Review on 300-Pack Steel Wire Brush Set With Rotary Tool Accessories - Rocaris Wire Wheels, Pen Brushes Kit For Improved Cleaning And Polishing by Kantrel Tunstill

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Do not recommend. Poor quality. Terrible experience.

I was excited to receive these since there were 60 pcs for about $20, instead of $5 per wheel for the Dremel brand wheels. My project was removing rust from heavy iron grilling grates. I had already used the only two wire brush heads that came with my original Dremel Tool set, they were enough to almost finish one whole grate (in the first pic) front and back. When I got this set, after less than 10 minutes eight brushes were already worn out (they only lasted a couple minutes each, and one of the brush heads flew out altogether the first moment it made contact with the grate (in the second pic). Additionally (and nearly as frustrating) while I was working with them, I could feel the tiny wires (in the third pic) flying off the brush head and hitting me in the face/neck/body. After I decided to stop because I could tell I was gonna burn through the whole set and not even finish a single grate, it took me about 20 minutes to stand there and pull out dozens and dozens of tiny steel wires from my clothes and skin. And if you don't take them out they stay in your clothes and feel like needles are pricking you throughout the day. Unfortunately this was a terrible product for me. I'm surprised the other reviews are so positive. Maybe if you're only using them for something very light duty, they might work better, but I don't see the point of a "light duty" carbon steel wire brush.

Pros
  • The set is durable and long-lasting, saving you money in the long run
Cons
  • The set is not suitable for use on surfaces with oil or grease buildup
