Cheap paint sprayer - will it do what I need it for?

    I have 13 internal pine doors which I would like to paint in an off-white colour.

    I did one by brush and it was way too much hassle, hence my thinking of spray painting.

    I looked at the price to hire a sprayer and its coming in at around £50 per day. Admittedly this is probably a decent quality one, but I can also buy a basic one delivered from Amazon for the same price.

    Will the cheapo one do the simple task I need it to do, i.e. spraying paint on to doors? Will it do the job any less well than the expensive one?

    Considering I have 13 to do, it might be tight going getting them all done in 1 day, so I would prefer to own a sprayer and do it in my own time.

    So anyone got any experience of the cheaper ones, like from Wagner or Bosch?

    Update: made a low ball offer on a used Wagner 550 on eBay, and it was accepted. Item only used once according to seller, will see what sort of job it does for me. That's Easter out for me!
