I bought this airbrush as a secondary brush for metallics and clearcoat. I have used Chinese cheap airbrushes before and with a proper setup have been absolutely fine however my main airbrush is out of action at present due to waiting on a replacement seal kit.
However I have used this brush for some work on my current build. I have to say I am impressed for such a cheap airbrush.
Now there is always reviews and videos especially designed for beginners wanting to get in to airbrushing and while most users will say never buy cheap Chinese airbrushes only buy top branded airbrushes. This is not the case all airbrushes work exactly the same however to get the most out of cheaper brushes is to do minor preparation before using it for instance polishing the needle with either metal polish or toothpaste and applying ptfe tape to the hose fitting can make a big difference to performance.
This brush is a great buy especially if you are thinking about going into airbrushing.
Of course there are always pro's and cons.
Pro's
Easy to use and setup
Easy to clean especially with a removable bowl
Ajustable trigger
Steady flow of paint even without thinners
Cons
Smaller bowl so if you are painting large areas you will need to top up.
Alot lighter then standard airbrushes I personally prefer a bit more weight.
To sum up this is probably the best Chinese cheap brushes you can buy but remember most problems that people say about this brand is often down to human error not the tools so I hope this helps
