I'd read all of the questions and replys that Sam has generated on this forum and given all of the data (even taking into account Scotto's opinions) I'd just about convinced myself that a Chubby 2 in best was going to be my next brush. Imagine my surprise when this did not turn out to be Sam's dream brush. Well, it has found a new home and I can honestly say that after just a few uses this may turn out to be the last brush I ever use .
I know that statement is close to heretical around here. After all, I'm still 80+ brushes shy of Peter's collection. Even so, I absolutely love the way this dense brush lathers, the feel of it against my face, and it is the perfect size for use in my large Moss Scuttle. I've not noticed (or simply don't know enough to notice) any of the problems that have sometimes been associated with the Chubby. The handle fits my hand quite nicely, I don't find it too stiff or scrubby, it takes no more cream to build a nice lather than my Vulfix 2235 Super did (and the Chubby builds the lather quicker with better consistency). I guess another Simpsons sycophant has been born.
I have no intention of getting rid of my T&H turnback, but I do believe it will be relegated to the role it was purchased for...travel. I'll wait a week or two, but I think my Vulfix 2235 will probably be offered for sale. No sense in keeping something I'm unlikely to use.
Once again, thank you all for the information. I am forever in your debt.
