I've got five good brushes and really don't need another. I've never owned a Simpson and have been looking at the Chubby 2 in Best or Super. I'm looking at a limited edition version Simpsons is selling directly (CH2, Super, Butterscotch) which would cost me about the same price shipped directly from Simpsons as the same version in the ivory handle sold stateside. My concern is shedding. I've read what Simpsons has to say about it and I've experienced some shedding in other brushes I own but only a few years and then, after a time using them, an occasional stray. Simpsons seems to have a fair number of brushes, based on all the reviews here and elsewhere that are, shall we say disappointing when it comes to ongoing shedding, and spending upwards of $250 for a brush that doesn't meet quality expectations would not be a good thing. I guess I'm really looking for feedback on QUALITY, not performance. All thoughts and opinions appreciated. Please don't suggest something else as the Chubby is a specific interest and I could easily pass on it altogether as I like what I've got already. Just always had an interest in this specific brush line.
Shipped cost from Simpson is a little less than $240
