Chris Christensen Big K Dog Slicker Brush for Dogs (Goldendoodles, Labradoodles, Poodles), Groom Like a Professional, Fluff Detangle Style, Saves Time Energy, Black, Large

When I first saw the brush on a grooming YouTuber channel (Girl with the Dogs), I looked this up and I was astounded by the price tag. Was this made of gold? Was it self cleaning? Did it come with a groomer who used it? I scoffed and moved along.A few months ago, I rescued a Goldendoodle with the thickest, curliest fur. On top of that, I already had a bigger Goldendoodle with coarse, thick hair. I’ve bought five brushes and all of them had a problem - weak bristles, handle discomfort, difficult cleaning, etc.I finally caved and bought this brush. I now see why it’s preferred by groomers and the price tag. The quality is awesome. Bristles are strong and flexible and do not warp, the handle is comfortable, and the brush itself has some heft to it so you don’t have to put more effort into getting the brush through the fur. My fiancé scoffed and said, “you bought a 75 dollar brush - wtf??? This better work.” He usually brushes them as his quality time the dogs and he immediately ate his words. He was impressed; with other brushes he would have to make several passes in different directions to get somewhere. This brush made immense progress in two swipes. He was shocked and the best part is that both my dogs love this and they were clamoring for their turn. It removed a good amount of undercoat, loose fur, debris from the dog park, and it left their coats super smooth and soft to the touch.If you have Doodles, go get this brush. Game changer.

I have a 100lb Black Russian Terrier with a thick, long double coat—basically a walking, barking, shaggy black bear. Brushing her is a full-time job, and I used to think my $20 slicker brush was doing okay. Then I saw this brush. I balked at the price and thought, How much better could it really be?Answer: A LOT better.This brush is hands-down the best slicker I’ve ever used. It glides through mats that used to require a full-on wrestling match with a dematting comb. It's way more gentle, and instead of leaving my dog's coat looking like she lost a fight with a static balloon, it comes out soft, fluffy, and show-dog ready.Durability? The brush itself is holding up like a champ, though the rubberized coating is starting to peel in one spot. But honestly, if that's the extent of the wear with near daily use, that’s saying something.Bottom line: If you have a fluffy beast, do yourself (and your dog) a favor—get this brush. Your arms, your sanity, and your dog's luxurious coat will thank you.

If your poodle has any length to her/his hair then you need the black handled one. Can get away with only brushing a couple times a week with this brush. Not sure about the ergonomically correct handle as I have arthritis in my hands and sometimes it's hard for me to hold onto. Removes tangles great though. Would recommend and have bought a second so I have one upstairs and one downstairs. Expensive but worth the money.

Worth the price. Good quality. Works great in my giant schnauzer

I’ve been a loyal user of the Chris Christensen Big G slicker brush for the last five years, and I absolutely loved it for grooming my dogs. It always did a fantastic job. However, I recently decided to try out the Big K slicker brush, and wow, it’s been a game changer! The Big K takes everything I appreciated about the Big G to the next level. Its design is superb, making grooming sessions even easier and more efficient, especially for managing mats and tangles. The brush’s performance is impeccable, smoothing out fur with minimal effort and without causing any discomfort to my dogs. I honestly wish I had picked up the Big K first; it has significantly improved our grooming routine. For anyone on the fence, I highly recommend trying out the Big K slicker brush. It’s a stellar tool that any pet owner would be thrilled to have!

I hesitated purchasing such expensive brush, plus so many types to choose from. But this is a uniquely effective brush that works very well on my double coat American Eskimo (Spitz). Really good for defatting but not pulling so hard it bothers her.

I have two English Cocker Spaniels that need frequent grooming to keep them from getting matted. This brush was recommended to me for better comfort level (my dogs hate being brushed).I can’t say that this brush has made my dogs any more comfortable than with other slickers. They still hate the grooming.The process is quicker with this brush, though. The long spines reach deeper into the fur, and I have less work to do separating out layers in their chest and legs. It is easy to clean the hair off with a simple swipe.I hear from friends that the pins on these start to fall out pretty quickly, something you wouldn’t expect from a brush at this price point. Mine is good so far, but I’ll update in a few months on how it holds up.

I have used the brush for three months now and although the price tag is high, I am glad I bought it, it's worth it. It works incredibly well for my double coated Samoyed. He hates brushing, but this brush he can tolerate. It is very efficient at getting through the think undercoat.The brush is well made and it still looks like on the first day of use, so great quality.
