Are the balls at the ends of the nylon bristles "painted" on, or molded as part of the actual bristle? Do they fall off?

The tips are molded as part of the actual bristle. They don't fall off. The brush holds up very well--we've had three of them over the years and are very pleased with the quality and durability.

Whether or not the balls at the end are painted - I really don't know. However, the balls do not fall off.

Molded on, I have had 2 for several years and the balls are still on, good brushes

I'm not sure what bristles are made of, but they are soft. I like mine. I don't use the other attachments, just the brush one and I love it.

Slide them into place and let them dry. they will still fall off if you mess with them. I am considering using a dab of glue .

The bristles are short and hard. They are not long and soft and pliable like on a hair brush. They are more like the teeth on a comb, but shorter. A whole row of bristles can come out. It's no big deal. You just turn the barrel until you find the slot that the row fits in and slide it back in.

I too was expecting wooden bristles, but they're not. They're plastic! The base of the brush is beautiful wood, but I was hoping for a solution to the static electricity I get from plastic brushes. Oh, well. Good luck to you.

The bristles are nylon. The brushes are too large for my intended use (clean hummingbird feeders), but at that price, I figured I could find another use for them.

I haven't measured the bristles, so I can't answer exactly, but they are about 1/2 inch long. This brush is a bunch too stiff to vacuum a popcorn textured ceiling. I also have that type of ceiling in my home, and I haven't found a brush that is soft enough to vacuum it. The only way that I have managed to remove the 'dust-webs' from it is by waving the tube (without any brush on it) around in the general area of the web. That will usually suck them off it. Good luck!

Jessica, I have two copies of this brush, and there are two kinds of bristles--the straight up kind next to the bulb-on-the-end kind. I'm going to guess here and say both are synthetic. I love the brush--and I have thick, curly, fine hair, the kind that would show trouble if this brush was being rough on it.

The brushes I have ordered seem to vibrate properly. The outer white ring of bristles does not vibrate; all the others (inside the outer white ring) vibrate.

The brushes are not removable. The bristles are stiff with smooth tips. Cool tip end to hold while styling.

Yes, they do come off so the rod can be inserted through the pole. This product works perfectly. Someone said they glued the ends on but I don't as I hang seasonal things fromthe cross-rod. I haven't had any problem with the end caps coming off and I'vehad mine for over a year.

Well the hairs on the brush will fall out definitely. But I've had mine for a few weeks now and everything else seems perfect.

The attachments are made to be a part of the handle. For the brush attachment, you just have to make sure it's straight before putting it in its spot (it rotates 360). I haven't had an issue with the attachments.falling off, but I suppose its all in how you handle the vacuum.

We have numerous quality control procedures in place to remove brushes with loose bristles before they ever reach you the customer. We have never had a report from one of our customers yet about their bristles falling out. With that said, it is always important to take a quick look to make sure no bristles fell out no matter what type of brush you are using.

No problems with the brush at all. My husband has been thrilled with it. No bristles have fallen out and the wood has a nice satin finish to the wood. A great brush! Hope this helps. :)
