Those AOS tubs are as cool as "The Usual Suspects"

[maxman]

I know some out there absolutely despise the AOS tubs.
They don't like the fact that there is that conical inner tub and think that it is deceiving.

Maybe it is? I don't know.
But what I do know is that you can get every last bit of cream out of that tub.

Genius I tells ya.

No scraping into awkward corners or anything.
say what you will about AOS, but those tubs are fantastic IMO.

The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist.

Line shamelessly stolen from The Usual Suspects.

+1 for any well-placed Usual Suspects reference.

One of my favorite movies.

LOL. More responses about the movie quote than the tubs.
I love it.
Great movie btw

I agree about the tubs, and never understood people claiming to be deceived, I mean, the quantity is listed on the label.

Sorry, Marc. Tell you what, I'll start a The Usual Suspects thread and we'll talk about AOS cream.

Well played sir. Well played indeed.

Never seen one of the tubs but that was a damn good movie!

 

[syngent]

ive only seen full tubs never the bottom part of it, anyone have a pic of said inner tube
btw loved that movie, and talking about it in here is like your well written thread as a sub plot to keep audiences in suspence, cant wait to see how this all comes together in the end lol

AOS works even better in a Kobayashi Porcelain mug.

I own 4 AOS tubs, and don't see any difference between them and 36 other tubs of shaving cream I own from other OEM's - I can get every last drop out of these tubs too, don't get this thread, please enlighten a stupid viking

Well it's not so much a problem with creams, that's true, but if you get to the harder cream/soap types then it is annoying.
Something like a Cella or a RazoRock King Louis.

Just have a look at the pic in the following reply.

Here is the inside of the tub. I had to destroy the outer tub to get to the inside.
Don't worry, the tub was one or two shaves away from being empty.
You can see the curved inner part of the tub.

Brilliant design!

How long will it be before someone suggest this is the perfect lather bowl?

I'll flip ya. Flip ya fo real!

 

[AABCDS]

Man those AoS tubs might make a perfect lather bowl. It's a shame it'll be 3017 before I finish one.

OK, It's official - I'm stupid

But why would you want to take the inner bowl apart from the outer bowl

I own 4 AOS tubs, Lavender, Ocean, Lemon & Sandalwood - and I can't see why I would want to take them apart .......
Only if the lid was stuck or something like that would it be necessary - I don't get it

Hmm, yeah when you pick up a tub of AOS you notice how huge it is. Now I now why. I'm not sure if it's misleading, but they could have just used a tub like TOBS or T&H and achieved the same thing.

I like AOS, but they don't get my money. For some reason, they give me the heebie-jeebies.
