Works well enough, though materials are basic.
The spring clip which grasps the shaving brush handle is spaced narrowly; it will not clamp around the bristle-base, as I expected at first, but it works. Though the bowl is small and plastic, not ceramic, the size is actually better as it doesn't waste shaving soap as did a wider wooden soap bowl I had previously.  The smaller diameter helps load the brush well with soap without wastefully spreading it out all over a wider surface.  I had purchased a special handmade soap bar, which I cut into smaller pieces to fill the bottom of the bowl.  It all works well and good for the price.<br />I only wish it came from a USA maker, not China.
