Item Description
Price: As stated, the price absolutely cannot be beat for the quality of the knot. I thought my Rooney in Super was excellent, but this blows it out of the water in my opinion.
Quality: The brush is nice and solid, but mine has lost quite a few hairs over the first few latherings. We will see if that calms down, but it has subsided noticeably from the fist run so that boosts confidence.
Density/Stiffness/Softness: While not as dense as my Rooney, somehow the Ehsan actually feels just as dense on the face. I think the stiffness of the knot has a lot to do with that. The knot had tons of backbone but the tips, despite feeling very scritchy dry, are incredibly soft once on the face.
Ergonomics: I was a little worried about the handle design as I like smaller handles, but the fact that the brush was $50 cheaper than the Chubby 1 tipped the balance. Turns out the longer handle works wonders in the larger deeper bowl I use. The bulb knot is also quite nice as I use a combination of face lathering and painting.
Latherability: The lather really explodes out of this brush. I have found that I don't need to shake it as much as the Rooney to get the right water ratio, but every brush is a little different here. As an added bonus, the flowthrough is excellent so it isn't a horrible lather hog.
