cheap Chinese made but as good quality as any i've used before. Wear safety glasses/goggles/face shield and protective clothing when using. The fine wire bristles will fly off and embed themselves in your arms, hair and any exposed body part. They did the job of rust removal though and prepped the surface for refinishing quickly and easily. I carefully swept the surrounding area afterward so i did not pick up fine wire bristles in my feet or my dogs feet, when walking barefoot in the area afterward.
