    I purchased this for my daughter, so I don’t have any first-hand knowledge about the use of the product. From what I’ve observed of my daughter using it, though, she seems very satisfied and so does her horse. I chose this product because I don’t have much horse knowledge so I had to rely on the good reputation that this manufacturer has in the horse world. I also liked the fact that the this was a set and I didn’t have to figure out which grooming tools to purchase.

    I was drawn to the ergonomic shape of these brushes and the fact that it was presented in a nice neat package. Just goes to show that I didn’t have a clue about decent brushes.

    First thing you will wind up doing is throwing out the bag because you will probably get a real brush box. You are going to want to spend your time actually riding your horse rather than taking the time to try to put these back in their individual slots.

    Second, the hoofpick does not have a brush and having the brush on the other side of the hoofpick makes a big difference in being able to get the grunge out from under your horse’s shoes (assuming they are not barefoot).

    The synthetic bristles of the hardbrush do ok and I have to admit, they tend to stay cleaner than regular bristles. I finally cleaned all my brushes this past weekend because I was getting more dirt ON the horse than I was getting off and by far, the synthetic bristles had the least amount of dirt coming off.

    The main-pulling come is useless — I assume it isn’t really for main pulling because the teeth break off the first time you try to pull some main. So you can throw that out too.

    However, this brush set is durable and it feels good in your hand — though because of the rounded smooth shape, sometimes it will come flying out as you press harder against your horse.

    All in all, this set looks nice and you think “wow — the perfect brush set for my perfect new horse” (I have the blue since I have a gelding, though!). But as you actually start using them, you realize you are better off buying the brushes individually that you need and not going for the pretty package.

    I bought This set for my mare when I moved to Georgia three years ago. This set is wonderful! I really love it , the brushes are durable, easy to clean, and look very nice. I get compliments at my boarding barn and everyone thinks my horse is the most spoiled.

    The only thing that I didn’t like about this set, is when you hang it up while using it the brushes tend to fall out of the straps, so just keep an eye on them to make sure you don’t loose anything. Otherwise excellent product.

    Great gift for my horse loving daughter. Compact, self contained, perfect gift for someone that is also leading a horse, to the rail for grooming.

    This grooming kit is great! They’re the only brushes/comb/hoof pick I use. Nice carrying case—handy. Recommended.
