Champion Brush Large Beastie Brush Multicolored 8.25in

This is my 3rd beastie brush. Love them! The plastic bristles and backing make them nearly indestructable and long-lived. Cannot bear to throw away my older beasties (with bent and worn bristles). They are used daily doing a variety of tasks (scrubbing feedtubs, bell boots, etc). The colors are fun too! Always a surprise to see which one Smartpak chooses for me. :)

I've been using these brushes for years and ordered a couple more from SmartPak. Being plastic, they last forever. They're good for getting through winter coats without being too harsh to use on face and legs. If your horse is especially mud-caked, however, you'll still need to curry first. They don't seem as useful for a closely clipped show coat - you could just use a soft brush for that unless your horse is a dirt ball. Since my horses live outside and grow winter coats, I have little need for those uber soft brushes. You can't choose the color, so that's a little bit of a bummer, though the more horses I acquire the less I care about the color of a grooming tool. :) After buying these from SmartPak, I found them cheaper at my local tack store, hence the 4-star value rating.

I bought this brush several weeks ago and absolutely love it!! I will definitely be purchasing more for each of my horses. They aren't too soft, but also aren't too firm and rough on the horse. Awesome product and awesome price! Although I do wish you could get a choice on color combo when ordering online.

Don't be fooled by the low price of these brushes they are a great brush! The store I used to work at sold Beastie brushes and I loved them. The bristles don't fall out and they don't make the dirt all static so it won't come out . They last for years and when they get all worn out they're great for cleaning the water tub . Beautiful colors and the handle is comfy comes in 2 sizes get both!

I'm picky about my, well everything horse related! This brush passed the test! I have some sensitive horses so I wanted something medium/soft, not so hard to irritate but firm enough to get dirt and dust. This is a fantastic little brush. Cool colors and just the right size. I'm ordering another one right now!

I lost my mare's brush and decided to get 2 Beastie brushes to be sent with the horses SmartPak pellets. They are perfect for brushing not to stiff and not to soft!

This is my favorite hard brush, I have one for every brush bag. It's firm enough to flick the dirt off well but not too hard for sensitive horses. Plus I like the fun colors!

This is a nice medium/hard brush, and looks to be quite durable. My daughter likes the bright colors as well. That said, if you are buying this for a child, or you have small hands I would recommend the mini Beastie brush instead. I ordered 1 of each, and to be honest I feel this 1 is rather large. I'd definitely buy this one again if the mini wasn't available, but for me the smaller size is better.

Fits well in my small hands and love the colors (I ordered 2). Soft, but still stiff enough to take off mud. Only negative is that the longer bristles hold static, so the fine dust brushes off, but then flies right back onto the coat. Have to follow up with a softer, shorter bristle brush to handle the fine stuff.

I enjoyed the bright colors and price. The bristles on the brush were stiff.
