He's posted two different reviews of the same booth. The first video was posted back in December 2022. The second video was posted in December 2023. Even though the two booths are under different branding, they are actually identical in every detail apart from the brand name.
This is a detailed review and demonstration of the ES-600 waterfall airbrush spray booth. In this review, I provide an up close view of the components of this spray booth and I discuss some of the things that are of poor quality or might cause frustration if used on a daily basis. I also demonstrate how dirty and contaminated the unit becomes after just a few minutes of use. Although the spray booth does capture some of the paint overspray into the waterfall, it produces a filthy mess after just a few minutes of use.
This product is sold on Amazon by many different 3rd party sellers. They simply rebrand the product with their own logo, but the underlying product is the same. The unit consists of a water pump that recirculates water over an acrylic plate that is designed to remove paint particles from the air. There is also a traditional air filter behind the waterfall curtain. The air flow is produced by three variable speed PC-style fans.
I made this video in response to a review that was posted by the Barbatos Rex channel. He gave this unit an enthusiastically positive review and made it seem like a worthwhile purchase. I couldn't be more opposite in my negative opinion of this thing! This product is poorly constructed, it doesn't do a good job of capturing overspray into the waterfall, it produces a mess after just a few minutes of use, and there is absolutely no way to obtain service or replacement parts. The user's manual doesn't even show a company name who makes this item. I can only conclude that it is so poorly made and so ineffective that the people who made it don't want anything to do with it after foisting it upon unsuspecting hobbyists!
In conclusion, all I really need to say is BUYER BEWARE. Do not buy this waterfall spray booth from amazon or from anywhere else. If you need a spray booth, I recommend that you just go with a traditional air filtration spray booth and don't be deceived by this 'waterfall' gimmick. This particular unit creates a wet mess of gunk and and it does a terrible job of actually filtering the paint overspray from the atmosphere. There are far better options available, with less frustration and mess. - Hudba
I have this item for just about a year, it's been great I have done a dozen models , I do plenty of painting with this spray booth , so far everything works perfect. I also watch rex videos which was a reason I looked into this model. Again no problems with this unit . This is maintenance for this machine but no big deal very easy to do. Again everything works just fine .
I just purchased this brand new from a Amazon return store for $65. Great score
Thank you so much for that information. I very appreciate how you show it.
Thanks for the Great review. Love your honesty, saved me the trouble.
Hi! Just wanted to add my own 2 cents to this.
First of all, the video was very informative and I might reconsider buying this spray booth so thank you for that!
Secondly, the black filter under the waterfall is a carbon filter. Same kind of filter that goes above your average stove in the kitchen. It cleans and traps some "stuff", Google about it, it probably does more than you think.
Thirdly, you should never use a rattle can in booths like this, they're designed for airbrushing pretty much. A rattle can is far too aggressive and I bet those white chunks in the water is from the rattle can.
Wish I saw this video before purchase, had same issue. Went back to my original Pace airbrush booth.
I ended up buying the Pace booth instead after research on this one.
Thanks for saving me a headache .
You’re welcome! I’m glad my video actually made out there given that I have literally no CZcams presence 😀
We see you! lol 😎👍🏼
Great review - Thanks .
I was about to buy this and this addressed many concerns
are you guys painting lacquer? how well does it vent out the toxic fume smell ?
Hi this Toylife. I bought this spray booth and it looks like the water pump is very weak. Do you know what to do?
Good video... jusy a few comments. Ive watched the videos you mention and it was mention to use a carbon filter into a bucket or a large box with some sort of filter material inside. I believe the real purpose of this type of booth is to reduce smell and dust. The design i agree isnt the best. There is a better booth out there that does a better job because it sperates the dust and fumes. Unfortunately it more expensive and not available at this time.
What's the other booth?
i really appreciate this video. i have seen the videos robert has done and have wondered just how these performed. recently he did a video on venting the booth into a bucket with a few inches of water as a magic fix all and when questioned about using for lacquers he told the commenters that it was safe and it has made me question a lot of his advice now as i know for certainty that his advice is poisoning people and pets . i don't think he means bad but suggesting to 83.000 people to vent solvents into their living space is a bit naïve and cavalier
Barbatos Rex is overly optimistic on just about everything. Now everyone in this space is shilling for Gaahleri airbrush’s
Seems overly critical and nit picky. Somewhere between this and Rex’s video lies the truth.
Mine works great! I won't go back.
Why are you using rattle cans..? The carbon filter works great and uber easy to clean.
What kind of spraybooth do you recomend for a beginner, dont like it to small
After returning this waterfall clunker, I bought a booth from Pace Enterprises www.pacepaintbooth.com. These booths are most excellent. I bought the mid sized unit and I absolutely love it. It has a very powerful fan that sucks up the overspray with ease. I may post a review video of the Pace booth. I have the 24 inch “Super Mini” model.
Sadly i'm in sweden :(
@charleslaine how long did it take you to receive yours from the order date? I did the same as well after reading a lot of reviews for the water fall
I have had know problems with the 2 i have .put rainx on the Clear plastic that helps big time and i glued it together with Silicone i use them everyday im a full-time model builder I love them .
Please price
You don't have to clean it all the time .i have a drain i added so when i need to drain it every other week and add water its fine the black filter Material i remove it every other week also .you are being a little bit to picky its a good spray booth i have 2 of the big ones and im making a bigger one in my garage. Good luck if you want to sell it let me know.
Any one wants to sell there spray booth i buy them
The waterfall idea is a gimmick way to suck your money. If this worked, all the commercial spray booths that painted cars etc. would use this. And, they Do NOT!! In my past life I used to inspect commercial paint booths. This gimmick was Never used. Its BS, vent to the outside is the only way.
I completely disagree with this opinion.
Well you don't have a clue what you are talking about most factory use the same thing. They been a around for years
This is wrong. Waterfall booths are most definitely a thing. For auto body they weren't really used (if ever). But for factory/production line yes. Though they're not designed like this. They work very well when designed properly.
Auto body typically use a downdraft or cross draft. The booth will also have a heated option for quicker cure times.
