A combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner quickly and efficiently removes paint from the paint roller cleaner while preventing fluids from splashing outwardly and away from the paint roller cleaner. The paint roller cleaner includes a main chamber having a first slot formed at an outer surface thereof, and an auxiliary chamber statically coupled to the main chamber. Such an auxiliary chamber protrudes outwardly from the outer surface of the main chamber and preferably has an outer surface provided with a second slot formed therein. Notably, the second slot may be offset from the first slot in such a manner that an external fluid stream, after passing through the first and second slots, is caused to enter the main chamber at a non-perpendicular angle relative to the outer surface of the main chamber and thereby rotate a portion of the paint roller located within the paint roller cleaner.

1. A combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner comprising: a paint roller cleaner and a paint roller removably inserted into said paint roller cleaner;wherein said paint roller cleaner comprises a main chamber having a first slot formed at an outer surface thereof, andan auxiliary chamber protruding outwardly from said outer surface of said main chamber, said auxiliary chamber having an outer surface provided with a second slot formed therein;wherein said second slot is offset from said first slot in such a manner that an external fluid stream, after passing through said first and second slots, is caused to enter said main chamber at a non-perpendicular angle relative to said outer surface of said main chamber and thereby rotate a portion of said paint roller located within said paint roller cleaner. 2. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 1, wherein said main chamber has a closed distal end and an open proximal end. 3. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 1, wherein said paint roller comprises: a handle;a support frame attached to said handle;a roller head removable engaged about said support frame;wherein said support frame and said roller head are inserted into said main chamber and spaced inwardly from said auxiliary chamber. 4. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 3, wherein said roller head is caused to rotate within said main chamber during cleaning procedures while said handle remains stationary. 5. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 1, wherein said main chamber has a single and unitary body. 6. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 1, wherein said main chamber has a bifurcated body including first and second halves pivotally coupled to each other. 7. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 5, further comprising: first and second planar plates statically coupled to said first and second halves respectively, said first and second planar plates being registered parallel to each other and extending outwardly away from said main chamber;wherein said handle is intercalated between said first and second plates and thereby maintained at a substantially stable position while said roller head is disposed within said main chamber. 8. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 1, wherein said first and second slots are linear and extend parallel to a longitudinal length of said main and auxiliary chambers respectively. 9. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 1, wherein said auxiliary chamber has closed distal and proximal ends respectively for directing the fluid into said main chamber via said first slot. 10. A combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner comprising: a portable paint roller cleaner and a paint roller removably inserted into said paint roller cleaner;wherein said paint roller cleaner comprises a main chamber having a first slot formed at an outer surface thereof, andan auxiliary chamber statically coupled to said main chamber and protruding outwardly from said outer surface of said main chamber, said auxiliary chamber having an outer surface provided with a second slot formed therein;wherein said second slot is offset from said first slot in such a manner that an external fluid stream, after passing through said first and second slots, is caused to enter said main chamber at a non-perpendicular angle relative to said outer surface of said main chamber and thereby rotate a portion of said paint roller located within said paint roller cleaner;wherein each of said main and auxiliary chambers has a hollow interior. 11. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 10, wherein said main chamber has a closed distal end and an open proximal end. 12. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 10, wherein said paint roller comprises: a handle;a support frame attached to said handle;a roller head removable engaged about said support frame;wherein said support frame and said roller head are inserted into said main chamber and spaced inwardly from said auxiliary chamber. 13. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 12, wherein said roller head is caused to rotate within said main chamber during cleaning procedures while said handle remains stationary. 14. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 10, wherein said main chamber has a single and unitary body. 15. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 10, wherein said main chamber has a bifurcated body including first and second halves pivotally coupled to each other. 16. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 15, further comprising: first and second planar plates statically coupled to said first and second halves respectively, said first and second planar plates being registered parallel to each other and extending outwardly away from said main chamber;wherein said handle is intercalated between said first and second plates and thereby maintained at a substantially stable position while said roller head is disposed within said main chamber. 17. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 10, wherein said first and second slots are linear and extend parallel to a longitudinal length of said main and auxiliary chambers respectively. 18. The combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner of claim 10, wherein said auxiliary chamber has closed distal and proximal ends respectively for directing the fluid into said main chamber via said first slot. 19. A method of utilizing a combined paint roller and paint roller cleaner, said method comprising the chronological steps of: providing a portable paint roller cleaner comprising a main chamber having a first slot formed at an outer surface thereof, and an auxiliary chamber statically coupled to said main chamber and protruding outwardly from said outer surface of said main chamber, said auxiliary chamber having an outer surface provided with a second slot formed therein, each of said main and auxiliary chambers having a hollow interior;providing and removably inserting said paint roller into said paint roller cleaner;wherein said second slot is offset from said first slot in such a manner that an external fluid stream, after passing through said first and second slots, is caused to enter said main chamber at a non-perpendicular angle relative to said outer surface of said main chamber and thereby rotate a portion of said paint roller located within said paint roller cleaner.
