About Grabie Paint Brush Set, Miniature Detail, 11 Pcs for Oil, Acrylic, Watercolor and Gouache
Overall Feedback:
92% positive
86% liked the appearance, but 14% found it unappealing
I appreciate the quality of the brushes, especially the points which are crucial for fine detail work and are wonderful.
I am unable to compare it with the other 3 recommended small brush starter sets.
I find it impossible to roll the paintbrush while holding it in the wide spot and unbalanced if I hold it elsewhere on the shaft.
I received a number 4 brush with some stray, scruffy bristles, which is not ideal for a point brush.
83% appreciated the bristle quality, but 17% noticed shedding
I found that the brushes have the right amount of softness and snap for fine detail work.
The 5-0 brush has some stray bristles, making it nearly unusable, but all the other brushes are perfect.
I received a number 4 brush with some stray, scruffy bristles which is pretty disappointing when I need a point.
86% praised the variety of brushes
The set has a great range of brush sizes from 5/0 to 7, which is enough for any task.
The brushes work as expected and provide fine lines for painting fine hairs, fur, whiskers, and feathers in my art.
89% appreciated the durability, but 11% experienced early wear
I am still using watercolor brushes inherited from my father that are over 60 years old, which shows my positive experience with their durability.
I find that the points of the brushes are crucial for fine detail work and they are truly wonderful.
The brushes have good durability as they are made with quality materials and the hairs are secure in their bases.
I noticed that the number 4 brush has some stray, scruffy bristles which is not good when I need a point. This indicates that the product is not durable enough.
80% liked the ease of cleaning, but 20% found it challenging
The brushes hold enough paint, point well and do not splay out with use, indicating that they are easy to clean and maintain.
When cleaned and stored correctly, the bristles hold their shape well.
I recommend washing the brushes with oily soap after each session to keep them soft and prevent streaky finish over time.
I find the brush difficult to clean and maintain, which makes it hard to roll while using and results in unevenly colored lines.
97% liked the comfortable handles, but 3% found them slippery
I found the contoured brush handle comfortable while using the brushes.
I find the handle of the brush comfortable to hold, but it makes using the brushes awkward.
86% found the set versatile, but 14% thought it was limited
I appreciate the versatility of the brush set with a nice selection of sizes from 5/0 to 7, which is enough for just about any task.
I prefer a regular round handle without the unusual grip.
