Their Chubby 2 snthetic is the best synthetic I have tried.
Their regular Chubby 2&3 Super 3-Band badgers are very nice knots, as well.

I've been unlucky with Simpson. First brush I ever had was a Colonel x2L and I picked up a Wee Scot from Merz in Chicago while traveling there. Both shed like crazy and I threw them out. That said, I've always wanted a Chubby, so may take another run at the brand.
Over the years I've had a good number of Simpson brushes and only one was a shedder. Since that brush was less than a year old I sent it back to Simpsons and the fixed/replaced it without any problem and now that brush is just as good as the others.

So, yes, I am encouraging you to give them another try!

Good choice. Duke 3 in best is also amazing. If you find the chubby too scritchy in best it’s be good to try too.
