this is only the third brush that I have owned — so I don’t have much comparison. The brush is very effective in making a nice lather. It shed possibly 8-10 hairs during the first week of use. It did not have a strong smell — certainly not a wet dog smell. It is attractive and its weight feels good in the hand. BUT: when I was shaking off extra drops of water, it slipped from my hand and fell on the sink porcelain. This cracked the resin which I fixed with superglue. Because this is a damage that I caused, I did not return for credit or write a bad review. But this is a delicate object and not rugged. I think the single 2-3 mm thick screw that attaches the top portion to the bottom is simply not strong enough to offer much mechanical stability. The resin is too brittle to offer much support if you drop it.
But if you are careful when you use it, the brush itself is nearly as good as a more expensive $40-60 brush.
