Kent CP6 Clothes Brush. 100% Natural Black & White Boar Bristle Lint Remover Especially for Cashmere, Wool and Silk for Keeping Delicate Fabrics Free from Fibres, Fluff and Pet Hair. Made in England

I bought this about a year ago to help preserve my cashmere sweaters. I now use it on all sweaters and the difference I how they look is amazing. I had never used a clothes brush before. Brushing your sweaters after wearing before putting away helps keep the piling to a minimum and your sweaters look like they have just been cleaned. I wish I had known this years before. I did research before buying and this brand is voted the best. This is a perfect gift for family and friends. I plan on looking at other brushes this brand has for coats.

Every time you wash cashmere or fine wool, you lose a little bit of it down the drains.Dry Cleaning is terrible for it, and incredibly expensive. Just do what every English Butler did for generations and brush it with a really good brush. Not only do you get the dust out of it and if you use a solution of distilled water and a tiny bit of white ammonia, you can get most stains off it. The brushing raises the nap and extends the life of the garment.

When I got recommended this from my friend, I thought why I should invest quite a big money to clothes brush.After using this for cashmere sweaters, I noticed that I should have bought this earlier!Only 1 minute of brushing, my sweater looks better!MUST-HAVE item at home!

Kent brushes are a marvel--particularly the wooden-handled hand-assembled models. I have Kent hairbrushes, regular garment brushes, a hat brush, and now this model that is designed particularly for cashmere items of clothing. All of these brushes are great. Each one is designed and constructed of specific materials that are intended for particular tasks. Sure, there are one-brush-does-it-all brushes in this world, and lots of them do a decent job of a variety of tasks, but from experience I am willing to bet that the Kent brushes do a better job at any of the particular tasks for which they are designed than can any of the all-purpose brushes. Someone might find this to be a matter of no importance, but anyone who likes to have the right tool for the specific job to be done will appreciate these Kent brushes immensely. And, in fact, the particular brush to which this review is related does an excellent job with all kinds items of cashmere clothing.Moreover, along with the high-quailty design and construction of Kent brushes, the materials of which they are all made are excellent. A Kent brush is meant to last a lifetime, and perhaps even to become an heirloom, since just one person may not be able to wear out one of these brushes in a lifetime.And, finally, on some sites devoted to high-end, high-quailty speciality items, including clothes brushes, one can find very nice, probably very effective, brushes for particular kinds of clothing. In my observation, these regularly cost three or four times what this Kent brushes cost. That is not to say that the Kent brush is inexpensive, it's not. But, in the larger world of such brushes, the quality and the price of the Kent brush are certainly remarkable.

This brush is well constructed, built to last, and feels good in the hand, so it is a pleasure to use, accomplishing quickly and easily what it was designed for: gentle and effective grooming care of suits and coats (meaning no damage to the fabric, even cashmere, while lint, strings, surface dirt, etcetera, are removed). I cannot envision a need for "sticky roller" clothes brushes after getting the Kent CP6 Clothes brush, which does the job with aplomb.Although the price may seem steep at first glance, after years of use, your hiers will likely inherit this brush and continue to use it for decades (assuming anyone is still wearing suits by then, although it is well suited for maintaining other clothing as well) while you likely would have gone through dozens of the "sticky roller" brushes in the mean time with less satisfying results, or cheaper imitation brushes would have fallen apart, shedding bristles, leaving behind more of what you were trying to remove in the first place.The rating is for the brush itself. Still disappointed that I paid for Two Day UPS delivery and instead the item was shipped UPS Ground with a four day delivery, meaning I did not have it to use to get ready for a particular weekend event, having to make do with an inferior "sticky roller" brush instead.Fortunately that will not be an issue going forward.

This is wonderfully crafted brush. Not only that, but it works just as you would hope. It removes lint, dust, and other particles from clothing. However, function is not all this brush is intended to serve for.Sure, its not the cheapest iteration of such a device, but thats not why you even arrived here to read this review. There are buyers who want quality, who want the best, and who want something that will make good on its quality promise, will last many years and will be well crafted. And then there are Walmart shoppers.My philosophy is to "buy the best, cry once". If you buy cheap, then you get cheap. I tend to feel that the better quality things I buy, my quality of life benefits to the same degree. Things work better, last longer, and I thoroughly take joy out of the fruits of my labor.I can attest that I get every dollar's worth of value out of this brush. In form, function, aesthetics, and supporting the quality promise and history of a reputable company. I know it will last to pass on to my son and grandson some day.

The product page clearly (and repeatedly) advertises that the brush is 100% boar bristles. In reality, the brush sent is identical in appearance but has nylon bristles. If you look closely in my photos you will see "CP6 bristle blend" on the received brush, which is different from that advertised on the product page. Having natural boar bristles is generally considered superior to synthetic bristles and receiving a product which is otherwise identical feels deceptive. I worry a less discerning customer may not have noticed this change and would have paid a premium for an inferior product. For shame.
