The situation is different with brushes made of silicone. Wonderfully easy cleaning, no way for the fix from any remnants and in case of doubt the cleaning in the dishwasher without any problems.
For me, this brush is just the right hardness of "bristles" so that everything can be distributed without stress and there ends up where it belongs. Grease the molds with rock hard butter is nonsense anyway, because there is no brush in the world will be able to slightly modify it.
The brush is very good in the hand, is sufficiently stable and has a beautiful deep red color. But this is of course a matter of taste - but I like it!
Highly recommended, especially for lovers of low-fat preparation. It is compared to swing the pan much less oil needed for the same result.
