How about YOU buy one, & then let US know if it works?
to be honest, it looks like a bit of a gimmick for the DIY.
When rolling walls, it is good practice, to apply the material & then lay it off in one direction {usually top to bottom}the other thing, it is mentioned about not having to move ladders etc, you have to get up there to cut in anyway, so I would say that any time saving using this device would be negligible.

Must be a purdy company right? jiffyloc is there tm, was thinking it might be handy in commercial stairwells with those oversized lights that you cant get up tight to with roller save running mini roller round.

RE: new roller system
It looks totally DIY to me Andy, buy surely as a pro dec you don't need telling that, I dont understand why you asking someone else to buy one? Is there a reason you can't buy one ?

Sorry Andy, but i'm confident I won't be sourcing one to buy or try, for all the reasons Aggie mentioned.
