Anyone had much experience with them? I am thinking about purchasing a few, but have yet to hear any first hand reviews. I am attracted to them because I think the thicker handles will be more comfortable to hold in the long term providing a little more control.

Not worried about the cost/shipping I know they are aussie. I just want to know if the brush is quality before I pick it up. The only review I've seen so far the guy had a frayed tip when it came in.

Thanks in advance.

Lester Bursley's review.


If you get bent bristles that's probably from the package being shipped and not the manufacturing process. You can just take your hobby/utility knife, isolate the bristle, and snip it off to have your straight brush again.

They look really useful
And iff the brush ends up to be rubbish, or when it eventually gives up you could probabyl use your modeling skills to make a switcheroo with your other favorite brush.

Edit; just a thought, when they are teaching children to write at schools they often have rubber grippy things that slide onto pencils which encourage those with difficulty to be holding it correctly. Is there a similar product, or could it be made, to slot onto paint brushes to provide a more substantial grip.

I bought one to try out, and while they are ok brushes, it hasn't replaced my W&N brushes. I just couldn't get it to hold a point.

Which one did you buy? Some of them aren't meant to hold one.
