## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use this to clean my grill?**
A: Dear Ron, This is a Professional Pet Grooming Brush for use on Dogs and Cats. At $55 plus shipping it would be kind of expensive to purchase for cleaning your grill. It is not made to clean grills even though you could probably use it as such. If you are in the market for a grill cleaner I would suggest you put Grill Cleaning Brush in the Amazon search engine. This brush is not guaranteed when used inconsistent with it's directions so it would be a poor choice for cleaning your grill. Best Regards Groomers Helper

**Q: Is this red one the correct style for dematting?**
A: Yes Red for the Mat Zapper. You may want to see the Red/Purple that is the Mat Zapper with the Firm Finish Brush together two brushes in one. First you demat then you finish.

**Q: The description refers to other brush. can you tell me the difference between les pooch snd your demattimg zapper. is it also stainless any warranty?**
A: Dear Jackie, ActiVet is the original Inventor and Manufacturer of that other companies brush. They private labeled for them for many years. I will not use their name as we do not want any problems from them. I will include these excerpts from Activet's explanation. "In the USA the company Les poochs offered its services as a self-proclaimed "innovator in the dog grooming market" to assist with the marketing of the ActiVet brushes. However, Les poochs insisted on marketing the products under its own name (Les poochs), which appeared to make sense at the time, considering the degree of name recognition enjoyed by the brand over many years. At the time, Les poochs had no brushes in its range at all - neither did it have any experience, nor was the company known for its expertise with brushes. Les poochs and Savoir Vivre Int. GmbH decided to jointly market the Les poochs care shampoos and cosmetic products - previously unknown in Europe - in parallel (and consequently also the ActiVet brushes) under the Les poochs name. Savoir Vivre was to service the European area with the Les poochs cosmetic range. The ActiVet brand receded into the background in favour of the joint venture. As is so often the case in life, the "partners" separated (Les poochs and Savoir Vivre int. GmbH) in 2013. Following the banking crisis (2009), Savoir Vivre considered itself incapable of continuing to support the hard-hit Les poochs in the USA with further trade credit. Furthermore, the already slow deliveries of the Les poochs cosmetic products were rapidly deteriorating. Les poochs attempted to block the original ActiVet products from the USA by issuing legal proceedings, but ActiVet was successfully able to counter such action.As the "the original flexible-head German Brush", ActiVet was able to absorb at least some of the losses sustained, and remains unchallenged when its depth of expertise, range and quality are considered together."The other company is now making and marketing their own brushes which look the same but there is no comparison. If you want the original German Flex Head brushes that you were used to then this is the brush. The pins are blunted German Stainless Steel and can be replaced if needed. The warranty is 30 days for any defects in craftsmanship. However, that said we always stand behind our products and take any issues seriously.

    I have only used this a couple times but it seems to work pretty good. It does get all those tangles out ...

I was originally looking for the Les Poochs Matt Zapper but was unable to find one in stock anywhere.. and didn't want to buy directly from them.  This was the "orginal" or knock off or whatever you call it from the LP Zapper.  I have only used this a couple times but it seems to work pretty good.  It does get all those tangles out which saves time and stress on dog.  I haven't used it on severe matts that are big and close to skin yet but will be updating that soon.In conclusion:  Works good and will save you time with the de-matting rakes, tools and conditioners .. Worth the price??  Maybe.  Depends how passionate you are as a groomer.  I am the kind of groomer that wants to get in and out the door ASAP.  Would recommend to Pet Parents whose dogs tangle a lot.. Just use carefully and correctly.  Especially those parents who hate getting their dogs shaved at groomers cause they're always matted.  This will help avoid that.  (if you brush the entire dog including ears, face and tail)

    Worth It
  

*by A***P on Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2018*

This is my go-to brush for dematting ears and tails when the only alternative would be to shave them. Depending on your patience, this brush can work through every mat every time. I use it on multiple dogs every day for work, and it lasted a good three years before I felt like replacing it. This is especially good for dogs who hate the usual dematter and has saved me from getting bitten by at least a dozen schnauzers with matted legs and skirts. Doesn't last as long as Les Pooches, but works just as well and is less expensive.

    Good Quality
  

*by P***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2018*

This brush works very well with my Shetland Sheepdog. I use it with Quicker Slicker to work on his undercoat. My dog smells much better and his skin is in better shape. I've noticed less dander and less undercoat coming out with each use. This brush is very firm. I purchased a similar, less expensive brush, but it is too flexible to work my dog's undercoat.
