Another "help me pick a brush" thread ;p

I've looked through the forums and I've found some of the answers I'm looking for, but I still need some help :blush:



Let me start off with the fact that I currently prefer to bowl lather.



I want to buy a quality brush from one of the following manufacturers:

• Simpson


• Rooney


• Thater


• Kent

My budget tops out at $200 and the brush doesn't "have" to be a silver tip.



In your opinion, which one would be the best for bowl lathering and able to be equally effective using soap or cream?



Thanks in advance for any advice.
