China and Taiwan have done a pretty good job in copying the spray patterns of the expensive guns, so most of them do a decent job with that. The pros are still going to pay the extra money for the feel and cleanup ease of the more expensive guns. The gravity feed system with disposable bags is really nice for cleanup. However, for the occasional DIY guy, you can get the HF guns on sale and just toss them when you are done with the job, no clean up necessary.
