I finally stopped buying cheap paint brushes, here's what happened

For years I was buying those $2 packs of brushes at the hardware store thinking I was saving money. Then I had a big trim job on a 1920s house in Denver where every window had like 8 layers of old paint. I spent $18 on one good angled sash brush from Purdy and it cut my time in half because I wasn't fighting with bristles coming loose. Has anyone else noticed a big difference moving up to nicer brushes or am I just getting picky?

I read that pros swear by Purdy for that reason and it's TRUE because those cheap bristles are a disaster.

You're right, richardh44. Cheap brushes shed like crazy. Purdy is the way.
