I was unconvinced when Mr Shakes insisted using Farrow and Ball but having painted the house when we first moved in I was really surprised at how much less stinky it was than normal paint and it does need fewer coats.
The paint lasts really well and we are only having it re-painted as I did such a bad job and now we've had the bathroom done it the rest of the house looks shabby. I put my foot down and we are getting it done professionally this time.
My argument was helped by the fact that Mr Shakes still hasn't done the bits I can't reach and I finished it 2.5 years ago!
If you're going to use expensive paint, then you can't afford to waste it, and should therefore get yourself someone who knows what they're doing!
