all this is great...but ironically just goes to show mans need for some reason to always try and invent a better mousetrap. Not putting down the rubber thingy,I thought it was neat...just sayin is all.

Hhahaha ! Fair enough.........You said Poop (snicker) .

OK, mine came a couple of days ago. Used it last night, with a 5/8 Genco Head Barber, and ended up rinsing in the sink like I always do. There's too much lather and whiskers left in the hollow of the blade. Maybe with another blade, the radius will work and clean out enough goo that I won't mind lifting the blade back to my face.

That's my experience; eager to hear any others.

I wipe mine on my arm. I don't have much room in my bathroom for any more trinkets.

Yes, it leaves some lather in the hollow so it cleans the wedges and 1/4 hollows pretty good. Personally I don't see much of a problem with a little left over. I see the drip bowl as a way to reduce the lather until the end. I like to do one rinse at the end.

+1. It's what I do, too. Also, as Zephyr does, I soak the sponge in hot water before use.

....i just received my drip bowl today from Royal Shave.....

.......i am a bit disappointed....it seems very flimsy....... i haven't used it yet, but i am thinking about just returning it....

...... the Carter and Bond Moroccan Cleaning Bowl seems a lot more substantial, but a lot more expensive......
