was side walls of a stair case. Heavy traffic areas are now a sinch to touch up clean with a cool/cold mild soapy water mix. There was no odor during painting and after even colorant tint odor was undetectabler too. Guests didn't detect the walls were painted hours earlier. Excellent paint. All three coats were done beyond the dry times on the lable on Harmony's can. The can isn't a typical metal based can; it was similar to heavy quality recyclable plastic so at the time of purchase I added a fairly priced empty metal-type gallon with lid due to improved longer term storage and reuse with a traditional tin-like can.
My batch of paint was purchased with a perferred customer coupon program discount and included to that purchase was a Sherwin-Williams Contractor Series (made in the USA) Polyester 9" 3/8" nap paint roller which was cleaned after every use with mild soap hot water a painter's 5-n-1 tool to shead off excess liquid and cleaned with a spinner cleaning tool under running hot water until the water ran clear...quickly towled driy and replaced into it's plastic packaging stood upright to promote even drying.
Honestly, my batch was excellent. Never drooled on me and while I used it. True that I didn't use a painter's grid. If you don't know what a painter's grid it is generally diamond shape grids in a sqaure shape; some are plastic and others are stainless steel; some are long and some are small ; these grids fit in a 5 gallon bucket or any roller tray on the market today. This pro-painters tool will help many DIY folks to reduce poor paint results. Painting errors tend to occur from applying way too much paint on the wall, this tool will lessen the chances to apply too much paint on the roller. A retired handy man has recommended two thin top coats and there is a way to do just that. It takes practice and evenlly light rolling goes along way to get pro-like results. Too much paint on the roller always ruins the project ---do it right and you'll have fun."

"I absolutely love this paint. I am constantly redecorating my house or moving into a new house and redecorating it, so I believe I'm a pro when it comes to paint use and selection. This is by far the best paint I've ever used. No more box store stuff for me - they wind up costing me too much. I'm an allergy sufferer and the low odor allows me to apply this myself. It requires restirring more than most paint, but it's a small price considering the results. I won't use anything else."

Painted Childrens Rooms

"Normally, I like to read reviews before I buy anything. But since I am a Preferred Business Partner member, I just wanted to take advantage of the discounts. I'm really happy though that I did not read the reviews because it would have changed my mind about buying this product.
I used Harmony to paint 2 rooms that were going to be nurseries/childrens rooms someday as it was recommended. And it's fantastic! Very little to no odor and coverage was GREAT! I used ONE coat of primer and ONE coat of tinted paint. I think that most people take for granted the importance of primer.
It is a bit pricy, but if you invest in a gallon of primer (which is cheaper than the tinted paint), you save on double the amount of your tinted paint. Also, if you are painting say a dining room or a room that you wouldn't sleep in, I think you could get away with a cheaper, low VOC or regular paint. I would highly recommend this for childrens rooms/bedrooms. Just make sure you buy primer."

Worked Beautifully

"I used a sage green and a chocolate brown to paint my nursery- paint DOES need a lot of stirring (used it the day after I bought it), but once it's all mixed up it goes on smoothly and beautifully, and there really was no paint smell! Didn't use a primer, and I needed a second coat on the green, but not on the brown. I used a couple quarts of the SW "Durable Home" paint to add decorations (Harmony doesn't come in quarts unfortunately) and the smell difference really was remarkable."

"I used Harmony paint because my customer suffered from asthma and was sensitive to paint fumes. This was an excellent choice for that purpose. The paint was easy to work with but did not cover as well as I had hoped. It took two coats throughout the house. Semi-gloss was a pain but the finished look was wonderful."

"I have used Harmony for three rooms and the kitchen cabinets, because my wife is very sensitive to paint fumes, and gets serious allergic reactions. This stuff has been great, definitely much better to use than regular paint. It goes on well, and with a good primer has been EXTREMELY durable even on the kitche cabinets, which understandably get tons of wear and tear. I am buying more tomorrow to do the bathroom vanity."

"This is the WORST Paint. To start, I had this paint color matched. It was perfectly matched. Just had to paint a hallway. The coverage was POOR - very streaky with roller marks and thin. I will have to paint it again with a better quality paiint. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS PAINT!"

"Worst paint I ever used. You need to use double the amount to cover walls, poor coverage. Duration is better choice. Employees are outstanding and agreed to make amends since paint has a lifetime guarantee. Customer Service is awesome."

Very strong odor, poor coverage

"I would not recommend Harmony to anybody who finds paint odor unpleasant. The paint I have could not be used in an occupied room. (The product literature states it could be.) I was told this paint is used in hospitals and nursing homes but that would have to be in unoccupied rooms or unoccupied floors.
I am assuming the paint was still no VOC. I will find out in the morning if the colorant was no VOC as well. I am surely going to talk to the kind people at the store and see if I can get my money back on the gallon I haven't used.
So in summary, nice employees, bad paint.
In terms of coverage, I'm not expert but I was not impressed. I will try another no VOC paint."
