The 3 series are the all rounders of the Rooney range. It will meet the needs of the soap and cream user and be fine for face lathering or making lather in a bowl. This best badger is a fair performer but as with many UK Rooneys there is better value elsewhere. Vulfix and Kent have brushes that will outperform for less than £55.

Hello Fido--which are the Vulfix and Kent brushes that you consider to outperform this Rooney for less? I'm looking for a great value and would appreciate your advice! Thanks -Jerry
ReplyDeleteI'll respond after some thought, tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteThe Kent BK4 is an excellent quality silvertip although considered a bit too floppy for use with hard soaps by some but not by others.
ReplyDeleteThe Kent H8 is a larger and very effective Best Badger.
The Vulfix 2234 Super Badger is also a fine all round brush equally good with soap and creams.
Personally, I prefer all these brushes to the 3/1 Best and they are all a few pounds/dollars less.
But none are better value or outperform New Forest brushes! If you want more information about those email me at NFB@padh.co.uk
