Revainrating 4 out of 5

There you have a bit of everything. not the best quality, but it does the job.

the quality of these brushes are not that good, but at least it get me out of doubts. because, I had no idea about what type of brushes to buy, so i found this combo at a cheap price. and now i know exactly what kind of brushes fits better for me. I liked the oranges and the syntethic ones. so in the future i will buy those.

Pros
  • Very easy to use! My 1 year old twins could use them easily. They cleaned very nicely
Cons
  • The set doesn't include a variety of brush shapes

Good for the first few uses

Good quality and clean lines, but the hairs began to loosen and fray after a few uses. You have to cut off the stray hairs, but good for the price.

Pros
  • The brushes have been designed to allow for maximum flexibility and control in your painting style, so you can execute your vision perfectly
Cons
  • Brushes lose their shape after a few uses

Value at a Great price

It’s nice to have a variety of brushes at a great price. Like any brushes you have to be careful for the wild piece of the brush hair that comes loose

Pros
  • Arts, Crafts & Sewing
Cons
  • Brushes have been known to rust after cleaning

great for beginners

these are great for beginners! they're easy to use and clean, but i will say that some of the brushes (with the dark hair) tend to fall out, especially while painting, but they're plenty of brushes that this includes that you can use besides the ones that fall out:)

Pros
  • Painting
Cons
  • The set doesn't include a brush case or pouch

Amateur Artist good for me

Love the fact that it starts me off with a wide variety of brushes. This helps me see which ones I may need specifically depending on what I’m painting. I would love if these brushes would be labeled to help teach this beginner how to use certain ones.

Pros
  • The brushes make it easy to blend colors together, resulting in a smoother, more cohesive final painting
Cons
  • The brush handle color is ugly and clashes with my supplies

My daughter is super happy with them

My daughter does a lot of painting and had lost many of her brushes to our puppy. She is really happy with these and I was really happy with the price. It's hard to beat the amount of brushes you get for $6! Hopefully she'll be able to keep them away from the puppy!

Pros
  • The set includes different types of brushes, from flat brushes to round brushes, that can be useful for different painting techniques
Cons
  • The brushes are not labeled with their specific use/purpose

Shedding Bristles!: my feedback

Buyer beware! Some of these brushes are of very poor quality and will leave bristles all over your artwork. They fall out and you don't even have to pull hard on them to pull a substantial amount of bristles out. They work as brushes should, though. The brushes are separated into three different pockets in the packaging and I've noticed the red/orange/white ones are the poorly made ones. The rest are fine. Maybe made from another company? :/ Either way they are brushes. You can get better for…

Pros
  • The brushes come in a range of shapes, including fan, filbert, and liner brushes, allowing for more specific painting effects
Cons
  • Some brushes are too dense and make marks too heavy

Works for varying projects

Love the variety in sizes. The darker bristle brushes however shed very easily so I don't recommend those for large painting projects or those that require a lot of detail. The white & light brown ones are the best bet.

Pros
  • Paintbrushes
Cons
  • The handle texture is too rough and uncomfortable on the hands

Shedding bristles good for me

Not the absolute worst, but many of the brushes shed while I'm painting with them, which adds room for error. I'm a beginner and have a hard time keeping everything clean as it is, the stray hairs either get stuck in the paint or are really annoying to remove.

Pros
  • The brushes are extremely versatile and can be used across a wide variety of painting styles, encouraging experimentation and exploration
Cons
  • Not enough variety of sizes and styles of brushes

ok - not spectacular

Some of the brushes were unusable due to the quality of the brushes. Some were unusable due to damaged heel of the brush - crushed or crinkled. Additionally, there was some damage to the handles on some. About 2/3 of the brushes were usable. They were inexpensive . I did not ask for my money back. I use the ones that are usable frequently.

Pros
  • Each brush is individually wrapped to prevent damage and maintain their quality
Cons
  • The paintbrushes are too stiff and make blending difficult

pretty good i’d say so far.

i ordered these almost a week ago and i’ve used them to finish a project for school. the brushes do obviously what i want them to do which is paint. but one of the tiny blue paint brushes broke apart. i can still push it back together and all but yea, it broke off (as shown in one of the pictures). the big paint brushes i really like bc they are soft and it doesn’t really leave a bad streaky finish unlike some of the brushes. i used the sponge-like brushes for my mod-podge too, it doesn’t…

Pros
  • The brushes are ergonomically designed, so they're comfortable to use for extended periods of time without causing hand fatigue
Cons
  • Ferrule adhesive is poor, causing some brushes to fall apart after some use

Great brushes in my review

Quality is okay! Some glue here and there (cowmetic issues) but does not shed a lot. AFTER USE I WASHED THEM they don't become super clean but can be reused. Used then for an kids art party.

Pros
  • Good value for the price and they clean up quickly and easily.
Cons
  • A nice variety but the hairs fall out on to your painting, getting stuck and causing much frustration.

A Very Nice Set Of Brushes

This set of brushes is a great value and one that when we asked our Daughter if our art student Granddaughter would like these, she immediately responded, Yes. I was quite impressed by the number and variety of brushes in this set and would not hesitate to purchase again.

Pros
  • The set includes brushes that are perfect for use on works that call for both fine details and broader strokes, offering maximal flexibility
Cons
  • Brushes are prone to leaving brush marks and streaks

Brushes with dark bristles shed

Purchased brush set for a craft project, painting wooden decorative figures made from plywood. Set shipped quickly. The foam brushes and the ones with the orange-yellow bristles worked great. However… the dark bristled brushes soon became problematic… shedding bristles constantly while in use with the acrylic paints I was using. This was an issue with every single one of the dark bristled brushes.

Pros
  • The set is affordable compared to other high-end brush sets of comparable quality, so it's a great option for artists on a budget
Cons
  • The set doesn't have a small enough brush for precision work

Perfect for beginner

Perfect for our little artist. She’s 5 and art is everything to her. She uses these at least once a day and loves the different sizes.

Pros
  • Versatile - Perfect for all levels of artists from kids, to beginner, to student to professional. These acrylic brushes will meet almost any painter's needs!
Cons
  • The brushes are uncomfortable to hold for long periods

Great gift best in my review

Ordered for a friend after they told me they had one brush that broke, they started crying when they arrived, would buy for myself.

Pros
  • They don’t deserve five stars but they are ok for the price
Cons
  • Brushes lack precision for fine detail work
