Posted these details on an other thread a few days ago -

There are no new brushes on the website yet. We will release details as soon as possible on the new site though.

There will be:

New Xtreme range - 3 brushes - weight 125g
New Xtreme Wide brushes
New Supreme range - 8 brushes - two widths - weight from 185g - with natural bristle hybrids
New Sill brushes - 6 brushes - two widths
New Super-Lite brushes - slight tweaks to a couple of these along with a new natural bristle version

Hoping they will be with us by end of February - just waiting on the tooling company now.

 :)

Alex, how do the natural bristles fare with hot water?

Good - The bristle lengths we have been testing have not exceeded 45mm which helps them keep their shape better. Also they are best used as inner bristles we have found in testing as the man-made bristles helps keeps them in place and in shape

A little heavier, a lot sturdier and a lot more durable.

For me gardiners poles are #1 hands down. But I've found that tecbuk brushes seem to scrub better and faster. I do prefer the cill brush in some occasions though.

I look forward to seeing the new brushes though.

I need a new pole soon so will wait and order one when the new brushes are out. :)

I've only ever used gardiner brushes poles etc so I only know them but I read a lot of reviews with people saying they're crap or not as good as tecbuk so sounds like that's the brush to beat from all the reviews or comments but for me I love me xtreme's for the lightness!
