I purchased this airbrush after experimenting with a $20.00 airbrush from Harbor Freight. Let me start by saying what a big difference! So easy to use. The paint sprays great and my hand doesnt get tired. The most amazing part to me is Badger's customer service. I called them because there was a picture of a finger grip on the box which wasnt included. I called and spoke to a very nice lady on the phone who told me that the customer service person who could best help me was at lunch, but she would have him give me a call when he returned in about 15 minutes. As she finished telling me this,I heard a voice in the background say one moment I will help him. A gentleman picked up the phone and introduces himself as Ken Badger the owner of the company. Not only was he more than happy to address my issue, but he made sure that he answered any questions I had about airbrushing! I can tell you that Badger now has a customer for life. It is so rare to even find a company where a human being picks-up the phone let alone one where the owner of the company will help a customer with a simple customer service question.

Got this model 175(Crescendo) to replace my older 150(Professional), that I'd still be using had it not "disappeared". Just as versatile and easy to work withhave found that the bigger body is a better fit and I don't get the cramping I got when holding onto the smaller body of the 150 for awhile. A little heavier, but not really a noticeable issue to me. I've found through experience siphon feed works better for me than gravity feed if you tilt or move your airbrush around a little too much, and want a little ease in changing colors, plus you can see what you're doing. Just a little bigger than the 150.

I wanted to teach myself how to airbrush and wanted a brush that was high quality and solid for a new user and an experienced user. What I like best is that this brush is pretty easy to take apart, clean and put back together. I am very happy with my purchase. I've also learned that it takes a lot of practice to learn how to use the brush. But, with some practice I was able to make my daughter a t-shirt for Christmas.

I use this airbrush for teaching high school students.

First I teach them to take it apart and put it back together ...over and over...until they can do it quickly.

THEN...after every painting session they take it apartrinse it off --let the parts dry -and put it back together the next day.

With this teaching process, I have not had the problem of paint drying inside the gun and ruining the workings of the airbrush.

High school kids are not so good at cleaning the brushes...so this has helped me keep the airguns from being destroyed.(The auto collision teacher told me he loses many brushes because his students don't clean them properly and the paint dries inside the brush...thus making it nearly impossible to repair or use,however, he uses different type paint than I do.)

This airbrush works well. If an airbrush isn't kept clean, that is when problems start.

I explain the "take it apart---after every session---let it dry after cleaning and rinsing--and put it back together at the beginnng of the next painting session."

I have learned this clean-up technique after many years of airbrush painting and teaching airbrush.

I do not think that blowing cleaner through the brush is enough. The needle can still have paint on it. I have learned all of this the hard way.

Many students come to me...MANY>>> with ruined airbrushes because they allowed the paint to dry inside the brush without cleaning!They didn't realize what could happen...so I wrote this review for them.

This tool is too expensive to not clean and let be destroyed by a few seconds of laziness. Follow thruclean it and it will last for a long time.

It is easy to use---it helps if you have an airbrush artist show you how to take care of the brush and how to control and utilize it.

That would make your frustration level, as a new airbrush artist,so much easier to bear. As someone that has made many mistakes with airbrushes in the past, I know a little instruction goes a long long way.
