    Peter is absolutely right quality brushes cost real money and no professional painter would use that product.

      This type of brush in the industry is what we call a one time throw away or a dust brush before our real brushes get used.

      You are correct.
      But a professional painter with 20 brushes may keep this a a spare for oil or alcohol paints. It is however perfect for the home owner who would buy anything

      Very true but you make those heads come off with a button press. Have all those heads mounted in a special clip the can attach to a paint tray and a can. Then you have a product.

      Not really.For someone who is doing professional painting,they can easily buy multiple handles for how many brushes they need to use at the same time.Its a one time investment

      Peter is just wrong because he's rich and does nothing himself.
      I do construction and I have a compact drill, 2 impact drivers, 3 regular sized drills, a right angle drill and a half inch chuck drill meant for boring bits. Its something like $2500 total. Its cheaper for me time-wise to buy an extra $200 driver if I have to constantly go between a cross-tip driver bit and a square-tip driver bit.
      No one who was DIY'ing on a budget would buy that many tools. That's why you have quick-change bits that kinda suck but do the job.

    This is like selling shoelaces that you can use with all your shoes, and claiming that you’re saving money, because you don’t need separate shoelaces for all your shoes. True, but the shoelaces are not the expensive part of the shoes. So in return for saving these 50 p., you have to rethread your shoes every time you change them. And in their product, even the 50 p. saving is questionable at best, since the head has to be more expensive when they add the mounting mechanism. I am amazed any dragon even considered it.

    I've done construction for almost 30 years now. This might work for weekend warriors or the DIY type, but this would never last in a professional construction setting. Main issues being durability, wasted time changing heads, and even more cleanup.

      not sure it’s much good for the DIY market either though tbh…if the different heads snapped on and off with the press of a button and was near instant then possibly it would have a chance but the unscrewing is just annoying, inconvenient and time-wasting not to mention that most scraper/brush heads would have paint or plaster etc on them which would likely get all over your hands. Just seems to be fixing a problem that no-one has and more trouble than it’s worth 🤷‍♀️

    I also feel that the diameter of each holder is different for each size of brush, so much so that the professional painters who were earlier trained and accustomed to the joint handle-brush setup won't see a point to resort to these separate handle and brush head.
    DIY enthusiasts would want to emulate the perfection of professional painters, and hence they won't want the separate handle and brush head either
