Chris ChristensenMark VI Curved Slicker Dog Brush, Groom Like a Professinal, Stainless Steel Pins, Lightweight Beech Wood Body, Ground and Polished Tips, Medium

This was recommended to me by a highly knowledgeable Maine Coon breeder. I have one of her beloved cats, and brushing them daily is a must. This brush really helps with that. I know the steep price may seem like a turn off, but it’s made with high quality materials. I know I’ll get years of use from it, and the Maine Coon loves being brushed with it. No static happens, with no shocks in her fur. It glides easy through her long fur, with virtually no snagging. She actually enjoys being brushed. It’s worth the investment for your long haired furry friend.

Out of all the slicker brushes I’ve tried and I’ve tried several, this is still my go to for almost all coat types. I’m a groomer. The ends of the bristles are polished and that’s what makes a huge difference. Fluffier fluff drying results in shorter amount of time. On the softer side but sturdy enough for dematting. Pricier but worth it. With proper care it lasts for years, and that’s using it every day.

I have the Christian baby slicker and loooove it! Great for mats on my Shih Tzu. However, I wanted a more gentle brush to use for everyday. This is a great solid brush. There IS a difference between pin brushes just like the slickers. (I used it on my thin, easily matted hair and it didn’t pull anything out. I turned around and ordered one for me)!

I originally bought this brush to use on my poodle but have been using it for my own hair. It works really well, my hair is fine and has static electricity when I brush it with a bristle brush, I don't get static electricity when I use this. Over the years I have had friends that were curious about my brush and have also purchased this pin brush to use. The great thing about it is, it doesn't have 'knobs' on the end of it to pull the hair. The first brush I bought is 15 years old and other than the gold lettering on the handle rubbing off from daily use, it's just like brand new.The only reason I bought another one is that I thought I lost it so I bought another. Of course a week later, I found my original brush and now I have 2, which is not a bad thing

I’ve had many inexpensive pin brushes in the past, but while this high quality brush is pricey, it’s worth it. I’ve been using it for 4-5 months now and the pins stay put and don’t sink into the brush or fall out. The ends are soft and rounded without those balls that break off, and it’s comfortable in my hand. It’s painful to pay this much for dog brushes, but with a dog that needs a lot of coat care It’s worth every penny. I highly recommend.

This particular pin brush is my cat's favorite and I have no idea why. It is comfortable in the hand and I have 2 blown thumb joints and very painful wrists. But when I brush her, her butt goes in the air and she'll sit forever while I use it. I do find it extremely helpful for mats and she's one of the hairiest cats we've ever had. I've never been fond of the plastic cheapo pin brushes but I trust things made in Germany very much after spending 8 years there. I highly recommend this brush and others of this line.

Chris Christensen makes quality brushes. I have used them for years and find that they hold up well. This brush does not go through my shelties cost as easily as expected.

My groomer recommended this brush to me. My dog has had issues with matting in the past, but this brush has really helped to prevent the issue from recurring. Recommend.
