My only issue with the rental units is what you said -- you need to get used to the volume of paint. This is not anything like spraying from a rattle can. First time I tried one I had paint running down the wall in rivers.
They are great for any kind of textured ceilings. For me rollers are easier for walls. I don't have to worry about masking off the whole room for overspray. If I were doing a whole room in new construction with no furniture or trim or floor covering installed yet, I would use a sprayer.
