by Amazon5 Blade Men's Razor With 15 Refills

This razor system is fantastic, I have tried all types of on market brands some such as Gillette fusion 5, The Amazon 5 Blade system is better than all others currently on the market in my opinion.Quality of shave, weight and the move able head are outstanding.Thanks to Amazon for providing a quality product at a reasonable price.

Has you can see it cut bit of the card to make a small box to keep the razor inside with the blades stops water/steam from the bathroom, we brought 2 sets one for myself and one for my wife, for 35 yrs i always got the leading brand start with "G mach3" but i needed new handle as well has blades so i was thinking why not try these here is some info of what i think and using it for bit of time.1st i am a light shaver keep it clean cut 99% time.1st cut handle felt big over the "G mach3" which are narrow, the cut did not go well but i looked at the line of the blades and head to the "mach3" ones and found i need to tilt it bit more which i did on the 2nd cut and it was a much smoother cut.Cost of living these are a good buy.Well built steel-metal with rubber over it.Blade lifespan on my 3rd cut felt it pulling on the hair/skin.Razor blade head tilt, twist etc for me i found it hard to use but this is the 1st of this kind.Easy to clip the blades in and out.Trim cutter on the top of the razor "nearly cut my finger on it" forgot it was there, 1st time user with trim.My mrs said it nice to use on her legs, and only used it twice with no problems.She also picked up on the handle been thicker than the Mach 3 but did not find a problem using it.Would i buy again Yes, due to cost of living.Only downside for me is the lifespan of the blades, where the "Mach3" lasts weeks/months.Not sure what these be like on thick beard.

Not bad at all. Great for speedy shave. So far I got 2 shaves and think I can get a 3rd shave out of one cartridge of blades.Worth giving it a go.

Brilliant and cost effective for my maybe twice a week shaved masculine face. Have used these for a few years now. No need to split hairs over personal opinions, just slice them at the root.

First UseI was dubious about the razor, as I usually end up with nicks and cuts with cheap razors.I tried Harry's and King of Shaves, again these are expensive by comparsion.I am not about to get into a subscription model, as you end up forgetting about the subscription and end up buying more blades than needed.My usual razar is Gillette Fusion, but the blades are getting expensive.I had a clean shave without nicks or cuts. My intial observation is that the handle is very light and not weighted as well as the Gillette handle and these blades do to not fit the Gillette fusion handle. The shave is not as smooth either.I usually buy a bulk pack ie, 10 blades ( but comes with a handle). the cost has gone up from about £18.00 to £28.00 for these.I bought 16 blades at a reasonable price (came with handle), so even if the 16 blades last as long as the Gillette 10 blades, I am still savingYou may not think this is saving much, but over the course of time, this is quite a saving.I still prefer my Gillette fusion, but unless they drop there prices I am sticking with these Amazon own brand.Second UseI grew my stubble for a few days, as i normally do.I tried a side by side comparison on using both these blades and my usual fusion blades.Amazon blades - Second useFusion blades - 5th or 6th useStill No nicks or cuts , but you can really real the difference.The Amazon blades pull and feel rough over the face.By comparison the Fusion blades glide over the face.Not sure the Amazon blades will give same number of shaves per blade.I dont think Amazon blades are anywhere near the quality of the Gillette blades.

The razors are just as good as razors from Gillette. Wilkinson etc. but are more than half the price.No brainer which to order.Make sure you order with a handle as Gillette handle is not compatible with Amazon razors.

Well I thought I would give this razor a try as it seemed a good deal and worked out considerably cheaper than the Gillette blades I have used for years. There was my mistake. Cheaper almost always isn't better and this is one more example proving this. I'm a middle aged Man ( am I allowed to say that I'm a Male?) I have been shaving for more years than I want to remember, so I kind of have a bit of experience of doing this shaving malarkey.My usual routine is only shave when the Mrs is at home, so when she is away for a few days I don't shave. Nor do I undertake many other mundane tasks like cleaning or doing the washing up... I slob out and let the bristles grow for a few days.The usual 4 days of growth are firstly met with my Panasonic trimmer that reduces the bristle to a couple of millimetres followed by a shower and then a shave using Gillette Mach 3 blades. Job done, house cleaned, happy Mrs.However on this occasion and using the newly purchased razors things didn't go well. I could tell the blades were not the same quality a the usuals on the first stroke. The downward stroke from the ear to the jaw... It rasped... and that was downward! Ok, bad blade I thought and after fumbling for about 5 mins to get a new blade fitted I resumed. Nope, this was no better. I could feel it dragging and yanking at the hairs. Ok so lets wash off the foam and get some hot water and new foam applied. This was still no better and in fact it was starting to become painful. Upward strokes were just horrendous and despite my best efforts I was left with the worst shaving rash I have ever had in my life. The skin around my chin looked like a very bad case of eczema and I had to apply some of the Mrs facial cream just to cool it down.Well the whole lot has been given to the good lady. Her leg hairs are like silk anyway so she now has a lifetime supply of razors.Me? I'm back to Gillette, sod the cost! The Mrs and my face thank me!
