Guys I know one of the reasons everyone enjoys using a scuttle (besides the warm lather) is that the slight ridges in the bowl help make incredible lather when compared to a smooth bowl. Well I was at Target today and saw this bowl. I looked a bit harder and the ridges you see in the picture, while slight, are actually present throughout, not just glossed over smooth, so I bought a 2-pack (they only have the 4-pack online) for $12.99 and they work great - plus I have a backup. Just thought I'd share.
