Beats the old paint brush things. No hairs to fall into food, doesn't fall apart from the handle. I gave one to a friend to try in his restaurant and they all liked it so much they are ordering more. The softness and round ends let you egg wash baking products like bread with out knocking them down and the high heat proof is very important and it is heat proof. No problem on home pans or restaurant commercial grills.

I've tried a few different silicone brushes and I really like this kaiser a lot. The bristles are thinner and closer together then other brands so it really holds a lot of sauce. They are also more flexable because they are longer. Super brush and very easy clean up by hand or just toss in the dish washer. If you want a great brush for brushing milk or egg on pastry try the smaller mario batalli one, the bristles on that one are flat and each one is ridged great for applying liguids. But if you are looking for an excellent basing/barbq brush get this one, it's really super! Great gift idea too.

Well-made, big, heat resistant, but hard to wash off the extra-pungent barbeque sauce odor!

I'm amazed at how well this works. I should have been using these for years. Some have complained it doesn't hold as much as a boar bristle brush. I think it does but you need to use it differently. This brush needs to be dipped deeply to take on a good load. Since it doesn't have a ferrule like a bristle brush it's not a problem to dip the bristles all the way to the top. It is very gentle. I brush bagettes with an egg wash and it's gentle enough for that. Cleans beautifully in the dishwasher and is heat resistant enough to stir melting butter and hot sauces on the stove. It's just great. This one is big enough to use on a gas grill too and it won't melt or stick. It also doesn't take a set like a bristle brush. I will be buying more of these.

The Extra Large Kaiser KaiserFlex Silicone Grill Basting Brush is great for applying sauce on grilled BBQ Chicken. We have always used a mop style applicator but the greasy sauce was so hard to clean up and sometime, the metal bands around the mop would rust. We would use if a few times, but not more than 3 before we had to purchase a new mop. The silicone brush washes up beautifully in the dishwasher. I own 3 or 4 different sizes and highly recommend them.

The brush head itself is just the size I was looking for in a barbeque brush and works fine. The handle is also the right length. However, I could not tell from the picture that the handle is metal, not solid. Using a handle that is essentially a piece of thick wire bent in two feels uncomfortable and unbalanced in your hand. It also makes unwieldy to use. If I had known the handle was actually a metal loop instead of a solid material, I would have never purchased it. Because I like the brush head, I just wrapped the handle in duct tape. Not a perfect fix, but better than the original design of the handle.
